  1. Here she is! Ordered some new strings to put on her and a set of straplocks.
  2. That is a Hudson: Project bass. (or whatever the retailer who purchased them wanted to name them) I used to own one, made in the far east by cort, its a copy of the curbow but with nice looking woods and they slap the name Hudson on it, which is actually a brand created by Cranes music in Cardiff. They are pretty decent basses as long as you get them cheap enough! I got mine for about £210 new, and that was a six string one. The finish was a little rough, but it looked the danglys. Balance is not great when sitting down.
  3. Taking into account that obviously, the higher the gauge the higher the tension, i ordered some Status 40-125 SS Roundcores. Not as high of a gauge that i was after, but still a 1/4 thicker then my current usual sets. if it doesant work out, i'll probably go for the DR's or some Pressure wounds. Cheers!
  4. Hey guys. So i am a light gauge user. For the past 3 years i have been using status Hex core 30-110 stainless steel sets. I feel that i am losing out on tone somewhat due to the low gauge. I recieved a MM Stingray that was strung with La Bella Deep Talkin 760FS flats (45-130), they were the absoloute dogs danglys, felt so smooth, and they had great great low tension. I need a set of stainless steel roundwounds that are bright and zingy, but with ultra low tension which are either 40-125 or 45-130. Wouldnt mind a smooth feeling on em either! But must have the roundwound sound! Any ideas? Rob
  5. Nick sold me his Musicman SR5. Lovely bass with some lovely strings, top bloke. Bass was well packed and was everything it was described as. Highly recommended Rob.

  10. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' post='808916' date='Apr 16 2010, 09:20 PM']Still here [/quote] Pmed again!
  11. Bought a P bass off of me, put a large degree of trust in me to deliver and describe the basses condition without seeing photos! top class bloke! Rob.
  12. [quote name='JMT3781' post='806723' date='Apr 14 2010, 11:41 PM']Any interest in a fretless 5str alembic epic with some cash your way?[/quote] No. Needs to be fretted.
  13. [quote name='evoman' post='795145' date='Apr 3 2010, 05:26 PM']Who? I have found people that will do an epoxy finish on a fretboard, but I don't think that that is the same as the type of hard polyester finish on a buzz board.[/quote] John Shuker. Its a crying shame but i have to relist this. I need a 5 string fretted, and nothing is grabbing me at the price point i currently have, So i am not selling this outright or trading for 5 strings only, with Musicmans with maple fingerboards much preffered.
  14. I found a schematic, gonna take this to my amp tech, easy fix but i dont want to screw it up! Rob.
  15. Co'r blimey guv, i want this! No orange to trade
  16. [quote name='cameltoe' post='803608' date='Apr 12 2010, 12:27 PM']Ah f*** how did I miss this? I'm about to pay £499 for a new one. Crap![/quote] Hey if the buyer doesant like it, wait and see if he would sell it on to you I am not the first person to sell a bass the day i got it because i knew i wouldnt get on with it! Rob.
  17. Hey guys. Just aquired this but already moved it on before i recieved it, took some shots of it though! Lovely looking things ! Would still prefer to the Two-Burst or Black one though!
  18. Bass has been paid for, just got to ship now! Just got back from the guys house with it. Heres some porn
