  1. "This item is in excellent condition" - except for the fact that the frets have been ripped off with a crowbar!
  2. It's not a Ric - it's a Chickenbacker, probably £250 new (give or take the paint job). (Oh, and I've played my Ric through your amp, and it sounded pretty good!)
  3. Thanks for you hospitality, Andy; it was nice chatting with you and your lovely lady too! (Oh, and the cab was exactly what I wanted, so that was an easy buy...)
  4. I've always wanted one of these, but sadly that's more than I've got to spend.
  5. Yep - l leave my current job on Wednesday, start a new one on Thursday, and then it's Bass Show on Saturday.
  6. If he wants to sell it he should pull out all the stops.
  7. The seller said he's been told they are really expensive.
  8. I think that disclosure would be good, but it's perfectly alright (and even enhancing) to have had work done by a respected maker/repairman. Dunno what the impact on value would/should be though.
  9. Status were first called Strata, but Fender got on their case, so they re-branded. The Japanese Status pre-dated that, but the seller has confused the two; this one's just a 70s copy, nothing special.
  10. I've got an S1 5-string too; it's a nce, light, fast, comfortable bass. I'd replace it with a headless graphite one, but that would cost a heck of a lot more!
  11. I've got an AH150; I bought it new in the 80s and it did the club circuit fine, running through a Marshall 4x12. I've now also got an Elf, but I've not used it much - I just had to have one...

  13. I'd really like a 5-string one.
  14. It is probably the crappiest bass I ever saw.
  15. Ah yes - the lovely signature stripes don't go all the way along.
  16. I had an SB700, which was a nice bass, but very big; I always considered it to be the cheaper version of the SB1000 (which Jack Bruce used).
  17. I was planning on going on the Saturday; might check out Chris Childs and Guy Pratt.
  18. "Condition: For parts or not working"
  19. I reckon the price accidentally shifted a couple of decimal points.
  20. Whereabouts in the country is it?
  21. Looks kosher to me...
  22. :-) I was thinking about a 12-step, but the USB-MIDI converter box seems a bit naff. I'm not surprised there's a lot of space inside a PK-5, really, as the logic board should be relatively simple; I wish they'd put the power supply inside, though!
  23. I was going to make an offer on that, till the "plays like butter" - I don't fancy having to keep wiping my fingers...
