  1. I just bought a pickguard. Recommended seller as an easy deal Ed
  2. Any estimated time of arrival or tracking details would be appreciated please
  3. and I have just found the box! Unfortunately it is the most boring box in the world. Plain white with packaging and instructions inside🤣
  4. A really high class reverb, which has become a much sought after. This one is as new. It is boxed and comes with a rubber guard. Superb results.
  5. In good condition. I really like these as they are nice and bright, easy to use. I have another and don't need 2.

  6. Sure will do later. I was hoping to find the box before taking them, not sure where I put it though
  7. hi, you have a message
  8. Thanks, I played one years ago so grabbed this one when I saw it. I really like the sound and feel of them. I have a Peerless version of the Jack Cassidy as well
  9. I think that is more of relevant on the 5's. The 4's have always played well IMHO.
  10. Love these basses, so versitile and refined!
  11. corrected thx
  12. I find that the MFD pickups (both in basses and lead guitars) tend to run hot. The worst bass sound that I have heard was someone playing at L2500 at a festival with the mids cranked. Ouch! My favourite sounds are from an SB2 with some front pickup bias and a passive L2000 sound, obtained when running the volume at about 2/3 thirds. I also had an "M" series sounded great and very natural and easy to dial in If you are finding the signal hot try turning down the volume and you may find that the pickup responds in a more friendly way. My conclusion is that I would love an L1000 but I already have a bunch of nice basses so can't see me getting one any time soon.
  13. Congratulations
  14. Wonderful instruments! GLWTS
  15. I had a 4 for a while and liked it. Overall it was light and I don't remember neck dive being a problem, although it did change my playing stance when playing it. I tended to hold the bass more vertically, not sure why.
  16. I had one of these about 12 years ago. Fantastic pro level instruments! Someone is going to get a bargain.
  17. This very capable bass that is well gigged. These highly specked Korean Legends, were only produced for a couple of years (2004-2006?) before reverting back to a more basic spec. Probably because it coincided with the release of, and competed, with some Czech models. A lovely tone and works well with my pedals. It has been a joy to own and used regularly. Great basses these! This one has a few battle scars. The most notable are a patch of missing paint on the back of one of the horns and a crack at the base of the stacked eq control. Neither would be noticed by an audience. Spec includes: 35"scale neck EMG Hz J & Humbucker pickups EMG B30 3-band circuit Figured maple top 5 bolt neck It is currently wearing flats but I will change back to rounds My only reason for sale is that I have seen something else on BC that I fancy Note: Case and delivery not included, although I may be able to find a case if needed. Trades? A quality semi hollow e.g Chowny, Gretsch, Peerless *not a Cassidy" as I have one. A bass 6/Vi, *not squier
  18. I had a 5, nice and light, neck dive was not a problem due to the light weight. A nice bass
  19. Correct! There are quite a few differences from the original Thunderbirds. The originals were neck through construction and many suffered from neck dive. The studios design tackled those problems with many changes. A good, more solid bridge IMHO, lighter weight construction. A more rounded body, smaller headstock and lighter weight tuners. It retains the Thunderbird vibe, signature sound and electronics. A very "cool" and nice playing bass. I should say that I never owned one of the older Thunderbirds so am happy to be corrected. I played one of the more recent Reverse Thunderbirds, which I liked. I and was looking to buy one when I found this locally and I had to have it. I am already having 2nd thoughts about selling as it would be difficult to find another. The only other one I have seen in this colour was being used by the Molly Karloff bass player a couple of years back. He looked "cool as" but he is a lot younger than me and had more hair! He had removed the pickguard so it looked very red under the lights.
  20. Something a bit different from yours truly. A love song about dismemberment and just in time for Halloween! “Dismember me” experiments with guitars, drums and sound effects. “At times, the bass guitar drives the song, while Adrian Tucker’s drums roam wild”. Dismember Me was inspired by the Van Gough severed ear story, the music of The Who and the 2002 psychological horror film “May”. eddiemole.
  21. I found a video of a similar bass here:
  22. Hi all, I reckon I could get the sound I'm after out of one of these. It looks nice and simple to use with live switching options. Anyone using one of have any experience of them?
