  1. Quick question for @prowlaand @NancyJohnson... Is there going to be a luthier /guitar tech there on Sunday?
  2. Good question and sorry for not making that clearer earlier... @Beedster is in Whitstable I believe. I think the idea is about finding a very temporary home for the combo that Chris could collect from, that's a closer to where he lives than Bedfordshire, which is where I'm based. Having said all of that, I realise it's quite an ask, so please don't worry if it's not possible for you.
  3. Thanks @bass_dinger, Was just asking as I'm trying to coordinate delivery of a Mesa Boogie Walkabout Combo to Chris, aka @Beedsterbut he's unable to attend on Sunday. So he and I were just wondering whether anyone more local to him than me (I live in Bedfordshire) might be able to help? A sort of Basschat 'relay service' as it were... ๐Ÿ˜ @Wombat has kindly offered to help already, but in case that might not pan out as hoped, then it'd be great for Chris to have other options...?
  4. Thanks @Wombat Probably best to bring @Beedsterinto this conversation to see how we can take it forwards... But sincere ๐Ÿ™ for offering to help with this! Chris - what are your thoughts??
  5. Cheers Mick, More akin to a lifelong 'criminal record' or 'wall of shame' tbh, but thank you... ๐Ÿ˜
  6. Just like my very recent transaction with Mick too. As evidenced by the very quick and safe arrival of the Dennis Dunaway book today that I purchased just a few days ago. Thanks Mick - I'm looking forward to a good read! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š

  8. Hi Folks, Is anyone travelling to Sunday's Bash from the Kent area??
  9. Yes, all good thanks, Gareth! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜Š
  10. Thursday morning BUMP for this fantastic amp! Will be taking it to the South East Bass Bash on Sunday if anyone there would like to hear it in action...

  12. Had the pleasure of meeting @sambecker1, aka Sam, this afternoon and can only endorse what Richard has said above about buying and selling with Sam with absolute confidence! Sam bought the Tokai Hardpuncher I was selling and I've got to say, his comms throughout everything this week have been great. What's more, he's super friendly, easy to deal with and is clearly a very talented bass player /musician. In short, he's a great addition to the Basschat community! Thanks Sam, it was really good to meet you and I hope you enjoy the bass! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š Cheers Nik
  13. Hi Folks, Do to ongoing, internal commentary on the interior spatial constraints we have here at Silverfoxnik Towers, I really would like to move this on now.. So here's a Saturday morning BUMP for this fantastic, lightweight Greenboy fEARful 15/6 cab, which sounds glorious - especially when used with my Mesa Carbine head that's also for sale here. If anyone's interested in both the amp and the cab, then I'm sure a deal could be done on the price for both. Thanks for looking and have a good weekend! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š
  14. Hi Folks, As already said, I really would like to move this on now, so here's a Saturday morning BUMP for this beautifully designed and engineered Mesa Carbine, which sounds glorious - especially with my Greenboy fEARful 15/6 cab that's also for sale here. If anyone's interested in both the amp and the cab, then I'm sure a deal could be done on the price for both. Thanks for looking and have a good weekend! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š
  15. Despite lots and lots of PMs, it's still available, so here's a Saturday morning BUMP for this beauty... Have a good weekend, Folks! ๐Ÿ˜Š
  16. What a beautiful piece of kit this is... I seem to remember that @Chimikehad one of these back in the day, and he brought it to a mini West Sussex Bash that we had about 12 or 13 years ago and it sounded absolutely immense!! A sound that literally terraformed the inside of your ears in new and fabulous ways... If I was curating a Museum dedicated to iconic Bass gear, this would be proudly sat on a special plinth as you walked into the 'Best of British' wing... GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š
  17. In my experience, songwriting partnerships work when the people involved bring different skills, experience, musical talents and personalities to the project. And another important factor is that there's got to mutual respect and trust too, just like in any relationship, otherwise it won't work or last.. Isn't there's a semi-serious and funny (if it weren't so true) quote or saying out there somewhere about it 'being impossible to be a musician and an adult at the same time'...?? So when it comes to trying to find a songwriting partner you can work with, you've got to hope they're similar to you in terms of that emotional maturity /sensibility.. After all, it's quite a personal thing when you're writing music and words to share with the rest of the world!
  18. Hi Folks, Just had the pleasure of selling a Maya Fretless to Brian, who is a pleasure to deal with and without doubt, one of Basschat's finest! Everything was very straightforward forward with this transaction, as is always the case with Brian, including great comms, no hassle couriers, and fast payment. Highly, highly recommended! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘Œ Thanks again Brian - I hope you enjoy the bass and here's to the next one. ๐Ÿ˜ Best wishes, Nik
  19. Reality. Some of the best songs ever written have come from songwriting partnerships.
  20. That stamp is definitely not there on my bass.... See pictures on previous page.
  21. Hi @soulstar89 These Tokais have quite chunky necks. This is a quote from a Tokai forum that i found: "They are solid, accurate, and well built P bass copies with old school thick necks and 7.25 radius." A Google search just now said this: The Tokai PB80 bass neck profile is described as a "vintage U profile" or a "deeper profile," which is characteristic of a 1950s-style Precision Bass. It is a maple neck that is on the larger side, though many players find it comfortable to play. The neck is also noted as being "slight cambered". Nut width is. 43mm according to the same Google search. Does that help? I've not taken the neck off to look at what's stamped on there bit could do if absolutely necessary... And yes, the bridge has definitely been modded.
  22. I remember that one, Chris... It was a beauty! 2007 I think that was... ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
