    For Sale/Trade Red Witch Pentavocal Tremolo

    I'm selling a mint Red Witch Pentavocal Tremolo pedal. I bought on TalkBass many years ago. It's been used with stocking feet only a couple times. My musical world has changed a bit over the last couple years, and I don't need effects options. I'll ship it to you for $175 USD if you're in...

    SOLD Greedtone Overdrive

    Currently thinning the herd. My musical life has changed directions over the last few years, and I don't need a plethora of dirty options. This pedal rips though, it's just too much for me. If you're in Canada I'll ship it to you for 175 Canadian, if you're in the USA 140 of your dollars. I...

    For Trade Fishman Full Circle (Canadian trades preferred)

    I've got a Fishman Full Circle 5/16" pickup that I'd like to trade. It's been used for two years. Ideally I'd like to try out the David Gage Lifeline large diameter. But I'm into talking about other options. For the time being, I'd like to see if anyone in Canada wants to make a trade. Thank...

    Double Bass Favourite 15" speaker

    I've got a beat up Ampeg B100R. I have abused it for years on electric gigs. The other day, I had to run straight from an electric gig to a rockabilly gig, so on a whim I rolled with the Ampeg. I really enjoyed the sound. This amp has been used hard by myself, and I need to give it some love. I...

    Double Bass Help Me. Need to make a decision today. (poly vs. flexo vs. ???)

    Here goes... I'm a gut string user, that's where the sound in my head is at. I'm lucky to have two basses (one with guts and one with steels). I play slap, I pluck and I arco(a little bit). I recently had my American Standard converted to a removable neck bass. I've had an old set Spirocore...

    SOLD Bartolini 9CBJS

    I just sold the jazz bass that had these pickups in it. The buyer requested the original pickups be put back in. They were in the bass for less than a year. I did the very least trimming when un-installing these. If I had any intentions of buying a jazz bass, I would keep these. The tone that...

    First Act info

    Hi All, I'm trying to hunt down some info on this bass I've got. I've come across a bunch of the Delgadas on these forums but I haven't seen any that look like mine. Set neck, and the "thunderbird-ish" headstock, bad-ass bridge. This bass does rip. Has anyone come across a model like this one?

    SOLD Albert Krell 1884 (new with soundclips)

    I want to list this instrument at $10000 Canadian Dollars. So depending on how our respective economies go, USD is currently in the $7900 range. This is a bit of a feeler add. I'm still unsure I want to let this bass go, I do love it, but, I've been on the road a ton these last couple years...

    SOLD Bass Buggy (FT Preferably)

    I've got a Bass Buggy in great shape, hardly used, less than ten times. I bought it when I found my American Standard had a smaller endpin than my Old German. $70 USD, OR I'd really like a Gotz/Ulsa style 10mm end pin. And would be happy to swap for one. I know that the prices don't really...

    Double Bass Unravelling Dlugo E/A

    If there is a thread related to this already, my apologies for not searching hard enough. I have a well loved, played hard 3+ years old set of Dlugoglecki's that have been on and off multiple times on both my basses. Great strings. I'm currently changing them, the E/A have unwound to the point...

    Double Bass Cincinnati in Das Haus?

    I've had the fine fortune of playing a fantastic bass for close to ten years now. I've been meaning to put out feelers and see if anyone has ever seen one of these before. I purchased it in Ottawa as an "Unkown German bass" from 1884, and was told that there were reasons to believe that it could...

    Your favourite dead roundwounds

    Hoping to get a bunch of subjective responses here. Just picked up a second p bass ('63 AVRI, fantastic bass!). I've been a flats devotee for years. Am thinking that I'm gonna keep rounds on it. That being said, I'm not big into the new bright string vibe, definitely like my warmth, looking...

    I'm sorry, yet another P bass thread...

    Sooo, it's definitely time for a slight upgrade in my faithful p bass. I play a wide range of music, but I try to build my sounds from a vintage soul, r&b type tone. I'm not looking for highs at all. What I'm really looking for, is to get a boost in the lower mids, with a bit of grit if...

    Double Bass Gateway Oliv A?

    I've been using a string set-up of Spiro Weich on the E&A with Oliv's on my D&G strings. I'm totally into the sound I'm getting, although I've been feeling a bit antsy as of late, I am almost getting the sound that I'm hearing in my head and I've had a hunch that an Oliv A is the answer to my...

    Double Bass I may need to find a new D and G

    For the last month or so I have been using a setup with Spirocore weichs on my E and A string and obligatos on thbe D and G. Last weekend I was playing in a quartet with piano guitar and drums, and it seemed from my perspective that the oblgatos were getting wiped out by the guitar. It wasn't a...
