    Just heard this on TV. Aaaaarrrggghh! Hall and Oates wrote some cracking tunes (I can't go for that, She's gone etc) but this one is an abomination: You Make My Dreams Come True

    I bought this beauty on the forum a couple of weeks ago, thinking I could cope with a c.9 pounds bass (8.95 to be precise, or 4.08kg). Unfortunately, my rubbish neck and back quickly told me otherwise (I blame the horse accident last year and the 18 fractures to my ribcage, collarbone and breast bone). My other basses are generally sub-8 pounds for a reason. In excellent, near flawless condition, with CS pickups and OHSC, and wearing a brand new set of D'Addario 45-100 nickel rounds. Collection from SW13 London preferred as I don't currently have a box. If postage is needed, I would need a few days to source the box. £1025 collected or £1050 posted UK (which is what I paid, before adding new strings). Sorry, no trades. Here is the BC ad from the previous seller

    Super loud (800w at 8ohm), silver cloth version, light (26 pounds) and in generally good condition (some minor scuffs to textured finish on edges, nothing egregious). Comes with brand new fitted, padded cover. £550 collected from SW13 London (Barnes, south of closed-to-traffic Hammersmith Bridge) as I don't have a box large enough. I will also throw in the Auralex Gramma sound damping/isolation pad its sitting on (these are an eye-watering £95 new at Bax Music). No trades unless for a good condition Barefaced Super Mini/Super Midget. Specs here: https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/Big-Baby-2.htm

    Having done a lot of research into this (due to my neck and back issues), walnut bodied Rick 4003S models are generally below 9 pounds and often around 8.5 (c 3.5kg). The traditional jetglo/fireglo etc 4003S and 4003 are maple bodied and almost always between 9-10 pounds (4.1-4.5 kg)

    Maybe Alan can help?

    Sorry, the G silk is cut to about 4 inches which is too short for a 4 in line J

    For those who posted unsmiley responses to my suggestions re: Don't look back in Anger and Everybody needs somebody, its maybe not the song so much as their amazing power to cause a headlong rush to the dance floor from lagered-up lads (who normally prefer to booze rather than dance), knocking everyone aside, leaving a trail of death and destruction and lots of bro-hugging.

    Wow, that is so aligned with my view, Their first album 'Signing Off' was, in my view, stupendous ( several fab songs eg Tyler, King etc) but they quickly dissolved into utterly dreadful, commercial (as another BCer described it) cod reggae

    Don't look back in anger Everybody needs somebody (actually anything by the Blues Brothers)

    Bought a Sansamp from Edward. Great comms and the pedal was exactly as described. All good!

    Sold a bass to John. There was a technical issue which we sorted out and he was a gent throughout. Would happily recommend 🙂

    Just bought a rather lovely old Hofner 500/1 bass from Jamie. Top class transaction from start to finish. Very happy. Thanks Jamie!

    Assuming that's a reply to Andy Trav and your block function is in full force, lol!

    Thanks Kev, but I already have the more basic, fewer knobs (Sansamp) replacement on its way. Afraid its cash sale only.

    Aaaarrggh, I can envisage Bono singing this with sunglasses and cans on, in front of assembled 1980/90s pop stars

    Realising my one dusty picture was a bit rubbish, here's some taken today in the sunshine to give a better representation of the excellent condition

    @Rich are you able to make Alice aware of this thread, so she can read the comments and tributes from fellow BCer's? Nick was well liked and respected on the forum and I would imagine she would appreciate seeing this?

    Bought a nice pedal off Dan and all was ticket-boo, fine and dandy and so on. Very happy, many thanks Dan!

    La Bella Low Tension Flats that were briefly on my now-departed short scale Serek Midwestern bass last year and sat in drawer ever since. Trimmed for 2+2 headstock. Very good condition, bar slight fuzzing of silks. Will last for years. I have lost official packaging (I have an old long scale LTF sleeve, as shown on photo) but they will be well packed. New price at Andertond is £55. How about £30 posted?

    Dunlop flats bought on the forum some time ago for a Fender shaped object (ie 4 in line headstock). Can't find the details but fairly sure they are 45-105 gauge. Fair, rather than very good, used condition with years of life left. No official packaging but will be well packed. How about £23 posted, which compares with eye watering new price of around £75?
