    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

  2. [quote name='Finbar' post='249082' date='Jul 27 2008, 07:47 PM']I can't order strings online from Overwater.co.uk... Anyone else finding this? I tried dropping an email to let them know about it, but that doesn't seem to be working either!

    I can just phone them if all else fails, but it'd be nice to know I'm not the only one finding this! :)[/quote]


    Just to let you know guys that things are changing on the web for Overwater.

    Strings, straps and other accessories with be available to order online again in the next few days. In the meantime phone orders through on [b]01228 590 591 [/b]

    We have a new [url="http://www.overwaterbasses.com"]Overwater Basses[/url] website and a new shop site on the way.

    Thanks

    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.

    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 :)

  5. [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!

  6. [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]

    BTW. I've done this kind of thing before.. thanks for the advice anyway



  7. 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.

  8. 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]

  9. Hi Matt,

    I use/ have used the wall hangers for both my Overwater's and have had no problems.

    I wouldn't worry about using them as they are well made an more than capable of holding the weight of you Progress 6. However, as you have a weighty bass I'd recommend ditching the supplied screws and depending on the version you get (mine don't have the wooden block) fit a wall plate if used on a stud wall - I used a surplus piece of mahogany. This distributes the weight across 2 or 3 studs (wooden uprights) and helps a lot if you're not that good at hitting the studs dead centre.

    If screwing in to brick/ stone and plaster work get the appropriate plugs, and or fixings.

    You have a heavy bass.... just screw it well .. ummmm :)
