Both gigbags please

Great bass, the smaller body does make them super comfortable.

Which tuners, generic EBay specials ?

Crikey, I gave one of those away to a friend

Very tempted by this. Clone of my longest owned bass. If like mine S/N starts S9 that is 1989. Great necks and Schaller licenced tuners. Mine went to Bassdoc when had the shop near Grainger Market for a custom made red tort scratchplate (the Samick factory didn't quite get the shape right) and a D-tuner as those Machine heads are rarer than Rocking Horse Poo (I bent one).

Stop it, more than tempted

Nice work

You have my sympathy. I had a heavy relic one of these and sold for same reasons. Those fine frets and slimmest of slim necks are much missed

Don't suppose you head East often? I have a Gator 4U case in fine fettle. Sheffield, Pontefract or meet halfway ?

My weapon of choice. I bought one last year via the Evilbay as a friends just felt "right". Funnily enough it would to take something as good as the Yamaha to prise it from my paws

Wow, that is stunning. Wish I had funds and skills to do it justice. We were at the British Violin Makers Association exhibition not long ago and got talking to Colin (at least the Boss says it was him). It would cost a lot more than this to commission one now as effort to return ratio is nothing compared to a Violin or Viola. A truly stunning instrument that will serve many a generation.

Thanks Hubrad, will try that as alternative to solder tracking that would make a mess.

Anyone got guidance as how to repair a rattling machine head. Read elsewhere regards bit of solder in the pin joint? Or replace pin?
Happy to send to someone who can. Don't want to ruin look of these Tokai (Gotoh?) Nickel tuners.

Not seen any like this anywhere, though optimistically now also in Wanted section.

Just like the one I let go in darker times. This 'is' Jazz Bass Tone

What are your trade interests ? Tech21 LM300 and B410 appeal ?

Headstocks cut down nicely to Tele Bass shape too

Good job I've just spent a grand elsewhere. Another Year of Birth Bass that got away

No they're hiding in Yorkshire

Started on Bass Guitar in School Big Band. Had Double Bass lessons to a point but other life and music got in the way. When had space bought a decent Stentor (Elysia). Nothing hurt so good as playing the Buddy Rich arrangement of Norwegian Wood (I had to step up my game with the rehearsing band I was in). But then the band came to nothing and I lost the will to live depping for Trad Jazz Militants Fast forward 7 years and through having decent fretless bass guitars I took the plunge and got hold of a Bespoke Superlight EUB. Bass (as opposed to bass guitar) is so expressive, in fact I'm off to practice now. I don't even mind that first gig back is depping for Trad Jazz militants

If only my car hadn't been painted 'hint of Mercedes Atos'. Fingers crossed I get excess back sooner rather than later.

Am I being dense, can't see a price ?

Remember the review of these when first appeared. I ended up with an EG512C...not quite the same... Stil it's [s]Euro Lottery[/s] Idiot Tax night
These are stunning !

Yes Please, will drop you a PM

Must resist Year of Birth Bass....

Chris, still interested. Is the body a slab type or gut cut profiled?
