I was forced to withdraw mine from sale, Munk made me feel awful, he was right though.

Thanks for the input guys, this has turned into an interesting thread. I knew John Rackham who owned Wesley and have bought quite a few of his instruments over the years. His setup guy is Annie Lennox's bass player apparently, and he does a hell of a job. They do a Monarch natural bass for about £90 and there's nothing to touch it for the money, it's great!

Heard of Johnny Brook but not had one..yet

Crikey that's nice

I assume it comes out of the same factory as all the other fakers? Is that the name "Anniversary" ?

Cheers for the heads up

I know what you're saying and there is a lot of good cheap stuff out there, I just wondered if anyone had experience of them and you answered my question, very emphatically

On sale here:

Seriously considering one of these because my divorce will be very painful if I buy a real one. Appreciate any feedback from anyone who has/had one.

Thanks, Tom.

That bad eh? I suppose it must be for that price. I once bought a couple of his strat copies and they were really bad too.
Got a refund to be fair.

Thanks for reminding me.

Anyone ever bought one of these for a project? No brainer for 49 quid isn't it? or £61 delivered

His guitars are junk usually but a P copy?

Andy bought my Stingray. What a gentleman! Paid very quickly, great communication.
Deal with confidence, a credit to the forums.

Thanks again.

Tom.

I can recommend Nigel Stockbridge in Richmond, North Yorks.

I've had a lot of work done over the years though not on bass's. He can repair or set up anything, very clever man who deals with a lot of famous people.

Also Steve Suggitt. Lives in West Ayton near Scarborough is another luthier I have used. He builds all kinds of guitars and does repairs and setups. Very talented man.

And finally, Martin Dixon

Can do anything. I've seen bass's that he's made and they are simply stunning! He's in Otley near Leeds.

Hope that helps.

Tom.

Something odd here, the red wording and picture backgrounds are a bit familiar, check this out:

I've dealt with David and he's a decent bloke.

Bugger, what a gorgeous bass

Haven't quite got enough or I'd bite your hand off.

Feel for you dude, hope it all works out ok, Regards, Tom.

Here is my EB Stingray in natural with maple neck.

Immaculate condition, no discernable fretwear, just a super bass with a great action and complete with it's hardcase. I think it's about 4 years old.

For sale because I have 2 and I have bad gas for a certain members Jazz DL.

£680 plus any carriage, if anyone's near enough & interested, your welcome for coffee and a play of it.

You won't be disappointed.

Thanks for looking.

do you have a good pic of the actual bass please?

Sold.

Hi, I have an as new Nokia 5800, received as an upgrade, used for 3 days, hate it cos it's touch screen and I'm old and arthritic.
Comes with the usual kit, can't find the instruction book as yet but should do before it's sold.

Boxed and on Orange at the moment but they can be unlocked cheaply.



Happy new Year to all.

Tom.

What jaguar? Great artistic stance

Just done a deal with Porkpie with my Blue Paisley Fender. Top man to deal with, paid very promptly
and had a good chat on the phone.

Trade with confidence folks, Neil's a great guy

Tom (1946)

You're killing me Munk!

Gonna find something else to sell, had a play last night, can't believe how versatile the Jag is. :^^:

I would if you weren't so bloody far away

Sunday morning bump

My music room is sacrosanct, if anyone wants to stay here it's a sleeping bag on the lounge floor or in the local pub.

My wife says I'm mean :blush:

Wesley are fantastic value for money, I had the see through 4 string and it weighed more than me

I've had it for about 6 months now but I have a lot of bass's.
