A bump and a price reduction. Laney R1 now £90 a perfect unit for practice as new at a great price. Yamaha Cab again new, a steal at £180 Visits welcome, kettle always on and a beer in the fridge! Peter

[quote]I admire these over Fender![/quote] Schhhh you can't say that, the Fender Mafia have ears! I admire a lot over Fender myself but there's no accounting for taste I've seen this bass in 'ein Fleish' and golden age of Warwick it surely is. If I wasn't shedding too many basses I'd be seriously tempted.

I thought I'd update on the Flea. I'm absolutely loving it, popped some new strings on today (EB Ultra Slinkeys) and actually had a raise the action a smidge, so graphite necks do move a bit I'm loving the tone when a little bit of bass is boosted and the mids are very upper middy which is great for a slappin' an a poppin' if that's your thing. Basically, I'm loving it, oops must stop repeating myself.

Nice to hear from you! I'm currently at 18 basses and one on order and something has to give. I'll regret it no doubt

Here is my Erle Korpus Epi Thunderbird in gloss black (not the Goth model). This bass is absolutely mint and normally retails for more than the standard or matt black models. I've relocated the front strap lock to eliminate the neck dive and as I've modded an overwater strap (with Schaller straplocks) to fit it'll be included in the sale. Yes there is an extra screw in the back of the neck where my 1st relocation attempt failed but I'll guarentee it's not an issue. £200 + P&P Next bass up for sale is my Les Evans. This may appeal to those interested in something different but not at all radical. This custom bass was made in Liverpool by a builder whose work is seldom seen. It is more than just well made, it's built like a brick shithouse while retaining real ascetic qualities (the body contours are particularly stunning). The neck is a 7 piece laminate and the pickups are Kent Armstrong running through a John East U-Retro with sweepable mid and coil switching. All hardware is top quality Schaller and the bridge is adjustable through a significant range. The bass is grey, which may sound drab but it actually works very well with the gold hardware. The neck on this bass is fairly triangular in shape and is very slim and would suit those with small hands. I've got big uns and I still find it comfortable to play. This is seriously well made instrument. So here it is, £500 + P&P Peter

I'd be interested to see how you rate it alongside the MIA P. Peter

This pickup has 4 wires, not sure how they function but I'm looking for £25 delivered for this quality P pickup. Peter

I'm having a general sort out and up for grabs is my new BBT210S Yamaha cab, it's a 4 ohm cab rated at 250W RMS. This cab is new and failing digging it out from the back of my very 'busy' box room they look like this: [url="http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/regular/0/6/8/232068.jpg"]http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics.../6/8/232068.jpg[/url] It's a well made 2x 10" with a horn complete with a pad to adjust it. I'm looking for £200 ideally collected but I'm prepared to travel a reasonable distance/meet up. Also up for sale is a mint Laney R1 combo, specs as: Power RMS 65 Watts Inputs 2: Normal & High Equalisation Bass, Parametric Mid, Treble FX Loop(s) Yes Impedance Minimum 4 ohms Drivers 10" Celestion + Switchable Horn Cabinet Design Plywood cabinet construction. Dual Position "Kickback" Cabinet design. Rugged construction with metal corners, rubber feet, strap handle & kick proof metal grill Headphone Socket Yes Enhance Yes Compressor Switchable with "On" status light Limiter Fixed Internal DI Socket Yes: Pre EQ XLR Tuner Output Socket Yes Kick Proof Metal Grill Yes Weight 22kg Dimensions (mm) 381 x 335 x 393 I'm looking for £100 for this essentially new mini combo. Can post for reasonable amount. Peter

That's really nice, I'm warming to G&L's but have basses to sell (note to self - must sell, musn't buy). I bought the 4003, good guy to deal with.

As Marcus says, a cracking bass with an amazing tonal pallette. It's also a great example of Lakland's work and looks damn sexy to boot! Top price too. Peter

You Sir, have a pm. Peter

Just to say that I met John and saw/heard this beatiful thru neck Warwick today. Sound guy and a real Warwick, made when they built their reputation! John is a great guy, have no qualms dealing with him.
