  1. Hi briansbrew, send me a PM & a couple of pics of the Streamer if poss.
  2. Hi mate, I don't have any scales unfortunately so I can't give you an accurate weight - I'd say between 9lbs & 10lbs. It balances really well on a strap though and because of the weight is really resonant and sustains for days.
  3. Back up for sale as it was pending and fell through.
  4. Ordered a Jazz control plate kit yesterday. Built, tested and delivered in less than 24 hours - that's what I call service! Pleasure doing business & won't hesitate to do so again!
  5. **sale pending**
  6. Cheers everyone!
  7. Cheers, rednose. ACGs are up there with the best!
  8. Bump again. Presumably it's just a slow time for selling? Everyone skint from Christmas?
  9. [quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1420925828' post='2655228'] The selling market is bad when you see a bass like this at that price [/quote] Yeah, I might take it down & put it back up when things pick up!
  10. Here are the shots of the ding on the back of the neck. It's only really in the lacquer and doesn't seem to have affected the wood so nothing serious at all. Thought I would post them here anyway to be fully transparent with everything.

  11. I had another quick play on this last night and it's gorgeous so snap it up before I change my mind, haha!
  12. [quote name='Philly' timestamp='1420757355' post='2653231'] It's been noticed just have no money�� What's the weight and scale length? [/quote] I'm not sure of the weight as I don't have any scales but Alan at ACG doesn't really make very lightweight basses (apart from by request I suppose) so I'd say it's between 9 & 10lbs. It sits really well on a strap though and the balance is perfect because of the long top horn and lightweight tuners. The scale length is 34". Alan specialises in making shorter scale extended range basses so I wouldn't be worried about the B string performance on this beauty. There are some 32" 6-string ACGs knocking about that sound incredible. [quote name='Kev' timestamp='1420759651' post='2653260'] Gorgeous! Can we have a look at that ding in the neck? Pm if you wish [/quote] Yes, I'll try & take a shot or two over the weekend. I borrowed someone else's camera for those shots so they won't be quite as good unfortunately! I'll post it here as people have a right to see it but it's not too bad - honest!
  13. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1420751935' post='2653121'] What's the string spacing on this? [/quote] Just had the tape-measure out and it seems to 18mm.
  14. Price drop bump - £800. Last one I think. Grab a bargain for a beauty!
  15. 'nother bump.
  16. Further price reduction bump, now £850. This is a steal
  17. *EDIT* After being up for sale for a while & not drumming up much interest for a cash sale, I'm open to trade offers for [b]4 string[/b] Warwick Thumbs & Streamers. Admittedly that's a pretty limited range but you never know! Trade value is £1200 as it won't let me edit the original cash value. __ This was made by Alan at ACG for Manchester Bass Lounge in 2013 and is in very good condition. There's a ding on the back of the neck but I can't feel it when playing - I need to take a photo of that at some point. It's the most balanced and crystal clear sounding bass I've ever owned or played and is ridiculously comfortable and easy to play - the filtered preamp is very intuitive when you get used to it and you can get so many more unique tones from it than a standard 3-band EQ. [u][b]Here's the full spec:[/b][/u] Body wood - black walnut Top wood - wenge Veneer - maple Finish - satin lacquer Neck - 5pc maple & wenge, asymmetric profile Headstock - matching wenge Fingerboard - Indian ebony Pickups - ACG FB humbuckers Electronics - ACG SEQ preamp (this is the basic filtered preamp offered by ACG which has two low pass filters and a blend). Hardware - Hipshot & Gotoh. [b][u]TRADES:[/u][/b] [b]Warwick Thumb (4 string) Warwick Streamer [/b][b](4 string)[/b] Any questions, give me a shout.

  18. [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1413543154' post='2579292'] Just such a massive improvement on what went before. So much so I have a daily look in on the site and Faecesbook. That 70's P is getting more and more tempting [/quote] Thanks karlfer, that's great to hear!
  19. Thanks for the kind words guys! Those G&L Tributes are fantastic, the carved top L-2000s are Limited Editions I think. I've had my eye on that sunburst one as well! We've set up a new Facebook page too if anyone wants a shufty - https://www.facebook.com/greatbritishbasslounge All 'Likes' appreciated Tom
