  1. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1420276063' post='2647347'] Awww keep it mate you know you will only miss it and end up buying another that will cost you more in the long run but GLWTS anyway [/quote] It is being replaced with a B3K 2.0, to use alongside the B7K so I effectively add a second channel to the preamp. The voicing of the tone suits me more
  2. That sandwich of woods for the body is stunning! GLWTS!
  3. Been looking at the 50th anniversary Jazz at Bass Direct a lot recently, and this is also very lovely! In the flesh, how do the two colours (candy red) compare?
  4. Needs to go, this. Final drop to [b]£220[/b]. No trades, please.
  5. Bugger off, Dolphin hoarder
  6. I'v nearly bought it 3 times at last count! I think he wants it withdrawn off memory but thought it worth asking
  7. Great pedal I enjoy mine most in the lower drive settings, less is more for me with this pedal, I use Darkglass pedals for the heavier drive and it works brilliant with these. The bite switch very much off with a little treble boost instead, and speaker emulation on, sounds great for recording
  8. Is this still available Torben?
  9. I did think the same, awful. Wilko has been through an awful lot and was only weeks/months away from death as I recall, so I am sure that plays a part. Doesn't excuse Norman though, he was well off.
  10. And sold. Thanks for all the interest, folks
  11. [quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1419984618' post='2644704'] Looks superb! If only all Thumbs were made like this. [/quote] What, all Thumb basses lightweight, well balanced and tonally flexible?? It would never catch on
  12. [quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1419938696' post='2644069'] Fantastically comfortable bass to play, weighs almost nothing! Good luck with the sale Kev [/quote] Cheers bud, the neck is wonderful on this, very much not the baseball bat associated with the period!
  13. Awesome old skool B7K!
  14. Lots of interest but for the moment is still here. Also listed on eBay Trade-wise, I am looking at SS1 or SSII 4 strings. Will consider other trades with cash my way, but ideally a cash sale on this one.

    Fodera anyone?

    Incredible, but its a Fodera. This is how much they are, and the pricelist does show that these basses go for $20-35k new. What I find far more incredible is someone paid this, and is now selling it so quickly.
  16. Hands down, nicest looking Shedua Wal I ever did see. Stunning! And a superb price too!
  17. Up for sale I have the holy grail of Limited edition Warwick, the Dirty Blonde, 4 string version. Limited edition custom shop built Warwick from 2006 in great condition. Comes with original Warwick Hardcase and complete user kit with certificate. A few marks here and there as can be expected for a 8 year old gigging bass, but as you can see from the pictures in gorgeous condition. Stunning Poplar Burl top, incredible Tigerstripe Ebony fingerboard and the bass weighs about 8.5lb. It has been upgraded with the fantastic BRASS Just-A-Nut III from the frankly awful tedur JAN II and is now looks superb.

    Sold

    Ah, it's back for sale! I have a dirty blonde to sell first, but very much interested in this!
  19. [quote name='Petezzz' timestamp='1419593982' post='2641084'] OK maybe I am mistaken that they all had flat fretboards - anyway I wanted mine a bit more curved. And I found the end result smoother to play. thanks Pete [/quote] So, the radius is more curved than the standard, do you know the measurement? If it was a custom change, maybe it will be written on the inside of the control plate if you don't know it?
  20. I'll have a Penguin if one is going. Just let me know where I can pickup.
