Well after having the bass for a few weeks a fault has developed, the active circuit had stopped working when I went to play the bass on Saturday. I thought maybe the batteries needed changing and got new ones yesterday but still no output when the bass is on active mode, passive mode is fine, a had quick look inside the cavity the houses the electrics but couldn't see any loose wires. Really bummed out but I have emailed Anderton's where I purchased it from and I am awaiting a reply ☹️ John

His user name on ebay is mdphillips1956mark Look him up and prepare for fun !! 😛

Yes he put some absolute shockers on Ebay yesterday, good entertainment though !!

My new SIRE M2 bass, been playing it every day since it arrived

Very, very nice John 😎

My new SIRE M2 4 string John 😎

Gowan - Strange Animal, my son found this song on YouTube and plays it on the PC, I liked it and bought the CD it came from which is fantastic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4eT_0tnj1w

Thanks for that

Love that, can I ask where you ordered that from ?, as I would love something like that for my phone John

Your cat obviously loves the bass as well John

Bargain, Harley Benton's are great value for money and at that price the bass is even better VFM !! John 😎

After having a it for a few days I'm absolutely loving this bass, such a tone monster, the active circuit is a revelation after always playing passive basses The only problem now is it shows up how inadequate my little bass combo is !!, think I need an upgrade John 😎

Thoroughly enjoyed that, fab song and video, nice job John

Play both, I do and enjoy bass and guitar John

Pulled the trigger on a SIRE M2 Version 2 four string bass guitar in a lovely transparent blue at the cost of 247 imperial units from Anderton's. It came well packaged and delivered by a nice man from DHL this morning. Lowered the action a touch and it's fantastic to play, a huge amount of different tones in the active mode (it has passive and active modes), excellent tuning stability and it looks stunning, fantastic maple fret board with lovely rolled edges. Pics below. John

Me and my son are big fans of the JOKER character and we both love this, fantastic John

That's a beauty, nice one John

Are they related to Mr Phillips? John
