  1. You know it makes sense... to somebody. Treat yourself, it's nearly ******mas. Andy
  2. Hi all... try as I might... so it's back to basics (pardon the pun). Matt Pulcinella (MPGuitars.com) Level 6 Fretted in lush Blue Quilt Maple. [attachment=61300:body.JPG] [attachment=61301:front.JPG] [attachment=61302:back.JPG] 35" scale; 19mm spacing at the Bridge Pau Ferro FB Bartolinis with BTB2? Preamp... 18V Master Vol (pull for Passive; full bypass; runs with dead batteries) Pan Mid (pull for second centre frequency) Stack T & B Humbucking/Single coil switch for each pickup. Hipshot US Hardware One very small ding above and behind the front pickup; not through the finish Very low action, no buzzes; on tour (by air) it's straight out the Bass Safe and bag, quick tune.. no neck adjustments required... Typical Bart clarity and depth. With OK gigbag.. will pack well. £1000 MAIL TO UK ONLY. UK mainland insured delivery included. Other UK at cost. Trade wise... US (only) Vintage reissue P bass. '57 or '62 (NO dings on neck)... not that fussy about body colour, scratchplate or the occasional knock. Thanks for looking. Andy
  3. I think that's gorgeous... Andy
  4. Don't have any money and generally don't see what's in the Celinders... BUT... this bass is absolutely beautiful and I'm only glad I'm miles away and busy.... Was going to say good luck with the sale but not sure getting rid of this bass would be lucky... so just Good Luck. Andy
  5. You need to get yourself down to the Station, get the train to Wymess Bay... get the Ferry... climb to the top of a hill and have a loud word with yourself...having sorted that out you can rejoin society refreshed... then have a pint and sell/trade all your....oh no stop it!!! This only makes you the same as rest of us... there should however be a nice quiet padded forum for us all to go to occasionally. Good luck (you do know this journey has no end don't you?) Andy (Glaswegian masquerading as an alien in Edinburgh)
  6. I've got one of these and recently played three late sixties early seventies ones... the RI won hands down in every way... If any of you are even thinking of a seventies Jazz BUY THIS. You can take the chance on an old one (rule of thumb I used in the seventies was try 12 you might get a good one..i.e. playable [b]and[/b] well made [b]and[/b] good sounding). Oh...usual fee in usual way... Good luck with the sale... Andy
  7. [quote name='EBS_freak' post='849776' date='May 27 2010, 08:50 PM']The brown decals are so classy right?![/quote] I really like them, as usual with Bernie it's the overall look/vibe, so they may work less well with different wood/hardware combinations. Ohhh while I'm on...You would go and post a bound fingerbaord Jazz... just when I thought I had finished... luckily my car is *****d at the mom so I won't have any money for a thousand years... Hm.. bound fingerboard Spitfire5..hmmmmm
  8. Soory for the delay in posting pix... got caught abroad and returned to car mayhem... still some more pix of the Angel.. sound bites I can doo at work but not 'til classes finish next week.. soooo [attachment=50684:Body.JPG] [attachment=50685:Body_Rear.JPG] [attachment=50686:Headstock_Front.JPG] [attachment=50687:Headstock_Rear.JPG] [attachment=50688:Neck_Rear.JPG] Apologies as i'm a ***t photographer. Andy
  9. Hi all, owns up to being the lucky owner of the Angel fretless five, just took delivery at the end of last week.. it's easily the best fretless I've ever played (and that includes two Wal MkIII fives). The finish is well.. STUNNING and the mahogay back allows a real fretless growl, as it's a 34" Bernie has slightly reduced the headstock to maintain proportion and the logos are in a Dark Brown to go with the finish. I'm away 'til the start of next week but will post some pix when I get back. The bass also has Bernies' newest finish on the back of the neck... wow, silkiest fastest feel ever. Sorry need to stop drooling... pity I can't change user mane to Spitfire5... Mods?.. It's THAT good. Andy p.s. been a bit of a protracted affair as I hummed and hawed a lot before making the move..thanks to EBS_Freak for the advice at the start of the journey and especially to Bernie for the top notch support and service as usual.
