  1. Someone’s in for a real treat 😊 Gutted that I’m too skint for it to be me.
  2. Never thought I’d be happy without a P, but have since proved myself wrong. Still feels odd typing that - but my playing situation has a lot to do with it too, so it’s no real issue.
  3. I really like these pups 👌 Yours is only 2 wires though, you need 4 wires to do series/parallel/single. I’ve modded one of these in the past to have 4 wires, was quite simple, but this looks stock to me…. 🤔
  4. Blooming heck mate, that blew my mind…. And there I was thinking terms like phat and heft had this covered 😊
  5. And yet this bass is still, as of today, being sold on eBay with the misleading description of it almost certainly being a 70s or 80s model based on hardware. 🤨
  6. Absolutely love this 💙 Guitar reminds me of how Keith Levene sometimes played 👌
  7. My mid 90s FL Ray put an end to my ignorant snobbery of PF - it's got more Mwah than a couple of posh birds air kissing.
  8. Not sure if this'll have any interest, but given a EBMM logo Mono case is £199, thought I'd get the advert out there for this hard case as cash would be nicer to me than a case kept in the attic. So, on the off-chance there may be some interest.... Came with a 2020 4 string EBMM StingRay Special. Following a recent 24hr listing of the bass, followed by my wife's frown and my own 'doh' forehead slap - the bass itself will be sticking around for a good while at the least. Please post here or PM for more pics.
  9. Sound clip... Preamp EQ is flat. Strings are well worn in. Played into Logic and Aguilar Plugin Suite, AG amp set flat, 2x12 cab.
  10. withdrawn now - it’s just too good really. Reluctantly listing this one - my modded ‘95 Ray gets more attention (as it’s a highly nostalgic bass for me) so as much as I like this Special I’m struggling to justify keeping it. Made in 2020, great condition, Ivory White with Rosewood fingerboard. Super comfy to play and sounds spot on - sound clip posted below. Weighs 4kg / 8.9lb. Comes with case and candy. Cheers 👍 Link to my feedback thread -
  11. Sorry to read that Bruce. This is a killer bass IMO, I had my hands on it earlier this year, the tone is really stunning too. GLWTS
  12. Which can only be a good thing then 👍
  13. I reckon Tim Burton might make his dinner in his Ninja listening to that track 👻 Yep, photo posed quite the challenge for me too (not a bad thing), so just knocked out a quick entry as my ‘jingle’ was doing my head pretty quickly 😂
  14. I’ve never been an expert by any means - every time I think the prices may have hit a ceiling, they continue to climb and climb….
  15. When I was working in the vintage guitar trade I was told in 2008 by a solid UK source that there is a group of vintage dealers in the States that get together each year prior to a trade show and certain vintage prices are set from there, and like you say, the rest follow and other vintage gear rises accordingly.
  16. First year, radio knobs, long poles… Mental price though 😊
  17. Wow, someone has beaten @Baloney Balderdash to the first tune posted! If 6 was 1 - You won't catch me singing, so because the Air Fryer poster said it's '6 in 1' I decided to do a little jingle in 6 styles.
  18. That’d be great, thanks. And hope to see you this month too, pick an inspiring picture for you! 😊
  19. Congrats @Wolfram, great tune 👌 Over to you for the October picture 👍
  20. I’d quite like this bass, but fear that it’ll always be making snide comments to me like “you ain’t half as good as my ex” 😬
  21. That’s definitely good enough, and helpful, as a decent tech will do the wiring diagram themselves and discuss options/possibilities etc. 👍

    Thanks, nice bit of history. Refund sounds good too - we used to call them 'Vintage and Dear' due to their prices, but I always got on well with the London shop folks. Cheers

    That’s cool, always nice to know a bit about the journey 👍 The acoustic tone is stunning, I often play it unplugged on the couch. It’s not looking like I’ll master fretless playing anytime soon, so this bass fits nicely in the fun to own category as it just seems way too good to pass on.
  24. Yep - still have to pinch myself that I sold it 😂 Oh well, we needed cash quick for a new floor and a couch and for some odd reason I couldn't justify keeping the bass 😕 Anyway, lovely playing in the vid Warren, and genuinely so chuffed you love it and use it. Though I very much doubt you'll ever move it on, and I can't blame you pal
