Cost me less than £100 to have my ABM which wasn't working, diagnosed, repaired, serviced and cleaned up. Bargain really, given the age of it. Fantastic communication before and during having the work carried out too. I think they can pretty much repair any ABM head on site, of any age. Eude

I've just had an ABM EVO II serviced and repaired at Ashdown HQ for very little money in the grand scheme. ABMs are awesome amps, however I think the IIIs were assembled overseas, whereas the IIs and IVs are UK made? Correct me if I'm wrong. Happy hunting! Eude

Same issue here. Something to do with an advertising change? -
Oh, and you'll love the Salace SC E Type shape, it's super ergonomic without looking weird. Eude

I'm 5"6' and shrinking thanks to carrying my enormous children on my shoulders. I reckon a 26.5" 6er might be the first bass that would look about right on me! Eude
-
Awesome! I've been thinking along these lines myself! Will it be tunes B to C? Eude

Completely agree, strings vary SO much in tension and feel too. I use custom Newtone strings on my basses, would to compensate for the loss of tension due to the shorter scale, but I popped a set of stock SIT Silencers on my fretless 6er as I had them lying around, and the tension on them, even though they're designed for 34" scale, is actually really good. Custom strings really help, but as you stated, you might find that regular strings work just as well. Eude

Excellent, best of luck with it! I'd be really interested to hear what you make of the Warwick too, I don't need one, but I have issues. Oh, one other thing to look for is the original Ibanez Promethean P5110 combo >> These are ridiculously good, I used to own one and really regret ever moving it on. Very hard to come by now it seems, but it's the best pro level 1x10 bass combo the right side of £1000, even at the original full price. Eude

There is this on Gumtree... https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-bass-amplifiers/fender-bassman-150-combo-amp/1336206425 It's the 12" version, but equally nice, just not nearly as compact. Eude

Fair enough mate. Not sure why but this little Warwick combo really intrigues me... https://thebassgallery.com/products/warwick-cube-100s-ex-demo Also keep a look out for the Fender Bassman 100 tilt back combos, from the mid 00's I think. They were wonderful little beasts... Eude
-
Have heard good things about the 10 too, nearly bought one myself back in the day. Anyway, The Bass Galley have one at the moment... https://thebassgallery.com/products/swr-workingpro-10 Eude

That sounds fantastic! What strings are you using? Eude
-
Is it any worse than the Katalox I sent you?... Eude
-
Ooooh, I like that!
-
That does sound nice, not quite is intricate as the Warwick, more of a sledgehammer, but it works...

This is intended to be a more traditional, less modern bass, I reckon with that in mind the shape works really well. Have you seen this one? I think it all balances out perfectly, but with an ACG flavour. This will kind of be an inverse of the above, swapping the maple and cocobolo round... Eude
-
That'll be 5 in total, including this RetroB, not a patch on @Scoop though... Salace SC E Type Headless 6 Krell SC E Type Headless Fretless 6 Finn SC Classic 6 TKO Modern 4 RetroB 5 (TBC) They all have very different flavours, but I appreciate that 3 6 string basses is a bit of a luxury! Eude

Well, it's that time again, another ACG build for lucky old me! As most of you know, I now own a few ACGs, but none of them scratch that Jazz Bass itch, so this is the one to do that. It's going to be one of Alan's RetroBs, his nod towards a more traditional styled instrument and quite a departure from his usual stuff. Anyway, here's the nuts and bolts... Number of Strings: 5 Scale: 31.5” Body: Ash Top: Quilted Maple with black veneer Neck: 3 piece Maple/Wenge/Maple Fingerboard: Cocobolo with AI Maple blocks with 0º Radius Pre-amp: John East Uni-Pre 4K Pickups: ACG B Series (probably overwound single coils) Hipshot Type B bridge with 18 mm spacing Gotoh GB720 tuners Hardware Colour: Black That's it, bar a couple of pics...

Apologies, will do, I hope it doesn't say annoying adverts will ruin your every moment on BassChat 😉 Eude

Mentioned elsewhere, but that is STUNNING! Congrats matey, and I once again dof my cap to @Andyjr1515 Eude

Massive ad issue here, one not hit on before, although I am suffering the annoying ones at the bottom too which make the site extremely annoying to use on a mobile. Check out this big B**ger though! It totally mess up all down the page too... I'm using Chrome on a mac, pretty much up to date too, for a change... Eude

I'm absolutely delighted mate. And as for shaving? I'm just trying out a few new looks, hobo, supervillain etcs. Eude

You're right, I read in an interview that SS1 was the first good bass he had and the only one he had during the early days with JK and for all the recording sessions for the first album. Personally, I think that bass sounds marvelous on the album and it's a big part of the overall sound. I think the P Bass thing came once he left the band. Every single bit of footage before then seems to be a Warwick bass. Eude

If it was entirely hand made, a left hander would not be a problem, Warwick now make all the high end stuff with extremely sophisticated CNC equipment, the absolute best of the best. There's obviously a lot of hand assembly and finishing too, but the basic shapes I expect are dictated by the CNC programming. Having said all that, they do seem to be willing to make anything these days, which would result in new CNC programming required, so it's odd that they're limiting the SZ signature off the bat...
