  1. [size=4][font="Calibri"][color="#000000"]Stunning! Could you please post a picture of the nut? Thank you. David[/color][/font][/size]
  2. I have used many sets of them. Seem to recall paying about £7.50 a set from Thomann a few years back! Very good value even at twice the price!
  3. When you say 'set up and fret dress from our guitar tech' - does that mean you are a dealer or shop?
  4. Wow - just wow! I have been lucky enough to play a few Shukers and every one has been amazing. I wish I had some spare cash!!!!!
  5. Great pictures and the back of that neck looks wonderful! I have never seen a Fender Bass case looking like that one though!
  6. [font="Calibri"][size="3"][color="#000000"]What happened to the original case? Is any case included?[/color][/size][/font]
  7. Shuker 5’s are amazing basses and so are the 4’s! Custom made by one of the finest luthiers in the UK and as each one is built by hand with different woods and hardware, each is unique. They always seem to have excellent set-ups too.
  8. [size=4][font="Calibri"][color="#000000"]Markbass TTE range sound great and combine old style tones with new technology. [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Calibri"][color="#000000"]Being lightweight too is an added bonus. [/color][/font][/size]
  9. Really great value.....I would hate to miss out on that.....
  10. Sorry - newbie alert and unable to add to a previous quote! I think Norris' idea is great!
  11. Great idea!!! Jon Shuker would also be my first choice for work such as this.
  12. I have used (and would happily recommend) Andy Manners who is based in Corsham, Wiltshire.
  13. I wouldn't knock much off at all! It sounds like somebody is trying to get the bass at a bargain price. I'd prefer a great playing and sounding bass with a changed pot over a 100% original bass with a maxed out truss rod and high action! I guess we are all different though!
  14. Pots are a wear item and can / will fail. An American dealer told me he would 'devalue' a 1961 Precision with both pots changed by £225. I wouldn't worry about a changed pot as long as the bass plays and sounds great!
  15. I like the description of 'seller refurbished' - what the feck was it like before the refurb.....................oh yes, a little nicer!
  16. I have been lucky enough to have a couple of Jon's basses in the past (and still have an amazing 5 string) and IMHO they are superbly crafted instruments. He is an incredible luthier. Well worth trying one!
  17. Just bought a Markbass head from Steve - absolutely brilliant guy to deal with and the head was mint! I'm quite tempted with this cab...............
