Great recommendation @anzoid, thanks. I've only ever seen the company advertised in banner ad's and presumed they were a far east import company! I've bookmarked that website and will use them next time I need some parts. @TheGreek - Mick do have a look, they look like a top company to go to if you need parts/tools.

'kin 'ell that's a bass rig!!! GLWTS

Anderton's advertising the new MB TT-800 @£1,149... Link: Anderton's - MB TT-800 That has piqued my interest/GAS/weak will 🤣

Hey @LukeFRC, This is a great thing to have made, thank you. I've gone for Charcoal Frost Metallic, BWB 'guard and a Rosewood 'board:

@FDC484950 - Do you have the weight please?

No problem and I would just like to see you get a successful, happy deal done with it. It's a lovely bass and good luck with the sale 👍

Good spot Davidak! Esteve - It would be good to declare, and photograph, all non-original features/modifications to a bass costing this asking price. I would be very angry if I bought it and only found out once it arrived at my house.

What a mucking fess this all is! My initial thoughts are why should Yamaha be let off financial penalties and GAK get clobbered when they both had to be 'in on it'? To my mind, slap both their wrists monetarily and move on. Then there's the situation with all the other retailers warned about their involvement... ugh. Maybe GAK should get a crowd fund going and ask all the other retailers warned to help them out!

@ped Is it worth a punt at trying to set up a deal with DPD directly? It would be great to have an 'in' with a courier and have our shipping concerns raised and understood from the outset (delicate, large, vintage, high value items, etc) and genuine, reasonable, insurance available? Cheers, Jon

Bought a Fender P bass off Andy and he was upfront, very helpful and a true gent with immediately resolving the niggles I had. A proper BC'er and you can deal with him in confidence. Thanks again, Jon

I remember that bass and thinking 'phwooar' back then! Any pics of it @ezbass ?

Not any more Nick! They have been hitting the stage sharp the last few years. Amazing what a mega-multi-million $ tour does to ones attitude 😂

Don't get me wrong Ubit, I have no hope of it happening. I'm more concerned that the websites for Gn'R, Ticketmaster & THFC are not doing/saying anything about it!

Got a weird one here - Guns N Roses, Tottenham Hotspur, 29th May. Still on, no cancellation or postponement at the moment!!!???

I had a tuner, boost and EQ plugged up and all was well. I then bought 2x TC pedals (HoF2 and Flashback2) and one was plugged into a switched output (and was fine) but the one on the non-switchable outlet wasn't working properly. After a chat with a knowledgeable fellow I tried the other TC pedal on the other switched output and bingo, it worked perfectly! He said this is not uncommon and a grey area. YMMV, etc but just a heads up

Beware - I have that PSU and the 6x non-switchable 9V outlets are 300mA combined, not per outlet. I found out the hard way!

A classic look for sure and echo all the praise/GAS above!!!

It sounded to me like he needed a No. 2 and was under pressure getting the song done 😀

Interesting that such huge news is announced by the notorious April Foolster Kiwi on April 1st... 🤣

There will be a slight latency (probably un-noticable) with the digital mic's but that's about it!

I owned this bass before Paddy and it is a cracker indeed. Great bass, great price and top BC'er - GLWTS!

To expand - I used my one through 2x Barefaced Gen1 Compacts (1x15 cabs) and it was all there sound wise. Incredible. Loved it. But it just broke me physically humping it around and lifting it onto the top of the cabs. It was like you needed to be a cross between a weight lifter and a furniture removal expert getting it about. I had it mounted in a lightweight 4u ABS case so nothing silly going on there.

I think it was @Happy Jack who once said that the SVT II Pro actually produces the sound in your head when you think of big valve amps. I totally agree with this and it was only the weight of the mother that made me sell it!

Paddy bought my Limelight bass off me and it was a pleasure to meet him and do the deal. Thanks, Jon
