  1. [quote name='Me And My Bass' timestamp='1371465367' post='2114088'] Hey, I was pricing up a ACG build last week! Lovely basses . . And your six string is beautiful! Unfortunately I don't think I can put in enough cash to even up the deal on it for us. I prob have £150/200 I can put to a deal. Stunning bass though, and exactly what I would be after! [/quote] Thanks matey, Alan's basses are beautiful and sturdy and sound amazing, they come highly recommended by many on here too! No prob about the trade matey, hope it sells soon for ya

    obbm's feedback

    yet another super speedy delivery of top quality cables, once again, obbm is a top chap and his cables are superb!
  3. Lovely ray matey, I always look fondly at rays, they're so easy to play! Not on your list but...how about an acg 6 string type trade? Or... a pair of ibanez blazers fretted n fretless?
  4. [quote name='redstriper' timestamp='1371391114' post='2113234'] Maybe it's because of the cost - £20 is quite a lot to risk if the item doesn't sell or attract a trade. [/quote] Possibly, although, pay once trade as many as you like for 12 months ain't so bad?
  5. It comes and goes, really warmed up a few weeks back and has slowed down again of late... Anyone want to buy my acg 6 string or either of my ibanez blazers ;-)
  6. 1) the band needed a bass player; 2) my best mate was the drummer; 3) I didn't play but was better than the guy auditioning.
  7. Pm'd back matey ;-)
  8. [quote name='Bassandtuba' timestamp='1371273190' post='2111952'] beautiful! Have a bump [/quote] Thanks matey, most kind.
  9. [quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1371243509' post='2111792'] It isn't very clear but are they £350 each or £350 for both? [/quote] Apologies matey, £350 each + uk shipping
  10. you might find a 34" scale fretless p much easier to navigate and intonate, something like an '81 ibanez blazer fretless for example...link in my sig
  11. [s]Somehow (via a variety of trades and swaps) I've managed to end up with a pair of very lovely but surprisingly different feeling and sounding Ibanez Blazer basses I didn't think I'd be doing this so soon after getting my mitts on them but life happens dunnit!? [media]http://www.flickr.com/photos/andy_dye/sets/72157633277713595/[/media] [s]The '80 is fretted (as most blazers were) and has a really rather punchy tone even with the flats on, I'd prefer it to any p-bass I've ever tried without question! Comes with a new-ish and fairly nicely padded Fender gig bag. Nut width = 41mm (1 5/8") Weight = approx 4kg / 9lb[/s] [b]SOLD[/b] The '81 is a fretless, a factory fretless, I don't think many were made (so this would be a rarity maybe?), the tone is very sweet, super vintage p with a lovely gentle mwah/swell if you linger on a note much like any fretless p. Comes with a similar aged hardcase that looks the part and all the clasps function but are getting a bit loose. Nut width = 40mm (just over 1 1/2") Weight = just over 4kg / 9lb [s]Both are [/s]really solidly made and while not especially light, doesn't feel heavy to me when worn. Price, [s]£350[/s] £300 [s]each[/s] inc UK shipping, local collection / meet up within about an hours drive of Sheffield is also an option.[/s]
  12. If I can sell a couple of bits I've got offered about the place I'm in for this matey
  13. Interested in a trade for my acg 6 string? Link in my sig?
  14. [quote name='Norm' timestamp='1370960794' post='2107969'] I dwelt too long thinking about that fretless blazer, by the time I'd made up my mind it had gone! Please pm me if you ever want to sell it? ;-) Cheers, Norm [/quote] No prob matey, consider yourself first in the hypothetical queue
  15. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1370886353' post='2106946'] sad to see you selling this. could you not get the neck reworked to fit you better? [/quote] sad indeed matey, I doubt the neck could be reworked to remove an entire string's width from it though
  16. [quote name='FlatEric' timestamp='1370897870' post='2107244'] You have hit the Mother-load, there! The later Blazer is a Cracker - the 1980 one, is a "A Sleeper!" These "Made for one year" basses are WAY better than many, at ten time the cost. I've got two of them. [url="http://flatericbassandguitar.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/aria-twins-and-pair-of-blazers.html"]http://flatericbassa...of-blazers.html[/url] . . . . and yes, you do need two! [/quote] Beautiful basses mate! They look in stunning nick too! A BL700-NT and a BL700-TV, niiiice
  17. [quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1370943851' post='2107663'] Oh that's clever, i see what you did there..... [/quote] [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1370944014' post='2107669'] I missed it to start with :/ [/quote]
  18. [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1370896074' post='2107188'] Guitarists... put a capo on say the 3rd fret and play D shape, you're not playing a bloody D chord!!!!!! That's all. [/quote] They are playing an 'f'-ing d-shape though, it's just transposed 3 semitones up for capo3...
  19. [quote name='fumps' timestamp='1370940978' post='2107606'] I cant play today.....I have managed to have a major underware malfunction this morning.....not only have I managed to come to work with my under strides on back to front I was talking to my boss earlier & a rolled up sock fell out of my trouser leg ....I'm either secreting foot garments from my knees or this is a sign ...... A sign that I'm in fact a daft tw*t [/quote] thankyou for my morning chuckle matey!
  20. [quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1370939149' post='2107568'] Beautiful .... slightly jealous here. [/quote] It's just possible that I may have to sell one or both to finance an incoming ACG but I'll be holding off as long as possible...
  21. [quote name='ziggydolphinboy' timestamp='1370901562' post='2107324'] wow this would go nice with my acg single cut 4:-) [/quote] I think you're right matey, suit you sir
  22. [quote name='TPJ' timestamp='1370873457' post='2106651'] This is a lush bass. Andy brought it 'round mine one day. It plays fantastically and just has so many tones available. Andy is a top chap as well so deal with confidence. Good luck with the sale. [/quote] [quote name='mikekaperys' timestamp='1370883941' post='2106869'] Oh my god.. that's beautiful! [/quote] Thanks for the kind words guys, it really is a delicious piece of work!
  23. [quote name='redstriper' timestamp='1370885964' post='2106928'] I ended up leaving the roundwounds on the G&L, they sound so funky [/quote] Haha, I try to let each bass decide what strings best suit it
  24. I'm the shorter one who looks a bit like a tree...
