    In the last pic i have tried to capture a dark 'stain' thats on the guitar. Hardly noticable but dont want to use anything to try and get it out, might even be a stain on the actual wood. Anyway, as per my other sale ill have to hold off on trades as my amp needs a service and money is a bit snug at the mo. Any questions or requests for specific photo's please ask. Thanks, P.S previously mentioned Newcastle, that trip was done so its collection from Manchester im afraid

    Finally got pics up. Any questions please fire away. Any particular photo's you require PM me and ill email them. Thanks, P.S due to my valve amp deciding it wants a service/repair im holding fire on the trades for now

    Ive been loving the sound from my new rig recently. Its an old Sound City B120 valve head through a Fender bassman 2x15. Love the sound im getting but for some reason im gassing after the Marshall 2x15 ive seen for sale on here and really want to try it with a VBA400. Thing is i really DONT need it, i have a lovely rig that sounds great and just the right size. Is there a cure for un-needed GAS other than buying? Someone talk me round, my rig is fine and i dont need to change!

    Hope so mate. With 6 EL34's a full set isnt cheap. To be honest i did open it up briefly when i got it and by the looks of it that was the first time it was ever opened. A good 40 years (ish) worth of dust n grime. So at the very least a service is needed. Just emailed dave Lund, has very good recommendations on here and he is very local. Fingers crossed its something simple.

    Gonna have to book mine into a techs. It has developed a load of intermittant crackling. Sounds like when you turn a switch that needs cleaning but the crackling is all the time (even when you dont turn a knob). Out of interest if you or you know anyone selling a unloaded one (i.e just the wooden box) id be very interested, mine is very battered and at some point someone has painted it black (presumably to hide the nicks and stuff)

    Think i may have seen this. Is it the blue one with metal 'safety flooring' type pickguard? If so it is very nice but im really after a sunburst so i can add a tort pickguard, chrome bridge and pickup cover for the old classic P bass look. Its actually what i sold to fund the RV4 and although i love it i really regret selling the P bass
  11. Pow_22
    Consider any P-bassy (squier etc) though ideally want sunbust with r/wood fretboard.

    This has been sitting under my bed for ages untouched so as part of the clearout this needs to go. Im awaiting the mrs to get some pics on her digi cam but this is a webshot of one... [url="http://www.axemusic.co.uk/products/Vintage_Electro-Acoustic_Bass_VCB430N.html"]http://www.axemusic.co.uk/products/Vintage...ss_VCB430N.html[/url] Comes with very hard to find hardcase, the super long neck meant it too AGES to find a fitting case. Now to its only problem....I think it needs the jack socket connection looking at. When pluggged in it can sometimes cut in and out. This is solved by pushing down on the jack of the lead so should be just a loose conection but i honestly dont know. Has the 4 band EQ and battery check button on the onboard EQ and takes std 9v battery. Price wise im really not sure. The above link suggests £200 brand new. As mine is used and given the above problem plus it coming with a slightly bruised but solid hard case ill say £140 collected from Manchester? If this sounds too dear let me know. Tradewise id consider anything P bass ish in sunburst with a rosewood neck.

    [url="http://www.demontguitars.com/Images/Aria%2012%20string/watermarked/pages/front-full_jpg.htm"]http://www.demontguitars.com/Images/Aria%2...nt-full_jpg.htm[/url] My iphone pics arent that great (they looked it after a few beers last night) so ive nicked some from this site while i wait for the mrs to lend me her digicam. Will now also consider trades for a Squier P bass in sunburst with R/wood fretboard. Actualy pics to follow shortly

    Must admit im in the ''not for me'' group. They try to hard to sound like Valve amps to the point it sounds like some has jabbed a screwdriver thru your speakers. Its not valve 'break-up' just a cheap sounding distortion. Ill stick to my valve amp

    Recently had the volume and tone pots changed in my bison. Things have been fine since then but last night i plugged in and all i got was crackling, this was before i even touched a string or owt! It calmed down a bit but then kicked back in. Ive tried my other bass through the same lead/set-up and there are no issues so definitely seems to be the bison. Moneys tight at the mo so wondering if anyone can suggest possible diagnosis before i send it back off to my guitar techs.

    ive got the fireglo one. Amazing deep and fat tone. Needs a good set-up once you get it but after that its a VERY sweet bass
  17. Pow_22
    you mention you found Hartke's good? Have you tried the HA5500? I had one recently and loved it, only moved it on as i wanted an all valve effort
  18. Pow_22
    off on a completely different slant here but Retrovibe RV4? Very comfy body, lightweight and very thin, precision feel neck with two bloody whackin MM style humbuckers in it?
  19. Pow_22
    isnt the Little Bastard an ALL valve unlike the orange?
  20. Pow_22
