    It wouldn’t be the same price if it did though. You never know the new pickups might make it a much better bass. I’d love one in this kind of condition.

    I never really used to look at maple fingerboards, I’ve always gone for rosewood, but I’m quite liking them now , I think I need one 😁

    I still think Ampeg is my favourite amp brand

    Same here, after many many amps it’s the one I’ve settled on, can’t see me using anything else in the future

    Much louder or a bit louder ? 

     the pf50 through the same cab the big baby ll can go fairly loud but I’d say the v4 is much louder, it has a different sound though, a bit hard to explain, the eq works really well and you can get a nice warm tone, great with a precision

    All good. I’ve bought a few bits from them and they’ve always been more than excellent. Perhaps they have fixed this issue. I just wanted to share my experience as it’s a good price for a really lovely bass.

    I’ve bought from them before too and all was good and nice people, they do get the occasional vintage bass or two in 

  5. If anyone is a fan of Sean this is a definite must to watch, he’s the only non reggae bassist I follow, it’s fairly long but well worth the time, I’m not familiar with the tracks but he breaks down how he played the basslines and the chord structures , such great knowledge

    Bass now handed over and I must admit I’m very relieved to have got it to its destination safely! 

    Cool, be interesting to see what they have to say and how much it goes up for

    This part of the neck was particularly battered beforehand and I now just marvel at how it looks, and feels.

    Looks like you got a nice low action there too

    These are short scale, I doubt they'll be long enough as the Ball to taper length is 32.25” (820mm).

    Ah thanks, i was just looking on labella site for the lengths 

  9. Hi Tom, I only use flats and have never had a string snap, I think the combination as above of cutting down long scale and the smaller peg is the answer, maybe try putting out a wanted ad for the shorter strings and measure to the silks so you know your ok , short scale flats do come up now and again, all mine are long or you could have had some
