Maybe interested in trades + or - cash..... If its a trade against a bass, I prefer active 5's, maybe a 6 if its nice Not looking for 4's, Fender, Warwick or Ibanez (sorry!). Another trade option could be an Eventide Eclipse. Whatcha got?

Hi there from a Southerner (Aberdeen!!!). Welcome aboard the good ship Basschat. At this rate there might be enough people to get a local Bass Bash together
I've just seen them over the last couple of days. I like the looks of a couple of the designs on the website ([url="http://www.rmiuk.biz/"]http://www.rmiuk.biz/[/url]) and pricing doesnt seem too bad (depends on what you actually get though ) I get the feeling they are using eastern manufacturing whilst designing and finishing in the UK. There are some vids on YouTube

If you want to keep the pickups but dont like the rough look of them, try painting them with Hammerite or Japlac. These paints are usually hard wearing and fill in a lot of the scratches. Might be an option
Party Started (Pink) and Sweet Dreams (Eurythmics)........we start with Part Started, go into Sweet Dreams......and then play both at the same time! Half the band singing one and half doing the other....it actually works

I've not really had chance to properly dissect the rig to have a massive look as[b] [u]I only notice it at gigs with the band [/u][/b]as I don't practice all that loud.......

As well as all the points mentioned above, have the guitarist(s) changed their sounds / volumes? They could be masking your frequencies! Don’t forget to use the phrase “Oi you!…get out of my spectrum!” …lol

I'm a member of the Institut[b]ion[/b] of Mechanical Engineers don't ya know.....[/quote]
Sorry.....the detail orientated pedant in me broke loose Good trait for an engineer I hear. Anyway....back on topic....I'm another IMechE engineer who missed that lecture and would be interested in understanding why.
Sad to hear your having to sell her on so soon. I sold / traded this with Harry for his Smith Fusion Anniversary 5 and can recommend trading with him. As he says, the bass is beautiful and although I did quite a lot of gigging with it, it really IS in showroom condition! The original sales link for bigger pics is here : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/202011-sold-ken-smith-bsr6eg-limited-edition-sold/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/202011-sold-ken-smith-bsr6eg-limited-edition-sold/page__fromsearch__1[/url] Good luck with the sale
I was a bit sceptical about the potential tone difference when I first bought it but yes there is a lot more than I thought! Not as much as "regularly spaced" pickups. Using the EQ and blend control and the neck pickup only you get a cross between old school with a bit of punch, both on provides a punchy but not nasal sound and bridge only can do the real nasal if you want. Hope my descriptions help
'Tis Yankee Doodle eye candy. Fender FMT (flame maple top). It was au upgraded variation they did on the Deluxe but with an active circuit. They also did a QMT (quilt maple top). I've fully shielded this ones cavities and fitted Nordstrand pickups and a Babicz bridge. There's some sound files on my bands webpage......

......., then possibly looking at a Fender Jazz 5 Deluxe.

Something like this maybe?.....
