This is a must listen to for any Matumbi fans like me

Cream for me

If it was me I wouldn’t want a bass from him now, I’d just want my money back and move on to an alternative builder , if there’s something wrong with it you’re back to square one, I’d buy another bass

Thanks for this stew, strangely as soon as I clicked on it I thought it sounded like Robbie Shakespeare, and it is sly and Robbie , great one and I’ll look further into it

Thanks UD, I don’t think I’ve heard that before, here’s another man next door

I have heard of Letts but never played one, the bit I don’t get is the reply to Eddie, if I’ve got it right ,he knows he still owes a bass or money, how can you carry on knowing this, if I owed £5 or 5k I would do everything to pay that off, even if it means borrowing from family or friends, it would be on my conscience , he needs to sort this

So sorry to hear this NFF, deepest condolences, Tony

Wow, thanks Rich, more than double what the estimate was, I was expecting around 20k

Welcome JJ

Same here 😁

Great demos, cheers soulstar

Thanks I’ll check them demos out, this one drew my attention, and the silks are different from all my labella’s

Think it’s 25% goes to charity

See what lot 102 goes for

Welcome va

Has anyone tried the labella Olinto flats, I’ve watched a few videos and they seem quite nice , I’m normally 40-100 ish but wouldn’t mind trying them

I remember a friend of mine had that album when I was at school, which I think I’ve still got somewhere, the one that I used to like was The Model

I know all these tracks and it’s good to hear them like this, the Bassline on Linval Thompson stop loving is just great

Sorry to hear this, thanks for sharing Rumblebass

I’d agree it’s a great place and very well moderated, I’ve met lots of good people here mainly when I’m buying stuff, I live abroad part of the year but I’m still on here every day and sometimes all day , I don’t always post unless I can add or help out in any way, as @Oopsdabassistsays “If ya can't say something nice......" that sort of thing”, I’ve always got answers to whatever I’ve asked, even the stupid questions 😁, and the DOI always brings a smile to my face, top people there , in all I’d be quite lost without basschat

Great one ud, sly and Robbie at their best

Looks in very good condition for the year , as above some of the mid to late 70s ones can be pretty heavy so you might ask about the weight, I’d try to get the price down too if you’re thinking of getting it, good luck

Another one of my favourites from Naoto

Are they new vin, they might just have some factory oil on them, I’d give them a good wipe down, I wouldn’t put anything on my fingers myself

I don’t take any notice of the weight myself and I don’t mind heavy basses, strangely I don’t really like ones that are too light, but if you’ve had a back problem then standing with it might be uncomfortable after a while, cool bass though
