  1. They sold it cheap because half the electronics didn't work. As I suspected (and slightly gambled) the battery needed replacing and all is well. Needs a new set of strings but she plays very well and sounds meaty and Crisp. Lully stuff.
  2. Well... That was a good deal! I had a good look at the Yammy, also had a good look at a 70's Ibanez Concord acoustic (a little tatty), paid £220 for both and got them to throw in the full Sopranos box set! A good days buying, cheers for the tip sir! Russ.
  3. On my way there now to take a look... Will let you know if I grab it! Also... At the cash converters in Basildon town centre a few years ago I bought a Warwick Vampyre (the ones with the 5k price tag new) with serial number 001 for £700. You do grt the occassional steal from cash converters!
  4. Not sure if anyone else has this issue, but when I open any photobucket link from my phone I instantly get spammed the crap out of... So I can't see these pics!
  5. Smashing heads!
  6. Can people please stop putting awesome 6 strings up for sale!!! At the moment I'd need somewhere in the realm of £50,000 to state my GAS.
  7. Any trade options?
  8. The guy seemed to genuinely not have a single clue about basses. He's now amended the title to simply read "Bass Guitar".
  9. Awesome bass! Though I can't help but think the body looks like a chubby cat... Though I bet it's the best damn playing chubby cat out there!
  10. I'm 80 miles away, I suggested perhaps a meet halfway, also he has a few other interesting guitars for sale of you check his other ads.
  11. I've messaged the guy... Will see what he says!
  12. This won't be here long... T'were it a 6er it'd already be gone!
  13. Is that Camphor burl I see there?
  14. They still make these new?? Wow, I had one as my very first bass 16 years ago, quite a serviceable bass if I remember.
  15. Great grain on this one...
  16. Wait... They're gone... Damn!
  17. PM'd about the tuners.
  18. Wondered how long it would take to show up on here! This is mine, there's a 1115 combo for sale too.. Could be a good package for someone.
  19. Hi, I recently picked up a great Tokai Thunderbird in ivory, when I tested it before purchase everything was fine, loud output, no audible issues of any kind. A week later... I plugged it into an ancient Trace Elliot 1115 combo and the output was incredibly low, the amp was almost all the way up and you could barely here the bass, tried a different bass in the amp and it was fine. I picked up an Ashdown 2x10 combo yesterday and again plugged in the Tokai, same issue, hardly any volume at all, again tried a different bass and all is good. So it must be the Tokai itself? It has had no knocks or bumps while in my possession, it isn't active so there is no dead battery situation, I've had the cavity cover off and everything appears good, no crackling or popping etc. Anyone have any thoughts as to the issue?? Russ.
