    In fact, he appears to have two of them..........

    Lovely performance and especially lovely basswork 👍
  3. Beedster
    Who did you speak to?
  4. Beedster
    Can I take that 👍
  5. Beedster
    After all the shit of the last few years - not just Eurovision but everything - could this be the turning point......?

    Thanks Martin, congrats on the gig, must admit I've never seen anyone gigging one of these, given how few of them are out there I imagine it's quite a rare sighting 👍
  7. Beedster
    Given SKB are bombproof would you post Pete, if so I’d defo take it?
  8. Beedster
    Really enjoyed that 👍
  9. Beedster
    Trades......?
  10. Beedster
    Sadly and with apologies to the BCer concerned I wasn't able to go ahead with the trade deal on this so it remains available. I think I might pop it up to one of the midlands shops on consignment sale soon as it's the location/collection/delivery thing that seems to make this a bit of a challenge to sell, certainly from the wilds of East Kent 👍

    I have a box as well as a hard case that will protect it during transit (although won't be much use for anything else), so can courier this 👍
  12. Beedster
    I understand from people who know such things that given the levels of incompetence and laziness in most large organisations, when things like this happen no matter how deliberate it might seem, there’s 99.9% chance it’s a cockup, 0.1% chance it was planned 👍

    Ashdown are a very special manufacturer and Dave is an outstanding guy 👍

    And now back in ‘the system’ to protect the guilty under the ‘innocent error’ defence.
  15. Beedster
    Although it might be there's a process that as an auctioneer has to be followed I guess?
  16. Beedster
    Probably depends on who the person/company you got it from actually is, if it's Parcelforce then perhaps justified as he could argue it was sent to him in error by them and that the owner needs to resolve this with them who he'd paid to deliver it? But why would you not return calls or talk to Police. At present it all smells a bit wrong doesn't it........
  17. Beedster
    This is all quite bizarre, sounds to me like the auction house and the 'consignee' might have something of a special relationship.......?
  18. Beedster
    I'd assumed that it's a neck-thru bass but in case not - and the Status website suggests it's not also - surely the best bet is a new neck, won't cost a whole not more than a refret and far lower risk?
  19. Beedster
    LOL, if it wasn't for @agedhorse and @Bill Fitzmaurice I'd probably only ever visit the basses for sale forums
  20. Beedster
    I plug in my 600w Mesa head and 1516 cab at home, at rehearsals, and on stage. If I want more volume I turn it up, if I want less I turn it down. Occasionally I feel it would be easier to have a smaller and lighter rig for smaller gigs, but I get over it once I hear it

    As if Trump and Brexit weren't enough change to be going on with......
  22. Beedster
    This ^ I can't speak for the effects of fretting a formerly fretless neck, but I've had basses that sang with a fretless neck and were comparatively lifeless when a fretted neck was installed (I like to chop and change necks). OK, the fact that it's both the original neck and that it's graphite reduces the risk somewhat, but I can't help feeling that Tony's advice is good advice 👍
  23. Beedster
    Nice room 👍
  24. Beedster
    Welcome Chris, great that you’ve joined us, many many many Trace and Status fans here, suspect you’re gonna be kept busy 👍
  25. Beedster
    You do some lovely interesting gigs Michael 👍
