  1. 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!
  2. Bought this new in 1988. A friend at work was being wooed by a bloke who had a music shop and she suggested that if he did a deal for a friend of hers she might just see him again. Think I paid £515 against the RRP of £795. Can’t see myself ever parting with it
  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!
  6. 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.
  8. 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. Boss Waza air for bass. Simples!
  10. Hmmm. Could this be the 5 string that I actually get on with? Do I really need another bass? Why is it so damned pretty? Why did I sell my Corvette $$ for peanuts? Why do I think I need a five string when I keep buying them and selling on after realising I don't get on with them? So many questions but few answers. Absolutely stunning Bass Heathy!
  11. The last band I was in broke up finally and very acrimoniously (drummer in the red corner and singer in the blue) at the start of my wedding anniversary party and refused to play. Thanks!
  12. 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.
  13. Been using them since I got an Acg from Frank Blank of this parish that had them fitted. Amazing strings and they do send offers from time to time.
  14. Thanks to a connection with a very old friend of his I met him briefly on Saturday. What a nice, down to earth bloke. A real gent. Me in my wishful thinking pose!
  15. Something weird happened with the pics. Should be back now. open to reasonable offers and trades
  16. You’re welcome to borrow the ns radius wav 4 that I’m advertising in the for sale section. It’s just sitting there at the mo I’m on the edge of North Essex.
  17. Bit leery and dear for an s3000! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/364589871202?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=zj_pbkgkrvy&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=YkRg0-LaRHe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  18. Ocean colour scene next week in Norwich
  19. Now £500 in a crazy, Post Black Friday Sale! Or let me know what you got to trade!
  20. For the heavy basses this: KLIQ Music Gear AirCell Guitar Strap for Bass & Electric Guitar with 3" Wide Neoprene Pad and Adjustable Length. Super comfortable. https://www.kliqmusicgear.com/collections/guitar-straps/products/aircell-guitar-strap-for-bass-electric-guitar-adjustable-black-short
  21. I’ve been wearing lenses most of the time for about 30 years. Now in my 50s have moved to mono vision which is where I have one weaker for reading like @doomed says above. So have always worn them for gigs with no problems.
  22. Papa was a rolling stone. There’s a clip of Marcus Miller doing a cover. He plays the first two notes and the audience knows what it is!
  23. Pray by Take That “all I do is shine his face” instead of all I do each night is pray
