  1. Absolute bargain this!! for another of Alan's excellent basses.. GLWTS Graham๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  2. I owned a Guild B301 F fretless..Another regret of mine selling it!! Brilliant basses these with a wonderful comfortable/slim neck profile..In a World where people pay crazy money for old Fenders and Rick's, this is an out and out BARGAIN! Wish I had the money...... GLWTS๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  3. Ok for this quality of build, my last price before withdrawing is ยฃ200 shipping inclusive..Bargain๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  4. I keep coming back to look at this amazing bass, and regretting I sold it! The neck is a sheer joy to play..The Walnut in the Headstock,well Oooft!! Stunning..More importantly Philip @Abjatar great bloke to deal with. GLWTS again๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  5. Beautiful looking, sounding, and playing Ibanez Artcore AB 140 bass..in amazing condition..9.25 out of 10 only one slight chip in lacquer on headstock 34 scale. Maple top and sides 3 piece Maple/Mahogany/Maple neck. One Musicman style humbucking pickup. Volume pot. Tone pot. Sounds brilliant acoustically by itself..so neighbours, family shouldn't grumble!!! Though with the simple volume and tone very versatile.. The build quality exceptional..fitted with a new set of Rotosound RS66LB 35-90 Shipping to mainland UK included in price.. Any questions please ask.. Absolute bargain this..๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  6. Wow..used to be mine, and another real regret having to sell.. Pictures are great here, though the bass when seen in person, even better, the spalted maple top, and Birdseye maple fingerboard just wonderful examples of Alan's amazing luthiership..Sounds amazing too!! Somebody will be really happy with this! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ @Embra
  7. Would just like to say, as with all ACG basses..Brilliant luthiership and this is a give away price! GLWTS๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  8. Still here! A lot of top, top quality luthiership from Alan..for a give away price! GLWTS๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  9. Totally stunning bass..Alan once again, has knocked it out of the park in sheer craftsmanship..AMAZING!!! Enjoy your new bass @WinterMute ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘
  10. Graham..just bought a beautiful Ibanez of me..Top lad and a great transaction.. Thanks Graham๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  11. Absolute fantastic finishing Job by Bow finishing (take note Warwick๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜)on this bass..Sure it will play as good as it looks! Good luck with the sale of this beauty! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  12. Purchased an original Arpege Delta metal fretless earlier this year and in the pocket of the case was a Vigier Excess scratchplate!! YES WEIRD..So if anybody with an older excess in need or looking for a scratchplate..All I ask is shipping costs..Any questions please ask.. Cheers. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  13. Yes this the same one thanks @Sparky Mark sounds the business๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  14. Just got this Trace Elliot Series 6 GP12 and 1220 Cab yesterday! Sounds amazing! Condition like it has just come out of a time capsule! Very very happy bass player๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘
  15. Hi Ped..I have emailed Ben at HTD last Friday to see about a potential last chance order..and yes Patrice is retiring, and will be announcing very soon. He is completing existing stock model spec orders..So there goes my one off imetal fretless passion 1V in transparent Black with gold hardwear! (lol) ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  16. Excellent playing and sounding Ibanez Premium bass.. I acquired the bass from @bigthumbPaul on this forum at the start of the year..in a great transaction.. Advertising for the price paid which is an out and out BARGAIN!! Includes shipping to mainland UK. Reason for selling..I own a beautiful 89 NT Thumb 4..and this Ibanez matches it in aesthetics,sounds, and most importantly to me, playability! The Warwick Thumb is going nowhere..so a chance to grab a 2018 Ibanez Premium bass at less than half price..Only two small minor dinks on the headstock, other than that as new! 3.4 Kg 34inch Scale 24 fret 38mm nut Mahogany body Gloss Mojito Lime green top in flame maple Wenge/bubinga neck Rosewood fingerboard Satin finish Slim neck with titanium support rods..Very stable.. Norstrand Big Spilt pickups..(Brilliant) active/passive switch (9v) 3 way mid frequency adjustment switch (very versatile) volume/ blend /bass/ mid/ and treble control knobs..(treble works as tone control in passive mode) Gotoh machine heads monorail bridge..easy adjust.. stunning abalone inlays. Padded gig bag.. relatively new RS66LB strings on it. and adjustment hex keys.. if in the Edinburgh, You're very welcome to try out..Any questions please ask..pm me Cheers ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  17. I would just like to put a last point in here about Vigier basses.. I have owned now, 7 different Vigiers! Very very fortunate to still own 3! Three Arpege basses, a series 1V (2005) and two Series 1 (1984) and (1986) Passion basses. 2 Series 11 (1986) and (1987) and 1 series 111 (1992) and fairly recently an Excess original (2015) Everyone of these beautiful instruments over the evolution of Vigier history, have had the most stable and ridiculously comfortable necks! The early series 1 Arpege basses only needed the minimal amount of truss rod adjustment. You really, if given a chance to play a Vigier, will then wholey fully appreciate just how amazing the necks and these basses are.. Good luck again Patrice and thankyou for the giving the pleasure to bass playing๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  18. I remember watching the amazing nomeansno bass player Rob Wright playing through one of these with his beaten up precision bass on the Wrong tour. NEVER have I heard a bass, sound so good, apart from the opening bass notes of Hanging around by JJ and that is praise indeed, for the old Acoustic amps and cabs!!!! Good luck with your sale๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘
  19. Sad news.. I remember playing my first Vigier Passion series 11 bass at The bass centre in Wapping in 1987!! Even had hair then!! I vowed whenever I could rustle up enough money, I would own one..Easier said than done.. In 2009 I obtained a 1993 Vigier passion 111 custom from California..So only 21 years later..lol Truly wonderfully designed, boutique basses and guitars from Patrice, with his ground breaking designs and inventions.. I'm still not a 100% how the electronics work? (Joking) but still sounds amazing. So good luck to Patrice and his team and thanks for the wonderful history and fantastic instruments..Still get a thrill whenever I see a Vigier for sale on this forum๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  20. I owned this beautiful Vigier before selling onto @Abjatar Yet another of life's bass regrets! These early Arpege basses come up so rarely for obvious reasons, they are that good! Somebody will be very happy here๐Ÿ˜ GLWTS
  21. Total beauty, Great price too! I an surprised this is still here. GLWTS๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  22. Just took my basschat app of the phone lasted two days!!๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‚ Basses for sale, arguably as addictive as nicotine, alcohol etc,etc,etc regardless of whether you can feed your addiction for GAS or not!! Must resist."You will be happy, and have nothing!" Eeerhhm๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  23. I Remember buying a Wal pro1 fretless for the incredibly cheap sum of ยฃ400 in the mid nineties!! Something about buying your dream bass, and being totally let down after a couple of days!! The reality was it weighed the weight of a forrest!! The neck was chunkier than a box of Yorkie chocolate bars!! On the plus point, looked really good! The electronics were just amazingly good! So ironically enough sold it a couple of months later for the princely sum of ยฃ350 of which I don't regret..I guess people were not so into Wals then? lol๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜ It didn't rankle with me to see it up for sale a couple of years ago on eBay for offers over ยฃ3.5k..If I had a spare ยฃ350, sorry I still wouldn't buy one again..It's horses for courses I guess..Sorry Wal owners just my humble opinion!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  24. Just found this thread.. Also having owned these three basses back in the day! I still own an 89 Thumb..Hands down winner, is the Thumb in growliness!!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ
