I was just considering selling mine as I'm a bit overloaded with basses currently but then I played it again and the neck is absolutely to die for . If only they did it in a short scale.

I've wanted one of these for ages but whenever they've come up the ones I've seen have always been a bit to dear for the condition they are in. They look like they should cost £400ish (unless it's the white one !)!

My second Vox has just arrived - a black 2s - think I like the look of it even more than the red 1H . Set up was fine but I did note it had been done by the same QA inspector as the first ( Luis).

Hope your replacement is a good one fretmeister as they are definitely a cracking little bass if you get a good one.

I bought a Donner strat off ebay this week and had a similar problem - an unplayable neck,  its a lovely looking thing in coral pink. I wanted to send it back and get a replacement and they've just told me to keep it and they'll send me another ! Now I have one to fettle with for free ! 

Got a 1H Starstream today - for £199 it was a no brainer. It arrived and was set up really well. I oiled the fretboard and gave it a polish and will put new strings on it , but it's a perfect bass for noodling on the couch given its weight. I liked it so much I ordered a 2S and was considering a third to set up as a piccolo or as an upgrade project.

That looks amazing. I had a Fibenare guitar and it was one of the finest built instruments I've ever owned.

Sorry Richard,

That should have been a PM.

No probs at all good luck with the sale.

Completely agree with TheGreek - bought it for looks but was completely underwhelmed.

I bought a used Aria Tab66 for a fraction of the price and it is so much better.

Oh, Edmund, can it be true, that I hold here in my mortal hand a Charvel San Dimas of purest green?

I now do and it's truly awesome ! Nicest neck of any bass I've ever owned !

Thanks Guys will give it a whirl.

I picked up a lovely SWB-1 off ebay yesterday and the action is playable but a bit high for my tastes. Looking at the neck it has too much relief so I was hoping a truss rod adjustment would sort it out.

The rod is accessed at the neck end of the bass and looking from here I turned the allen key clockwise, but things seem to get looser rather than tighter. there is more resistance turning the key anticlockwise. Have i misinterpreted the righty -tighty rule ?

Anybody got any thoughts or experience of the Chowny's ? I have in my head that Maruszycks worked differently and wondered if the Chowny's were the same.

Just put another lottery ticket on !🤞

Yes the swb is also a joy to play - perfect balance and the EMG's sound great.

Here's my three - got flats on the SWB pro and rounds on the ACG which is just an absolute masterpiece.

The baby in the middle is an RMI Boomslang nano which is strung piccolo and great fun to play.

Don't think I'd pay £1.20 with that action !

Completely agree with all of the comments above. I bought Claire's Mod Duo pedal and everything was perfect.

Thanks Claire.

Bought Luke's ACG Krell and it's truly one of the best basses I've ever owned.Luke wanted to ensure that the bass was packaged appropriately for delivery which meant I had to wait a bit longer than usual , but it was definitely worth it.

Recommended BC'er !

This is worth a watch - it's pretty funny

Hi, could you post a picture of the ding or any other blemishes please. This is truly stunning !

It's still gorgeous ! Have a bump on me.

I'm dying to see what pups it has .

Is it a flea bass or possibly a Rickenbarker ?

The nicest bass for sale on BC at the moment  !
