oohhh that looks lovely....

It certainly is! I wouldn't sell it in an ideal world but we could use the cash at the moment!

Ok so let me know if you are coming to France...

I actually will be in Andorra This winter so if you fancy a drive down and it hasn't already sold we might be able to make something work. PM me if you're interested

Yes you are sadly. You can thank Brexit for that. Even second hand goods in a private sale are now taxed if they're entering / exiting the UK from Europe.

Sadly that is the old world. If you are posting between the UK and Europe, the person recieving the item has to pay vat on the combined price of the item plus the shipping, plus the courier fee for doing the paperwork, and then the other amount they add for reasons that only they know.

Dang, that's a real shame! Well... At least I learned something today 😅

Yes. 20% VAT on both the goods and the shipping. Plus whatever the courier company wants to charge you for customs clearance. 

I have no experience with this so I'm liable to be totally wrong but I don't think VAT is payable on the goods since this is a private sale and I'm not a VAT registered business. 

Yes, this is strung B-C. No issues with the low B whatsoever. It sounds and feels great

Up for sale is this beautiful short scale (33") Shuker singlecut 6 string. Bought here earlier this year to see if the 33" scale was right for me, it definitely is! I've had an amazing time with this bass but I have a custom Zon on the way now and we're going away for the winter so could do with raising some cash. 
Can be seen / played in Central Bristol. Can travel within a reasonable distance to deliver. 

Any questions at all please do ask

Thanks so much! Yea, it really does sound great and it's insanely versatile. So many usable sounds to be explored with the EQ. 

Thanks! I thought it looked fairly big. I know it was unlikely but if it were a 33" scale I'd have sold a kidney 😅

Best of luck with the sale! 

Bump for an unbelievably beautiful bass. What's the scale length / string spacing? 

Could really do with moving this on hence a PRICE DROP to £700

Bought this from new in June last year. It looks and sounds great and has tonnes of versatility. Unfortunately though my hands are just too small for the 35" scale and it's not getting the love it deserves. The finish really is quite impressive in the flesh and it's been incredibly well cared for.

Wow really? How short are we talking? Is it another shuker 6? I'm really getting curious about shorter scales. My wrist is not having an easy time with bigger stretches. 

Lovely looking bass! I've been considering a 33" 6 string for a while. My Yamaha is a 35" and sometimes I wish it were a little easier to play. Do you find the low B loses much with the shorter scale? 

That's great, just what I needed to know. Thank you! 

Hi all, 

I'm completely new to modelling and effects in general so please excuse the dumb questions. I'm really interested in getting a HX stomp to use with Janek Gwizdalas presets as well as to experiment with other effects. I was looking at the XL as it seems like the controls are a bit more friendly.

The few questions I have are: 
1) Does anyone know how many blocks the Janek presets use? My hope is that I could stick an amp model in there and replace my amp for home practice. 
2) I haven't been able to find much information about an on board looper (other than that it's possible). Would I be able to have easy access to the looping functionality whilst using the Janek presets?
3) Would I be able to use all of this in conjunction? The looper, janek presets and amp modelling? The idea is that it would serve as a single bit of kit that I can use for home practice with headphones or studio monitors. Wondering if I might need to upgrade to the LT? I'd much rather use the stomp XL for the smaller form factor if possible. 

Thanks so much for any help, it's much appreciated!
 

If this is still here when lockdown is over I'm really interested!

Sorry! I just noticed you've already answered this! I think it's a bit wide for me. Good luck with the sale! 

Hi mate, do you know what the string spacing is on this?

Still so much interest but no ones made the trip from the mouth to the pocket as my dad used to say

Steve bought some books from me. Super smooth transaction, a pleasure!

Still here!

Still here!

Lots of great books still left, they need to go!

Ian bought a looper from me, super smooth transaction.

Thanks a lot!

Bump! Not long left before this is withdrawn... Grab it while you can!

I can't believe it either really. This will be withdrawn on the 8th of Jan. Grab a bargain while it's still available
