    For Sale Valenti M24-J5 Bass #148 - Price further reduced!

    Keen eyes! You're right about the fretboard being flamed maple, not just plain. I was using the description straight off the Valenti Basses web site, so I just updated the listing accordingly. Thanks for the kind words about this very fine bass.

    John East J-Retro Preamp - is hiss still an issue?

    THE teeny-but-worth-it bass combo????

    I just bought a Phil Jones Bass Cub and couldn't be happier. Comes with a padded shoulder bag case puts out 100 watts into two 5" Neo Speakers and weighs only 13.2 pounds! The first time I played it, I thought not loud enough, but then I realized because it has an excellent XLR DI, it's easy to...
