  1. I've always thought that you and I share similar brain circuitry Owen
  2. Heretic, i use fine oils from Tibet. When I received it I was a little disappointed that it was bottomless, but realised pretty quickly that the overall weight had there been a base would likely have crushed most worktops. This is not a lightweight unit
  3. Hey folks, I think this sold earlier today, just waiting on confirmation 👍
  4. Hey mate, yes it's a pretty nice instrument, lots of extremely positive reviews online. Re the neck, it suited me as a bassist more than a lot of guitars for sure, and yes, the preamp is rather good (although it's Godin so you'd expect that). I've owned more expensive guitars than didn't play as well or sound as good as this also (mention no names but rhymes with Mibson). I'm selling this to raise some funds for the house move, but have to admit that I won't be too upset if it doesn't sell
  5. In my experience that type of denial usually indicates that you're the new owner 👍
  6. This does trouble me on occasion I must admit, someone on here really should buy it https://reverb.com/uk/item/46016454-takamine-tb10-2006-in-fitted-hard-case
  7. If the mods had demonstrated the good sense to ban me 10 years ago I'd be a whole lot wealthier today
  8. BTW, did you see the blonde TB-10 that was for sale in Russia a while back, that tested my resolve seriously
  9. A Takamine TB-10 has a curved board, an endpin and can be bowed with ease, so clearly meets the criteria for a double bass Clarky, so not a problem
  10. Ha ha, how little you understand my brain mate. It all makes sense in principle, until you examine the inevitable logic...... I'll have a cheapo bitsa on standby I'm gonna need cheapo fretless bitsa on standby as well And of course a cheapo active bitsa might come in handy also Hang on, I haven't got a cheapo active fretless bitsa for a Japan Tribute that might start up locally I'm a bit troubled by the maple board/rosewood board issue, I should probably reduce that anxiety by having a cheap bitsa in each But surely if the maple board issue is true for fretted basses, it muct be even more so for fretless so I need a fretless in each as well stinky poo, completely forgot about the flats versus round issue, what if the Japan Tribute act needs a fretless with rounds but the Free Tribute need flats? And I'm gonna need all those combinations in active and passive as well.. I could go on..............
  11. There is no better way to arrive at a session that that Clarky. Love that they're not from Alabama but Finland
  12. You might have let me know, the whole world feels different now And as all aficionados are aware, '89 was THE year for Stingray's, and that looks like a beaut mate. GLWTS
  13. Where's the map gone Walshy
  14. I might not have asked Rev, but I'm very grateful Sir
  15. We'll find something else to trade mate, I've got an old 19th century German blonde fiddle after all............
  16. How did I forget them. The '57 was something special wasn't it, glorious instrument. The Wals.......? I think the reality for me was that while they were good instruments, the mystique always exceeded the reality, I think I genuinely preferred my fretless Ric to any of the fretless Wals I owned, just sounded and played better. But then to my mind the £400 Warmoth bitsa I just sold would also give the Wals a run for their money (I recognise that many would disagree)
  17. And before I send I'll be emptying all the pockets, I sent a BCer a nice set of TI flats the last time I sold a case
  18. Thanks guys, happy to post this BTW, very might so probably not much more than a tenner
  19. Bump for the Vintera PUPs and the P-Retro in need of repair, that for reasons I can't remember never did make it to Owen!
