  1. Superb basses! I love my 5-string MB-2 - quite literally the most comfortable bass I've ever played. GLWTS!
  2. Cool! I love my 5-string MB-2 - literally the most comfortable bass I've ever owned. Was the Bartolini added by you, or did it come from Rob like that? Just interested! Also, do you have any interest in trades? Cheers!
  3. Thanks for the offer man - Amani build looks crazy! Not quite my thing, however. Good luck with selling
  4. For sale or trade is my 1992 Musicman Stingray 5 fretless. I got this bass in a trade with Tony (Hellzero) last year and, although it's a superb bass, it's not getting played as much as anticipated. It's a fantastic sounding, playing and looking instrument and deserves daily shedding! This particular bass was built on 16th December 1992 and has an ash body finished in teal (or petrol blue), beautiful maple neck and unlined pau ferro fingerboard. I was informed by Tony that the previous (and original) owner hardly played the bass and there is very little wear on the fingerboard, especially considering it's nearly 27 years old. In perfect condition other than a chip in the finish on the lower horn - shown in photos, but I'm happy to send over more pics if necessary (chip is about 2mm square). Neck is in great condition and the setup is very comfortable indeed. Currently strung with D'Addario nickel rounds, which suit it very well. All original hardware and electronics from early 90s (3 band EQ, 3 way selector switch and classic MM pickup). Only downside to this bass is that it's not one of the light MMs - weighs about 5.2kg - so not for those with back trouble! Standard Stingray specs other that than - 34" scale etc. and, of course, a superb low B. I'm looking for £1350ono £1100 for this. I will consider trades on 4-string Fenders or maybe a Hofner, but primarily looking to sell. Happy to consider offers regardless, so feel free to ask. Comes with original MM case as pictured. I'm based in Birmingham for collection and/or to check the bass out (welcome to come and try it out and have a cuppa). Happy to ship fully insured in the UK and Europe at the buyers expense. Thanks for looking.
  5. Temple Audio DUO 34 pedalboard in Gunmetal Grey for sale with matching soft case. In good condition, but with some wear - paint has come off in some places due to general use and pedal mounting/moving. A superb board with lots of space. Will ship in the UK for £15, EU for £20-25. Based in Birmingham for collection. Thanks for looking. Size: 318mm x 864mm (12.5in x 34.0in) Weight: 2.08kg (4.6lbs) (board only)
  6. Strymon Timeline for sale in excellent condition. A superb delay (and more) pedal that is incredibly deep. This unit has some slight marking to the bottom from pedalboard mounting and also has some remnant adhesive, also from mounting. This can be easily removed, but I have left it so as not to disturb the serial number sticker. In full working order with original box, original power supply, rubber feet, instructions and Strymon sticker. Can ship in the UK fully insured for £10. Based in Birmingham. Cheers!
  7. Had a spare afternoon and have now taken this in to Bass Direct. It will be available via their site/shop shortly. Thanks!
  8. Price drop to £1650. I am taking this down to Bass Direct on Tuesday for them to sell on my behalf, so if you want a good deal over the weekend, go for it! Cheers!
  9. Bump. Going to take this in to Bass Direct to sell next week if no action this week, so just a heads up if you want to make any offers. Cheers!
  10. Bump. Also edited to read no trade offers please. There are a lot of tempting things around, but really need to order something quite specific!
  11. Is it the Alembic you have for sale located in Bulgaria? It's a beautiful bass, but I'll have to say no I'm afraid. Because of the problems with my left wrist/elbow, I really need to try any bass I might trade for, so not really practical to get to Bulgaria. Sorry! Thanks for the interest though Best of luck selling the Alembic!
  12. For sale is my 2013 Elrick Gold Evolution 6-string. It is a beautiful looking, playing and sounding instrument and anyone who's had any experience with these will surely vouch for that. Also one of the lightest basses I've ever owned - an exceptionally lightweight 6-string. The only reason I'm selling is that, unfortunately, I've had some elbow and wrist problems and the 35" scale and width of neck causes me physical pain Going to go back to 5ers and a 34" scale (amazing how much difference an inch makes!), so this has to be moved on. The bass has been gigged a lot, but it is in very good condition. There are a few little bumps, which I've pictured below - a few little marks around the input jack from cables and the odd ding on the bottom of the body and top of headstock. There are a few marks on the bridge as well form re-stringing etc.. The only modification is the addition of an ebony finger ramp, which matches the radius of the fingerboard (only attached with tape, so easy to remove). I also put a bit of electrical tape around some of the wires in the cavity to stop them moving around - no damage or anything in there and all functioning 100%. These basses are $3500 new (between £2500-2700ish), so I'm asking for £1650! No trades please. The bass comes with an Elrick hard case (not pictured, but can dig out of the garage if desired!) and I'm based in Birmingham if you'd like to come and give it a blast. Can ship in the UK at buyers expense or perhaps meet in neutral territory if required. Feel free to ask if I've missed anything. Thanks for looking! Specs: - 35" scale 6 string bass - 19mm string spacing at bridge - very lightweight swamp ash body with redwood burl top and matching headstock face - maple neck with wenge fingerboard (side dots only) - hand rubbed oil finish - 24 medium frets + zero fret - Bartolini single coils with bart 9v 3-band preamp (with active/passive switch and mid-frequency selection mini switches) - Hipshot hardware - added ebony ramp, matching 16" fingerboard radius
  13. Traded my Lowdown custom 6 string with Tony for a 1992 Stingray 5 fretless. Great service all around! Shipped the basses to one another with excellent communication throughout. Stingray arrived very securely packed and in perfect condition - exactly as described. Deal with Tony in absolute confidence. A great guy and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Tony!
