  2. Having a bit of a cull at LRH Towers due to an incoming 55-94, and I know I'll regret this, but.... Letts 5-string Scroll bass with Imp pickup and John East P-Retro preamp. 35" scale, 18mm string spacing at the bridge, 12mm at the nut, both parts removable. Plays wonderfully, sounds great with loads of variety of Stingray/P-bass-like tones, looks beautiful, very light due to the thin neck and body profiles (only a little over 7lbs on my digital bathroom scales) with very good balance, and an absolute steal for a one-of-a-kind hand-made bass. Excellent condition - a couple of very small marks shown in the photographs. A good quality gig bag is included. Sorry, but I'm looking for a straight sale, so no trade offers please. NOW SOLD PENDING THE USUAL...

  3. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1389135165' post='2330615'] Not according to your Missus… [/quote] A fair point, well made! I have this recurring nightmare that's she's on this very forum, lurking, watching my every move... that's not you is it dear??
  4. [quote name='bumnote' timestamp='1388927319' post='2327648'] Thats a steal at that price. I used to have one in that exact spec untill I decided I that 4 strings was quite enough for my proficiency level.I still have 3 laklands and the quality is excellent. Anyone who buys this wont be dissapointed. [/quote] Thanks for the endorsement - they are fantastic basses!
  5. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1389112962' post='2330171'] It's a joke, I think... [/quote] Sorry, too subtle for me.
  6. [quote name='Bikenbass' timestamp='1389051182' post='2329462'] I think you'll find it was all Carol Kaye. [/quote] I'm not sure you're talking about the same song. New York Minute by Don Henley from the album Building The Perfect Beast, has Bob Glaub, Larry Klein and Pino credited on bass. I don't have the track listing to hand, but it certainly sounds like Pino's fretless playing to me.
  7. Where'd it go???
  8. How about one of those "Faker" logos in Fender typeface?
  9. [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1389048075' post='2329412'] I forgot to mention, his bridge was honed and his nut demagnetised to reduce flux capacitance, so all in all it was a sweet deal. [/quote] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjCRUvX2D0E
  10. [quote name='MikanHannille' timestamp='1388929704' post='2327691'] Such bargain. Shame I already placed my order for a different colour! If I have the extra cash I wouldn't mind having two 55-02's! [/quote] You can have two. That's allowed!
  11. [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1388927294' post='2327647'] lucky for me, I don't like that kind of wood/finish... ouch, the USA Laklands are not cheap, eh? [/quote] That's obviously a used bass too - a new 55-94 Deluxe would set you back well over 3K... great basses though!
  12. [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1388761747' post='2325742'] if only it were that simple... No Stingrays made with wide string spacing, I'm afraid and the lakland 55-76 (single MM pickup at the Stingray position) is so rare! The neck on the Lakland 55-02 is wonderful. I never tried the 4-string counterpart, 'though. [/quote] I had never heard of that one until now - and here is one for sale... you wouldn't get much change out of two and a half grand after shipping and import duties though! http://www.thebassplace.com/basses-used-basses-c-17_36/used-lakland-55-76-deluxe-flame-maple-5-string-bass-amber-p-1232
  13. A rather unusual entry in the 'Musical Instruments / Guitars / Bass' category, but I suppose it might make quite a good home for the itinerant bassist.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/IFOR-WILLIAMS-HB511-2012-HORSE-TRAILER-/151203027555
  14. Fantastic (as all his preamps are!) East MMSR 3-band 4-knob preamp for Stingray bought new from John last year - volume, treble, stacked mid with sweep and boost, bass. Boxed with instructions, excellent condition, was only installed for a couple of months, but I've now sold the bass it was in. NOW SOLD pending payment.
  15. A circle? Boring. Surely a crucifix or a swastika would be more rock 'n' roll....
  16. [quote name='lojo' timestamp='1388673405' post='2324621'] He's got most of your old basses [/quote] Dear god, my reputation precedes me!
  17. [quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1388593586' post='2323800'] Has Dave Swift ever played the same bass twice? [/quote] Err, yes, but have a look at his incredible bass collection on his website ( [url="http://www.daveswiftbass.com/pages/basses.html"]http://www.daveswift...ges/basses.html[/url] ) and you'll see why he may have some difficulty choosing...
  18. I've got a Letts 5-string Scroll bass already... yours is very pretty though.... B-E-A-D-G-C... errr... F??
  19. A very pretty thing, but a few too many strings for my poor brain to handle... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7-String-Custom-Made-Letts-Bass-Guitar-with-Aguilar-OBP3-preamp-and-Hard-Case/400635442727
  20. It's a Roadster body, but the headstock looks not quite right - could be either a custom neck, or an early prototype...
  21. Now listed on eBay, so only available for sale here if reserve has not been reached.
  22. Looking out the box and manual and heading for eBay...
  23. Sorry, I'm after a straight sale only, which I admit may be a bit of a long shot this close to Christmas. Plenty of interest, but it's still here. Go on, make me an offer - I can only say no!
