Yeah, VB-99 is a great price of kit. I recently got a SY1000 and whilst in some areas it’s a step forward, in many others; form factor, poly effects, etc. it’s a bit of a step backward. Sorry for the thread derail, enjoy the Squeezer.

I tried one of these and whilst it sounded great I found it really awkward to program. Good luck, I’m sure with patience you’ll have some great results. I also have the VB-99 which in comparison is a doddle.

Got a stack of these, free to anyone who can collect from North London N21. I'll keep them for a couple of weeks and then they are off to the tip

This, I just bought one for £60!

Bought a Zoom MS60b from Pete. Super easy transaction, brilliantly packed and quick postage. Highly recommend.

I have two full sized cardboard bass shipping boxes. Just thought I’d see if there is any interest before I take them to the recycling centre. Collect from London N21 please.

Can people please leave any feedback for me here, much obliged.

Bought a Fender hi-mass bridge from Martyn. Super easy purchase. Highly recommended.

Bought a P bass body and scratch plate from James. Perfect deal and it arrived 2 days early! Highly recommend.

New boss Space Echos. Love the RE-202 retro Roland style enclosure. https://www.boss.info/global/promos/space_echo/

Thanks for this I’ll check them out.

Good point, here are some pics. I’m not abusing it particularly, but it does get gigged regularly. As you can see from the pics the ear just falls out of the shaft which looks badly corroded? This has happened twice now. I also managed to break one of the tuners when the bass fell over. Remarkably I found a guy selling just the neck and tuners from a TMB 30 which I bought for spares. I’ve now only got one left so need a decent replacement hence the post.

Yeah, I had one for a while and sold it here on this forum. It was a decent bass with active passive pull pot on the volume. Seymour Duncan pickups and a decent preamp. All in all a good instrument although a little on the heavy side.

Does anyone know what tuners would retrofit in an Ibanez Talman TMB 30 bass. Love the bass, but the tuners keep falling apart on me. This is a cheap bass so I don’t mind putting something decent on there, but don’t want to be drilling or filling old screw holes etc.

I really do think Fender are damned of they do and damned if they don't. They are in many ways cursed by having the 2 if not 3 most popular (and well used) bass designs ever! P,J, T. Like many of us on here, I spend most of my time playing a P bass and when I'm not I'm sort of wishing I was. I say good on them for at least trying to offer something slightly different.

Agreed, that looks a lot better.

Doh! I’m way behind the curve. Serves me right for not reading the entire forum before I post! 🤦‍♂️
