  1. I've been telt by my Mam that there's too many Cardboard boxes cluttering her garage. I always keep them in case I sell a bass but having only ever sold 4 basses in 30 odd years who am I kidding So there's around 6 or 7 boxes,must will have had a Thomann bass in them,up for grabs. I really don't want to scrap them when somebody could get their use so drop me a line OK Pickup only I'm afraid, in Falkirk Central Scotland.
  2. @AT Giving the lumps a scrape using a new Stanley blade resulted in rough patches and a stabbed finger I imagine they happened due to a tiny wee change in pressure when squeezing out the string. No harm done as I fancied trying different strings and £13.20 delivered felt better than £19 + delivery for the Thunder Reds from Thomann. To be honest I did toy with adding a Deko B-35FL,some XLR cables and a BVT-450 to save £7 postage but that's crazy thinking.
  3. Well done Myke.And congratulations Rob on another fine jazz bass. Here's a picture showing one of the nodules my bass uke had on the D string [attachment=199040:PICT0012.jpg] That one's by the 7th and another is on the 12th. I've got a set of D'Addario Nyltech strings on the way and hopefully all will be good.Tell you what ,I found frets difficult on the 1st bass uke,with the fretless I'm struggling big time
  4. Finally collected yesterdays Deko fretless uke. Reason for Deko status - the D string has 2 nodules on the length.
  5. Glad you saw sense in the end. Flat Eric's right, they're kinda thin on the ground here. I just can't get over the condition it's in
  6. Totally agree with you there Rob. JB-75's are damn fine basses,
  7. A good while back they raised the price on some items in my order,I'd ordered late Sunday night and the rises were added 1st thing Monday morning. The difference was refunded as soon as I queried it,might be worth an email to them if it happens again.
  8. It always says " £ price is a guideline " below the Euro price. This no doubt is to cover the cache issue Mornats mentioned. Exchange rates change by the minute.
  9. HellFire that's in good nick. Can't say the same for mine sbrag. Stick to your guns and get a good price.
  10. Rotosound nylon were my go-to for years until I tried Status nylons,slimmer gauge and less tension for £20 delivered.That's for the 4 string set Fine job you've done there yorks5stringer. No deko uke today
  11. Steady on there Fretless bass uke has left UK depot so might arrive today after all.
  12. That's a result yorks5stringer and reminds me I've still not bought another set of Status nylons
  13. Fairly regular. I combat it by doing just that Helps if your self-employed and the family are up and gone.
  14. £40 well spent. And to think you were talking about packing it all in
  15. Congratulations on the Golden Anniversary Chris.
  16. May I suggest you arm yourself with a photo of a cardboard box and write Thomann on it. But this might help[attachment=198474:Thomann box.jpg] Remember the pleading look Feel free to use as the wallpaper on your phone.
  17. So not only do you have the excitement of wondering what made it a deko,you get to ask " have you got my bass ? " in various languages. Loads of fun awaiting you Monday Rob
  18. Bass uke was processed and shipped out of Cologne at 3am. Don't expect it will arrive tomorrow with it being Saturday but Monday will do fine for me
  19. Text message from Thomann saying fretless bass uke has shipped. Can't complain,that's 14.5 hours since order placed and they've been closed for 12 of those
  20. How about Dancing in the Moonlight, Thin Lizzy , Phil Lynot.
  21. When I bought my bass uke I thought " damn,should have went fretless!". Took care of that thought just now,pending request confirmed email.
  22. I'm surprised at myself and AT commenting on it being stripey. He's got a 7piece thru neck and I've a 5 piece.
  23. Good on you young fella. Ten out of ten both for going to see Misfits and having the savvy to get round security hassles. Just need to workout how you get the Iceman.
  24. Glad to hear you're enjoying the J&D. The Harley Benton uses the B-Band too, the U1.5T and I have the manual to hand if you need any info. I can't find it on the B-Band website. I use talc to combat sticky strings
  25. Don't know if this has been mentioned but the mobile version has a filter for "only in stock "dekos. Brings it into line with the desktop version,I never understand why Thomann still list sold out models,they do the same on the " blow out " pages. " Here's what you could have got " is no help.
