Love Sheryl Crow. In the 90's I stopped playing and for the most part listening to music. I only bought half a dozen CD's. Sheryl Crow and Oasis. Check her out on Tiny Desk.

I purchased this new in October last year. I bought it on impulse when I bought the TMB30 (may as well get "hanged for a sheep as a lamb"). The spec is listed below. The two controls are both stacked, volume and balance and bass and treble boost and cut. It has a great range of tones. I’ve never gigged it and it’s never left my music room. It is in mint condition. It weighs 8.9lb. I’m selling it as part of my wind down. The price includes UK delivery. Neck & Fretboard Neck Type: TMB4 Neck Joint: Bolt-on Neck Material: Roasted Maple Neck Finish: Gloss Polyurethane Neck Thickness (1st fret, mm): 21.5 Neck Thickness (12th fret, mm): 24.5 Scale (mm): 864 Nut Width (mm): 41 End Width (mm): 62 Number of Fret: 20 Fretboard: Bound Rosewood Fretboard Radius (mm): 240 Fret Type: Medium Inlay: Acrylic block Hardware & Electronics Body Top Material (For Solid): Tamo Ash Body Material (For Solid): Poplar Body Finish: Gloss Polyurethane Total Length (mm): 1130 Body Thickness (mm): 40 Body Length (mm): 483 Body Width (mm): 355 Bridge: B10 Active or Passive: Active Nut: Plastic Machine Head: Ibanez machine heads Hardware Color: Chrome Neck Pickup: Dynamix P Bridge Pickup: Dynamix J EQ (Active): Ibanez Custom Electronics 2-band EQ Controls, Pickup Selector: 1 Volume, 1 Balancer, Bass, Treble String Gauges (from top to bottom): .045/.065/.085/.105

I purchased this new in November last year. I was inspired to upgrade after buying an Ibanez TMB30. The spec is listed below. I’ve gigged it twice and it’s a fantastic bass. It looks and plays great and I’ll be sad to see it go. I’m selling it as part of my wind down. It is in mint condition. It weighs 7.8lb. The price includes UK delivery.

Ibanez TMB30 Talman Short Scale Bass, Ivory ON HOLD
probonopublico posted a topic in Basses For Sale
Price: £110 I purchased this new in October last year. My first short scale bass and it’s a great little bass to play. The spec is listed below. I’ve gigged it twice and it put me on the road to upgrading to a Sire U5. It is in mint condition. It weighs 7.8lb. I’m selling it as part of my wind down. It comes with Allen keys and a G4M gig bag. The price includes UK delivery. Body and Bridge Material: Poplar Construction: Bolt-On Finish: Ivory Bridge: B10 Bridge Neck and Fingerboard Neck Material: Maple Neck Shape: TMB4 Scale Length: 30" Fingerboard Material: Jatoba Fret Size: Medium Inlays: White Dots Hardware and Electronics Neck Pickup: Dynamix P Neck Pickup Bridge Pickup: Dynamix J Bridge Pickup Hardware Finish: Chrome Strings: .045, .065, .085, .105 -
I was looking for something like this. I couldn't find anything so went for a Fender Rumble and a portable power system. It works much better than a battery powered combo. I use it with the 25w Rumble for both electric and double bass. The combo power output with determine how long the power lasts. It's longer than you think.

The sh** show that is Royal mail / ParcelForce
probonopublico replied to leschirons's topic in General Discussion
I would not touch ParcelFarce with the longest stick in the country. I've entrusted them with two basses and in both cases they failed. On the first occasion the driver said they had attempted delivery but no on was in. They had been in all day. The purchaser contacted the driver who admitted he had been nowhere near and had to put attempted for their IT systems. Second occasion they damaged the bass. I tried to claim but I needed to prove how much I'd purchased it for. Difficult as this was in 1979. Terrible company. Very very difficult to get in touch with them. -
Jesse Welles, on Monday. Outstanding. Bass player was well old school. Fender Coronado and a fender valve and what looked like. 2 x 15. Well worth the trip.

Perhaps a Sandberg but not a Rick 4030

I acquired a Talman30 a couple of weeks ago and giggled with it last week. I really enjoyed the experience, a good range of sounds off the PJ set up, the neck was nice and the short scale was fun. Add to that a price of £212 so can't go wrong. I may be tempted to get a more expensive shorty but if I enjoy this one why bother. I was looking at a Sire MM U5 but the talman was so cheap. A lot of bass for your money.

@Japhet You were right. Great bass for £212. Well worth the telling off for leaving wife outside of Gear4Music for 40 minutes
-
Even as a Rick fan boy I wouldn't touch one of these.

Just seen this thread as I'm in the market for a short scale bass. I agree with @Obrienp. They could have gone a step further and added an active circuit.

Many thanks to everyone for your comments and advice. All of it duly noted and I'm meeting my friend at Birmingham Guitar Guitar next month. I'll keep you posted on what he decides on this thread. Also if I give in and end up with a Talman. Evidence may be provided.

I might have to get one of them myself
