  1. Good point :lol: Cheers.

    The first five came from dangerboy (I hope he doesn't mind my using them), and are as I received it (with the original bridge):

    Then there are the horrible pics I took earlier in the week I'll get decent pics up once the light is better.
    The first one has a reflection of the camera showing :)
    The smudge on the Gotoh bridge is sticky stuff from a label. I've removed it since these were taken (another reason to put better ones up...).

  2. I like this. The headstock shape is exactly like the Yamaha fretless I bought off Setekh a couple of months back. And it's the same colour. And stuff. Sorry, got a bit distracted there :)

    So, yeah, someone needs to buy this quick before I do... I haven't got space or need for any more basses.

    Unless you fancy a trade + cash for an aluminium cricket bat? Kramer The Duke, available here:
    [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=153692"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=153692[/url] Not very jazzy at all, I know.

    Bump anyhow :)

  3. Back up for sale or trade.

    Kramer The Duke

    This is a four-string passive headless cricket-bat, black, aluminium neck with wood inserts, made around 1984 IIRC and with some scars to prove it.

    Bought from dangerboy in January 2011; original sale thread here:
    [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=106987&hl=kramer"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...7&hl=kramer[/url]

    Solid and compact; it feels very robust indeed. Scale is 32". It takes single-ball strings, unlike some headless designs.
    Single pickup, nice tone; very punchy, with a lot of zing and a lot of sustain.
    Frets have some wear but there's plenty left.

    I upgraded the bridge (to a black Gotoh 201).

    For sale because I'm not playing it; that band split up, and while it's great to travel with, I also have an Ashbory.

    With the Gotoh, £225 plus carriage.

  4. I bought this from ficelles in May; sale thread here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=135418&hl=ficelles"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...amp;hl=ficelles[/url]

    It was originally for two keyboards, with a removable padded partition between (lost before I bought it). Otherwise in good nick, as in the original thread. It's had a carry handle added on the top so that one person can move it. Photos if needed.

    I've been keeping two cricket-bat basses in it, but it's wasted on them, and I need the space.

    Price, £25. Pick up only, unless someone fancies paying the carriage on it. Alternatively, I might drive it for petrol money, say 50 miles.
    I'm in Poole, Dorset.
    PM is the best way to get my attention - I forget to check the thread :|

  5. For sale, Boss BR-8 digital studio.

    Bought from jacethebass in June and hasn't even come out of the box (apart from one rapid check to confirm it was all there).

    Original thread here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=142094"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=142094[/url]

    Asking what I paid for it: £80 plus postage.

    Pics if you insist, but it's entirely unchanged from the previous thread :)

  6. Traded for John's EHX MicroSynth.
    Scrupulously honest and a nice guy.
    Pedal came well packaged, as fast as could be expected, and working well. He also gave me a couple of hints which have been very helpful.

    A good experience and I would have no qualms in dealing with John again.

    Thanks :)
