  1. Sold on Ebay
  2. Back up for grabs bump
  3. [b]SOLD ELSEWHERE[/b] This is a lovely starter or spare guitar. It's made by Godman, but it's been customised to read "Gisbon" on the headstock with a professionally printed logo. Very convincing it is too... Its a bolt on neck and the guitar has had a few knocks, but there are no dinks that get in the way of playing it. It's well set up and sounds really good. Obviously not up to Gibson standard, but it doesn't sound offensive at all. It comes with a strap and if you ask me nicely, I'll even chuck in a few plectrums. £80 gets it if you can pick it up from Halesowen in the Wild West Midlands. Postage should be about a tenner.[attachment=144019:gisbon.jpg][attachment=144020:headstock.jpg]

  5. SOLD SOLD SOLD on Ebay With a heavy heart and heavier overdraft, I offer up my beautiful Japanese Fender P. I bought it from kennyrodg of this very forum late last year – he in turn snagged it from Burritobass, also of this forum in early 2012, so you can be sure of its provenance. It’s lived a life, but it’s got Mojo for miles… It has a SD SPB1 p/up and wiring kit/pots etc from Kiogon and genuine Fender replacement Vol/Tone knobs. According to mckendrick (a man who knows his Fenders…) “It's a '57ri body with a '62ri neck. The neck has the FB3 tuners... so most likely it'll be from a CIJ PB62-US, where US would indicate the body it came from would have been fitted with US pickups. The neck plate has 'FENDER' on it so given it came with that body, it would put the body in earlier MIJ territory. Looks like basswood so it would have been a stock MIJ '57, in which case it's got a wise choice of pick-up mod”. I have no reason to doubt that. “What does it sound like?”, I hear you cry… It sounds like a classic P. Lovely comfy neck, splendid two tone burst and it’s loaded with some fairly new Fender flatwounds. What’s not to love? It’s got some dings, but nothing too terrible. £350 to pick up from sunny Halesowen in the Wild West Midlands or posted for £370. No trades, ta! Feel free to come and have a tweak, but bring biscuits. No one ever brings biscuits…[url="http://s306.photobucket.com/user/rushbo1/library/Japanese%20Fender%20P"]http://s306.photobuc...se%20Fender%20P[/url]
  6. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1370542301' post='2102487'] Do you mean like [url="http://www.bas-extravaganza.nl/?page=bassen&BassenID=20"]this[/url]? [/quote] I love it! But what I love even more is the fact that the only English phrase on that webpage is "worst project ever"....
  7. Good work fella!
  8. Amp sold - just the cab remaining.
  9. As a young and impoverished, budding Bassist, I owned a number of low budget or copy Fender Precisions. When I was able to afford a Fender Precision, I bought one. As a young and impoverished, budding Bassist, I always wanted a Rickenbacker, but I could never find something in my price range to even try. When I was able to afford a Rickenbacker 4001, I bought a Fender Precision.
  10. [quote name='ChrisF' timestamp='1369174210' post='2085983'] Strange question... any idea how heavy the two items are ?? Im after a set up, but weight is an issue, due to motorcycle injury cheers...Chris [/quote] Not a strange question at all sir...Weight may be a little prohibitive (unless, following your motorycle injury, various limbs were replaced with turbo charged mechanical ones, a la The Six Million Dollar Man...). The cab weighs in at a slender 91lbs and the head is a shade under 40lbs. The upside is that in the event of a nuclear war the cab would make an ideal shelter...
  11. Pre Eurovision bump
  12. It's still here laydeez an' genlemen...all loud and lovely. A few admiring glances, but it's still in my spare room doing nothing. It's a bargain, dangnabbit!
  13. [quote name='wally8' timestamp='1368018741' post='2072085'] Ive got the same set up but the older firebass 700 head. They are very loud, very clear and sound killer if u put a VT bass or bdi21 through the fx loop. My firebass head has a side handle which makes it easy to carry, dunno if the nitro does. [/quote] Yep, it's present and correct on the Nitro too.
  14. A little interest, but still here. So, bump....
  15. Yep, still available....
  16. Smart. Group hug everyone...?
  17. I paid my money and I made my choice. I like it here. I do dip a toe into off topic every now and then....sometimes its fun, sometimes less so. Kinda like life. Sadly, just because a person straps on a bass every now and then, it doesn't make them automatically, a warm and wonderful human being. Sometimes they open their mouths and let their guts rumble and we all have to put up with the smell. T'was ever thus.
  18. I can't believe we are this far into the thread and no one had mentioned the carpet...
  19. It's an obvious fake. Look where that decal isn't. And they never made them in that colour. Reported.
