  1. Excellent Basschat support - Cheers chaps, that’s really helpful...well I think it is, I can sense the shear fear from Mrs Raslee......Right Ida Mk1 😆
  2. Think I may consider another Sandberg to add to my current 3. I’m slowly Gasing for this bass Prince is playing, yet I’m clueless to what the model is.
  3. Yup! Sandberg have got it right. I was a Fender or Lakland chappy but I’m a total convert - now I have 3 Sandbergs! Should really use this moment to add a cheeky pic...and a huge thanks to @edstraker123 for my recent Bullet addition 😊. Still smitten with them all.
  4. Bums, Elites low B's don't work on a fanned fret 6 er'!

      Cheers man, i'll have a look :)

  6. The pickup can be passive, the pre amp does the work. The Aguilar P60 that I’ve got is a tried & tested decent pick up, as aforementioned that I have fitted. But to be honest I thought the stock was really equally as good. I’ve been through a lot of pick ups over the years and was a little disappointed that I didn’t gain anything significant with the Aguilar, yet I know it’s a great pick up - perhaps a touch less top end but not as much bottom end as the stock Sandberg.
  7. Lots of bottom and the P sound you say? Look no further than the Sandberg Electra VS4 and thank me later. Oh and Hartke combos are pretty decent - I’ve got the HD25 for the living room and occasional jam, holds up well with good tone. However if looking on the bargain front a cheap second hand TCElectronic 250W will see you smiling for a while.
  8. They really are great basses for the money, I love mine to bits. On the EQ I used slightly more bass and rolled of the treble to tame those highs. That said I’ve recently put an Aguilar P60 in mine and an older Electra preamp which has a passive option. I like it, but I also liked it stock too.
  9. Best purchase i'd say this year was my Sandberg Electra VS4 P bass, simply bloody phenomenal for the money - plays lovely. I've recently put an Aguilar Pickup in it and i still can't quite make up my mind if i preferred the stock. Worst, Hartke TX600 amp, - bought two Hartke HD112's earlier this year which i quite like so thought i'd do the Hartke stack thing...and well...er na...first product i've ever sent back to the supplier. It just didn't cut it for me at all despite some perseverance.....eventually picked up a used HA7000 of here for peanuts...that defiantly gives the Hartke sound.
  10. Stunning mate , my YOB too...ahh dreams
  11. Bought a 6 string fanned fret bass off Dave and he even delivered from Dorset to Devon - total star and a big thumbs up from me. Deal in confidence. Loving the bass...but still not sure what that 6th string is all about 😂
  12. Was supposed to be thinning the herd...oh dear :D

      Whilst not wanting to belittle your efforts to correct a minor oversight, you have left some low hanging fruit.  You only have yourself to blame...

  13. Pearl Jams Jeremy - i have to use my own therapeutic techniques i use in the day job to help myself out when that internal jukebox plays at the 3am toilet visit....
  14. And ....:sold to the dude 😎
  15. Replied...sorry the late reply, NHS worker by day....knackered by night
  16. Interested in any trades ? Or part trades?
  17. Yes I think it’s a good price, cracking build these 900’s. I guess the market is understandably slow at the moment.
  18. These Ibanez SR900's are well known great basses and get a lot of love......apart from those bleddy Bart Mk1's pickups in my opinion, i hate them! I wanted a better jazz sound and found a great creative solution - fitted Seymour Quarter Pounders (£100) and with wood pickup covers to look the part - a vast improvement in sound and looks IMO. The original Bart Mk1's will be added to the sale should you wish to burn them. This bass has been professionally stripped to the natural wood and I'm sure you'll agree it looks really great. Plays superb, sounds great and looks damn sexy! Neck through, string through, mother of pearl inlays, lightweight, comfortable, fast jazz like neck, very low action, Bartolini pre, curved body....the best bass you'd get for under £300 i'd say. Can add a decent hard case for £35. SOLD 😊
  19. Trade for a Sandberg ???, can add cash to the right deal.
  20. Work in progress, will leave Om on until sale. It’s a cracker! Will put a fresh set of Roto’s on too.
  21. Hi mate, yes bit of quandary as I’d rather not remove them unless I have to. If you’re inclined to buy then I’ll remove the stickers no problem. There’s nothing wrong on the bass ie not covering any horror stories - all the stickers are approx 6 months old. Update...ok, I’ve caved in - I shall remove the stickers now 😊
  22. Need to recoup some funds so sadly putting this one up as no bites on my Marvit Jazz I have up here. STICKERS NOW REMOVED Stickers are fresh, less than 6 months - so no marks - was recreating a bass owned in the past. So, the ‘Duff bass’ although I was more inspired by the Ozrics (clearly), It is totally original 1987, MIJ, lightweight under 8.5lbs, Hipshot D-tuner, low action, sounds superb. I will regret this one and will withdraw if my Marvit sells. Can courier at cost & risk to buyer. Can thrown in a decent newish hard case for an extra £35.
