power of ten, is the white Bongo in your sig my old 4HS? does Stranraer and an Asat semi-hollow mean anything to you? my apologies if it wasnt you. anyway great collection of EBMMs you have

I used to own an older passive Corvette Std in ash with the wenge neck. I got it used for £300 and it was terrific. imo a much better bass than the streamer Std I owned a little later.

that SB-2 is the dogs danglies ! seller has some great G&L bass stock.this lake placid blue L-2000 has free shipping to the UK, with VAT & Duty less than £750 new [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-G-L-USA-L-2000-Electric-Bass-in-Lake-Placid-Blue_W0QQitemZ310055918336QQihZ021QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/New-G-L-USA-L-2000-E...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url]

does this qualify as porn? not sure but its sentimental to me here's my fretless I made back in 96/97 when I was studying guitar making and repair at the Leeds College of Music,Ialso made a fretted one the same with a laquered mahaogany body which I'll post some pics up of soon ash/maple/rosewood with Duncan Basslines MM alnico p/up and Basslines 3 band MM circuit with the push/pull slap switch tuners are Schaller BMs and the bridge is a Schaller 3D cheers Keir

thats sweet looking and so versatile too! I'm wanting a G&L 5 stringer myself.

its a beauty but as stated,overpriced bottom right pic there is some mega heavy figure lines in that neck,very nice indeed

black pre EB Stingray

a lakland JO or DJ? or if its just a traditional bass which can do a multiple number of tones active or passive - a L2500?

I'd happily buy, own and play any good quality P that had a single coil at the bridge and a 1.5'' nut. mines is called a G&L SB-2

[quote name='silverfoxnik' post='205802' date='May 25 2008, 01:28 AM']Both lovely basses DJ, but the Bolin in particular is exceptional! I've never seen a nicer looking single-cut bass...[/quote] thanks for the kind words. I agree,I think it is very elegant looking. [quote name='Buzz' post='205917' date='May 25 2008, 12:20 PM']MMmm, I like the look of that valenti[/quote] thanks. I'm no expert on J basses but I've played enough to know this one is right up there. Thinking about it, I'm pretty sure the 3 previous owners all had Sadowskys which may be the the only reason for it not stopping in any one place too long. This bass has replaced my G&L SB-2 as my "go to" 4 string and if I ever see another Valenti up for sale/trade I think one of the G&L's is for the chop. :brow: Keir

BB,the Bolin plays great seated or standing. the extender is ugly but i wish i had one on my Asat bass. Ped,I have the same number as I had when I got the StingRay 5 back in March - 8 - since then a pair of Sterlings and the flame maple natural Spector have gone and in came the Bolin,Valenti and a Godlyke Disciple 5

together:

This Valenti has travelled around the country a fair bit and I've been interested in it since it first appeared for sale/trade here on BC. I wanted a Jazz bass and I'm really glad its this one I've got... Its sublime and my new #1 player ! This Bolin NS 5 has been owned by at least a couple of other basschatters too. Inspiring to play,the piezo sounds terrific and theres loads of tones on tap. I also love the singlecut and slotted headstock

Dave,you probably know now I wasnt lying when I said at the time, I had to get it out the house because after a fettle it played slicker than my USA ones I was a right twat letting it go so I'm glad you're still very happy with it.I'd definetely buy another Tribute L2K or hopefully a JB-2 sometime in the future.

G&L Tribute L-2000? It does a ton of bass sounds and it just kills the 3 basses you mention imo

[quote name='silverfoxnik' post='194302' date='May 7 2008, 11:51 PM']+1 There's some great bass playing on Roxy Music albums.. The bass on 'Mother of Pearl' on the Stranded album is just wonderful![/quote] absolutely! funky,melodic and immensely inspiring
