Happy new year to all Bump

Hi MBA,

Thanks very much for the advice. I had a Hohner Jack that was starting to go the same way, so assumed it was a common problem across these kind of bridges.

I'll have a crack at stripping the bridge and greasing. Many thanks for the offer r.e. the inserts - I'll let you know.

Cheers

Graham

Hi Guys,

The 'tuners' on my Steinberger Q4 bridge are impossibly stiff - to the point were I have to tune up with a screwdriver.

Has anyone had similar issues with steinberger hardware and found a solution ?

Thanks in anticipation

Cheers

Graham

Synthetic bump.

Couple of photos of the Microkorg and the Roland Piano Plus's added.

I'll add more on request - if anyone wants photos, or any specific photos please let me know. The SY, D50 and CS1X all look pretty much as you would imagine - only with cosmetic usage consistent with age. Keybs aren't as exciting as Basses to look at I find..

Never seen one of these before - not interested in buying, just curious.

Body shaped and refinished or genuine rarity ?

Any ideas ?

[b]NOW SOLD[/b] [s]Roland Piano Plus EP11 ​

I have two of these. Early 80's analog electric pianos. These sound very quirky and come with built in drum sounds from the TR series (!).

They are also a useful source of spare parts for the more collectible Roland Synths of the period (same keybed as a Juno 60). I loathed to break these up for spares though.

1 of them is in good condition comes with the very rare original accessories - Roland gigbag, Keyboard cover and sustain pedal. £150 for this one

The other one is a little bit more sorry for itself cosmetically, but still working nicely. £60

Great guy - brought my Kif acoustic bass and generously supplied coffee and chat ! Highly recommended guy to do biz with.

Any interest ? Might be up for trades on interesting synths (Auturia Minibrute etc)

Any takers ? Might be up for swaps for an Auturia Minibrute or similar..

Now sold subject to payment. Thanks for the interest guys.

Hi Scrumpymike, and thanks for answering alyctes. Exactly as the man says - Paul Rose (Prose) was building basses in (I think) Lancashire a few years ago. Sadly I think he has stopped building which is a real shame since he did some really cool and interesting stuff - like this :-

http://basschat.co.uk/topic/88228-prose-bass-short-scale-headless-price-reduction/

The fretless is a really excellent little bass - I'm only selling because as I say I hate nice instruments not getting used, and I've got my beaten up old Ibanez if the fretless urge overtakes me.

Forgot to say - this also has a very useful neutrik locking jack socket on it.

Open to offer to see this go to a good home type bump..

Any interest bump ?

Hi, let me know where you are - I travel a fair bit so might be able to deliver / meet up. I should be clear r.e. the case. It comes with a Warwick Cello gigbag. I don't know if it would fit in a cello hardcase (might be slightly the wrong shape).

The wife actually quite likes it - its certainly a talking point.

Any interest bump..

Bit of a bump..

Hi S

Thanks.

Its a very cool thing - I used it for a couple of pub jams acoustically and its certainly got enough volume to sit behind an acoustic and vocals. i would say its slightly less loud than a double bass, but rather louder than any small bodied acoustic bass I have come across, its certainly got a lot more warmth and bottom end as well.

I woudn't want to put it up against a kit but that said - a little busking amp would give it enough to cut through most things at the low end.

Dimensions

Total Length = 49 inches

Width at widest point of body = 21 inches

Depth = 5 inches.