  10. Well, I don't have the money for this or the application.. BUT... this is the nicest bass I've [u][b]ever[/b][/u] seen and I'm JEALOUS !!!!! Good luck with the sale... although I can't imagine what you could get that would be better. Regards Andy
  11. Good luck, don't know why they ever did the Matt finish these basses play much better... and they sound better, Alnico P/Up with a true single coil position. Somebody's on a winner... but i got no money so it's not me Andy
  12. Oh well the final episode... you even gave Corrie a run for its money... Congrats Andy
  13. Hi all, just traded with Moos3h... top bloke, we had a bit of a hiccup with my courier and he was brand new in dealing with it. Totally recommend doing business with him. Andy
  14. Hi there, first off welcome... I'm not in the market, too many basses as is.... but just had to say I think the bass looks superb and seems good value at the price. Good luck with your sale. Andy
  15. Hi there for info they (Bumper) are at: [url="http://www.bumperind.com/"]http://www.bumperind.com/[/url] (music gets a bit annoying though) as you can see they do a Pro range and lots besides.. Looks like a bargain... but I'm skint and in Scotland.... Good luck with the sale. Andy
  16. Not in the market but can't believe the value for money this offers...fabby deal for the lucky buyer. Andy
  17. Hi there, I already have an MPG Level6 so not really in the market for another 6.. BUT...just watched the clip very Phillipe Catherine'esque (5000 Policemen era) ...which is a VERY good thing...pity we don't get much of this sort of thing in Scotland. I loved it.. fabby. Good luck Andy
  18. Hi there, with 'oldslapper' in as much as I got no money and my '75 reissue Jazz (USA) is going nowhere (there's been a few of these up lately and IMHO they're well worth the little extra they go for)...that said I'd LOVE your bass..fantastic looking..hope you get what you want. Andy
  19. If it lets your V4 out to play you just got the best Chrissy Pressy ever... Oh, does your misses do estate cars?? Andy
  20. Welcome, Bonne Anee, lovely piece of kit, I'm not in the market (have a Fender CSR10 300W tube head), but have heard several of these and they are much more than the spec indicates. None of the non-orig parts makes any difference to the awesome sound.... Wish my French was a patch on you English..... good luck Andy
  21. Hi there, as far as I know you can use any Bi-amp head and run the two 2x10s as a 4x10 hi-pass and the 15 as a low pass but NOT all three sections together without a complete re-wire. If you can source an AH 350x or 500x (needs to be the 'x' as it stands for 'X'over) you should be fine... may be cheaper ...sell your amp and buy head.. then sell off such a good cab for so little... or you may only have a small car... then, ah, physics takes over... Good luck anyway. Andy
  22. Have to say, I've always liked John Shukers' basses, but even then this is gorgeous..hope you get a swift sale and sorry you have to part with such a nice bass.... makes me think.....what are the rest of them like????... still poverty has it's benefits...... Good luck Andy
  23. My tuppence (old money albeit the bass is after 1971) worth is that it's a '73, the tuner 'ears' merge into the shaft and don't 'step in' whch they changed in '73... however Fender were (are?) notorious for assemblig instruments from batches of parts produced at different times.... bottom line... who cares!!! gorgeous bass and if i had the pennies i'd be talking which services we were meeting at! Don't worry about slow starts, quality counts... the new owner already knows if they've seen it, if not they will when they clap eyes.... have a good Christmas and relax... or drink too much..) Andy
  24. I tried this when it was 'happy'... did somebody say LOUD!!!! a V8 is supposed to be more (a bit) at 400W, had two V8s, they do what they do but not at this volume.. if you've got the cabs I'd deffo get Marshall to have a look.. it's odd, it's physically big and 'feels' well...'dangerous'... or was that yahoo, bring it on... not recommended for bedroom use Andy
