  1. Yes, all good thanks, Gareth! πŸ™πŸ˜Š
  2. Great looking cabs, Gareth... Never heard of the FMC brand before, but if you're a fan of them, then they must good! The 1210 in particular looks like a great one cab solution... Very sorry to hear about the impending redundancy btw. Best wishes with whatever your next steps are job wise and GLWTS.. πŸ™πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘
  3. Fantastic basses, these, and going back a decade or so, DJ5s were the Super Jazz 5 of choice on this forum... I bought one almost exactly the same as this from @P-T-P in 2007 or 2008, and I still regret selling it, which I stupidly did a few years later. 🀦 The necks on these is about the best you can get on a 5 string at this price point, and so is the clarity of the B string - excellent as I recall. Plus, these basses have a beautifully even tone across all of the five strings. And, what's more, these sound like Jazz Bass should - not a super modern hi-fi tone; more of a proper, natural, woody, jazz bass guitar tone!! These days, I hardly use my 5 string basses (and I still have 2), otherwise I would be very, very tempted by this, especially at this price. GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  4. Happy Saturday, Folks! Another BUMP for this fine example of Mesa bass amp engineering - it really is a class act! You won't find many Class A/B amps that only weigh 25 lbs with this much clean power, clear headroom and tonal punch! Trades Happy to entertain trade offers now by the way ; studio gear, interesting fx pedals, 6-string electro-acoustics, all valve amps, etc, etc. Cheers, Nik
  5. Stunning @jay-syncro! GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  6. Gorgeous looking bass! At the risk of derailing your thread, I'd say if it were fretless, it could be considered very 'Beedsteresque' (if such a word existed @Beedster? 😁) Anyway, back on topic, it's a seriously cool looking P Bass and best of luck with the sale! πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  7. Happy Saturday, Folks! Somehow, I've remembered to give this lovely Maya bass a BUMP this morning as it really does need to find a new home where it can be played and appreciated. Trades I've had a rethink on this so, could now be tempted by a nice electro-acoustic 6-string, or an all valve head maybe, interesting pedals, studio gear... Who knows? Whatever - I'm open to having conversations with anyone who might have any interesting trade offers. Cheers, Nik
  8. That's a great price for a super-jazz of this quality! And having had an Xotic 5 previously (though not this exact model), I can totally agree with your comments @Stephen Houghton about how good these basses really are... What's more, I've had the pleasure of playing this one and it's a real beauty! Sounds brilliant and is effortless to play. GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  9. That's a very cool looking 4003, @Clarky! Good price too... GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  10. Beautiful looking bass, Brian! That really is a fabulous, dark rosewood fretboard too... GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ˜Š
  11. Very sad news.... 😞 RIP Sam.
  12. Love this story @TheGreek! Thanks for sharing it.... πŸ™
  13. Happy Bank Holiday Friday, Folks! Figured I'd better give this beautiful and seemingly, quite unique, bass a BUMP, as it needs to find a new home. Cheers, Nik
  14. Happy Bank Holiday Friday, Folks! Figured I'd better give this amp a BUMP, as it needs to find a new home. Cheers, Nik
  15. Thanks for your expertise and insights as ever @Bassassin.. πŸ™ Glad to hear you think it's a mid-late 70s example, and it is as you say, a thing of beauty! Who would've thought those little spanners are so rare.. πŸ€”πŸ€·πŸ˜
  16. Thanks Chris, I remember the 212 combo you had; it looked like a serious piece of kit! Wasn't it the M3, as opposed to the M6 ?
  17. Sounds very familiar... πŸ€” .. It's like having Trump's tariff wars imposed mercilessly, and without warning, on a few simple musician folks getting on with their day to day business of bass guitar trading... Shocking! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜ On a more serious note, I really like the tone of the Danelectro basses too, though I've never owned one.
  18. Only 4, Chris? 🀣 Seriously, thanks for pointing that out. πŸ‘πŸ˜Š This bass does have a lovely tone, despite my rather lame efforts at playing it..
  19. It's 3.9k, or 8.6 lbs in old money. And just to say, that was done using the old-fashioned method of weighing myself on the scales first, then weighing myself with the bass.
  20. πŸ˜‚ I'm very happy to talk about the M6 Andy... I just can't bring any more basses into Silverfoxnik Towers, otherwise I will end up sounding like a cross between Aled Jones and Jimmy Somerville, circa 1982/3 (if you catch my drift).. πŸ˜¬πŸ˜πŸ˜‚ Nice looking bass btw...πŸ‘
