  1. Q: What was the last blue coloured thing you ate?
  2. Used... will kinda hold it's value. I think it's rare to see increases in value and normally it's luck more than planned purchasing! It also depends what you are after... best value for money and workhorse bass for £700 Yamaha BB of some kind... otherwise have a look in the marketplace and see what's out there and looks interesting
  3. and therein starts your next bass... nice flamingo too
  4. we had our baby so risk levels down and I'm about to go back on the rota again! Only Covid risk free space for three ppl in the band so will be interesting as normally it's just acoustic and two singers. The temptation will be to play my my HX stomp and add a load of effects to what I'm doing, that and plus I'm going to presume that most people are listening at home on devices that aren't doing any bottom end anyway... - anybody got any ideas of what I could do tone wise that would be fun?
  5. I could be wrong! This bass looks lovely and went googling to find out what the Bart 9W5 and 9W4 pickups were, apparently Bartolini humbuckers with a coil per string... so five coils per pickup....Roger decribes them as linear hum buckers... I dunno, could be wrong. but low output so the black box is a bartolini booster before the Sadowsky preamp on the PCB https://www.talkbass.com/threads/club-sadowsky.390234/page-81#post-5800314 I don't know what that all means in practice but would love to try this one to find out!
  6. Think the pickups are a coil per string.
  7. surprised this hasn't gone!
  8. I second what this man says
  9. That one doesn’t have coated ebony either - is that a third fretless you need
  10. I’m tempted and I can’t play fretless! I love the look of it!
  11. I just looked that up - a very understated bass that precision!
  12. Woah there’s a little mini version of your profile pic hiding in that photo
  13. What’s the dream?
  14. That was my initial thought too - if they shipped with everything slack
  15. Did the truss not work, or more it was shipped completely unsetup?
  16. are they active or passive EMG in Betsy?
  17. To you?
  18. Invisible Sansamps to murder... a bit of a jump
  19. I wouldn’t call £1600 for a hand built bass Made in the U.K. unreasonable ...
  20. Ooooh I like that
  21. What was it that you were thinking of?
  22. And you have to have a bit of luck to get on the queue! He builds what he wants, if you are fortunate you might get first dibs
  23. You say they are vintage - Would a cheap new hard case be a significant percentage of the cost? Depends on the bass I guess, a £100 vintage from Russia and a £9k 60's fender are very different. If you stuck a sale post up on here and said, I want £x and postage will be £x in the UK plus £50 for a gator hard case or something... that's reasonable
