I've been asked what the pre-amp is.. honest answer is.. I don't know! It works and sounds good so I never worried about it... But here are some photos: Chat GPT says (from the images): Who likely built it While Dingwall designed it, these boards were very likely manufactured for Dingwall by Glockenklang or another German OEM — Sheldon has historically collaborated closely with Glockenklang for electronics, but with custom specs. So the most accurate description is: Dingwall proprietary 3-pickup active buffer / preamp (Rev 1, 2014) Why this matters This preamp is: ✔ Period-correct ✔ Stock for 3-pickup AB1s of that era ✔ Highly regarded for transparency ✔ Increasingly hard to replace like-for-like --- Hope that's helpful! - If Chat GPT has got it completely wrong (which is very possible!) and you know what it is please let me know! Any other questions please drop me a line!

Ah, well that makes a lot more sense then - an independent operation but with a license to use HB branding and import a select product line. That tracks with what I've seen over the last few years (as an observer). Guitar Fetish will no doubt have been hit hard.

TBG seem to change the pricing on their site once a bass has sold from basses I’ve been following. I don’t know if it’s to do with sale minus commission and they record that value on the site.

Gewa BS 25 Double Bass Bag 3/4 Looking to get rid of. Happy to give away for free. Collection only. I don't have much space to keep it around, so will be looking to throw away towards the end of Feb. Just in case someone wants a case. Used for 10+ years so general wear and tear (show in pictures, do message and ask for more if needed) Handle by bridge has slight rip through, can be an easy fix by sowing a patch/securing on if you are good with your hands. All other handles are fine. Wheels for easy transportation (wheels are in great condition, I don't really use them so has good amount of life left) Has shoulder straps (tucked away as I don't use them) so should still hold well. 25mm of padding, sufficient to keep protected - been protected enough travelling in and out of London. Faux leather parts have been peeled off with age. Dimentions: Total length: 186 Body Length: 112 Upper Body Width: 53 Lower Body Width: 67 Height inc. Bridge: 45

Paging Mr Dali to the front desk please, you seem to have lost something. NGL I kind of love it. edit: not enough to pay £1899 for it though

Looks like a bass that Mr Soft from the Steve Harley/Cockney Rebel song would play.

I haven’t tried one, but both the Tech21 SH1 Steve Harris and the English Muffy have a great Lemmy tone lurking inside.

5 String Set of La Bella White Nylon Tapewound strings. Extra Long Scale so fit a 35” scale or a string through body. 60/70/94/115/135 Tapered B string, which makes a big difference on the quality of the sound you get from the B string, especially with Tapes. Bought on here for £45 as barely used, I put them on a bass and played them for maybe 40 mins and ended up selling the bass so they came off, only have 1 x 35” scale bass now and that’s got rounds on so they’re just in my string box - too good (and expensive!) to just sit doing nowt, and I’m after some flats for something else so I’ll sell them. They cost £52-£80 a set depending on where you go, too much to take a punt on and see if you like them, so I’ll make them cheap enough to give em a whirl! £28 Posted Cool video (not sure about the headband tho) of someone with a set on a P7 👇

I think they're all pretty much just IPA or some other similar organic solvent. They may have a few other degreasers in there to clean off grease a bit faster but they're all just volatile organics.

Tell me about it. Those donation boxes in Tesco and others, where you are asked to deposit food you've paid for to be given to charity, always annoy me. So Tesco et al get paid full price, including their mark-up, for stuff, which they then pass on to local charities. Do they offer you stuff at cost if you put it in the charity box? Do they say "Thank you to our generous customers" (or even name-check them) when passing on stuff they've sold at full price/a profit? Er, no. So they get extra sales, plus a pat on the back and publicity for their "generosity". Makes you sick.

Nope, it wasn't a Thomann operation, not even the warehouse. Warehouse is located in New Hartford, home to Ovation guitars. If the folks behind the Reverb store weren't ex-employees then they had plenty of knowledgeable people close to hand. 'Cracking' the US has never been a Thomann priority. Potential market for EU/UK is 520 million customers, it's 330 million for the US. What there was has pretty much gone. Kurt at Rondo quit importing SX, Agile and Haeden a few years back. Sam Ash no longer sells their own brands, Carlo Robeli etc. Guitar Fetish currently have all their imported brands reduced by 50%, my guess is they're getting out of the game too. It's several years for me. Owned more than enough US basses to last a life time, don't miss any of the crap coming out of Hollywood, stopped buying records around 2002 and I don't eat fast food .

Loving both of those bitsas Chris, but that natural ash Jaguar-eque P/MM fretless really is a thing of beauty Agree about the pickups - IMHO the Nordstrand Bigman is the best sounding MM pickup out there - I put one in my Warwick Streamer Jazzman LX (J p/up is a Bartolini J-axis)
