    Damaged Head

    If you look at the link below (to the Repairs section on Basschat), you should be able to find a recommended luthier that is fairly close to you. Most decent luthiers would be able to sort out a break of the nature that you've experienced fairly quickly and easily (and without ridiculous expense).
  2. very lovely indeed - studio standard and found in some really high-end live rigs. These are very expensive now, especially with the ears - looks like a bargain to me!
  3. Born on Monday. Isn’t she lovely, just a few days old etc. Absolutely stunning, brand new bass from a first class seller at an amazing discount. As an Overwater player, I can recommend most highly, and this is a fantastic spec!

    Relisted

    What a really lovely looking thing and I like the added pickup - very cool bass indeed
  5. Definitely one of the nicest and most realistically-priced CS Js I've seen - a very lovely bargain. I've had a few CS/Masterbuilt Js and all were impressive instruments - each played very well indeed
  6. Flatwound strings, light use - nice and clean! I think these are Fender (from the ball ends) and feel like medium gauge - cut for a Fender P or J. Silks in decent condition. £7 includes shipping to UK
  7. Bridge and pickup covers for a Precision bass - nicely aged but not battered. Includes aged screws. £20 includes shipping in the UK
  8. 3 aged Precision scratchplates, all in excellent (aged) condition. All 13 hole pattern. One Limelight 4ply tort, one 3 ply mint green, and one anodised aluminium. Sold as a job lot only I’m afraid. £40 includes UK shipping
  9. Lovely sort of Alembic/CT hybrid - fantastic price for a hand-built neck through imo
  10. Stupendously lovely bass, stupendously lovely seller. I’d never heard of MPU and now I need one. Looks to be a fab price for such hand-built quality (and a filter circuit)
  11. Absolutely gorgeous - I love these. I saw one in a shop in Paris around 1980. I already owned a fretted, maple Ripper but was rather taken by the two-tone sunburst on the fretless and hadn't been previously aware that they were available. There aren't too many of these basses around ('wonder if it's the same one and it made its way to Ireland?) I didn't have the cash at the time and many years on I realise that my fretless playing is inadequate to justify an emotional purchase. Weird though, I remember vividly my first sighting of such a lovely bass. It made such an impression that I had my Ripper re-finished but in 3TS within the year. GLWTS, a lovely instrument with a distinctive character and tone (and a pic of mine!) - and a Bump for a fabulous bass, of course
  12. A very beautiful bass - I'm a big fan of the stack knob configuration and the burst on this looks lovely. I had a relic '64 and it was a fabulous instrument in so many ways. Many of these CS instruments really are impressive. If I may say so, a very realistic price on this too (IMO of course)
  13. Original Lakland cream case - £40. Good functional condition but used and several marks, scratches, scars etc. In the tolex. These are really beautiful cases (indeed, my favourite), though this one has been gigged. All latches work but no key. This is packed and ready to. I can ship in the UK for £10. Collection is possibe from Manchester
  14. ahh...thanks for the clarification - I didn't know this (and to be honest, I didn't spec either of my basses but find them supremely easy to play and endowed with an extremely useable range of essential and classic Fender-type tones)
  15. I'm not sure if the sunburst counts as a custom shop but it was certainly a custom order - bound and pearl dots J neck with a Lollar pickup installed at the factory
  16. I too saw the Gumtree ad - it looked very mucky in the original images - looking cleaner now (but the funk is still in the frets)! I used to have one of the these - fabulous growl and great playability
  17. And very impressive it was too - from what I remember, there was an SVT and fridge rig
  18. Unless I’m going nuts, with Musical Youth outside the town hall in Birmingham - maybe around 2015?
  19. Congratulations on the acquisition - fantastic amps! I use a DB750 in a Rhino foam sleeved 4u rack. It’s an excellent case and isn’t too deep - it’s also not ridiculously heavy, though of course, it’s not lightweight. They’re around £140 from Flightcase Warehouse. I’d strongly recommend - great, quick service and delivery too. You’ll see here that mine’s on a wheeled board - also from FW
  20. What an absolutely staggering bass - one that I've had the great pleasure of seeing and hearing in action!
  21. I've been using these for the past 3 or 4 months on Fender type basses and I'm really enjoying them - I moved over from exl220s (40-60-75-95). The difference isn't massive but the lighter gauge is preferable for me and there's plenty of bright twang if that's what you're looking for. I've been shopping around but picked-up a few sets at about £18-19 including shipping
  22. Ahh, Trace - to me still some of the best gear out there (love the classic Trace tone) and at the prices that these go for now, it’s a no brainer. Always know there’s going to a great bass tone when I walk into a venue and see a Trace stack
