    Thought this seemed a bit of a bargain. The seller also has another stingray and a jazz for sale. 


    As per his description I messaged with an enquiry and was told it had sold. 
    it’s still listed so not sure what the point is here. I guess it’s some sort of scam but wonder how it works.

    There should be one in fairly soon at Bass Direct, they seem to be punting them out as fast as they get them in.

    Looks like Peach have one in stock again as I write this. Even if it goes, it’s worth getting in touch with them to see when they expect more. The price is very competitive!

  3. So around the time of the last message in this thread I contacted Peach to see if they had more stock due. As I mentioned earlier every other stockist was more expensive and no-one seemed to have any stock anyway. Peach replied to say they did, in a week or so, and would let me know when they were in. I was away last week when they contacted me so couldn’t get to them until Friday. On Wednesday the site showed 3 in stock (at £597). By Thursday the green one went. On Friday morning, just before I boarded my flight, there  was only one left. I landed at lunchtime and checked and the last one had gone. Still I thought I would go anyway as I had an appointment and thought at least id get to try one. When I arrived all was well. The chap with whom I had been communicating had actually put on order in to stop it being sold! Tried the bass and loved it so I’m now the delighted owner of one of these - at a great price - thanks to some great service from Peach guitars.

  4. Got a gig in Ipswich on Saturday at the Briarbank. 
     

    Praying that Ipswich Town get promoted or it could get messy. 
     

    Although I guess it will get messy if they do go up 😂

  5. I too enjoyed it but was slightly miffed that it wasn’t quite what the trailers portrayed which seemed more about the birth of the British ska scene. 
     

    Enjoyed the acting though. Especially Lady Mary Crawley as the alcoholic mum with the voice of an angel!

    It's funny how a small thing like a non curved body where your forearm meets it (I tend to play quite far forward - pluckng in front of the neck pickup) can become an issue. Well, it does for me anyway, but perhaps I'm overly fussy. 

     

    Personally, I find this can make playing uncomfortable. Which is a shame, as surely it would cost next to nothng to round it off. If be tempted to sand it down a bit myself but it'd look a mess.

    This is one of the things that worries me. I like the look of it and the spec etc and the reviews are all pretty good but can't get hold of one locally to try. Peach can order one but it's a 20% non-returnable deposit for an order. 

  7. I had my eye on one of these from Peach guitars. They had 2 in stock but they both apparently sold today. Priced at £597 I’m not really surprised. Oh well, need to wait until they start appearing second hand. 
     

    Truth is I’d probably realise yet again the 5 strings are not for me and put it up for sale within a couple of months 😂

     

    Will look forward to the Dood’s review to see what I missed.

    Anyone using the MarkBass LM iv ? 

    I’m using an LM3 and love it! Up till now with a 4 ohm 2x10 traveller cab but just acquired a 4x10 standard cab from a basschatter which moves significantly more air! I’m just down the road from you if you wanted to try it. Second hand they’re around £350 I think.

  9. Shame that this is sitting gathering dust. It's a great bass, with the piezo providing interesting tonal options, but just not for me ergonomically. They're hard to get hold of in the UK - I think the only stockist is the bass centre and they're currently over £900. This one is pretty mint so I'm reluctant to drop the price but feel free to send an offer - you might catch me in a good mood!

     

    If anyone fancies trying something different and has a trade in mind then feel free to message. I'm not precious about a straight swap a little bit of cash either way. As well as basses, interested in light 4 x 10 cabs.
