  1. Up for sale is my excellent 450W TKS 1126 cab. Just an outstanding little cab loaded with Ceramic 12” 6” speakers and HF. Great sounding full range cab that cuts through with the 6” midrange. I’ve used this at rehearsals and a few pub gigs and it’s handled everything perfectly. Although it’s only 15Kg I’m moving over to the Markbass Energy cabs which are ridiculously lightweight as I’ll be struggling to carry anything around for a long while yet due to my recent injury. Good overall condition. There’s a few little nicks to the vinyl covering here and there and marks to the front grill but nothing nasty. All in all a top notch, powerful and tidy little cab. Collection obviously preferred from Merseyside where it can be viewed and tested but I should be able to ship if you so wish to organise.
  2. Compared to the Grabber these are great value for money and I’ve read some great reviews too. If I didn’t already have 4 Thunderbird basses I’d be onto one of these.
  3. Bargain. I’d love this but couldn’t be for sale at a worse time for me unfortunately.
  4. I’ve had a couple of enquiries about shipping the cab. If I had suitable packaging and a strong enough box I would but unfortunately I don’t. So it’s collection only I’m sorry to say. This is a superb cab in every way and well worth a drive out to the jewel of Merseyside to collect. 😉
  5. I took your advice and put a set on my Precision. I like them. Brighter than I expected which is not an issue at all but I guess they’ll lose a bit over time? I’ll be taking the bass to the next rehearsal and see how it all sounds in the mix.
  6. If it has to be a combo I’d be looking at a MarkBass one. I was very impressed with my 1x12 I had a couple of years ago. I later bought a 1x12 extension cab and it was plenty for any venue we played. Compact and light weight was a big bonus too.
  7. I’m guessing you’ve played the HB and got used to it and now the Ibanez feels ‘wrong’. I started playing Thunderbirds and they took some time to get to grips with. Picking up a Jazz bass some time later was crazy, it felt so awkward to play! Lesson for me was not to spend too much time with one bass and switch back to one of my others after a day or so. I’m currently using a Precision bass but next rehearsal will be a TBird.
  8. Scraping in at 50 years old.
  9. I’m afraid not. I’m pretty much housebound for the foreseeable, probably won’t be able to drive for weeks yet. Nightmare!
  10. Do Gear 4 Music do them? I’m sure I’ve seen suitable cases for short scale Gibsons when I’ve been looking for cases to suit a long scale one. Thomann perhaps?

    Bought a little TC Electronics amp from Lewis. Super transaction with fast comms, super fast dispatch and war proof packaging. So deal with confidence! Top BassChatter. Thanks. 👍🏻
  12. Joel has just called by to collect my little MarkBass combo. Thoroughly nice chap and great guy to deal with. But I now have Stingray GAS 🤦‍♂️ Cheers! 👍🏻
  13. Absolutely awesome! What a great bunch of people ❤️
