  1. WITHDRAWN. I have woken up and come to my senses. I can't afford to take a hit on everything I buy. It's a Great bass which does what I need. Stick.
  2. Yes it's back friendly. My back is ruined and I'm good with it. I'm guessing it's about 8lbs. I'll weigh it properly later.
  3. Long scale 34" mate.
  4. Brand new still in the packet G&L MFD P bass pickup as used in the SB-1 and SB-2 basses. Imported direct from G&L in California at a much greater expense than I'm selling it for here! £85 posted.
  5. Up for sale is my SX SPB-62 P bass in a gorgeous shade of LPB. I bought it new only 2 months ago for £175 but I need to sell it to raise funds for something else that has come up. It is still as new and hasn't even left the house. It even has the plastic film still on the tort pickguard. I'm astonished at how good this bass is for the money. It's lightweight yet balances well, is very resonant when played acoustically and the fit and finish is spot on. It actually needed no setting up upon arrival and was even intonated. I bought it from Waltons in Ireland because I wanted the LPB finish and they were the only place I could find who sold the blue. Maybe they set up their basses prior to shipping? It arrived playing and feeling great anyway. £100 Cardiff area.
  6. Great advice on this thread! I for one definitely need to look into supplements. My elderly father swears by turmeric btw. Regarding stretches, I follow all the exercises in this particular video as part of my morning and evening routine now even if I'm not playing that day. A great help. +a million for staying hydrated!
  7. The Larch.
  8. Utopier
  9. I think you misspelt 'Orvillian'.
  10. That just had me in stitches.. 😙
  11. Common decency with spare ribbing.
  12. £30 posted may be more reasonable. Sold.
  13. I only stream music now. The only place I could play a disc was in the car but our new car doesn't have a CD player, only Bluetooth, so that's that for me. Besides, even I can't scratch an mp3! 😄
  14. That is a beauty! If you find that it really doesn't suit your physicality then maybe getting a 4 string and tuning down a half step will work for you. That way all your open strings will be useful for the flat keys you play in.
  15. SOLD Rotosound Swing 66. Brand new in their packets. Balanced tension for BEAD tuning. Gauges 135 100 75 55. £18 posted. Mint Green 3ply P pickguard. Fits USA/Mex P bass m/b/m. £12 posted. Black TUSQ XL nut for P bass. Brand new in the package 1 5/8" £8 posted. Fender Precision '65-'67 period correct decals x2. Real metallic ink. Bought from Oldfret in the USA. Restoration quality, the best! £15 for the pair, posted. Thanks for looking, Simon.
  16. A used set of Innovation Super Silvers that are played in with life left in them. Great big sound and friendly to your fingers. £35 posted Thanks.
  17. No you're not alone.
  18. A budget way of getting there for you could be a Zoom B3. There's an Acoustic 360 amp and cab simulator and a whole plethora of delays and equaliser options. I love mine.
  19. Dunlop Superbright steels are my favourite rounds for my P bass. Relatively inexpensive, well balanced and an easy tension.
  20. Kind of. The Ultralites took half a pound off exactly, Which felt like more due to the weight coming off at the headstock. Levers and fulcrums etc... Not sure what the knobs and neckplate took off but considering the stock ones were chrome plated brass, going aluminium certainly helped! It was much easier to play and therefore got used a lot more after those upgrades. Cheaper than buying a new bass and going through that whole crap shoot.
