  1. bump for a super price on a super cab!
  2. argh! not ready yet! In August it seem...
  3. don't sell this beauty, you know you'll regret it!
  4. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  5. ok I wanted to swap them as I prefer the small ones and bought that when I did a bigger order at Thomann, but I was too dumb to read the order and got the XL ones (larger) http://www.thomann.de/gb/dunlop_jazz_plektren_iii_xl_rot_24.htm I wanted a swap but nobody loves me: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/197351-for-swap-dunlop-jazz-plectrums-iii-xl-for-non-xl/ You can pay gak to send you 6 for £4 plus shipping, or Thomann to send you £24 for £8.50 plus shipping, or you can send me £8 and I'll post them to you. The bag is still unopened... It's a deal, if you use them. In my case, it is a plastic bag on my desk... pa
  6. a quick update... it seem that, after flooding and other building problems have slowed down the production, I should receive this bass late May... stay tuned!
  7. Pierre Laporte. I have put a picture of the guy on this thread, and you'll need to call him to Montréal's phone number +1 514 521 9310. There is a bit of a waiting time, he has no assistant and has been doing everything by himself for the last 40 years... but because he is Montréal's top luthier, he is so busy with the A-listers there that he has no time for websites/build-diaries/anything... the great advantage for us is that he is relatively cheap for the quality. I have never tried a bass that I would have swapped for his... http://basschat.co.uk/topic/105773-six-string-tunomatic-bridge-with-rmc-piezos/page__p__1221508__hl__rmc__fromsearch__1#entry1221508
  8. now I double GAS... this german thing, and one customised Minimat... better get offline now! Have a free bump!
  9. definitely a serie 1, I suggest you change the thread name... I own both, A-B'd them and serie 1 sounds definitely better to my ears anyway!
  10. I bought a bag of 24 of these, and I wanted the bag of 24 non-XL ones. If anyone has a bag they want to swap... mine are the red ones, the bag is not even opened! I just messed it up on a larger Thomann order... p
  11. Thanks for the props, I'll pass the love to Pierre next time I seem him ;-) both are B > C. both are 35" scale too.
  12. ok I finally had the time to take pictures... First is a custom 6-string neck-through. Ebony fingerboard. Sugar maple body and neck, seasoned for 20 years before used. Barto quad coils passives. Made by Pierre Laporte, a fantastic luthier based in Montréal. And this second one is also from Pierre Laporte. A custom 6-string acoustic. Based around the Thomastik-Infeld nylon strings, it has a cedar top, mostly a classical guitar, but lower ;-) Ebony fingerboard. RMC piezo. I could have show more pictures of each, but it takes ages to do and I've got to play them now ;-) Let's finish with a quick picture of the master luthier in his show, checking on my tuning (I am in the UK now so I adjust the basses myself for many years... his scrutiny was a little intimidating ;-) [sharedmedia=core:attachments:79139]
  13. pictures and serial number (and/or confirmed vintage) are usually what people are looking for in that market... just trying to help ;-)
