Just bought a bass from Steve - bass exactly as described, very straightforward and fair communication beforehand, very quickly posted out and well packed. Couldn't have been any easier - super great!

Bought a Fender Jaguar Bass from Peter - very easy transaction, good communication, exactly as described plus some strings thrown in at the last minute for free :-) No problems, thanks Peter!

Gutting, sorry to hear that. An option could be to play sitting? I normally go for a tall bar stool for longer gigs (2h+) as my Geddy Jazz starts to pull my shoulder muscle after a while and ends up hurting down to my lower back the next day. Obviously nowhere nears as bad as your condition but still, sitting lets my leg take the weight and I'm much happier afterwards. Can't say I've ever had any complaints from the audience about sitting either - probably the less they see of me the better!

Not quite within budget (a mere $9000 to preorder!) but this is as light as it gets... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWYFXheilJM

Bought a GenzBenz combo from tobiewharton at the end of 2015 - amp was exactly as described, in excellent condition and offered at a fair price. Organising collection was very straightforward and he helped my other half lift it into the boot of a Mini which was much appreciated! Overall, a refreshingly straightforward transaction with good communication throughout. Thanks tobie!

Just bought an ACG Bass from Dan. Damn nice it is too and as described. Good communication and met me halfway for pickup with no hassles at all. Top notch - highly recommended!
