  1. Ive done it again and put flats on my P bass as ive joined a large soul band, but i personally dont care for flats live. Ive decided to go back to rounds on the P (especially after listening to some Freddie Washington recently). They are worn in, but in good condition, The Tomastiks have a lovely mid voice and a smooth low end, with sweet highs, very like a quality orchestral string (it's what they do😁) they are also very low Tension, so very easy to play. £30 incl delivery to your door They are currently on the bass so no pics yet.
  2. Coppering up for stuff so for sale is this "attic find" Been up there for years, i think i bought it with a mind to restore and practice setting up and soldering electronics etc, i never did so i still dont have a clue. Its a Korean made Kay "Gremlin" bass from the 80's in arctic white, 28" scale shortscale. Its a bit of a project, but its mostly ok. 1- The fingerboard was painted and quite worn, id started to remove (not finished) with wire wool, and ive oiled it, itll need proper sanding, ive cleaned the frets up, but may need a good dress/polish. 2- Hardware- bridge is nothing special, maybe brass, but adjusts fine. The tuners are quite loose and pitted but work fine and stay in tune. It would benefit from some newer replacements, which can be bought cheaply. 3- pickup/electrics - a sticker on the back shows its fitted with a super distortion pickup 🤣 because thats what we all want. In actuality its a beefy sounding P bass sound. Ive cleaned the jack/pots and passive electrics, and they work fine. Truss rod- i couldnt move it, but with a newish set of shortscale strings on, it has a medium action and is easy to play. Theres a bit of paint on the body, but its all clean. Its very small and light, and perfect for anyone wanting a little fixer upper, or for a child to try which doesnt break the bank, before they have a gig three weeks later and ask for an Alembic. Make no mistake, its not perfect and sold as seen, it works and theres no buzz across the range of the instrument. I will post this to you UK only very well wrapped for £45 which by the time ive paid for postage will get me a pint of craft ale. Paypal F&F please, or you cover the fees 20250329_144215_1.mp4
  3. Lovely! I thought you only played spectors.
  4. Im waiting for pickups, bridges and tuners, im in the market 😊
  5. Yes! Thats true, approx 20% more.
  6. Ive just bought another new envelope filter which has rocked my world 🤣 I had my old fave the Bass IQ and the MXR and i was happy, until an impulse buy made one have to go. Ive had a shootout and this MXR funk machine needs to go, as ive no room on my boards and mostly use filters for synth, so i dont need three. It is a band pass filter with volumes for effect and your clean bass signal, which really adds depth. The main controls for decay (more like a frequency) Q (resonance) and a sensitivity (every filter should have this) Its a very easy filter to get a good sound from without too much faffing. Its in as new condition, with brand new velcro, it also comes with the box also in fantastic condition. This is also one of the sought after early purple Sparkle, it looks fantastic. Sold
  7. Im sure someone in the wanted section is after a small stone
  8. And me next, in case the other two succomb to a small Yachting accident 😉🤣
  9. Ive just bought two very synthy pedals (Okto Nojs and Subdecay prometheus) lovely friendly communication and speedy delivery, and great packaging, great transaction. Thanks Dave 😊
  10. Id love this, but ive just bought a Diamond Jnr
  11. I always get Anxiety when i courier. Which is why i pack extremely well and pay for Am delivery next day. Id need to sell my stingray though, ive a 4HH with a rosewood board (i want a maple) ive a potential local buyer, but not worth doing if you wont post. An extra £130 isnt doable, nor a 10+ hour round trip.
  12. Oof! Im sick i missed that OC2 🤪
