  1. I sold my Aerodyne Jazz Bass today to Emanuele - good guy who made the transaction and communications leading up to the sale easy and pleasant. I would have no hesitation about dealing with him again and also recommending him to others. Thanks mate!
  2. Thank you sir! He speaks the truth..
  3. Hi, I'm only looking to sell, not looking for trades as I need the money for my wedding. This is an awesome Japanese made Fender Aerodyne Jazz Bass (serial number Q092105), fitted with Jim Dunlop strap locks, a new Badass II Bass Bridge (very valuable and now almost impossible to get hold of) and a set of DiMarzio Model P/J pickups. It looks and sounds great, the bass is light and plays like a dream. The addition of the upgrades in the form of the DiMarzio pickups and the Badass bridge make it sound fantastic. This bass has been well looked after, and is In very good condition with just a small dent on the back of the bass (please see pics). Weighs 3.9 kg and comes with gig bag. Collection from Brighton strongly preferred but can send by courier within the UK only at additional cost to the buyer.

  4. Price drop to £475 bump. Come on now, don't be shy...
  5. Apologies for gatecrashing this topic with a shameless plug but.... I'm selling my Bassix Hi-Tech RC bass here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/304311-bassix-eub-for-sale-no-trades-price-drop-to-l500/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/304311-bassix-eub-for-sale-no-trades-price-drop-to-l500/[/url] Has a 42" scale but can also be dismantled down to slightly longer than the size of a bass guitar. Sounds really good, is easy to get around so may be worth taking a look.
  6. Thanks very much! Alan Hatswell is also a great guy, and very helpful guy to speak to on the phone when it comes to providing additional info on his instruments.
  7. Just to add some additional information on the Bassix: The bass weighs 6.7kg. When dismantled the bass measures about 49.5 inches in length from top of the headstock to the bottom of the bridge. The best sounding EUB you'll find for £500.
  8. I've edited the listing and the photos have now been sorted out so they're no longer displaying sideways. Bumping for a quick sale and the bass is also listed elsewhere so may not be around too long. Lovely instrument at a good price!
  9. This happens to me almost every time I look at BassChat for over 15 minutes. Just like everyone else it just kicks in when I'm on BC. I'm running Windows 10 Home on the PC with Firefox as the browser (with or without an ad blocker it stills happens). I use my Norton Antivirus / SpyWare scan immediately afterwards and as others have pointed out, it doesn't pick anything up. I'm also making sure to delete the temporary files as part of this process. Most strange and it's also getting somewhat aggravating.
  10. Hi all, I'm selling my Bassix Hi-Tech RC EUB dating from 2002-2004, I need to raise some money for my wedding so please no trade offers. This bass is hand made and hand finished by Alan Hatswell at Bassix. He has been retired for a while so it's probably quite a rare instrument too. More information can be found about Alan Hatswell's Bassix instruments on his Facebook page: [url="https://en-gb.facebook.com/bassixbasses/"]https://en-gb.facebo...m/bassixbasses/[/url] I bought this second hand two years ago and have had a crack in the fibreglass side moulding professionally repaired. The original end pin was slightly bent when I bought the bass so I replaced it, and can also include the original as I still have it. This bass has been well looked after with a few dents and knocks but nothing serious. The bass has a 42 inch scale and is strung with a new set of D'Addario Helicore Hybrids. It has a much more natural double bass-like tone than any other EUB you'll find for the same asking price sounding good played pizzicato and bowed. The bass can be quickly and easily dismantled and reassembled and packs down to just slightly longer than the size of a bass guitar. [url="https://ibb.co/i4jPO5"][/url] [url="https://ibb.co/hxSYGQ"][/url] [url="https://ibb.co/n8efwQ"][/url] [url="https://ibb.co/ivLnbQ"][/url] Comes with a thin soft case and the stand pictured in the photos. There is a slight issue with the onboard EQ that if you slide the bass on the instrument up to full you get some distortion on the D string when playing hard but I've also just got round this by keeping the bass EQ lower on the instrument and boosting the volume and bass on my amp. Due to the somewhat fragile nature of the instrument's side moulding and the fact that the soft case for this ain't all that great, I would prefer not to have to courier this so collection from Brighton, East Sussex for this. Come and try it out and grab yourself a bargain.
  11. Having played acoustic bass guitars with 32" and 34" scales I'd say always go with a 34"; they sound better and project a better bass sound overall. Bearing in mind you don't want to make an already limited instrument (in terms of acoustic volume and tone), any less loud or full sounding. A great acoustic bass with a 34" scale is the [url="http://stanford-guitars.com/guitars/lo-freak/stanford-robot-4-fretless/"]Stanford Robot acoustic bass[/url]. They're not crazily expensive and are very well made with a distinctive design, I picked one of these up second-hand and it's a beauty! Looks and sounds really good and feels good to play. The unusual positioning of the sound hole also seems to make it sound louder (to the person playing it if no one else), when playing with another acoustic guitar.
  12. I'd like to add a recommendation for Nick Benjamin based in Lewes, East Sussex [email protected] Very helpful guy, was willing to take a look at my EUB when I was struggling to find someone locally who could sort out the problem even though it appeared to electrical. Nick quickly diagnosed and solved the issue. Worth keeping in mind if you live in the Sussex area..
  13. Price dropped again to £200, I repeat - excellent bass at a great price!!
  14. The price has now been dropped to £265!!! The best acoustic bass you'll find for this price anywhere!!!
  15. I've updated the ad with additional pictures and the price is reduced to £275. Grab yourself a bargain!
