  1. Okay, that explains Apparently I don't get it so will see if I can fix things tomorrow. Imgur app is horrible and appears useless for sharing links.
  2. Yamaha RBX1000 Great high-end model from the RBX range. According to the serial explanation of Yamaha, this bass was made between 1986-1989. This RBX1000 is an active bass and has a 2eq preamp along with a vol and pan control. It is finished in a pretty trans black, which makes the (ash?) grain show through nicely. It's a pretty light bass, my kitchen scale sets it at 3,44 kilo's. So it's a comfortable bass to play for longer sets or rehears. Tonewise it's a versatile bass, and sounds serious. I like it especially with bass and treble boosted a lot for a deep thunderous modern sound. Cosmetically this bass is in "road worn" condition. It has a lot of scratches, dents and a few chips of paint missing... Technically the bass is all good. All electronics and hardware work like they should, the neck is straight and adjustable, the frets are still pretty good and allow low action. The bass has been set up with sadowsky strings. All in all this is a high quality, well used bass at a decent price. €550 The bass is located in the Netherlands, but I am happy to ship at buyers risk.
  3. For those interested; my kitchen scale says it weighs 4,37 kilo's.
  4. Well, this would fit a certain cool Music Man bitsa I got from you :). Very cool.

  8. I bought Paul's Modulus Flea, which has been a pleasant transaction. In this post-brexit situation it took 3,5 weeks and all kinds of unclear tracking situations before it got eventually delivered. Paul didn't hesitate to be on the case and enquire info when needed, which was very helpful. In short; great, committed and friendly guy to deal with. And of course the Flea is super 😎.
  9. Aria Pro ll SB1000 Great reissue of this classic by Aria, made in Korea. It's a really well built and versatile bass with great punchy sounds. The bass can be played passive (vol, tone) or active (varitone switch) and sounds great either way. The bass is in very good condition. There is a small damage to the lacquer on the front on the headstock, otherwise it looks pretty neat. All works like it should and it plays great with a low action. Asking €875 I am located in the Netherlands. Shipping is possible at buyers risk.
  10. One of the best shows I've attended must be Rival sons at de Boerderij in a town called Zoetermeer. The sound was good and felt close, and the feeling was really intimate. Another remarkable gig of them had been in Haarlem in 2013 when only a "handful" (my memory says around 50) of people attended. I could get a beer at the bar and walk straight back to the first row. The other best show I've seen must be the one that Sully Erna (frontman Godsmack) did in Amsterdam about 4 years ago. His solo stuff is really great on record and evenly great live with his band and female guest singer. Really exceptional. Of course there have been some lame shows too, but nothing I recall being exceptionally poor..
  11. I've owned a tribute L2000. That bass was nothing less compared to the US made brothers I've owned, when it came to sound, build quality and playability. I like them in natural, very classic! Glwts
  12. Those sound fantastic on a Mustang. Usually I'm not that a fan of vintage sounding flats, but these have a lot of character and are quite flexible too.
