  1. [quote name='Shambo' timestamp='1481147925' post='3190130'] Hi Grae. Nice bass. Have a free bump. [/quote] Thanks Shambo!
  2. Wow! What a bass I always say of how Yamaha basses are better than Fender and this surely must be prime example! I've played a late 70's/very early 80's pbass and quality is everywhere in touch, feel and sound. Someone is bound to snap this up asap. GLWTS, bump. BSB
  3. [quote name='Duffffy' timestamp='1474624822' post='3139302'] [/quote] Think you need to bump about £1800 off for that hahaha Stunning basses and a joy to play. GLWTS
  4. Lovely! These are incredible basses and hope you'll find someone with good taste soon GLWTS
  5. [b]NOW £30 +£7 P&P - Next day delivery.[/b] purchased this not so long ago to play with, something for my guitar but predominantly for my bass after spending a good hour or two playing it at work. A genuinely nice pedal, I'm tempted to keep it really but I have SOOOO many distortion pedals, it's hard to pick which ones to keep or sell. So it's last in, first out. I love the warm "valve" like tones from this pedal without being actual valves and afraid of blowing them. Most noticeably and best way to describe it on bass: [b]Active basses[/b] I use to find my basses straight into the amp at band practice/gigs to be dry, and lacking character despite the active EQ (and not wanting to change my amp). So plugging in the pedal, turning up the tone and dialling in a little overdrive REALLY made the bass stand out in the band setup. Not so much out distorts or overdrives- unless you want to crank it but a nice valve crunch to keep that low end defined as a bass amongst 2 guitarists, keyboards and drums. [b]Passive basses[/b] Remember the old 80's valve bass amps and making it distort for those really deep and growling tones ONLY those amps could do? Well this is how I used this pedal most of the time. After trading my Marshall JCM800 last year, I miss that monster tone and with being passive and not kicking the high freqs out like on the active bass, you can really make this a palatable distortion pedal keeping the volume low or cranking it up for some Cliff Burton overdrive! For a pretty 'basic' pedal, it's bound to keep you occupied and one to keep for when you need it or always in use. Comes with box and paper work. All new condition, inc 9v battery. Trades welcome. PayPal preferred Questions? Fire away BSB
  6. Looking to trade my Ashdown/ Dr Green Bearded Lady pedal for anything that's [b]Not distortion[/b] or simply for sale. Let me know what you have in mind to trade or offer. £7 P&P fees. Peace, BSB
  7. [quote name='Thunder Fingers' timestamp='1478344309' post='3168499'] Hehe, not bad. Det går bra, er fra Bergen men bor i Oslo Sadly no trades, I need the money. [/quote] virkelig fine steder! Good luck with the sale. Amazing basses- I always say Yamaha make the best Pbasses and this is the creme de la creme. Bump!
  8. If you answered the guys on what the controls do, you might be closer to a sale. Almost a year now?! :-/ Documents more time details Tell us what makes it a good bass- as to most, have never heard of Dick Dijkman or seen this bass. Take more pictures I'd even consider updating your profile too, to show where you at least come from. Hopefully a sale soon
  9. Hei, hvordan har du det? Hvor i Norge er du fra? About as good as my Norse gets haha would you trade at all?
  10. [quote name='Rowley Birkin QC' timestamp='1478019669' post='3166089'] Good point, I've amended the title to avoid any confusion! [/quote] I've not tried the American subs, but being from USA, I have high hopes for them doing the Musicman name justice for the original RRP of £500-£600 However, working around the Sterling Sub'S, you really can't go wrong for their price tags. I've been tempted a few times to get one as they're a lot of (Musicman) bass for the money! If I sell my Gibson, I'll be back for sure 😉 Have a few bumps from me anyway 👍🏻
  11. Thought this was the American made Sub and not the ones by Sterling 🙈 Still lovely basses though and GLWTS 😁👍🏻
