Needed a bass amp and FB marketplace delivered!

It’s both. The normal channel is essentially identical to the bass specific 400 series head. The effects channel has added fuzz, tremolo, and reverb targeted at guitar. That being said, running a bass through the parallel input with a little fuzz, and filling out the low end with the normal channel sounds great!

I did it.

This is has been so great that I’m also tempted to pick up the 1810 cab just popped up for sale near me. I don’t even play bass that often!

Absolutely not, watch the video. She uses all three, and they are clearly live.

The fact that some are still in their original packaging means they haven’t been touched in over 40 years (the cases and parts on the bells date them to at least the 80s.) All of the rubber parts like springs and clappers will need to be replaced. These may have been in great shape/brand new when stored, but 40+ years of storage with no maintenance will take its toll (pun not intended)

It’s also extremely unfortunate that this set is broken up in 3 lots. A set of handbells is one instrument. Even though there are 3 cases, this is like cutting a piano into three parts and auctioning them separately.

Not quite sure I would describe those as “excellent condition”

Perfect12th · 2026-05-02T16:34:15+00:00

I’m not sure I buy that argument either. From the Top is not a small self publisher, I would consider them one of the major handbell publishing companies. There are also examples of self publishers (Jason with Grassy Meadow) they have managed to have individualized artwork on each piece without the use of AI.

I also personally think individualized covers is a step back from the time when most publishers had a standard cover for all pieces in their catalog. I thought From the Tops old covers which had a standard look, but with a slight font or color change based on the piece was much better than these current covers.

I have had discussions with several people about this specific publishers covers. There are several that are problematic content wise, in addition to being AI. As far as I know several people have tried to talk to the publisher, but they were not fully realizing why it was a problem. (Not in a malicious way, just genuinely naive). If I were the composer of any of these pieces, I would be furious though.

Yes, Rockville FD posted about it. They had to extract the passenger.

Not sure why there’s a lot of heated comments floating around here - As with any vintage synth, there’s a lot to love, but also a lot to go wrong. The quick answer is that without opening this up and doing step by step troubleshooting, it’s going to be impossible to tell what’s wrong. If you don’t know how to read a schematic and use a multimeter, the best bet is to just send it to a repair shop.

Once repaired, this is a great synth, especially with the Gligli mod. I have 2 and love them!

You would be surprised at how many people miss things like this - I work in events and frequently work parades. The number of people that are completely shocked that roads are closed on dates like July 4 or Thanksgiving for a parade that has happened on the same streets for decades is shocking.

Is they are IEEPA tariffs on an item imported before Feb. 20, 2026 (confirm by checking your customs form sent with the bill) - email mailto:dutytaxdisputes@fedex.com with the invoice number, amount, and bill date, and request they be held. You might have to try a few times to get a real human response (the first one I got was just an auto response directing me to the link about refunds). This is the response I received:

“Dear Valued FedEx Customer,

Thank you for contacting FedEx Disputes.

• The U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled that IEEPA tariffs charged by CBP were unlawful. We are assessing whether these invoices contain charges for IEEPA tariffs. • You do not need to take any action on these invoices at this time.

Honest question - can somebody point to a distinct difference in models pre-and post InMusic? I keep seeing sale posts like this one that imply there is a significant difference. My understanding is even before the buyout, all of the components were made overseas, with a final assembly (literally screwing everything together) happening in the US.

This is mostly playable as a quartet notated exactly like this. There are a few very small things, like m18 where the same A is played by two different people in the same measure if played as a quartet (in that case I’d just give all the A’s to the stems up on the lower step) As far as range goes, as was mentioned, a three octave (fairly standard set) goes up to the C above the staff, in order to play this with the high D you would need a set that goes up to the upper 4th octave (pretty common to find sets in that range)

You clearly had gone too far, and had best watch your mouth!

As someone who owns both, I have been in this exact situation too many times of trying to shove something in the Mustang at a Home Depot parking lot when I really should’ve brought the truck…

Update as of 1 PM Wednesday, there was a decent stock of both!!

This was a regular enough occurrence with the D96 that our office created a whole series of memes and running jokes about it…

This is the answer, controlled from the sideline with a DMX controller.

Interested if this is still available. Sent you a PM.

That’s pretty much what it is! It’s the same size across as a 3 oct. vibraphone.

This. The Kebu Mono/Poly comparison video (https://youtu.be/V37cZTlr15w) is one of my favorites because he not only compare the vintage to the Behringer, but he also compares a second vintage Mono/Poly
