  1. Past hour
  2. I can lend you a butter knife and you could go at it like Jaco, if you like.
  3. Basschat first got interested in these over 10 years ago - I blame @Clarky It was that thread that led to me ordering a matching Crazy 88 from Guy Trigg (who seems to be no longer a Member here): https://www.facebook.com/trickyaudio/?locale=en_GB He was/is building them under licence from Greenboy in the USA: https://www.greenboy.us/ https://www.greenboy.us/cabs/view.php?model=Crazy88 Just to confirm those dimensions in metric: H 57cm x W 27cm x D 35cm, Weight 12.5Kg The cab is 4 Ohms.
  4. This cab isn't just for DB but it's enough of a boutique DB item that it's worth posting the link to the sale thread here too.
  5. Gregor form BassTheWorld is a big fan!
  6. Oscar Schmidt by Washburn Guitars. https://www.oscarschmidt.com/instrument-type/autoharps/ 😎
  7. I should also probably have mentioned that it comes with the GB Shuttle 4-button footswitch. And the soft cover.
  8. That's a great sound!
  9. I don’t know about you, but I’m enjoying the descriptions as much as the fascinating collection…
  10. I should probably have mentioned that it comes with the original Owner's Manual.
  11. Very little used since Covid, time to move it on. Comes with all the little bits of cabling etc. Condition is as near pristine as you're likely to find. Full specs are here: https://philjonesbass.net/cms/product-ha-1/

  12. My eye (yes, I have two. Don't worry...) was caught by the cool looking lever at the top of the bridge - does this amazingly manly bass have a lever that deploys the string mutes? Bet MusicMan wish they'd thought of that before adding those fiddly tiny metal round screws under the bridges of Classic Stingrays. Seriously impressed by the intonation calibration markings on the bridge as well. If Bang & Olufsen made basses, they would make basses like this.
  13. I take one of these as a spare to every gig. I wouldn’t be without it.
  14. Bought this without reading the description, it's meant for a six string with narrower string spacing or possibly a four with a big pickup. Won't work with a 5 as it has two blades of equal length so the middle string will sit between them if that makes any sense. Anyway here's the link to EMG which should tell you all you need to know. EMG 40P All the bits are there, unopened and the pickup hasn't even been fitted to a bass. All yours for £75 posted to your door. Cheers Andrew
  15. A "BEAUT" GLWTS.......
  16. Brilliant and very underrated basses if you like old school............ GLWTS Paul.
  17. Now includes a Basic " Sonik " GigBag.
  18. I have too many knobs. Twenty years of working on guitars and basses, and they start to stack up. If anyone's interested, I can do some measurements and perhaps stick them in the recycling forum.

  20. That's very nice. If my P bass sells before this Ill be interested
  21. Today
  22. I'll have to look into Newtone strings, thanks. I'm glad I booked the day off work today, as I'm just sitting around playing it. I have to admit, I'd not expected it to sound this good. It's also even more comfortable to play now that my hands aren't all cramped up from spending a day sanding and working with a soldering iron.
  23. Bump. Tracked Postage now included to anywhere in the UK in the price. Don't be afraid to make offer though, I won't be offended.
  24. Reduced to £60 including UK shipping. Another thing I thought I needed but didn’t. This has had less than a couple of hours of use. I messed about with it, then put it in a cupboard. Pretty much as new.
  25. Id love a Status. Ive had headless basses over the years (still got a spirit), but never owed a real Status or Steinberger. To me those aren't custom or boutique basses, as there were loads of them around back in the day. I still get the impression that its more the hobbyist that likes to spend shed loads of money on boutique, rather than the working bass player. obviously that's a blanket statement but im just going by things ive read on here. Ive also never seen a bass player playing anything more than 5 in a live situation. Then again I dont go to see many bands these days.
