What’s with that Bacci bass 🥴

…….to add to my previous post. 1: I’ve also had the reply “ we won’t insure you as you might be driving Boy George home and have an accident etc etc! 2: The company used by me via the Musicians Union many years ago was a broker in North London. I discovered they weren’t getting the best price, costing me well over £100 more per year. My wife was a teacher and Aviva had links with her Teachers Union so we moved to Aviva putting her car as the main one but I’m thinking it may have been easier to insure with them as a musician because I was the second car on the policy. As I now use her car for ULEZ zone gigs, I’ve updated our Aviva policy to include her car for business.

Aviva, both cars registered for business, the second car only cost an approx extra £12 for business…..actual cost will depend on what car, your age, normal use for etc…I recently read of someone who was given a fine for driving without insurance cover for use as business, best to cover all possible types of car usage insurance.

Try contacting MarkBass first?

Sprinkler Band doesn’t ring a bell either.

I don’t know a Gary Deans…?

I just found this, the link may work … https://propermusic.com/products/visitor2035-visitor2035?_pos=1&_sid=16c45bc39&_ss=r

Available direct from Proper Music UK ……I hope the link works https://propermusic.com/products/visitor2035-visitor2035?_pos=1&_sid=16c45bc39&_ss=r

😆. Thanks for the message….as far as I know the CD is once again available but more than likely by ordering from a record shop…. As it’s through Proper Music, they may do what amp companies do and ‘ask’ the shop to order a minimum amount! I’m not sure if anyone can order direct from Proper… I might look that up but I’m in Canada Ay the mo so might be a tad difficult.

Try ‘Allparts’ in the U.K. and Thomann

Thanks so far people….I foresaw difficulties 🥴

A possible choice, thanks.

Left here for past touring in the U.K. and Europe, time to ‘go home’ now……the Mono case is a double thick padded most expensive one that will be boxed.

I will be trying to direct the owner to take on the majority of work towards getting his US made guitars home. I can facilitate by being home to pass the package on or to someone flying over there.

I’ll look into them, thanks.

I have done that thanks….I’m looking for any Basschat experience as a helping hand. If a link is given I can send it to the USA.

I may be sending two guitars back to the owner in the USA, inside a Mono dual bag.Insurance is a must as they are worth a few grand. I've looked at a couple of places online, the DHL site didnt promise an easy way and another site only insured £2000 maximum. Whether the owner gets hit with tax or not isn't a problem (for me) as he will have to give proof of ownership along the way. Any ideas, sites etc would be appreciated, especially if one of you has successfully shipped to the USA.
