  1. Just bought a cab from Ian. Although it was secondhand it could easily have just arrived (brand new) from a retailer because it was basically in new condition and, what's more, it was in the original manufacturer's box too. Keeping the original packaging is good common sense I reckon. I had great comms from Ian from start to finish and would recommend him without reservation.
  2. The new Markbass cabs are outstanding and feel even lighter than stated weight. Ian is a top guy to deal with too.
  3. Recently met Dave at a halfway point and took cab off his hands. Had a 10 minute chinwag and was on my way. Great guy to deal with, absolutely true to his word and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wishing to buy or sell to him.
  4. Everything that has been said about these cabs is true - they are loud and clear and do, without doubt, compete with a loud drummer. Fit and finish is excellent. Mine is a three months old and includes a padded cover. 11kg make it a very easy lift; this was one of the main attractions for me. However, I have come to realise that I have a long term addiction to coloured sounding cabs and the Monza is most certainly not in that ballpark. I realise that I could add a preamp/amp modelling/drive type pedal in order to modify the input but I have an aversion to pedals hence the 'For sale' ad here. The link to the website is here and the Monza spec is down the page: https://www.lfsys.co.uk/bassguitarproducts I have the original box and am including delivery in the price. No trades at this stage I'm afraid.
  5. I took delivery of my Monza a couple of weeks ago. It came straight out with me for a band rehearsal and then I did not get a chance to play through it properly again until earlier this evening. Here are my thoughts/opinions: The band comprises drums, guitar, bass, keys and two vocalists; we rehearse in a large meeting room that has pretty good acoustics due to a suspended ceiling. I would say we play at 4/5ths of a gig level. The Monza was quite astonishing. The cab it replaces is a Markbass 2x10 which I love for its warmth and character, the Monza is everything others have said - clean, clear, detailed but definitely not coloured. Stevie advised me to 'give it some wellie' so I did just that and could not believe how much air the thing was moving and how well I could hear myself as I moved around the room. This echoes what others have found with their Monzas. I had another play at home tonight at reasonable volume and I have to say that this cab is very classy. Although 'clean' sounding, it is by no means sterile nor does it ever get stressed as you push it. You can certainly tell that the components are of a very high standard. I would go as far as to say that they are good value for money!
  6. Bump and I should have said in my ad description that the cab is relatively light at 15kg and the recessed top handle makes it a very easy carry.
  7. Markbass TRV102p 400w 8ohm 2x10 bass cab. I bought this cab with the intention of adding an extension cab at some stage. I actually never needed to because it is a fab sounding cab as it is. Rear ported with piezo tweeter, 45Hz-18kHz 101db SPL. Sounds terrific with my Markbass LM58R head; pretty much all the power you'd need for most situations. In great condition complete with a Hot Covers padded cover, this cab has had a very easy life. I am including p&p in the price of £300 or will knock off the equivalent value if being collected. Also, happy to meet within 30 mile radius of J23 M5 in Somerset. No trades sorry.
  8. Paul bought an amp from me. Good comms and, more importantly, quick payment! I hope our paths cross again.
  9. My second transaction this year with Dave, as a seller once again. Always a quick response and great comms and, of course, he paid up quick! Top Basschatter.
