  1. Last bump before E-Bay. Price will be increased on the Bay to swallow up the outrageous charges they make - price remains £1400 for Basschatters.
  2. Decided to stick on the Bay if not gone by next Tuesday. More pics available if interested.
  3. Apologies, Couldn't get Camera to work last night. New one bought so pics on tonight if anyones interested.
  4. Much obliged Clarky, am at work I can just about access Bass Chat without the IT police on to me! Pics later tonight as soon as I get home.
  5. Apologies, not sure why I put the word Pentabuzz in the title. Now removed.
  6. [attachment=109009:pedulla005.jpg] Orangey one in the middle! (Hope Geert doesn't mind me hijacking his pic!) Hi All, After much, much soul searching and with my growing family committments I can no longer justify such a large expensive Bass collection. Not to mention I play a 6 string more these day's. So to start with one of my wonderful fretlesses has to go. Probably the best one I have played with a tone to die for, if you want Mwwhha it doesn't get better than the Pedulla Buzz. Pictures to follow tonight but you can see and hear her on you tube by typing in Pedulla Buzz, (You tube user is Wombatter first clip on there) in the clip she is being played by her former owner (also a basschat member) who posted pics of her in the porn section so you can also look there until I post tonight. She is in great condition and all working beautifully, she also has the original hardcase. High end American bass with brass nut/Bridge and tuners more sustain I have yet to find! She is finished in what I believe Pedulla called vintage cherry burst. [i]Not looking at trades unless you have an immaculate Rickenbacker 330 or 360 or a mint Epiphone Casino.[/i] Cash wise I am looking for [s][b]£1,400[/b][/s] £1,300 which would include fully insured delivery within the UK. No overseas bids please as frankly it just adds to my worries with couriers.
  7. These babes rival Wal for me, and have a as new price to match them, at this price this is a steal!!!!!
  8. Oh Bollock$.... Too many of our brothers going now.... The Ox, Mick Karn, and now the Duck.... God having problems with his rhythm section!? Sleep well Mr Dunn.....
  9. Mmm few potential dodgy comments, selling for a friend, I'll check the pots for crackles, the e string sounds like it has lost some life.... Be careful, reminds me of a Jazz I bought of E-bay and when it arrived and had problems it was down to his 'friend'
  10. I have the fretless, and will not let her go! Mmmm might be good to have a fretted twin..... Mmmm.
  11. As a fellow Buzz owner - Don't do it!! It's the best Fretless I have played!! Damn rare in the UK too!
  12. Lets have a poll! Who would buy a calendar!?
  13. Just taken ownership of a fellow basschatters Pedulla Pentabuzz, had a play at the weekend in between watching Englands Cricket batting collapse and Arsenal making a meal of beating Aston Villa, but what a bass, having owned fretless Ray's a Wal and a US Jazz I was fairly open minded but the Mwwhaa factor put them all into the shade. You only have to touch the fingerboard to start her purring the tones available are fantastic, she even sounds good as an old slapper. Def the best fretless I have owned and so hard to come by in the UK. If your after the ultimate in fretless and wanting a great Mwwhha from your fretless go no further. Steve.
  14. I recently traded my Wal Custom for Geerts Pedulla Pentabuzz. He has restored my faith in trading with a flawless friendly trade. A top guy and very honorable. When I am next in Belgium it's beer time! Cheers Geert! It was a pleasure!!!
  15. Played a gig in 1987 at a cricket Club in Knebworth Hertfordshire in the audience was Mark Hollis from Talk Talk who was a nice bloke and very unlike a 'pop star' Talk Talk were pretty big at the time. His advice to us was just stick at it and if you wanted fame just copy whatever is popular for your first album as that's what we did! 1989, Golf club Welwyn Garden City, Kim Wilde, her father Marty and her brother Ricky although to be fair growing up in WGC you used to see them around quite a bit she was always very friendly and one fo my funniest moments was seeing a friend try to chat her up in a night club in WGC only to have his tie fall in his pint much to her amusement but more so ours!
  16. For many years I have toyed with having another crack at trying the dark side of the 6 string variety. A guy at work is selling my dream semi acoustic a Rickenbacker 360/6 He let me borrow it over the weekend and frankly it was awsome. He wants £950 for it but this may be a dream too far, now I have in the past paid twice that for a Bass but I am fair player after 25 years on the 4 string, but a guitar no more than a slightly advanced beginner (I can play 4 chords) so tempted..... Must resist.... What do you think?

    Mmm interested, still available?
  18. Geert, The book is well worth a read. It's a little sad that Mick uses so few pages on his Bass playing and instruments but his whole attitude to playing is so refreshing. People ask me about strings and I always reply I use whatever is lying around or whatever I get free. Also funny is his story of people wanting a 'Mick Karn' fretless Wal but I'll leave that for future readers...
  19. Read the book a while ago, and it did leave a bitter taste but I am sure Mick had his faults. You might also argue Sylvian was really the only one who continued to have success after Japan Split, I am pretty sure he wrote all of his solo stuff. Richard Barbieri did say that Sylvian wrote 90% of Japan's music but seemed to take nearer 100% of the royalties. I guess if they didn't like it they could have just walked away. We have all been in bands it happens all the time, some peole just put up with it for a 'Quiet Life' sorry couldn't resist. Mick was a genius as far as I am concerned. Try playing Art of Parties or swing...
