STU-SBL

OH.... and depending of which bass may sell I could be open to a Part EX on a bass or an amp if that helps anyone out? I need to release some finances but don't want to be a bassless bassist!

Hey Geoff! How's things mate? I love both these basses and have never had a problem letting them be good examples of the Overwater J Series. My intention when having both of these built was to get the ultimate 'players bass' that could be used in all environments and gigging situations without compromise. There are without doubt the most stable basses I have and have really enjoyed owning them. Stu

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='501532' date='May 30 2009, 12:08 PM']Sorry to hear about your situation Stu - things'll pick up for you, it's just a matter of time mate.[/quote] Thanks Alan! I've got a few things lined up and I'm still freelancing, but with a house renovation nearing completion money is tight. [quote name='4 candles' post='501533' date='May 30 2009, 12:11 PM']Why not sell the fretless, use the cash to buy an amp. Get back out there and earn some cash through gigs[/quote] It would be my first choice but I'm literally trying to survive at the moment, pay the mortgage and work [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='501535' date='May 30 2009, 12:12 PM']Jeez mate, I know exactly how you feel. I hope things turn around for you soon. Things are bottoming out at the moment, so thats something at least.[/quote] Dude... I remember chatting with you the day I was waiting to find out....oh well... I'll be popping over to NZ to see you when the bank takes my house off me lol

Thanks for your kind words and endorsements guys. I literally have tears in my eyes

Hi Guys, Anyone who knows me will appreciate how hard this is for me and if there were any other option I'd take it. Times are hard and I was recently made redundant. Although I can keep hold of these I am in the situation where they are literally my biggest assets (apart from my house) and for that reason they need to go. My paid gigs ended last year when I left a covers band and I sold my bass rig in order to fund the house and because of this I haven't played these much at all.

1 piece maple neck, rosewood board and most probably a Tulipwood body as it's a solid finish with Vintage body shape. Hipshot style B bridge and 1/2 inch Ultralite M/Heads It's also probably pre 2003/4 but can't be accurate from the photographs. Stu

[quote name='geoffbassist' post='254982' date='Aug 5 2008, 12:37 AM']mmm. not sure, i think its the first run as its 34" and has the cut away next to the g string........not really sure what the difference is though.. cheers Geoff[/quote] This is a 94 if i remember TRB5F which is unusual as it has a flat finish (instead of the usual high gloss). It's not a recent 1005F. So long before TRBII series or 1005

This was originally my bass (then owned briefly by Homer) and it's a great bass, easy to play and looks great with it's dark lines.

[quote name='Toasted' post='235704' date='Jul 9 2008, 01:42 PM']Thats really so uncool.[/quote] Too true. Unfortunately there seems to more and more of this kind of thing going on and as we're a relatively small community it's very easy to spot this kind of thing going on (except if you're new). Recently there have been instances of blatant profiteering. And while not always seen as unethical, when done in such said small community can leave a nasty feeling amongst all. I've been on the receiving end of such activities and commend you on you're control and patience. I would like to see that everyone takes the for sale section seriously - as any funny business will come back and kick you in the ass..... I wish everyone luck in selling gear, and if you make a few quid good one.... but be aware. Stu

SOLD at the weekend but it's the first chance I've had to update it

SOLD

Deal pending.. I'll keep this updated.

[quote name='ped' post='223046' date='Jun 20 2008, 04:03 PM']Amazing piece of kit!! Very good price, this should fly out! ped[/quote] Don't I know it... but I have so little time to even think about using it. I'm still involved with bass but find myself talking about it and playing less. See below

[quote name='noirpunk' post='222972' date='Jun 20 2008, 02:49 PM']how much would delivery be on that do you think?[/quote] I'd advise around £20 depending on location Stu

[quote name='BassManKev' post='222889' date='Jun 20 2008, 01:23 PM']you certainly get interest in that, good price sorry if i sounded patronising [/quote] No mate.. you didn't I just wanted to get a feel for the item before getting carried away in my head. It's something I've wanted for ages and when I get one it's never been used.... am I a fool.... yes!

[quote name='BassManKev' post='222869' date='Jun 20 2008, 01:06 PM']ul struggle to get a sale without putting a price, as people will be afraid of making offers in case they offer more than what you have in mind for it![/quote] [b]SOLD[/b] BTW. I've done this kind of thing before.. thanks for the advice anyway

I'm looking for interest in my Line6 Bass Pod Pro XT. I bought this a few months ago after selling my original Bass Pod with the intention of using it for gigging. I then left the band before it arrived and bought a house. Since then I've not played bass in a gigging level (a good 5 months). It has not been used. I bought it from a guy on here and he hadn't used it either. So it is as new and has sat safely in the box since I received. I'm kicking myself for thinking about selling it but I know others could benefit from this great piece of kit and it's new and I'm caught up in other things.... work and life in general. [b]SOLD[/b] Stu

Nice bass.... having played it. I [b]'know'[/b] the previous owner was sad to see it go.

The scale length should be 35" (nut to saddle btw), Hipshot style B bridge and UL machineheads , Kent Armstrong PU's from the picture. The pre doesn't look like one of John's (although I could be wrong) Great bass Stu

The P stands for Piezo. As far as I know they have been around for a while. The John Patitucci model would be the TRB 6JP and came originally in Amber and Charcoal Grey (IIRC). I owned a TRB 6II that's still on the forum somewhere, great basses in my opinion. Stu [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='198396' date='May 13 2008, 11:49 PM']Is that TRB-6 "P" for Patituchi or piezo? I'm guessing the former, as the piezo bridge models are much more recent, aren't they? Anyway, I have the bolt on TRB-6 II & these really are stunning basses. Really hope this one finds a good home. Unless someone offers me an Overwater 6 at stupid money, I'd never sell mine![/quote]
