    I've had some very lovely & stylish trade offers recently, but just not the right one! I'd be tempted by a maple boarded american jazz or rosewood precision. I'll happily consider other basses (ricks, gibson EB's, other mm's, old jap... anything that's a bit of a classic will be considered) and could part-ex or add money depending on the instrument. Whatever it is, it must be unmodified and not sunburst. I think I might withdraw this soon and keep it under my bed for a few years.

    Six pages... six... What a bleedin' gear tart. Anyway, I just bought my second of ash's bass cast me offs. The first time was in days yore when Basschat was a mere twinkle in Ped's eye... when all this was still fields. Let's be honest, there's so many basses past through ash's grubby mitts at this point, half the guitars in Northern Europe probably belonged to him at some point. He's got second hand bass dealing down to a fine art. Bish bosh, job done. Deal with utmost confidence. Thanks ash. Hope to deal with you again soon.

    I have to agree with most of the sentiment expressed by the OP. and have for years now avoided any musical scenarios where I might accidentaly find myself upon a stage seeking validation from strangers. This includes going to meet other musicians 'just for a jam' because one thing leads to another and, well... It amuses me, the reaction I get sometimes, when people find out I play an instrument but don't want to play for an audience. They range from a dog that's been shown a card trick, to shock and anger.

    Price dropped. I can't go any lower than that.

    If I needed a rig to gig, I most probably would. Deal with confidence here folks. Burns-bass is a bonafide Bristol Basschat legend.

    I'd be impressed if we could just have the 'Mod Shop' configurator.

    This looks like a cracking rig.

    I could be tempted into a trade for something American and Fender shaped; vanilla, passive, boring and unmodded though please. An american standard/pro precision with a rosewood board, or a jazz with a maple board? A natural AV75 RI Jazz would be welcome. Perhaps it's trade-bait for a more valuable instrument that you'd like to downgrade? Cash adjustment is available for something more esoteric... lets talk. I have a documented aversion to anything 'burst' coloured though. I know, I know, there's lots of great instruments that are 3TSB/sun/antigua/whatever but I can't be doing with any of it sorry. It's a thing.

    Feedback for grahamd

    Shambo replied to MB1's topic in Feedback

    Dealing with Graham is like waiting for a bus. You wait ten years for another one and then two turn up at once. More richly deserved positive feedback from me.

    Sold Mart a hard case. Easy comms and fast payment. Highly recommended. Many thanks.

    Stew just called round to buy a stand off me and I have to say I was very disappointed. He looks absolutely nothing like he does in his avatar! The fact that the deal went through so quickly and that Stew himself seems like quite an amiable chap, is small consolation for having my expectation of answering the door to a 1950's neon pink beauty so... resoundingly crushed. Thanks a bunch Stew!

    If somebody asked me, I would take a short video of a bass with my phone, with sound too if they wanted, but both would be very poor quality and not representative of the instrument they would receive, for better or worse. As the seller is not obligated to meet your stipulations, you'll just have to spend your money on something else.
