  1. Hmm. “Ski Jump” translates to £300 worth of piddling about. And work on frets means another £100. not the £2900 case queen… Although general condition looks ace
  2. Mike bought an Ashdown from me - and despite the couriers apparent best efforts to kill it… He’s now enjoying it. lovely guy!
  3. Don’t think it was sold…think it hadn’t sold, and the owner took it back. In fact - I think it went up for sale here. They need to update their website xxx
  4. Yeah. No wonder they’ve not replied…
  5. Well. I’ve just messaged them…
  6. https://www.themusicinn.co.uk/bass-guitars/electric-bass/yamaha-bb-2005-pre-owned
  7. Oooh that purple bongo 😘
  8. Well, I think that’s the one Al Krow ended up with - it was on commission sale for ages.
  9. It’s a shame because it’d be a winner for me, a sort of Yamaha Spector LX. I’ll find one eventually - would love a sunburst one.
  10. If it was under £500, I’d invest in a nice translucent refinish of some format… But…at £825, he can whistle.
  11. I know someone’s after one of these - hang fire…
  12. Anyone got a butterfly sticker 🥴
  13. See, I like this recent Instagram post…but really - looks a bit like an Ibanez Sr300 (albeit hand crafted in USA)
  14. He’s just offered it to me at £825 with the following taglines… ”order one from Japan at £1100 if you’d prefer” and ”I’m in no rush to sell, try again if it’s still here next month…” I won’t. To either.
  15. A bb1100s A later model about 1988/9. £500 is reasonable; it looks well.
  16. New? Yeah about that. Although I sold an ex demo one in a shop for about £500 (should’ve bought it…) Used I think £500-£700 would be right. if it was immaculate (which it isn’t) or the rarer black/burst/white) then fair enough. it’s dinged all around the jack and has buckle rash on the belly contour…so it’s £600 maximum in my head. I’ve already offered £650 and that’s been declined so…that’s me out, and still in the gear abstinence thread 😂
  17. It’s on my watch list. I’ve made 2 offers - seller seems to want basically what they’ve put as starting bid… which, let’s be Frank…is too much
  18. If I were in a position…I’d eschew the fancy woods etc…
  19. (tongue firmly in cheek - think he borrowed this Fodera)
  20. I think it’s more about affordability. Does owning a Ferrari or Lamborghini make you a skilled driver? Not necessarily. But if you can afford a Lamborghini, would you drive a 15 year old Ford Focus? Probably not.
  21. I’m not good enough to play a Squier Bronco - never stopped me 😂
  22. Yeah absolutely, I had the walnut topped version with the central maple block for about a month - I had to sell it to cover some unexpected costs (a separation). Mucho regret (not about the separation 🤣)
  23. Unbelievable. been looking for another burner recently… double checked tonight, see if there are any,,, And none have shown up. log back in to basschat…and this beauty pops up. I fear the import costs would be huge. off to cry.
  24. I’m a kitchen sink kind of player. Then I strip it back, as time goes on - I’m playing less busy stuff, but I tend to play chords etc to fill sounds out so guitarist can play accent lines etc. @lee650says I play guitar bass.
