Hi I purchased Als Lemonbacker last year when I started taking lessons. The bass has had some changes made by my tutor who is also a luthier. I do not have a camera but if you go to the build section you can see all the photos put on by Al. I want anyone interested to come and play the guitar as it has a unique sound and I do not feel competent enough to answer technical questions, So if you do not want to spend £2000 on a new Rickenbacker then you may be interested in this one off for £400 which is what I paid Al for same. Please pm me with your phone number to discuss trial. I live close to Al in Huddersfield Thanks COLIN

Hi Will I have a near mint Status Shark and Al Healeys Lemonbacker Ric Copy if any interest please ring on 01924 848453 Thanks COLIN
Hi Please see Arena"s blog in the gear section by searching for Asama. There are photos posted and a good write-up. Looking for a ric copy to trade. Please contact Bassasin re info as Jon thought this is a rare guitar indeed.Hope you don"t mind the ref Jon but we all recognise your expertise with Japcrap. Other trades considered. The only reason I wish to trade is that as a beginner the array of special effects leaves me feeling frustrated as I have no idea how to use same. Everything Arena said about the bass is true and it is in excellent condition. Scale length is 33 and a half inches, No wear on frets and no marks on neck. No dings and other than a few light scuffs on the edges in great condition as Arenas photos show. The guitar was sat in a frint room for 20 years and unused.hope someone is interested COLIN
Hi I have the ASAMA bass that ARENA had on the site a few weeks ago. Do a search and see the photos. It is a 1970"s made in japan bass with a whole set of tricks ie distortion effects etc, I think it may be the only one in the UK, PM me if you would like a trade? COLIN
