    Bought back memories that did! I bought a bass on eBay from the US years ago, and the seller indicated a valuation of around twice what I paid on the basis that in his opinion that's what the bass was worth should it be lost or damaged. Can almost see his logic but didn't do me any favours when it came to import duty, VAT etc.

    Great review @fretless, many thanks. Are you finding that battery life isn't in fact a problem, or at least no more than with an active electric bass?

    My interest in the 300 will be revised once they appear for sale again. Having checked when I sold my SLB-100, most of the retailers who suggested that they have the SLB-300 in stock are, to use a well worn phrase, actually 'awaiting delivery'..... There also seem to be some serious issues around battery life, so I'm wondering whether there's some post-Covid component availability issues preventing more units coming off the production lines, it's odd for Yamaha to have gone to market with a unit with (alleged) performance issue and to then offer such poor availability, especially as it seems that not many players have taken the plunge and bought one yet? The shame is that I bet it's a cracking instrument and had there been one available a month or so ago it would be sitting in my studio now 👍

    Open to offers on this, the bow along is probably worth close to the asking price 🤔

    Clearing out the studio and need this gone really, cash offers? The relic look may not be to your liking, but this is a cracking and very playable guitar, hand-made in Canada and carrying a great pre-amp.....

    Need this gone ASAP, offers welcome 👍

    On reflection looking like you’ll be loud should be taken as a positive Clarky, better than looking like you’ll be crap 🤔

    ‘Looked too loud’ is a new one, glad you had the balls to walk. Some flipping idiots running venues these days 😟 Please play Kent soon 👍

    Have a good one Clarky, will catch you in this band one day 👍

    There's more 80's stars in that audience than are currently on the road in 80's reunion tours, they must have recorded that at a TOTP recording 👍

    You'd have thought that knowing that video was out there would have prohibited the guilty parties from ever wanting to become sufficiently famous for it to be unearthed 🤔

    He is and he does. The Pith helmet adds another dimension also 🤔
  16. Beedster
    Sold 👍

    Indeed it was, was he wearing that 1800’s pith helmet when you saw him too! All joking aside he gets great tone and volume out of it 👍
  18. Beedster
    Sale pending 👍
  19. Beedster
    Lovely 👍
  20. Beedster
    All joking aside never realised he was in EWB and how many classic songs he wrote 👍

    To say that this is a lot of amp of the cash is a ludicrous understatement, this is the sort of amp that totally dominates a stage and allows an audience feel the music as opposed to simply hearing the music. The first time I plugged mine in and hit an open A string it was, no joke, a defining moment "Ah, that's bass....". Yep, it's heavy, expensive to re-tube (although not often) and doesn't do quiet, but bloody hell they're minor issues compared to what you do get 👍
  22. Beedster
    I get you 👍
  23. Beedster
    Loud as flip
  24. Beedster
    You only have to check my avatar to know how highly I rate this instrument; if this bass was a ring it would be the one ring to rule them all

    Two band preamp on the USA SUBs is lovely BTW 👍
