  1. Nice! I might keep an eye out for a fretless version - always hankered after trying a fretless, just never had the courage!
  2. Just picked up this Bass Collection Pbass off Gungetree It's a real corker and was £90! It's not too heavy, has a slim-ish 40mm neck which I really like and sounds great. An after market loom and a Squier pickup have been fitted An awful lot of bass for the money!
  3. I think their customer service can be hit and miss, but I sold a bass on commission through them - they got the price we agreed, I got the amount I wanted and it all went through smooth as silk
  4. Thanks but I shall decline. Walk away, nothing to see here......
  5. ..and done. All being well I'll be taking this off your hands tomorrow - it's only a 4 gadzillion to one chance 😂
  6. Ooh loverly......just signing into the Lotto website for a tenner's worth!
  7. a billy bargain this. I don't need it, but my trigger finger is itching!
  8. Ibanez basses usually have slim necks and are pretty competitive for example https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1993-Ibanez-SR800-Soundgear-SDGR-bass-guitar-MIJ-Active-Electronics/232799936045?hash=item3633f51e2d:g:j8YAAOSwXudbG8vG and then there's Cort https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cort-Action-Bass-V-Active-4-String-Bass-Guitar-Red-Wood-Finish/302765575073?hash=item467e3c0ba1:g:HnAAAOSwh79bEoh8 Haven't owned or played either but they generally get good reviews
  9. Is this an MIJ one?
  10. Good job you have large pants then! 😃
  11. You might try letting Bass Direct sell this on commission. I sold my blue one of these through them and got considerably more back after they had taken their 20%.
  12. Clucking bell.....I think you win the p*ss*ng contest BigRedX 😊 I take my best gear (Mike Lull M4V + EBS amp & Berg 12" cabs). I work on the principle that most will think my bass is a cheap copy (Mike who..?) so it's relatively safe from the grabbit & leggit brigade
  13. Thanks, that gives me an idea as I had a Sandberg myself which wasn't at all heavy. Does it neck dive at all? I tried a Jap precision once which had an alarming propensity for the headstock to dive towards the floor at any opportunity. Where abouts in South Yorkshire? I live in Nottingham, but work in Hucknall so would be keen to pop round for a try-out one evening if that would be ok?
  14. Any idea of weight and what's the nut width at the neck?
  15. Welcome Bob!
  16. If you decide to ship I'm interested
  17. I believe I have a solution........it might hurt a bit tho One of the best threads in ages!
  18. Welcome Ian As this is a UK forum you are required to pass a test on knowledge of tea, biscuits, cricket, haggis, welsh cakes, warm beer and moaning about the weather! I see you are in Seattle, the home of my favourite luthier Mike Lull. Having said that the Marco basses look interesting - any UK stockists?
  19. Welcome, this is a fantastic forum. Keep away from the Basses for Sale section unless you want to end up thinking about selling a kidney to fund something you're GASSING over!
  20. Also excellent stuff! I might be interested in your bass soon, but waiting for someone to buy my T-Bird! I'd also need to think about the 38mm neck - I prefer 40mm Anyway, GLWTS in the meantime
  21. 6 pages of chat....Daltrey's PR people know their stuff! Quadraphenia is a work of genius imo...........discuss!
  22. And I've now bought the same pedal from Dave. Smooth easy transaction with no drama!
  23. +1 for the Fretboard and Facebook groups - there are some specific acoustic gear ones
