  1. Hi Lurks! Is this still available please mate? Gaz
  2. Nice one Paul, thanks mate! Yeah, we've tried a bunch of social media avenues but finally, after all that, an old bass playing friend of ours who ended up concentrating on his studio, has come out of the woodwork and offered to cover the gigs so looks like it's sorted! Thanks for your message though mate! Always much appreciated! 👍
  3. Ok mate, thanks for getting back to me! I'll let you know. They're trying to get someone to cover the three weekends for logistic and financial reasons but that could change! Will keep you informed!👍
  4. Hi Ratman! Please check my post for a bassist needed when you get a mo! Cheers mate!
  5. Hello again! Looking for a bass player for three weekends, 23,24,30,31st August and 6/7 September. £125 per gig, general covers band based in Leicester. Would ideally require someone to meet the guys in Market Bosworth and travel with them to the gigs in, Poole and Weymouth, Bridlington area 2 nights and Great Yarmouth 2 nights. Let me know how you're fixed! Cheers!
  6. Hi mate! Would you be free this weekend, Friday and Saturday night in Weymouth area? Covers band, bit of everything, slap bass would help. £125 a gig plus fuel. Trying to find a bass player for a mate who has been let down! Cheers!

  10. Exactly bassfan! I had an Ibanez Studio bass stolen that was an absolute favourite of mine. It was unique in the fact that the guy who had it before me changed the headstock to look like that of a Jaydee Supernatural! It was lovely and he did a great job on it! If anyone saw that it would be instantly recognisable! Also my first 6 string, a red Ibanez Soundgear got taken from a rehearsal room. Anyway, hope the mods could perhaps think about it?
  11. I was just wondering whether it would be good to have a stolen gear category, having been the victim of a couple of thefts over the years? As most stuff will probably end up on eBay, second hand shop, or similar perhaps it would be cool to be able to upload photos of what's gone missing here? Any thoughts?
  12. Hello mate! Long shot here but a friend of mine who I occassionally work with is looking for a bass player for this weekend, friday and saturday in cornwall. It's only £125 a gig but at least it doesn't involve you travelling too far! It's basically pop/rock stuff from Wham! to Oasis with everything in between! Please let me kow ASAP if you might be free! Thanks bro!
  13. Gunther! Please check your e mail when you get a moment! 👍
  14. They are great basses, no doubt about that! I need to sell a handful of mine as I want to see if I can get enough for a Wal bass, or two! 😄
  15. Ok mate, no worries, I'll email you privately! Bear with me though as I'm on holiday at the moment so that's why it's taking me a bit longer to reply! Sounds like a done deal though! 👍
  16. Hello mate! Yes, it's still available. The only problem is that it doesn't have a hard case so sending via courier would be difficult. The option is for me to buy one and find a courier then send it to you? I could probably find a relatively good hard case on eBay or some second hand shop for perhaps somewhere around £70 or so, then courier for about £40. They are rough estimates so could go either way! Let me know your thoughts!👍
  17. That better? People don't seem to like capitals on this website but I comply m'lud..
  18. Thanks visog for the info. Should shed some light for those who might be interested. P.S. Stopped shouting now 😉
  19. Was for sale this wonderful Nightingale bass guitar. Built by Neil Macdonald and perhaps Bernie Goodfellow( although not quite sure as there is very little info on the web) I believe it to be built around 91 or 92 but again I'm going on what I've been told from the previous owner who was also a little vague! Hear how she sounds here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_19GtoGDuG0 It's a beautiful instrument, well set up and easy to play. Very similar in shape to Bernie's Rumour bass. I've been told that his circuitry for the Rumour could be slotted into this but it would be worth a consultation with him to be sure. I had the original circuit board taken out as it was a bit temperamental (and very complicated). So now it's just two Kent Armstrong pickups with volume and tone for each one.Snakewood fretboard. It's got a few battle scars, light scratches and dings, and missing a strap pin( see photo) Nothing that affects playability. It's a great bass and if someone put a little work into it she'd be an incredible addition to any collection. They are obviously quite rare. Feel free to ask any questions but I might not be able to answer as my knowledge of it is very weak! Welcome to come and try of course. Based in Leicester. Doesn't have a case so would have to be local collection I'm afraid. Thanks for looking!
  20. Hi again! Another bass for sale! I acquired this monster bass a few months back but it's yet another one that I'm just not using enough so thought it would be better off with someone else! It's a great bass, really powerful and obviously Fender Jazz inspired. It definitely has it's own character though. They seem to be quite rare forsome reason. Nice honky mids on the back pickup for Jaco-esque tones to meaty slap tones with both pickups and Precision like front pickup tones. Had a bit of a nasty hit on the top of the bass body from a previous owner which hopefully you can see from the pics, but other than that it just has the usual slight finger nail marks. It's in a pretty good overall condition though. Check the photos as they should give you a pretty good idea of the condition. Looking for somewhere around the £600 mark but open to offers! Check out the info here:- http://www.bladeguitars.com/basses/b2-series/b25/ Bass will be available for local pickup in Leicester so drop me a message if you'd like to try/buy! Thanks for checking it out!
  21. Beautiful Status S2 classic 5 string bass for sale! Check out how she sounds here :- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmX6wjD5NKk Bought this bass a couple of years back and it's been superb! Plays beautifully and is in immaculate condition. No dings or scratches. Built in July 1998. Pickup configuration here:- http://www.status-graphite.com/status/frames/index_home.html More info on the Status website here:- http://www.status-graphite.com/status/frames/index_home.html It's set up perfectly, nice low action, no buzzes or dead spots,it really is a joy to play. Only reason for selling is that I've got too many basses and this one doesn't get the use it deserves. Will include a new set of Hotwire strings and an old soft case if you need it. Please note that this is collection only as it has no hard case. Based in Leicester. You're welcome to come and try her out but please give me a few days notice to arrange something. I'll try my best to answer any questions you may have but most of the info will be on the Status website. Thanks for looking!
