  1. if you haven't already try Bassbros or Bassdirect, i'm sure they'll move this on for £4k
  2. that's the numbers i recall
  3. Big basses!
  4. I have a Burner 4 and it's fabulous, my Japanese Smith is easily comparable to my recently acquired US Smith, and also light too, GLWTS
  5. Thank you, Joe, it play's as good as it looks
  6. Having just picked up something up I’ve been after for a while something should probably go, so 1st up is this Rumour, (I have a stingray advertised too) first of all it has some lacquer cracks (only in the lacquer) I’ve contacted Bow finishing who did a lot of Bernie’s finishing and he said it’s not uncommon and any easy fix, it’s just never bothered me, otherwise is in great condition, gorgeous quilted maple, hardly any fret wear, GB hard case and a custom made ebony ramp, no trades I’m afraid, will post
  7. For those who could be interested, on't see these very often, shame about the 'butchered' bridge🙁 https://reverb.com/uk/item/93341230-ashley-pangborn-custom-bass-guitar-based-on-warlord-model-1985
  8. Ooooo love that when it's screwed down that tight
  9. drilling holes in nice P & Jazz basses for bridge covers that never stay on! (unless custom shop relic)😡 it's personally put me off buying a few basses, double sided tape................🤷‍♂️. 'this won't hang around for long' (of course it always does) the phrase: 'if you know you know' Status Graphite: 'Rob's not making anymore' hysteria
  10. Anniversary, and in the FS section at the moment
  11. Olinta £5000! 🤣 Seriously? The world’s gone mad🤦 how in the world can that ever be better than a 2nd hand US standard or Pro at 900-1000 quid
  12. snotwood........could well be but i like it😀
  13. Very interested in seeing this build, gotta feeling these necks are gunna blow status necks out it the water! Having had status, steinberger & Moses the solid resin core is superior (IMHO)🤷‍♂️
  14. What an incredible bass for the money, shame there's not the Status 'Martin's not making anymore' hysteria as this looks an amazing instrument
  15. Thank you
  16. thanks, would that XL nickel?
  17. anyone? no silks at tuners, maybe Roto's?
  18. That’s a lot of bass for 1200 quid
  19. +1 on the L2 I just personally didn’t like the neck, narrow 38mm nut and quite a deep profile (IMO) I read somewhere Ned made it like that on Stanley Clarke’s advice🤷‍♂️ an absolute design masterpiece, I just sold mine as there’s so many other ‘itch’s to scratch’🤣
  20. Yeh never liked the bridge with the mutes! Wayyyyyyyy to big but after that with the extra bolts is perfect to my eye, that’s gotta be a better design than a ‘bent tin plate’ just screwed in🤷‍♂️ that’s what sets the stingray apart, I’m quoting the tin plate from Fender forums!🤣
  21. i don't understand the thought process behind the bridges on newer & special models with the bridge, what's happened to the bolts that screwed into threaded inserts into the body? it must be better for sustain surely, that to me is a step backwards! (cost cutting)??
  22. Thank you, i may have sourced a supplier also
