    Bought as part of a package with another instrument I wanted - thought my daughter would prefer the nylon strings but she’s too used to steel strings to get on with it - I’m a bass player and while it’s lovely (was genuinely surprised by the sound it produces) it’s only going to gather dust now. The original machineheads were non functional so I’ve put some new ones on which seem really solid, as well as a new set of d’addario strings. Had a clean up, fret polish etc so it’s good to go. No case - will Chuck in a clip on tuner as I seem to have amassed a few of these (may need a battery). Marlin, 1980’s - £50 Got embroiled in another bass deal…so this has to go. Can ship in uk for £15 ish - would be at risk of buyer.

    When I was a 14 year old, gathering the proceeds of Car washing, paper round and the sale of a PlayStation… I went to sound control and bought an American Jazz Bass - the other choice was a purple precision with a maple board just like this… Unfortunately, my current car wash, PlayStation and Paper round fund sits at £0 as I have my own teenagers who won’t wash cars or get paper rounds 🤬

    No. I think cheap bass trying to look expensive. not horrific. possible own brand, like Carlos robelli type stuff in US?

    Aww balls. Sold a very similar one a while back and then regretted doing so. My bank says “no” so I’m now going to be annoyed for a bit.

    This is the bass I worked on…

    Not last night - Saturday weird one - but got to see @Dankology and his ace band Dead Tenant We had a mix of our punters and some of the regulars of the venue… We got paid, played well…bit of a weirdness with the venue owner (put it this way, we got a 3 text apology) but not bad.

    I use 2 of these cabs with an old Hartke 5500, honestly a flawless rig (well, the head is a bit tatty like…) Cannot fault the cabs at all.

    It looks really bloody cool. But the price is stoooopid.
  9. AndyTravis
    Oh god. This means I have to buy an acoustic bass again…

  11. AndyTravis
    I’ll happily fund that change by buying your white one 😬

    I can live with that. says 14/10/24 on eBay
  13. AndyTravis
    It had 3 “drinks” looks ace now

    Need Earlpilanz to come back on eBay. Nowhere does the Masonite pickguards…so I’m going to go single ply Matte white.

    Loved these - they were a bit out of my price range in the late 90’s…a Washburn XB100 was my “posh bass” (how little I knew). Anyhow. 10 years ago - had a black one. Sold it because it wasn’t a silver sparkly one. And after missing out on 2 over the last decade… In need of a new pickguard really…but it’s functional…for now

    Shame as well with it being an earlier do. i always struggle because I’m either gigging or one of the little Travs has a thing on; better social lives than we’ve got.

    Playing with @Dankology next Saturday. See if @ped can arrange a Basschat coach trip (bring a packed lunch) Free entry at the newly refurbished Rochdale Empire. Matinee gig. Suits me!
  18. AndyTravis
    Yeah - that was where a couple in their late 40’s sat right in front of the stage. The woman sang along to “Compromise” a song we did a music video for - I thought she was related to the singer. They listen to us daily apparently 🤯

    Last night - Depressingly empty in a massive room. Easy and stress free. just deflating. Tonight - Claustrophobically busy in a corner of a pub. A calamitous gig full of all sorts of things I could moan about. ”best band we’ve seen at Chorley Live” ”that was so much better than all this covers crap” ”we’ve been playing your EP at home and came just to see you” So… weird weekend.
  20. AndyTravis
    Gigged mine twice this weekend - doesn’t half cause a stir with other bass players. Especially in a sea of Ibanez’s and stuff.
  21. AndyTravis
    Playing 2 nights at Chorley Festival next weekend… Weekend after with a fellow basschatter. Would be great to see some BC folk at some of these
  22. AndyTravis
    Oh my lord. They’re ace these - mine is my “go to” instrument… I wish I had some extra money as I’d happily have another…
  23. AndyTravis
    Balls - would be ideal for me, got no bleedin money!
  24. AndyTravis
    I’m currently looking for £500 none of that would bother me for £600 off. I’d take the price of a new pot as a refund…ex demo shouldn’t mean goosed - so that’s bad form… looks lovely
  25. AndyTravis
    Any offer entertained on this now - just sat on the side - I’ve got the same sound covered with another pedal which has another EQ stage built in
