    Can't you detatch the Promethean head from the speaker? I have a P500H (head only) and it really kicks through my EAD 212. I've also got a GB Shuttle 6 which ticks all the boxes if you're interested

    [url="http://www.maplin.co.uk/multi-purpose-non-slip-mat-217606"]This stuff[/url] will do the trick. Probably got some down your local £ shop if you want it cheaper

    [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1362167489' post='1996792'] I have bad news for us Warwick-mad lefties. Their stand appeared to be well ready this afternoon when I was at the show. They have a good number of basses there - but NOT ONE OF THEM LEFT-HANDED. I saw a nice lefty Corvette 4 waiting to be put in place at another stand, and several lefty Höfner MacCartney models - but not much else for us. [/quote] Can you recall whether they had any of the PS Star basses there? Looks like this[attachment=128850:282713.jpg] Been gassin' for one for a while - Barclaycard on standby!

    It is/was mine, sale pending as we speak!

    [quote name='MoJoKe' timestamp='1361699203' post='1989303'] I regularly work in London and always come in from the M4, and park at Hounslow West tube station, which costs about £5 for the day, then get the tube in on a 1 day travel card for about £8 [/quote] Sounds like a plan!

    Whats the parking like around the venue these days? Just wondering whether public transport would be preferable? Or cheaper!

    If that Bolin had been fretless, I'd have been winging my way up the M11 as we speak! Have a bump on me

    Very easy and pleasant transaction with Andrew for his Shuttle 6. He kept me informed at all times and got it to my doorstep in double quick time, it was very well packed and had clearly been treated well. I would happily deal with him again, all round good egg!

    I would see how it sounds with the pre fitted before you spend your hard earned on pickups. I fitted a U-Retro to a GB75 and it sounded so good I kept the original pick ups. I think string spacing is slightly wider than a Stingray so you might have to take that into account if you are considering replacement pups?

    PM heading your way!!

    Dont practice until you get it right - practice 'til you [i]dont[/i] get it wrong

    A very straightforward and easy purchase from David. Dont be put off by the fact that he is based in Hungary - this was quicker than Royal Mail 2nd! Well done that man!

    Just sold my Cort Fretless to Will, he's a thoroughly nice chap to deal with and is as good as his word. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again and would recommend him as an honest and reliable buyer/seller.

    Consider [quote name='BigBeatNut' timestamp='1357596639' post='1925244'] How did I miss this ? If the provisional sale falls through can I put myself next in line ? [/quote] Consider yourself first reserve!

    Well, my new fretless has landed, so I'm gonna bump this up. I really don't want to put it in its case and leave it in the loft, which would probably be unhealthy for it. Rather that than ebay, though, which would probably be unhealthy for me!

    [quote name='grahamd' timestamp='1357411185' post='1922366'] Stunner! Made in the same factory as Lakland Skylines too if I'm not mistaken, so build quality is tip top [/quote] Ah! That would figure, its right up there with my old DJ in terms of quality but the U-Retro gives it the edge tonally

    [quote name='dudi8' timestamp='1357413546' post='1922407'] Price: 100 Pounds [/quote] Does that include shipping?

    [quote name='rapscallion' timestamp='1357406084' post='1922249'] I keep telling myself I don't need it but I really do! [/quote] I notice you're from West Sussex - I'm originally from Horsham and regularly visit relatives around there - it would make delivery a very likely proposition!! [quote name='apa' timestamp='1357407766' post='1922283'] That is a very very good combination. Cort quality, Ebony fretless and a U-Retro. Man after my own heart stylee bump. A[/quote] yes, I was pleasantly surprised at the build quality and playability. I dont think you'd get a better spec'd instrument for the price

    This Fantastic instrument has been perfect for me to make the transition from fretted to fretless bass, and only the arrival of a shiny new custom fretless makes this now surplus to my requirements. It is the more desirable Korean made model, in a fabulous translucent white finish over a nicely figured Ash body, finished with a Tort pickguard. It has an unlined 34" fretless Ebony board, with dot markers on the pitch at the 3rd, 5th, 7, 9, 12, 15, 17, 19 and 21st positions where the frets would have been. It comes with Hipshot hardware and a Neutrick locking jack as standard and the string spacing at the bridge is about 18mm. It is fitted with a [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/East_Preamps_U_Retro.html"]John East U-Retro[/url], with black controls, and has an exceedingly wide range of tones as you would expect.. It weighs in at about 10½ lbs according to my bathroom scales and is in tip top condition with no visible marks or scratches. Comes with a gig bag. Yours for only [b]£395[/b] + postage

    [quote name='deepbass5' timestamp='1356700260' post='1912568'] Twas me Andy held this over for me to try today. Just want to say to those who can't just pop down the road that it's a nice bass and has got me thinking :gas:My reason for not buying is more to do with GAS guilt and the wifes birthday in two weeks. Than any issues with the bass. I was also thinking towards a fretless project with this and feel now that this could end up an expensive experiment. Sorry Andy and good luck. [/quote] No worries Paul, and thanks for the bump!

    Hi Mert, 15 quid should do it.
  22. andyonbass
    Still up for sale!

    [quote name='BigBeatNut' timestamp='1356433899' post='1910160'] That's a Xmas bargain for someone ... Considerably less than what I paid for my fretless one. [/quote] Yep! I'm taking a bit of a hit here, but Its just gathering dust at the moment, I did look at the cost of a fretless neck from Status, but the cost would be prohibitive as Rob is not tooled up for wooden necks any more. An unlined board might have been a possibility, but the edge markers in the normal (between the frets) position would probably confuse me! New instrument in coming at the weekend so I need the space!
  24. andyonbass
    I would say 18mm according to my unscientific ruler measurement. Cheers Andy

    Owing to the imminent arrival of a new fretless, I really have to move this great instrument on. [size=5][u]Now down to £399 plus shipping[/u][/size] I'm heading up the M6 to Moffat at the weekend so possible meet or delivery could be arranged en route
