Just to clarify, my issues are about the reach to the first fret, not neck dive. Mine’s quite light too. Interesting comments about strap length @Sparky Mark- maybe I should revisit!
Exactly this. I bought a beautiful 1990 neck through some years back. The build quality, looks and tone are absolutely to die for but as soon as I stand up, it goes back in the case. Just waiting for the values to rocket now before I sell it on!
I’ve got one of these that has done loads of service with Stray. Mine had been used as a cat scratching post, so I stripped the carpet and painted it with Tuff Cab. Light, loud and nice tone GLWTS
Having recently picked up a second Big Baby Oi and realising that two was just being greedy I replied to Alan’s ‘wanted’ add and sold him my original BBii. This involved a bit of a wait and a road trip for Alan. Comms were really good and the deal was done without fuss. Deal with confidence!
That’s really pretty. Might be an idea to mention in your ad that it’s Bubinga as I think these command a premium above the ash models. I’ve got one and it’s a killer bass!
I’m a bit peed off - I had a parcel from Thomann yesterday with a HB board and separate power supply. If I’d realised these things existed, I’d probably have bought one!
I’ve just chucked a couple of sets of the value nickel rounds into a Thomann order. I’ve used Legacy strings for a while but recently strung a couple with Elixirs that I’m loving. I’ll see how well they last and if they’re as good as they’re supposed to be I might use those on the basses I play most.
