[quote name='mybass' timestamp='1450635990' post='2934493'] Asking what I think is a decent £550 on Basschat for this lovely headless fretless I made a while back that is virtually unused except for two gigs. A mini 'hit' at a recent bass bash, it has a beautiful body made from very old mahogany for the back with black USA walnut top and a five piece maple/wenge neck with macassar ebony fingerboard. Pickups are Seymour Duncan humbuckers, passive controls. The tuning system cost a small fortune, even for a licensed system. It has a 'Warwick' soft case too. Made for myself, I found I was not a headless person though I sometimes lose my head when paying out for woods and hardware for new basses! The bass sound though is huge, from a great wood and pickup combination. It was a one off but I like the design with top contour off a P bass which does give it a 'full' bass feel. There are two large size end strap buttons that provide alternate playing strap options. It uses normal single ball end strings. [/quote] bump

[quote name='spuggy9' timestamp='1450650193' post='2934659'] My hat is off to you as you did a fine job on this !! If by Stratford , you meant Stratford Connecticut in the U.S.A. , I would meet you , but I'm certain you don't. .. Funny thing is ,there is a Shakespeare Theater in Stratford that at one time hosted some fine concerts. Again , Great work !! [/quote] Hey thanks for the kind comments 'spuggy9'....sorry I won't quite make it to your Stratford!

Just to add that I have been making basses albeit as a part time builder for over 15 years, usually to order rather than a 'production line' merchant. My own use basses have seen thousands of gigs and using them myself on gigs is usually how orders have come in. Always set up and 'settled in' before going out on the road.

shame you aren't nearer me either... but thanks for looking. I am not sure what postage would be. I can always find out and maybe should have done before my holiday. I saw a decent mains plug for about £6 on Ebay recently and not a cheap looking far east one (which I did use once and wasn't impressed0. The Boss one is in the £20 vicinity price. My last one got trashed on stage, my fault too!.

[quote name='Shabbs' timestamp='1439209123' post='2840815'] What type of plug does the power supply take? [/quote] This is off the Boss website, (a 3 pin wall plug adapter plug). 'Power Supply DC 9V; ACadaptor (PSC-series)' (should probably read 'AC adaptor' as two words).
