[quote name='Golchen' post='1265886' date='Jun 12 2011, 11:47 AM']Doh, there you go tempting me again! Such a beauty of a bass, and sounds real good on the vid as well. Too bad that you are too far away to check it out - or probably a good thing as I REALLY shouldn't be looking at basses![/quote] Distance is no object, sir... I can send you the bass, and if it's not your cup of tea, just send it back within 7 days - you just have to send me a piffling £1150 first, of course, but that's a mere detail! Go on, you know you want to!

[quote name='Golchen' post='1260444' date='Jun 7 2011, 10:43 PM']Does 5 knobs not seem a bit excessive for a 1 pup bass???? What do they all do? I really shouldn't even be remotely considering this, but out of interest where in Surrey doth it reside?[/quote] It's a bit of an array, I agree, but I promise you they all have a use! The five knobs are: 5-position coil tap selector (have a listen to the sounds on the YouTube link on the initial post) - these are the various permutations of the two? coils individually, together, in series, and parallel - I know that only makes 4, but I'm not sure exactly what the 5th position is, volume with active/passive push/pull, treble cut/boost, mid cut/boost, bass cut/boost. I'm just off the A3 between Woking and Guildford - PM me if you fancy coming over for a looksee.

[quote name='Soliloquy' post='1260098' date='Jun 7 2011, 07:02 PM']I'd be interested, if my Overwater 6 string sells.[/quote] Very nice bass... someone will have it, but not me, unfortunately... I have enough trouble with 5 strings...

Nice! I used to have a Caramel Burst one a few years back - this looks even prettier. A bump for a beaut of a bass...

Still for sale, but seriously considering withdrawing it. I did a little set up and gave it a whirl through my main rig today, and it sounds great and plays so beautifully... be quick if you want it, before I change my mind about selling!

Right, grit my teeth... FINAL price drop... £1150. If it doesn't go at this price, I'm keeping it! Actually, might be a good move for when my back finally goes...

Did I mention that at only a whisker over 8 lbs, it's light as a feather, but with a big sound?? (Have a look at the YouTube clip at [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAhqQQHVrTE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAhqQQHVrTE[/url] )

[quote name='Hamster' post='1255575' date='Jun 3 2011, 03:34 PM']Scale length = String spacing at bridge = Thanks! [/quote] Scale length, 34", string spacing at the bridge, a comfy 19mm.... make me an offer - I might say yes!

[quote name='Nickytwister' post='1249616' date='May 29 2011, 08:31 PM']I had a 751 in Vegas last year - brilliant. Paul Turner & Jimmy Sims swear by them too. A great choice methinks. N[/quote] ...but does this mean I'll have to sell the bairn to buy an aggie 810, Nick??

[quote name='PauBass' post='1249418' date='May 29 2011, 05:18 PM']You are gonna love it, I'm sure. After having played Ampegs, GKs, Ashdowns....I've been using a DB751 for a few months now and, for me, it's the best amp ever! I've played both and I pefered the tone on the 751, the change they did to the Mids has made a big difference, not saying I didn't like the 750 because it's a great amp and some people prefer it over the new 751....the 751 it does look a bit cheaper but the tone is there. Good luck with the sale, DB750 an awesome amp people.[/quote] I haven't actually tried a 751, just taking a bit of a flyer on what I know of the 750, and recommendations from people I know. Good to hear more positive words. There doesn't seem to be a review piece on BC yet, perhaps I'll post one once it arrives. Checked your band's site by the way - sounds great!

[quote name='Nickytwister' post='1249298' date='May 29 2011, 03:32 PM']My dear Dave...........you're so compulsive![/quote] Well.... I just shifted my Status, and the '51 Precision 5's on the way on Tuesday pending the usual, so... don't tell the missus!!

Blimey... if only you'd posted this a few days ago - I've just ordered a new DB751 !! Great amp though it was, the DB750's discontinued now though - were they ever 2K ?? Bass Merchant are doing the DB751 for £1499 including delivery...

Final warning bump!
