  1. The video below shows a mate of mine (who normally plays fretted basses) having a quick mess around on the bass when it was first built last year. It's plugged into my little EBS combo, with the audio recorded by just the camera mic only.. so it's not the best sounding recording, it doesn't pick up the low end very well at all. If you go to https://www.simnettguitars.com/4string/ and scroll down, you'll find a sound clip featuring a 32'' fretless I've previously made, which has a very similar spec to this. That recording should give you a more accurate idea of the sort of tone it produces.
  2. Here's a quick photo slideshow showing the construction of the bass..
  3. I built this bass last year and it was briefly advertised for sale, before I decided that I couldn’t part with it and kept it for myself! It’s almost exactly 1 year old and has had VERY little use.. no scratches, dents, marks, etc. It looks and plays like as good as new. The photos below were taken today.. to see the original photo gallery click HERE. Please Note: As you’ll see from the photos, the Limba body has a small bark inclusion (the dark line on the top edge). This is a natural ‘defect’ and doesn’t affect the instrument in any way. The price includes a Thomann flight case. 32'' scale, lined fretless fingerboard with 22 positions. Burr English Walnut top, chambered White Limba body, Maple and Black Limba neck, Ebony fingerboard with Maple fret lines. Schaller bridge (19mm spacing) with piezo saddles, John East buffer with volume and tone control. Hipshot Ultralite tuners, Dunlop Flush Mount strap locks. Ebony knobs, Luminlay side dots, Ebony nut, stainless steel neck bolts. D'addario tapewound strings. Finished in Liberon Finishing Oil You’re welcome to try out the bass in person, please get in touch via PM or email to discuss a suitable date/time. I’m based in Burntwood, Staffordshire. UK delivery is £25 with UPS (fully insured). Please allow 2-3 days for delivery. Worldwide shipping is available, please contact me for a quote. SOLD
  4. Warwick Rockbag - ‘Premium Line' Gigbag for V and Randy Rhoads Shaped Guitars In need of a little TLC, hence the price.. the outside is generally in good condition, however there’s some loose stitching (approx 3’’) in one corner. There’s also one small tear near the main pocket (see pics). As you’ll see from the photos, the material used for the tuner/bridge patches hasn’t held up very well at all.. could do with some new patches sewing on, or perhaps some gaffa tape if you’re lazy/not good with a needle and thread 😁 Apart from that, the inside is in good condition.. no pet hair, cigarette smell, etc. I’ve previously used it with a Jackson Rhoads, it will also fit a Flying V, King V, and most other V shaped guitars. Click the link below to see exact sizes, etc: https://www.gak.co.uk/en/warwick-rb-20618b-premium-line-heavy-gigbag-for-v-guitars/34585 £30 £20 including UK delivery (UPS). Payment via PayPal or bank transfer.
  5. Recently built and never used. Top grade Birch plywood with a Sapele hardwood frame (oil/wax finish). Low profile Velcro top (won’t fuzz up), handles and screws are all stainless steel. 6x large rubber feet. Total size (including wood frame): 18” x 12”, so large enough for approx 8 standard pedals, or a wah + 6, etc. Weighs approx 2kg. It does have one one small 'defect' - a few drops of contact adhesive have seeped though the velcro in one area, it's barely noticeable and will be complexity hidden once the pedals are in place, but I wanted to mention it. SOLD
  6. Better quality photo added to original post. Last price reduction: £70 including UK postage
  7. Apologies for the late reply.. it's the same size as Bartolini BC. I can provide a routing template to the buyer if required (free of charge).
  8. Nordstrand Dual Coil 4 string pickup. Bridge position only. Parallel, 19mm spacing. Used but in excellent condition. Includes a custom wooden cover (Alder and Ziricote) made by D-Cline Design. It was installed in one of my basses for short time but after a change of pickups it's now surplus to my requirements. Mounting screws included (black). Please note: The wires have been trimmed to approx 7'', so please make sure that will be long enough for your bass before buying.. although obviously they can be extended if needed. £90 £70 including UK postage.
  9. Hipshot 5 string bridge with GraphTech piezo saddles. Brass, 18mm string spacing. Barely used, looks as good as new. £110 £80 including UK postage (UPS). SOLD
  10. Hipshot 4 string bridge with GraphTech piezo saddles. Aluminium, 18mm string spacing. Very good condition, just one little mark on the lower inside corner. Please note: The original plugs have been removed as it has previously been used with a John East buffer, rather than the GraphTech system. £70 £50 including UK postage (UPS). SOLD
  11. SOLD [url="http://u.cubeupload.com/simo/kntgIH.jpg"][/url]
  12. The tuners are now sold, the bridge is still available. Happy to post outside the UK, feel free to PM me for a quote.
