  1. Mike bought a rather luverly preamp off me. Whole deal was as smooth as a snake. Top stuff! Many thanks Mike
  2. My eyesight must be shot as both this and the bass on eBay appear to have chrome hardware to me!
  3. Gotta say - in the interest of fairness - this does look like the bass (pic from 2014)
  4. I am going to trademark a new website: Guiarchat
  5. To save you the effort: "Rickenbacker Bass Guiar(used To Be Alan Daveys From Hawkwind). I bought this of hawkwind ex-bass player roughly 5 to 8 tears ago I had a letter stating the I bought this of Alan davey its a fire glow rickenbacker Bass guitar,which they don't make any more but I,ve misplaced it somewhere and it was signed by Alan in the letter so if I come across it I'll put it with this beautiful guiar,there,s not a mark on this fantastic jem,it comes with his psyedelic warlords and tombstone aroma stickers that and hawkwind fans might recognise plus it was used on a few of his solo albums..sorry about the photos not doing this bass guitar any justice as they were taken of my phone "
  6. Description takes some beating https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154798317333?hash=item240ab2df15:g:Pq0AAOSwylRh5CE9
  7. Matt bought some DR Sunbeam strings from me and all was grand. Cheers!
  8. Prompted by this thread, I tried a set of DR Pure Blues 40-100 in place of my La Bella 760FLs. Initial impressions very good. Similar to Sunbeams (very, as in they are also nickel wound, round core) and more punchy than flats. May end up going back to flats, as thats my comfort zone, but enjoying these rounds for now.
  9. I get the original faker ban (although you may be right Jack that times have moved on in regard of their litigiousness) but struggle to understand banning FS/FT posts involving demonstrably genuine R***s, with serial number etc to prove.
  10. Its still policed on BC. I, admittedly somewhat cheekily, mentioned in my status this week that I am selling a "bass that cannot be named (think Geddy, 2112)" on ebay and that status was removed by the mods. As presumably will be this post
  11. Pretty sure this would sell in a heartbeat if you offered shipping. You can always buy shipping boxes, such as this one on eBay ... or possibly get one for free from a bike or music shop https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154590259482?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item23fe4c291a:g:RPIAAOSwnnlgm9PK&amdata=enc%3AAQAGAAACoPYe5NmHp%2B2JMhMi7yxGiTJkPrKr5t53CooMSQt2orsStEKTPzZMfQmny3knR97t0LFv3q6YpTBbMqxbC2iYUFPsACMo9YTmylPZjqA16%2BGY1FkXWTK2cZ%2FEcqvWbW4mf7PDOAueOC6hi90TQj%2Bsf9EMKSbswril3qUIxUcWggzNL%2Ffh2GjpKi5lD6uNtxk6ctJhorqi%2BvmiRNdxZDD1r7W5%2BABEd9NJmdW8TBV5Efm2q%2FsoMtYia%2FQ3AT9ywQNmX9RQqtoKvqZwXU8vqmjTF2XklWLTba5p4WYK0dHqHwZHeS%2FNN35g8OMQgE6yEaVIztacOElobSDe3F2QNg9AJ8jT2kMn6ZgmHQRmrJ4I3TaUyVcj5UVIntMFxa2PvBWDSHjVEKSR765mvdHcifQgG0L%2FL5Z2LBCarYS4RBq5YOCMr3wUEcCw2brPOMsrXn7wV%2FSmlqMRZ8vBPy%2FMnDFkPCyvD7jc93MXVtSuzaPlWE2FMoLFjWNp0QhHnKe92dYgW%2FjMBHz0heYObQzZmcBozURKyEmAnnZOb9O9288M78eC5OFEmvlPNiL6koSD%2BI1jembkNbCMBO0bl9z8Yf%2BgeiM6HYMPZ05P6MBlDNMFVlmgLLJGqHB7G2FgTfzaFG4DiodTLZTBd6Y63ftdYQX6qXxi%2FB4KYRWXrsG0kyoDoRvyYYQzMXzAzWlNFhmcJxEd%2FcsvIq2ht14ZFRfpKT0KM8FMSQEd%2Fc97N1gRCrY%2FnZK76YkRjKmBvjbsP03qLfJnR23KjmZ%2BydkgIYw47P4cNtADZh3wNiXQPuCbZEl4wrM8gS%2FlzyiN3hpMPpHOwMWQwB%2BwrFK88jstEuXiCfq68tiL3shnq0diherUgVTpz%2Bv4YQ2prgv%2FdGwvsS1ycvPveQ%3D%3D|clp%3A2334524|tkp%3ABFBM1KmshM1f
  12. Just shortscale flats left: La Bella 760 FL short scale flats (same gauge as Mustang strings), good condition barely used on 2+2 headstock Serek Midwestern, £20 posted (new £40+) Dunlop 40-100 short scale flats, good condition barely used on 2+2 headstock Serek Midwestern, £20 posted (new £45+) If you buy the two sets together, £35 posted
  13. I play in the Wily Bo Walker Band but that's fine. Bo is a Grammy nominated singer/songwriter and very well regarded in the blues community. I just turn up and play bass!
  14. New reduced prices: DR Sunbeam 45-105 nickel rounds (trimmed for Jazz bass), good condition still bright, £12 posted (new £30+) La Bella 760 FL short scale flats (same gauge as Mustang strings), good condition barely used on 2+2 headstock Serek Midwestern, £20 posted (new £40+) Dunlop 40-100 short scale flats, good condition barely used on 2+2 headstock Serek Midwestern, £20 posted (new £45+) If you buy the short scale flats together, £35 posted
  15. s'what BassDirect ad says https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/EA_Wizzy_E.html
  16. Sold it as, however much I like the look of SG/EB basses, I don't find them comfortable to play. The TV yellow one was was a beaut for sure
  17. The drab olive reminds me of all the Range Rovers in SW London that are in faux military colours but in reality the owners are called Giles and Clarissa and their two children are called Charlie and Violetta
  18. Special run for Chicago Music Exchange (also comes in aptly named "Drab" olive green). Nice colour scheme. Link https://www.chicagomusicexchange.com/products/gibson-usa-sg-standard-bass-pelham-blue-wtortoise-1351959
  19. Not saying AER, PJB and others (Genzler and Tecamp/Eich for example) are not good for DB, they clearly are! Just that they don't have very specific DB functionality onboard (notch filters, phase adjusters, phantom power for mics etc) which some DBers want.
  20. Not sure they are top of every DBers list when it comes to amps. Sure, their combos are used by some and plenty of DBers use Markbass combos. But in terms of doubling, notch filters etc, it was really only EA and AI
  21. Another vote for La Bella 760FL, which I have on my '83 Fullerton-era AVRI62 Jazz. Super slick to play (don't know why but they seem better suited to my Jazz whereas the LTFs suit my Precision beautifully) and great deep tone
