  1. Here's one in black for 1/34th of the price https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154819293634
  2. Yes. Andy Travis. the answer is yes. Even if its no.
  3. Update: Basses: -2 (bought 1, sold 3) Pedals: 0 (bought 1, sold 1)
  4. I accidentally ordered one set too many of La Bella LTFs for Fender P. Most retailers have them for about £50, if they have them in stock at all (those in stock include Amazon £55, Andertons £56 etc) £40 posted in UK. Decent saving for a completely new, unopened set of strings! Will post pic later but it looks like a new unopened packet!!!
  5. Dunc bought back the Shergold he had previously sold to me, having missed his mojo'd old friend (the bass, not me). All was excellent!
  6. So far. Basses: -1 (bought 1, sold 2) Pedals: 0 (bought 1, sold 1) FTW
  7. @karlfer just posted the inaugural FS ad
  8. 🤣funny guy
  9. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder etc etc
  10. I would have much preferred to sell my 4003 last month on BC but was forced into using eBay. While it did eventually sell to a nice guy, I got some absurd offers and a request to meet somewhere unspecified and get payment in cash (yeah right ... )
  11. The original poster hasn't been on Basschat for nearly a year. Try using the private messaging function and maybe it will send him an email alert?
  12. Alan bought an AVRI 62 Jazz from me and was a gent throughout.
  13. @warwickhunt you were once interested in a Stingray shortie (and this is a very good price)?
  14. I would certainly grab one if available for £250 in vgc
  15. Aquila are now manufacturing some strings specifically designed to replicate the famed Kaplan 'Golden Spirals' used by many famous 50s/60s player (and later by Charlie Haden). They come in two flavours - Vintage (nylon wrapped gut D and G) and Synthetic (nylon-wrapped synthetic core; D and G, plus copper flatwound wrapped E and A). They do sound fantastic. Video of Herve Jeanne playing the synthetic set below. And here is the TalkBass thread that charts the development of these strings. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/about-a-possible-replica-of-the-kaplan-golden-spiral-gut-strings.1531645/ They are not yet on their website (apparently will be shortly) but the full synthetic set is about €185 +VAT (€85 for D/G pair and €90 for EA/pair), while gut D/G is €220 + VAT
  16. @molanknows Pierre the owner well, if I recall correctly. Errr and I once sold him a bass when he was a member of BassChat!
  17. Come on Chris. You are just trying to trick us into googling 'Russian blonde'
  18. If I said I have a Takamine TB-10 and your list in the post above didn't include this would it send you full-blown Inspector Dreyfuss? Kill Clouseau, kill Clouseau...
  19. Also the positioning of the strap button looks the same to me as on @Old Horse Murphy's 2021 mapleglo 4003S, pictured higher up this page. Its obviously the new and bestest design so I think any owners of pre 2021 Ricks should be worried that their top horn is at risk of being sheared off 😀
  20. Jaunty is my middle name (Actually its Dexter, but that's another story)
  21. PS, why not keep a cheapo bitsa in reserve. Doesnt take up much space and you may feel an occasional hankering or even recording need? I realise this is a bit late in that you have said you have already sold 'em all!
  22. ACDC did a nearly-as-good cover 😉
  23. Well I got it for the lowest price I could find available in the UK. Whether that qualifies as a "good" price is a different matter!
