  1. pretty this is what my half-stripped Vox Standard is trying to look like sadly it's out of my range, but have a bump anyway
  2. Bought a guitar rack from Mel. No problems, good communications. I'd have no problem with dealing with Mel again. Thanks Mel
  3. I bought an Ashbory from Steve. All as advertised, well packed, all went well. I'd have no hesitation in dealing with him again. Thanks Steve
  4. True... could lead to lots of acoustics getting squished
  5. Traded for Geoff's Hohner five-string. Good communications, all as advertised, and a useful couple of hints about its controls. Nice guy. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Geoff again. Hope you like the SB310
  6. Is it one like this? http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?q=guitar+rack&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&gbv=1&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=17094990346250784380&output=nojs
  7. Bass Collection SB460. Looks to be in nice condition; not a million miles from me. http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/105107206
  8. The main difference in my experience is that the Pahoehoes last much better and are not "sticky" to the touch in the same way as the silicone white strings. I think the sound is marginally better with the silicones, but the feel and durability of the Pahoehoes make them a no-brainer, for me. YMMV, naturally [quote name='tayste_2000' timestamp='1328007098' post='1520085'] The feel and tension is better than the standard white strings, some people say the sound is more fretless like than the upright sound of the white strings, personally they sound very similar but I'm going from memory as opposed to a direct comparison. Definitely worth a try though [/quote]
  9. Received a huge box of jazz CDs. All went smoothly with good communication. Now I only have to worry about finding time to listen to them all... Thanks Clarky
  10. hmm... am I detecting a Blue Aeroplanes fan here? have a bump on the off-chance
  11. Weight is about 8.5lb, according to two scales I tried it on today (one a bathroom scales, and one a 25-lb range tension-type).
  12. [quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1326484869' post='1497978'] Not sure, but I can [/quote] Yup.
  13. Overall length I measure to be 97cm (approx 38.3 inches). It fits a guitar bag. Weight I'm not sure of and can't measure easily (no scales). It feels very compact and chunky, but it's small so the actual weight is not great. I think it weighs about the same as my Yamaha BBN5, if that helps. It's certainly a lot lighter than my Vox Standard, but then almost everything is I'll try to sort out a proper weight tomorrow.
  14. I just bought a very nice blue Bass Collection SB310 from Jack. Absolutely seamless transaction. Good communications including options on packaging, well packed, very fast. Spot on. I'd have no hesitation in dealing with Jack again. thanks Jack!
  15. That's fine. It's best to PM me - I forget to check the thread half the time. You're welcome to come and have a look and a cuppa. [quote name='Dorset Steve' timestamp='1326455905' post='1497381'] Just seen original ad for dimensions! I'll measure my keyboards later and let you know. [/quote]
  16. hmmm... I'm not sure I'm allowed to bump this, but I'm going to anyway
  17. Thanks for this Clarky; I will have to pick that up.
