  1. Yes Thomann are a large company and I have heard some criticism of them over the years but I've always found them to be excellent in terms of prices, offers and customer service.. I recently ordered an Artec SE-2 Preamp from them and then had a rethink and went for a Glockenklang pre instead. I initiated a return for the Artec yesterday and they've told me they'll refund me but to keep it. Peter
  2. It's not a finish, it's the wood grain. Peter
  3. I've had a look and can't see mention of this elsewhere. Alan Cringeon is a valued friend. I've followed his career as a luthier for at least 11 years, from the early days. Many of you will know him and his work, either directly or from various bass resources. I won't go on but I would like to offer my congratulations as a Salace 5 String E-Type has just been awarded the accolade 'Fretless Bass of 2017' by Bass Guitar Magazine. I know how much time, effort and pure craft Alan has devoted to building both basses and guitars over the years and I for one am dead chuffed for him. Peter
  4. It was a pleasure indeed Mick. The ACG wasn't getting used due to my lack of fretless skills so that is a plus. I'm loving what is a great example of a SGC Nanyo J5. Fettling but not because it isn't great.
  5. I'm going to initiate the return procedure this afternoon so if you're tempted then please commit Peter
  6. Price for the COG now £210. That's nearly half the price of individual units but with greater flexibility. Peter
  7. 180mm x 112mm x 37mm case or 55mm to top of knobs.
  8. I decided to upgrade an existing pre-amp and ordered an Artec SE-2 2 band pre-amp from Thomann. https://www.thomann.de/gb/artec_se2_basselektronik.htm I then changed my mind (doh) and ordered a Glockenklang instead. Probably a more transparent and slightly better pre and with passive ability and tone control (at 4 over times the price). So I can send the unopened Artec back to Thomann and pay postage or I can sell it to a Bass Chatter and pay their UK postage. £22 to nearly cover my costs, a bargain, no silly offers please. Peter
  9. Withdrawn as I listed it under price. Peter
  10. This is a silly price. My mistake. One went for £128 plus postage on eBay last night. I'm withdrawing tomorrow so last chance at a silly price. Peter
  11. I did a trade with Mick for the Ivory SGC Nanyo J5. It's good to have a Bass Collection in the house again and this one is a lovely example. It was a pleasure. Peter
  12. Do pm me Ziggy. It’s a great little recorder. Peter
  13. In good working order, boxed and with all accessories, leads and remote. Made by Roland, a good quality recorder. Free UK postage.
  14. A pleasure to deal with. Recommended. Peter
  15. A pleasure.
  16. Absolutely. If I wasn’t reducing my bass gear I’d be all over this. In fact if Mick wanted my COG unit I probably still would ?
  17. Russ, due to my mistake re book availability I've pm'd you back. Peter
  18. A pleasure to do business with. Peter
  19. Being a realist, this isn't selling. I appreciate that it's a lot of money for an effects pedal. With that in mind feel free to hit me with trades. Peter
  20. The video of course makes both points very well Alan. One impacts on the other too.
  21. Of course he's competing because for him the big factories are valid competition.
