2021 Serek Lincoln (34" scale) in deep satin plum. Very much a Gibson Ripper/Grabber vibe visually but lighter weight and beautifully hand made by Jake Serek and team in Chicago. Very good condition bar two tiny nicks in the thin nitro paint (pictured). Plays slickly with new DR Pure Blues 40-100 nickel rounds. Nut width 1 5/8". Lots of tonal variation from the twin single pickups, which can be selected: bridge solo; neck solo; parallel; series (very punchy). Comes with high quality padded Serek gigbag. Weighs just over 8 pounds, so very comfy. Its a truly fab bass and I am only selling as I am potentially funding a new custom short scale and, of my two Sereks, l (marginally) prefer my short scale Midwestern 1. Full spec here for the Lincoln model: https://www.serekbasses.com/basses/lincoln/ £2000 firm price which is less than I paid to acquire this on BC and over £1k less than a new one would cost, including import duty/VAT from the US (approx. $4,000 for this specification). * No trades thanks * Collection SW13 London or delivery at cost (UK only) via UPS. Sausage dog (Woody) not included

I have one of those ^^^ as recommended by Happy jack, including the additional back support. If you by any chance live in London and are happy to collect it from SW13 you can have it for free

I'm stumped by the control layout. Especially the silly mid on

From a quick search of google images, the world is littered with bass players whose status and respect is clearly utterly misplaced due to their over-the-neck thumb placement ... in addition to the examples above (Jaco, Victor W etc) there is Stanley Clarke, Jack Bruce, Roger Glover, Geezer Butler, Tim Lefebvre, JJ Burnel etc. Just think what they could have achieved with a few lessons at the Guitar Institute

Does anyone in the UK stock Modern Vintage basses?
Clarky replied to ossyrocks's topic in Bass Guitars
As far as I am aware, BD are the only UK dealer. If you search on BAssChat I am pretty sure there have been threads about them and I recall people being happy with them. Think @Sibob had one (in firemist gold?), if memory serves me correctly. -

Low-ish tension roundwounds, similar feel to TI Flats?
Clarky replied to Paul S's topic in Accessories and Misc
I personally find the TI Jazz Rounds even lower tension than the Flats (might just be my perception, rather than reality). I can also recommend DR 40-100 nickel rounds with round cores, either the Sunbeams or the Blues -

Clarky replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
The chrome Thunderbucker type pickup looks very cool too, much more so than the stock black one.
