    Perfect style of bass playing on that too

    Final 4 string left of the ongoing cull. I’ve had this for 20 years, and was bought as a graphite necked banger bass- that I’ve used for maybe two gigs that were a possibility of being dodgy ones. Guy I bought it off, said it was a 70’s jazz body, that he got a Vongunton neck out on, when he was in Germany in the RAF. Tuners are big ol reverse tune jobbies. Got Rob Green at Status to take out the knackered electrics out, and replace with one of his 2 band circuits. He also put on one of his bridges. The humbuckers were, to quote him, ‘super output humbuckers, as the output of them was huge. There’s a buzz on the E string from around frets 12 to 15. So the neck isn’t super straight. This, I knew when I got it, but it was super functional for what I needed it for- banger or emergency back up. The batteries had corroded, when I checked last week, so it will require a new wire threading through to the battery compartment- 18 volt system. It’s quite neck heavy- may be the tuners, neck, or a combination of both. Served me well, for what it was needed for, but will no longer be needed by me. Scales are showing 3.5 kgs, then 8lbs- with me on and off with and without bass. But I think they must be wrong, as it feels a lot heavier than that- just trying to be honest here. It’s got a wooden FB on it, so someone could get that replaced which may sort out the slight anomaly with the neck. Or you could break it for the parts. I have absolutely nothing to pack this up with, so please don’t ask- as I’m already waiting in for someone’s courier as I write this. So cash on pick up please. It’ll come in an old Peavey double gig bag, that I rolled with for years- not the best, but perfectly functional. Any questions, just ask away. Thanks

    I think we all know someone who’d carry out that mod

    I did a handful of function band gigs with a keyboard player like that .

    First few minutes is about lending gear out - spot on

    I need to contact the guy who I’ve got this on hold for. He supposed to be gigging near me this month. So could yet be ‘off’ hold

    There’s more than a few stories of Norman Watt Roy trashing support band bass rigs, by playing too loud- then just walking away. Yet people still say what a diamond bloke he is. Also used to regularly do a bike rally, and my mate had the same Eden rig as me. They booked a well known rock bass player as a headline, with his side band. He had no idea, and nearly blew it up. Pros eh?

    My mate has just sunk loads into a Bose pro8 set up. Used it last night with the ska band and said it was feeding back all over the shop. I’m playing with him next weekend. I’m not sure they’re man enough for a band. He can still change them as has a trial period through PMT. Anyone else used the Bose pro8?

    So what are the differences between the Modulus Flea and the Modulus necked Stingray I sold you?
  13. E sharp
    Which 212 Berg model is that?
  14. E sharp
    Picking up an old thread , but just wondering if anyone since is now using one . Now got 2 really nice basses , and looking at the idea of selling stuff and trying one of these .
  15. E sharp
    Pedulla has retired I believe. And yes, I’ve just got to lower the action how I like it on the Modulus, and I’ll be sorted. It was up for sale on here last year some time. Did a google search, contacted him and took a while for me to sell stuff to have the funds
  16. E sharp
    Picked up the Modulus today. Had to sell two MusicMans, a combo and loads of pedals. Bitten the bullet selling the 4’s, to force myself to stick with playing 5 strings - the only way I was going to do it. Dingwall 5P will do the Northern Soul band. Modulus will do the function band deps, and the Bogart was my ‘Folly’ bass.
  17. E sharp
    Modulus QW5- just bought this today. Yet to check, but this is the 21mm spacing I think
  18. E sharp
    I think that's the nicest one of these that I've seen to date .
  19. E sharp
    So regarding what you’ve said, is it in the same ballpark of the Aguilar DB750/1?
  20. E sharp
    Ooo. You see these come up often
  21. E sharp
    Sold Lee one of my pedals . Straightforward and super easy communications . Prompt payment - even though I said I was in no rush . A gent .
  22. E sharp
    There was one a few years ago, and it took an absolute age to sell. As did the one at The Gallery. As good as they might be, I don’t think they’re that popular

    The early USA Eden WT amps were great. I’m still rolling with a WT400 (the micro amp of its day), and bar the Aguilar DB751 I had, it has royally pi**ed over everything I’ve tested out.

    It’s on hold currently for someone who’s coming to pick it up. I can let you know if it doesn’t sell
