  1. Continuing the shed clear out....this is a BBOT 4 string bridge that I lifted off my now departed limelight jazz. The saddles were too corroded to be functional so these had been replaced with brass ones. Includes the relic'd screws. £10 plus postage
  2. Having a bit of a clear out of stuff in the bass shed. These came off late 1990s Stingrays that I had in my possession but decided to change from the matt black look to shiny. Both are black white black and have some player wear (ie the Matt has gone shiny in some areas). £10 each plus postage. SR4 PG NOW SOLD
  3. Got my E JC on hold awaiting payment, if this is still there when the cash hits my hand then as Arnie says......
  4. A Blue Monday back to the top
  5. If my Epi JC sells I'll be back for this.... Passing Tewkesbury tomorrow, if only I had the cash to hand.
  6. This really is a Cracking bass but alas after a few rehearsals I don't think semi-hollow with body binding is for me. A Jazz or something like a G&L Tribute L2000 would hit the spot better.
  7. I briefly had a 4004cii before the 4003. It was a 2013 I think. Didn't feel like a £1600 bass, hated the Humbuckers....you certainly don't get the Rick bite unless you're prepared to have a new harness installed. It was easier to play without the binding but the sound deficiency made that pointless for me.
  8. I play finger style, as long as you remove the pickup cover and install one of the finger rest surrounds its easy enough to play.
  9. It was well worth the wait! Andy truly is the Ed China of the Luthery world.
  10. [quote name='Deedee' timestamp='1465054698' post='3064999'] 😍 If I didn't already have the white one, I'd be having this. Great basses. GLWTS [/quote] Cheers Dan, I've tried hard to like it but I've decided I can't justify using it as a room ornament.
  11. Do you have a weight for this Peter?
  12. I've only recently picked this up in a trade, in looking for a lightweight bass as a more conventional looking option to my Status I thought I'd give this a go. Unfortunately we haven't bonded, the sound is awesome but I guess I'm too used to Fender, Status or MM type bases. The bass is only a few weeks old, is in excellent condition and is set up with a nice low action. Weight is around the 8lb mark by my bathroom scales and headstock dive seems minimal to me (3'' suede strap) It also comes with (the expensive) Epiphone JC hard shell case, which is similarly in excellent nick. In terms of trades I'd look at anything Fenderish Jazz, MM SUB or G&L Tribute as long as it's sub 9lb and in good condition. I'd rather not post at this point as I don't have a box hanging about that will accommodate the HSC! But I will entertain a sub 50 mile meet up.
  13. Come on you know it didn't happen unless there are pics ;-)
  14. Brilliant thread this - well hooked.
  15. I'll give it one last bump for now....
  16. Very nice, if only my Lakky would sell......c'est la vie.
  17. Hope these are like busses Will and another one comes along in 5 minutes....
  18. Cheers BEM and a bump for a wintery bank holiday weekend!
  19. I've told Daughter2, not to even think about getting married for another 10 years lol.
  20. Cheers Karl, it's a great bass and as you said, a lot of bass for the money, but just not for me I fear. Still, not in a mad rush and it might still do another gig or two with me before it goes to a new owner.
  21. Really nice Tom, would suit me down t'ground.....unfortunately the Daughter's upcoming wedding has wiped me out.
