    Hot off the mixing desk....

    I’ve just completed my second sale using Eurosender (via DPD). I removed the gap in the post code this time (😜) and it has arrived at its destination (UK to UK) in record time (less than 24 hours). Happy buyer & happy seller, albeit suffering slightly from sellers remorse.

    Can’t share pictures as it hasn’t been built yet. It’s blue and it’s got 5 strings 😜

    I’ve just dumped myself unceremoniously out of the 2020 challenge with a deposit now down in a new Dingwall. In fairness to myself, I have sold three basses this year, so I think it was inevitable 😎

    I’ve just realised I’ve dumped myself out of the GAS Challenge 2020 😬

    I might have accidentally put deposit down on another Dingwall 😎.

    Anyone had a £1 max selling offer from eBay this weekend?

      Yeah, I’m sure they used to do it at Easter

      I was expecting one too. I think they've realised that a) people are using Ebay to sell a lot more because of lockdown and collection only-friendly options are a no no (such as Gumtree) at the moment, and b) people are wanting/needing to sell more. 

      Possibly a bit disingenuous but clever commercial sense

      Yes, that was my first thought. I've ended everything above £10. They can wait.

    Agreed with pretty much all that has been said. There are a couple of overpriced basses I can think of here that get listed over and over again with a new thread every time. Also, there are a couple of sellers that can barely string a couple of decent sentences together to encourage a sale. Basschat's general answer to this is they get ignored and quite rightly so. It's not exclusive to Basschat by any stretch either.

    Ooh, I do like a Monarch. My one doesn’t need performance enhancing drugs 😂

    There’s a pre-owned one on The Bass Gallery’s website at the moment, but the spec is a little sparse. I think I would want to know a little more about it and give it a test drive before jumping in. Not likely at the moment unfortunately.

    Having watched many of Mr.Clayton’s videos, I now have an unexpected and compelling urge to get a Zon Sonus. I know nothing about them, how much they cost and what their spec are, but his just sounds so good. Yes, I know it’s all in his hands 😜

    SOLD.

    I don't think anyone is policing it, but the danger is that since the PO changed their policy to no batteries, if (and that's a big IF) the package is found to have any, particularly if its an international package, you may well find it won't arrive where it's supposed to. So basically, it's not worth the risk. If this Dingwall hasn't been out of the box since leaving the factory, that may well be why it doesn't have a battery.

    It doesn't make a lot of sense to me though. His You Tube channel hasn't been up long and it has over 11k subscribers already. I'm still not sure which of the Leland Sklar pages on FB is actually his. I'll assume it's the one with 83k. Give it a little more time and the YT channel will be right up there. Wish he would just carry on putting them on YT.
  16. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Yes, I saw that. I'm not sure why that prohibits his posting videos on You Tube though. I'm also not sure which FB account is his official one. The ones I follow seems to be working.
  17. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    You definitely bought the best colour @Clarky 👍.
  18. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    It wasn’t the one that was for sale at The Gallery by any chance was it? I was looking at that to get the matching set 😀.
  19. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Precisely the reasons I bought it/exactly why I shouldn’t sell it. I can’t put it on hold yet as no money has changed hands, but it looks like it may be spoken for. I will update as soon as I can confirm it. Sellers remorse is setting in already ☹️
  20. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Yeah, I'll go with that. What a player 👍
  21. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Probably the sort of discussion I would do well not to look at if I want to keep it up for sale 😂
  22. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Yes, it's a lovely example mate. It was a toss up between about four or five Stingrays over which one was up next. I'm sure it will make someone else very happy.
  23. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    I've been trying to find a recording that I actually used this on and have only managed to find one. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound very Stingray like due my effects chain, but here it is anyway 😂.

    An absolutely fantastic condition Premier Dealer Network Classic Stingray IV in Gilded White complete with MM hard case. There were only 200 of these IV string basses manufactured, so reasonably scarce. Although it has four pots, it is the Classic 2EQ configuration. The fourth one becomes a tone pot when passive mode is selected. The finish is lush. It looks flat white at first glance, but it is in fact sparkly (gilded). You can see it in the photo of the rear. No trades thank you. The price includes shipping to mainland UK only. This is a seriously nice bass that I'm trying not to put too much thought into writing about 'cos I know I'll end up pulling it if I do. Weight = 10lbs 5oz. Payment via bank transfer.

    I would ring them and give them another chance. Once I had done so, it was plain sailing. Delivered UK to UK in less than 24 hours.
