  1. Guys point me in the direction of custom creations and people that can do little custom jobs. (pics if you have) 1) Truss rod covers: (with letters, word or even small image etc) 2) Cavity covers: Same as above but also with different materials and easy access (magnets?) Sorry if this already been covered....or I’ve opened up a can of ‘woes’. cheers
  2. A couple of 8” drivers from respected audio company Audax. Both measure 4.7ohms. One unused and in mint condition in original box, the other shows sign of use but fully tested to be working faultlessly. I have used the same model in some small bass guitar cabs and they sound great, however I don’t know the handling power. £25 for the pair or £15 each collected from Aylesbury. Or can be posted at buyer’s cost.
  3. Good buyer! And abroad to boot. Recomended for sure👍🏽
  4. Ok just move this to here then...... Good seller! Straightforward! Just the way it should be👍🏽
  5. Good seller! Straightforward!

      Then the fellow deserves for it to be said here:

      Feedback for Osiris.

      It'll be easier to find when others are considering dealing with him.

  6. Ok. So you’re not, neither am I...just the tone in your quote indicated that I may be deliberately misleading, and that you may be an expert. My research indicated that it’s a 615. String winding: I know the deal (simply put it’s a silly piece of engineering by SGC Nanyo). I decided to wind them this way. (tired off this now...) Interested in any of them?
  7. They are really good basses...got the money too. I personally felt that the original pre-amp restricted what they are capable of... (having played one with original electronics and now running them through various outboard pre-amps). But views differ...see above
  8. Pre-amp: agreed Model: I did a bit of research as it indicated to what I have said. I’m no expert so could be wrong. Are you an expert? Someone may be able to correct either or both of us.... String winding: ....here we go again....wrong/right? Each his own...
  9. Yep. What you said! When I asked for that I believe Alan said something similar! 🤩 The upper cut-away allows full access to the ‘nose bleed’ register (note: the real money is at the lower end fellow bass players)! Up there is for fun....
  10. [NOW SOLD, MUCH THANKS] http://www.acguitars.co.uk/project/0172-finn-r-type-fretless-5/ I put the link above to let the pictures do the talking...plus specs. As I’m going in a different direction, I’ve decided to let this one go. In mint condition! Plays like a dream! I spoke to Alan Cringean himself (luthier) and even he says he went in deep with this one and some lucky owner would enjoy immensely. The electronics is the East-UK, Uni-pre as I’m more familiar with this setup and so has a vast variety of tones in the engine! Partial lines and luminay dots on lines on the side. I’ll put a fresh set of strings on and a new 9v battery before collection or shipping (probably Newtones). I’ll add some home pics but the original pics are more professional so have a look at both. Aylesbury collection possible but UK shipping and Hiscox hard case included in the price. Note: this spec would cost approx £3000 (and you would have to wait!) Now....who’s feeling lucky?
  11. My two cents.... Benefits of an outboard pre-amp includes not having to modify your bass, switching in/out with your feet, using it with different basses/situations, no 9v battery issues. Benefits of an onboard pre-amp includes quick hands on changes, pickup/pre-amp compatibility (if chosen correctly), no extra gear carrying They both have can be connected to the power-amp section of an amp (plug into the return to bypass the pre-amp section) to have a familiar tone. I personally prefer the onboard system but to each his own! (And I support local...East-UK is the bomb!!) Good luck on your searches
  12. ps: threats of more tonal examples....😇
  13. Somehow I agree🧐 Pickups are blended with dual blends. One for between the P and JJ and one for between the JJ set. Thus you can have the in-between tones... Weight I don’t know (no scale at the moment)...but in comparison to my other basses, quite light and comfortable for long periods (a big part of the reason I chose for the road). String spacing is 18mm.
  14. Yep. Not deliberately. My good pal John East pointed that out to me. The Urge bass wasn't it?
  15. Ok. You forced me!😫 Added some sound files (apologies for the cheese)
  16. NOW SOLD cheers guys!!👍🏽
  17. NOW SOLD- much thanks, please delete. (someone is extremely happy🤗😉) It does not look like your usual 605 model because.... *DiMarzio JJ pickups *EMG p/bass pickup *East UK Uni-Pre active electronics. *Custom made rosewood scratch plate to accommodate the pickups. This was put together to use on travel gigs where I need a professional/reliable/flexible instrument and sound without taking an expensive instrument (damn you airlines!!). Slap, fast/fluid/finger style Jazz, p-bass thump and all the in between styles readily available on this beauty! In great condition (small nick on the headstock) with few but not obvious or large marks. With chrome hardware! (Updated pics). The switch is a ‘kill’ switch. I use it as a mute to avoid any unwanted ‘accidents’ live. Gig bag included. Yamaha Specs: Nathan East Sculpted Body Design Solid Alder Body 5-String Maple Neck Rosewood Fingerboard 24 Frets, 34” scale. Neck width 45mm at the nut and 75mm at the last fret. 18mm string spacing at bridge. Collection from Aylesbury preferred or can post to UK. Feel free to ask away for any more info.
  18. East all the way for flexibility and tone....
