  1. North East, I courier stuff to him.
  2. like this shade...
  3. Happy to send you Daves number x
  4. it’s a bit of a weird grain. Also it’s had a chip on the back so would show the filler/repair/graft.
  5. Ocean turquoise metallic and Shell pink...🤷🏻‍♂️
  6. Just a general discussion... I have a bass Ive taken the paint off. Looking for suggestions on what could look well with the gold hardware. I was thinking Metallic Purple, Or Dark Metallic Green. Open to suggestions - pictures welcome...
  7. The bass in question is now sold 👍🏼 Wonder if it was to someone on here?
  8. For Metallics, pastels and Bursts I’d use Dave. For Sparkles (big flake) Id use Sims - Dave does big metallic but not Flea flake type stuff.
  9. Done - he’s ace, did my blue miller and will be doing a Yamaha for me.
  10. Will send you a link on messenger mate x
  11. Nice looking thinline Washburn bass - I’ve never seen one. Id like to get it but it’s way too far for me. Would be cool if a basschatter got it. £40 or near offer? Gotta be worth a shot? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/313811653523668/
  12. Spotted that. £850 start...
  13. I keep taking this (we’ve had about 4 rehearsals now)
  14. I’m stuck between green and the purple
  15. More sanding today... nearly all trace of red gone.
  16. It has the sweepable mid? Ive always known it to be referred to as the ne-1 preamp. They sound great for the money they go for, even if if they were 3 times the price they’re good.
  17. Bah - no dice today. Up until the left hand side of the body, the grain was nearly uniform enough for a natural finish
  18. Boo. was hoping for a wonderfully uniform piece of nato/mahogany so I could change my mind... another colour keeps on creeping into my conscience...
  19. Pending
  20. If you’ve got a multimeter and 10 minutes spare, for sure
  21. Bought this on a whim. I’m going to clean it all up and tweak it - also will be wearing some better strings. the good... It’s a decent looking bass, Korean made - early 2000’s. It’s got a 35” scale - decent B. Emg HZ pickups. Nice Neck Profile. Great colour. East Preamp (U-Retro 2006) - read on... Passive tone is pleasant. The bad... Full disclosure. Preamp does not work. Worst case - the east knobs look fab. John East thinks it could be down to battery leads - I would look into it but...read on. Lots of little bumps and nicks - nothing catastrophic. Has an “odd” tuner on treble side - I might have a matching one in a draw - I will update. Bridge has a little “lift” at the string anchor points...but I’ve seen this on plenty of basses. Maybe 0.5mm at worst. I spoke to Kiogon who can make a passive loom for £60 based upon Les Paul VVTT with a series/parallel and pickup selector to fill the switch holes - just an idea if the Pre is totally dead. Anyhow - it’s here if anyone fancies a project. If you can resolve the preamp issue - it’s a £200+ pre. If you’re looking for a workhorse 5, here it is. Postage possible...would prefer collection. I will do all the muck removal tonight or tomorrow. I wanted to have this for e-c tuning, but I have an ongoing BB project and no spare time. 😉😘
  22. I didn’t in the end - I’ve a 350f I’m modifying. The 450 is basically a passive 1100s - which is no bad thing. If you fall out with it - I’ll make room. 😉
  23. Love that - wish he’d have posted when I asked. what a beauty
