  1. Info update as I’ve been asked: *side dots are in the fretted position (that is: middle of ‘frets’). * As stated it’s a Tanglewood but the logo has been replaced and so can be removed or replaced if necessary. * The neck is in impeccable condition. No dings etc…. Plays super smooth, nice spacing and lovely maple.
  2. Coolz. As in the description, courier possible if buyer arranged…
  3. Now that is a problem……🙏🏾 Quoting myself here: “You’ll know what’s best for you.” Custom made one with wings or a Dua Lipa ‘levitating’ model?🤣 Seriously speaking, hope you find a good one👍🏽🤞🏽
  4. No probs. You’ll know what’s best for you. Saying that…… I have always preferred solid feeling (heavy in some guy’s opinion) basses as they seem to sound ‘tighter/crisper/snappier’ etc… in my experience. Even for Fretless. I guess one possible compromise is weight..,but I’ve compensated throughout the years by better (wider/thicker) straps and if the bass itself does not balance well (again in my opinion…approx 45 degree hang), I’m always prepared to move strap pins! Very subjective topic I know🙄 40 years plus playing has hardened my spine on many levels (🤣🤣) I’ve played and owned a wide variety (not all sadly) of ‘factory’ made to ‘custom’ made from vintage to modern basses…and my view hasn’t changed. Stubborn? Set in my ways?🤷🏽‍♂️
  5. No working scale at home at the moment (wife rule), but if I remember correctly it’s not a super lightweight…maybe between 8-9lbs. sorry to be vague…
  6. Thinning is necessary but so painful! 😖🤕 Hopefully someone has a need/space for this beauty! Tough to see it go after getting it to an unbelievable playing state…but my fretless needs are well covered (ACG plug alert)!😎
  7. Unbelievable what this sounds like for the price….(not just lip service here🫤)
  8. Played and bumped! Continuum sounds like the real deal!!
  9. At it again!!!!!
  10. …still a mini slog but…. pm me details if possible please..
  11. Who does great brass nuts? And is near (ish) Aylesbury, Bucks? Hopefull🙏🏾
  12. A doable drive…. Don’t know Gary…. Care to share?
  13. Finding a local (within reason) to do is proving to be more difficult than I thought. Alan (ACG) is just too far! Move closer damnnit!! Just checked Bass Gallery……one week turnaround (two London trips)! Wowza! May have to pull out the pliers and a manual!
  14. Thanks for that. Its a US company…haven’t done that kind of transaction in a long while. I was hoping to use someone more local to me (a bit more local than that😂) But..in case, anyone with experience in cost/time/tax etc….for US shipping to the UK? Even with a small item like this…
  15. Need (want) a shiny brass nut on my ACG Finn 5 string. Mostly for aesthetic reasons (well aware of the use of metal vs the rest arguments…phew). Anyone recommended in the Buckinghamshire area ? I’m in Aylesbury. Also I cant seem to find any blanks in the approx size….W5.5mm, L47.8mm, H9.5-8.5mm
  16. Can’t stop marvelling at the versatility of this bass! Yep….good job Alan👍🏽
  17. Right….well someone’s in for a good deal then! Ain’t that so😉?
  18. Shame it’s still here…should be Jaco/Pino/Willis ..ing somewhere in the world!!
