  1. [quote name='dave_bass5' post='850308' date='May 28 2010, 01:43 PM']Mine is also like that.[/quote] So I should assume that this is a feature and not something that needs changing?
  2. I have just bought a Ray34, I am really pleased with it, however I have one question: The nut doesnt sit flat on mine, the E string side seems a couple of mill higher than the G. This makes the E string sit higher than the other strings I have adjusted the action on that string and it now seems fine. From what I can see the nut on mine looks similar to the OP's, almost a wedge shape is this normal? Apologies for the hijack and also if the question is a bit daft.
  3. Price drop to £370 bump If nothing happens this time I am putting it in the loft.
  4. The first bass I bought was the Dean Jeff Berlin Basic Bass, I really like it, it feels very confortable to play. One thing I noticed is that although it is a full scale bass it is a good couple of inches shorter than a Fender Jazz or Precision. The last bass I bought was a Yamaha RBX A2 from Redstriper on this forum, again a great bass but similar in size and proportion to the Dean. Do basses of this size have a name, are they recognised as a seperate sized bass? If not do you know of any other manufacturers that produce basses to a similar size?
  5. I recently purchased Steve's Yamaha RBX A2 bass. I am very pleased with the bass, it is in excellent condition, better than described! It arrived in double quick time, I paid for it Wednesday night and it arrived Friday lunchtime, very well packed too. This was a great transaction for me, Steve is a great guy to deal with, buy with confidence.
  6. BUMP

  8. [quote name='woodsman' post='829851' date='May 6 2010, 05:41 PM']Nice bass - been looking for one for a while. Would you take £350 inc. delivery? Steve[/quote] Thanks for the offer Steve, looking for more than that though.
  9. Hello, I a based in Ipswich and I am looking for lessons, does anybody have any recommendations for tutors in the area? Thanks
  10. The bass is still available.
  11. Bump
  12. Pricedrop bump
  13. Mid-Monday morning bump
  14. Mark brought my Gibson SG bass, he was very easy to deal with, he auditioned the bass at my my house and bought it there and then. Nice guy, made a change to have somebody playing bass in my house that knows what they are doing. Thanks
  15. Friday Bump
  16. Looks like the new world record attempt has failed at 18 days. After starting this thread yesterday, I phoned BassCentre but I had to leave my number as the person dealing with it was not in. I got a callback within 30 mins with apologies and confirmation that the refund had been put through, yeah right heard that before, but I can confirm that the refund is in my bank this morning.
  17. Back up for Sale bump
  18. Added Pictures bump
  19. I am looking to sell the Gibson SG that I bought from TOM1946 about 4/5 weeks ago. It is a lovely bass and really in excellent, as new condition and that is the problem, I dare not play it for fear of 'reducing' the quality of the current condition. I play it for perhaps 15 minutes every now and again and then hide it in its case when not in use, since I bought it I have fitted some chrome flats to it, only because I did not want to damage the fingerboard with rounds. It comes with the Gibson hardcase, strap, tuner, original strings, and original receipt and paperwork as well as the original strings which were replaced by the chromes. The original advert is [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=79190&hl=sg+bass"]HERE[/url]. [s]I am looking for £620 delivered to go some way to covering the cost of the chromes that is currently fitted with.[/s] SOLD
  20. I would be interested to know if this can be beaten by any other stores but I think Basscentre can be placed into the Guiness Book of Records for the "longest delay between requesting and receiving a refund for a cancelled order" record (catchy title I know). I asked to have an order for a SB14 bass cancelled on the 29th March, now on the 14th April I am still waiting for the refund to appear in my bank account, 17 days and counting! Wouldn't be quite so bad if I they had not promised several times that the refund had been made but "it takes a couple of days for it to appear in your account". If I get a good resolution to this I will keep you informed, but lets wait and see
  21. I put my TumbleDryer on the GrammaPad, probably need another now to put the combo on.
  22. There are now 2 copies in circulation, I sent my copy straight to Hamster. [quote name='daz' post='796667' date='Apr 5 2010, 03:45 PM']are there 2 copies now in circulation ? if so then lets make sure that both copies are not posted to the same next in line person.[/quote]
  23. Having recently bought two basses from Tom, he decided to return the favour and buy my Squier Vintage Modified Jazz bass! Having now had experience of dealing with Tom as both buyer and seller I can definately say that he is a top guy to deal with. More than happy to deal with him again. Thanks
  24. It has not, will not be made into firewood, it was an attempt at humour. I have put it on eBay 99p with no reserve.
  25. I couldn't do it to the duck, I took Bassman2790's advice instead, the bass has now been turned into firewood. As you can see the wife is very happy about it.
