  1. I recently got the 'not pink' jazz from hillbilly deluxe; I'd not come across the Howard/Jim Cairnes combo before... It's the best 'Jazz' I've played, the feel is just perfect. I know it was a big deal to let it go but just to say I do appreciate it. Having this bass i just can't believe there are not more big names playing work by these guys.
  2. I've had four 6P's over the years and this is by far the best one, the neck is slim and super fast and for its age ('92) it's in fab condition; Piezzos fully working.
  3. Have played this and can confirm the condition is A1, Andy is a top guy to deal with. If you're thinking you need 'that Ampeg sound' it's easy... buy an Ampeg...
  4. What can you say.... Alembic do it again; fabulous looking bass, their build qaulity and finish always leave me looking for superlatives.

    "SOLD"

    Love the 'burst on this and in beautiful condition.
  6. Whew, for a minute there I thought I read '9' string ... and here's me finding 6 a push... I have an ACG and the build quality is second to none; on your bass I especially love the 'mirrored' board. Good luck with the sale.
  7. And again... never played a 'wide neck' model and I'm glad really as it was a tough call to move on a standard width where I was looking for a 'bit' more spacing a la Fender. Good luck, looks lovely!
  8. Sorry to contradict you but there are no '[i]Bad Points[/i]' to a Bassman 135 and matching 215... Good luck, fabulous vintage tone at a fantastic price.
  9. Oh just buy it!!! You know it makes sense... which is more than i do. If you're in Edinburgh and want to try my fretless (5) (open invitation by the way.. told Alan I'm happy to have anyone who needs convincing try mine) drop me a note; easy arranged. You 'just' escape 'cause Leeds is more than an hour by private helicopter... which of course you have... Andy
  10. Oh dear deity of your choice...absolutely gorgeous!!! Should you decide to 'temporarily' leave it with someone whilst waiting for a sale I would like to volunteer...
  11. Since I got my ACG have to say... you want it 'cause you instinctively know how it's going to play... perfectly. If it was a five or six I'd be in a cold sweat RFN... P.S. you know; and I know you know; and you know I know you know... it makes sense... If you've not played one your really owe it to yourself. smarmy, smug ACG owner...
  12. Looking at the second pic with the cab and bass got to say... 'perfection' Love the look of all the components but together... ahhhh Head looks fantastic. Hope the new owner enjoys...
  13. Ron, I have to tell you that I LOVE this finish; was in the frame for a short period for a Skjold Whaleback 6 with natural woods but the finish on your bass is just awesome, I'm not in a place to do anything except coming back again and again to drool at the pictures Best of luck and welcome aboard. Andy
  14. Looks great, the binding really sets off the birdseye top. Great price.
  15. Fair price for an industry standard; they really do just do the biz, couriers ain't so bad if you wrap well, take the tubes out, bubble wrap them and put them back inside for transport. If you want 'that tube sound' there's nothing more simplistic/reliable than an Ampeg. good luck.
  16. Seems like no money at all for a through body bass with a top class facing.
  17. Always thought a Stingray 5 should look like this... love it... no cash best of luck. It's also the finish I would choose... b***oc*s
  18. I'm with Zed, no finer look for a Stingray...
  19. +n where 'n' is VERY large number... want to see this, imaginations in overdrive....
  20. I'll never have the money for one of these but I love them, design, materials everything... good luck; if you ever want to move it on at a staggering loss let me know...
  21. The Checkerboard edging on these has always been my favorite purfling; never seen one in the flesh, just pix when they came out (International Musician or Beat Instrumental... can't remember which). I love the look of this bass. Got to be worth every penny. Best of luck
