Ah, that'd do it!  I've emailed the store, I was advised it was out of stock shortly after my purchase and it wold be at least 6 weeks to fulfill the order, then 3 weeks later it arrives, I wonder if it was rushed out of the Sadowsky warehouse to fulfill outstanding deliveries and the board was missed out?  Thanks for your help all, I know it was best to ask here first😁

Came from here:

Ah, snapped the wrong side of the paper😣 not just a 3am thing then...

Right, before I email Sadowsky themselves I thought I'd tap into the vast knowledge here

I'm looking to install this but the guide doesn;t seem to match what I'm looking at, it says to attach the pickups to the pan-pot via the solderless connections but I'm not seeing any connections on the pan-pot!  Also, there are 2 sets of connections, one off the VTC pot and one off the Bass/treble pot, in the diagram they go to an unlabelled box, I don't seem to have that box, am I missing something?  Have a bought the wrong thing to drop in as a complete replacement plate? (wouldn;t be the first time, this was a can;t sleep 3am purchase)

Right, I've pulled the trigger on a Limelight jazz so I need to get some cash in, will entertain part trades on this now, ideally I need GBP500 along with whatever you offer however, if what you offer tickles me the right way (😮) I can be a bit flexible

Can't resist that bargain, I'll take this.  PMing

Ooooh, that sound like good news, my electrical skills are limited but not non-existant so I'm happy to try and fix it, just need to find a schematic, I'll have a hunt this evening when I'm not working

Cheers

So I think I've fried my SPB1, I was going to give it one more try before putitng it up for sale, plugged it in and there was a wisp of smoke and a burnig smell,  (I REALLY must label my power cables...)

Left it alone for a while and tested again, nothing with a battery and when it's plugged in the correct power cable the low battery light comes on but  nothing else.

I'm not the original owner and it's out of warranty anyway, now given that I was probably going to be selling it anyway I don't want to to sending it back to Sadowsky for a potentially expensive repair  (if that is even posible) + shipping costs 2 ways ,  is there anyone here on BC that would be willing to take a look at it or are there any shops/individuals you would recomend for an appraisal/less expensive repair?

Cracking bass, if I didn't already have its twin I'd be seriously tempted😁

Bought an Owen bass bomb driver pedal from Mike, awesome pedal and it arrived VERY quickly. Couldn't ask for a better experience😁

That's almost an agreed contract right there...!! :-) 😉

Just one small lotto related clause to fulfill and I think it's legally binding😁

Well the kitchen scales are jumping around the mid 4.7kg mark so call it 4.8kg, bit lighter than the Gibson😁

Hi Lou,

Always the way when you see something that is clearly calling you!  I think the market is probably slower than usual so maybe she'll be waiting for for when you win the Euromillions on Friday!  Alternatively, if I get the jackpot I'll send her to you for free😁  Fingers crossed for one of us ...

Hi Mike,  if this is still available I'll take it as part of my eternal search for 'that' sound😁

Hi Ellis, thanks for the detail, very helpful. If I hadn't ramped up the collection she'd be staying with me but I seem to be favouring my old Yamahas at the moment and I've still just got the 2 hands!🤣

Did you go for the USA jazz you were contemplating?

Starting to thin the herd so up for grabs is this beautiful Shuker RD Artist style beasty

I'm not the original owner so details (body wood/neck etc) are sparse I'm afraid but I can try and answer any Qs

Duncan pups, an Aguilar OBP-2 pre and Hipshot USA pegs

Stunning bound neck with block markings, 40mm at the nut, all in good condition, slight yellowish discolouration on the top of the body, a few little nicks around the backplate a small chip on the top of the head.

Lovely player but for some reason I can't quite put my finger on I pick up others first, I think I just don;t get on with the neck profile but honestly cannot say why! 

Comes with a Thomman thunderbird soft case

Looking for a straight sale really so GBP850.00  GBP 750 GBP 700 collected or can deliver within reasonable range/meet up

Aww what the hell, I'm always on the lookout for interesting pedals to try, I'll take it. Are you happy with Paypal?  If so ping me your address and I'll pay up😁

Damn, no worries

Hi Ed, 

Was going to buy this but didn't get to you before you ebayed and got a bid. I'll take it, ping me your PayPal address😁

This raffle type 'giveaway' keeps popping up on my Facebook feed, guess that means i'm spending a lot of time looking at bass sites but it has piqued my interest, anyone have experience of this Bassgears site? Looks like it represents a number of European luthiers as well as stocking various bits and pieces and, if it's leggit it's a nice idea.

Well found Hooky, that sure looks like it

Outstanding, did a part ex for a Yammy Trb, turned up well packed within 2 days, very, VERY happy. 

Yeah, I was struggling to arrive at Yamaha. 

Saw it on gum tree or something similar a while back. Not really tempted, just curious😁

The old Yammy or Ibanez tag makes me interested but I just can't identify the beast, any ideas?

Damn it, don't you know how hard I'm trying to resist this😁  I'm going to have to shift something to makes space (apparently I have too many already!) but if this hasn't gone by then...
