I bought Ru's Lakland DJ4. Nice bass as described. Very easy, quick transaction with great comms and quick delivery. Thanks again.

I bought a pedal from Nigel. Really smooth transaction. Great coms and parcel sent quickly. Very many thanks.

I bought one of these for a Hohner B2B. https://www.thomann.de/gb/steinberger_guitars_stadb04_adapter_4string_bk.htm Gives you more string options.

There is one on fleabay, says it's in Bristol. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/K-K-Bass-Max-Upright-Bass-Double-Bass-Transducer-UK-stock-/202645394523 Other than that, I used to get them from Thomann.

Can the tweeter be switchable (on/off)?

I bought a set of these https://www.thomann.de/gb/presto_balance_hybrid_34l.htm They're a steel string but not too stiff/too much tension. I tried them on one bass and they now live on my EUB and make it sound/feel very DB like. They're a little fatter feeling than spirocores and they bow ok too. Good price. Read the review on Thomann and see if they might work for you.

Looking at the pics, the tail wire is worse for wear, the end pin looks like it has tape or something around it, and the bridge is quite a way out of place on the front. You might want to ask for more pics showing if the sound post is in place, fingerboard close ups, headstock to see if there were repairs etc... He does say collection only and for cash so if you go and it's rubbish you can walk away. Travelling a distance for the right DB is not uncommon. Looking at this one, you'll ask yourself if it's worth the journey.

I found having that having a portable eub (BSX Allegro 5), it gets transported fully assembled in a gig bag. Taking it apart just for space was a pain...time consuming and dealing with getting it back in tune in a short amount of time etc.... I only took it apart when flying, maybe twice. You may want to try some different eubs if you can. I know times are difficult right now but maybe ask the community if anyone near you has anything different to what you have, given the potential cost you're about to incur :-)

I bought Paul's Hohner B2B bass. Great comms and was willing to ship to the continent. Bass arrived well packed and safely even though I goofed up my address in a senior moment 😂. Thanks again for the very easy and straightforward deal. Pleasure to deal with.

Looks fab. Great job. 👍

Or any other bossa style song. There are loads of them.
