Well, I'll give myself a can't believe it either BUMP [quote name='BottomE' post='1271733' date='Jun 16 2011, 05:07 PM']Hehe i sold my 5 strings for that reason. I think i look a better bass player having to squirm up and down the fretboard than benefitting from the positional advantages a 5 string provides. Have another "i can't believe you haven't sold that beautiful Hamer" bump on me...[/quote]

5 string is just a 4 with an extra thumb rest ..... it is in very good nick for it's age. [quote name='BottomE' post='1268261' date='Jun 14 2011, 10:25 AM']OMG and damn that Hamer looks absolutely beautiful. If only it were a 4 string. Have a lovely Hamer bump on me.[/quote]

Hi, That is something worth considering indeed. The filter bases preamp is awesome wrt the tonal pallet you have, but I usually keep my EQ pretty much in one setting so it is just too much. Another plan is to make a fretless out of it. That would pretty much be an awesome thing as well. But, first of all let's see if I can get some interest to buy or trade. I would really want another Spector or a high quality Jazz derivative or even the mother of rock basses (not sure what that would be though ..). [quote name='david_l_perry' post='1263313' date='Jun 9 2011, 10:32 PM']You could retro fit a john east pre amp...... My ACG Harlot has one of those fitted, same number of knobs and twiddly bits yer honer.....Alan fitted it in my last Harlot and my new Harlot is having the same. The East pre amps are very good and more 'traditional' in terms of what we are used to (ie active bass treble and sweepable mid) Alans EQ's are an amazing bit of kit, it just does not suit all.....my brain is far to simple to gain the benefits of the filter based EQ's in the ACG's so the more standard John east circuit fitted the bill for me. Best of luck with the sale - Sure it wont take long Dave[/quote]

Bumpage, new pics available

CHEERS Jim! I feel a bit ambivalent about the ACG, love the looks and it plays well. But the EQ really is not what I am looking for after recording some and gigging it. I'm sure the ACG will find a proper home.... and if not I am going to do the unthinkable and replace the preamp with an Aguilar or have it defretted, because I think the EQ would work really well for fretless. [quote name='BigJim' post='1262637' date='Jun 9 2011, 02:24 PM']bump for Hazbeem, Fantastic bloke and the ACG used to be mine. Buy with him with 100% confidence. Good luck bro, Jim[/quote]

No responses to keep me up there BUMP.

SOLD PLEASE REMOVE

Hope you still have a rig to test the NS5 on later this week Have a bump on me...... [quote name='ziggydolphinboy' post='1250603' date='May 30 2011, 07:28 PM']Ahh Thank you to be fair the 4x10 is the heaviest and the amp head , the horn and 2x10 are light, yep i spent alot of time and ebay/basschat watching to get this , and now im commited to a new rig every time i play this i love it , but my house and bank aint big enough to have the two. horn unit sold and the 2x10 is on hold till wednesday , i will get the trace again one day im sure but i think my new rig will take care if my needs.!!!![/quote]

I believe I know exactly what's going on. Northern Europe beckons I think........ cryptic enough? [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1235163' date='May 18 2011, 08:19 AM']You all have to wait and see... It's Roscoe flavoured and has 6 strings though [/quote]

Hi fellow Bass Chatters, I have 2 Spector NS-6XL basses, you know the handmade in NY 6 string mega basses If I am realistic, I only need 1. So, my question of course is, would anybody be interested in buying my 2002 Quilt Maple Top NS6XL? This is the older of the 2 I have. Serial number 0017. Pricing on these is quite difficult, they are incredibly expensive new. If I look at similar basses and their 2nd hand prices I would say the bass should fetch around £1950-2000. I am pretty firm on the price and I will only sell for the right price. Trades are possible, I find myself getting back into 5 stringers as well. 6ers and 4rs I have a plenty. I would consider a (partial) trade against: Spector NS-5XL, even EURO XL, Musicman Stingray Classic 5, FBass BN5 and maybe something I can't think of right now. No Fenders please, they bore me. Bass is in the Netherlands, but I am in the UK (London area) regularly.

Fair comment Shep, sometimes it's the little things that count. And for a fact I know that a Spitfire has a complete different character then any Roscoe, although the neck on my Rumour is lightning fast. The RIM is just dead sexy though......., if only I was Mr. Loads O' Money!!!! Good luck with selling both Shep, no way will you be stuck with them. The price is good on both and although must of us mortals (before I had my Spector 6s I sure as hell was) are a bit scared of 6 strings, I am pretty confident the right buyer will pop up sooner or later. Haz [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1216821' date='May 1 2011, 08:47 PM']I think it's about what just 'works'. The RIM and GB are stunning and very different. I'm just finding I love the Roscoe Bart tone and the neck on my Century standard (and other Roscoe 6's) I've played are the most comfy I've played. If the GB and/or RIM don't sell, then I'll not be bothered. They are stunning instruments that will last a life time. Shep[/quote]

Wow, really lovely example of a sixer. I have played Roscoes and although they make good basses I can't see why you would sell the RIM or GB in favour of a Roscoe.

OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH, very nice. Would match my 2 NS6-XLs very nicely. What bottom price or what trade material are you looking for??? PM me? Cheers, Haz
