Haway man Andy, pack in wrapping pressies and crack on with this will ya! I'm getting withdrawal symptoms here... π

Met Dave today to sell him a bass, lovely fella, great socially distanced craic, we both had our hand sanitiser at the ready! Great communication throughout and a pleasure to meet a fellow local BCr, who happens to play in a well known local band. I wish all sales went like this, local and done in two days! π

+1 for the ZS10's @ped I bought them as back up for my UE Triple-Fi 10 IEMS, and IMO they are nothing short of amazing for the price. I'd seen @EBS_freaks mentioning of the ZS10's on here and bought mine from Amazon, it included two years insurance for them too, IIRC around Β£10 which included damage - so for Β£40 odd they were well worth the money IMO.

Anything specific Tom? High mass bridge, lightweight tuners, maple neck/fingerboard, brass vol/tone knobs, Paulownia bodywood, I seem to recall the pickup was branded but can't remember what. All plays and sounds well. Anything else I've missed just shout up ππΌ great bass for a young 'un as it's so lightweight, and equally for anyone struggling with heavier bass weight in general. This has been in a case behind a settee unused for years so time to let go. I'll weigh it when I get chance π

The inspiration behind The BlazerRay, absolutely amazing what Andy did to Mick's bass, and those Simms make it extra special. Love that bass β€οΈ

Completed a great buying experience with Dave today, culminating in a round trip to beautiful Biggar, his home in South Lanarkshire. Communication prior to travelling was fantastic, a 40 minute phone call, several texts, including comprehensive photographs, written details, emails, measurements and even more photographs. Detailed route on how to find him - just in case the satnav played up π - he pulled out all the stops to reassure me the trip was going to be worthwhile. It was π Brilliant craic when we got there, he had even sanitised every flightcase prior to our arrival. Brilliant π Deal done at a safe distance with an absolute gent, deal with complete confidence, this guy is a first class Basschat seller and a credit to the BC community ππΌ Resist the starshaped Warwick Dave! πππ

Thought I'd update this thread with some visible pics as the @Clarky ones appear to have gone. Interesting to see this was once Kev Hoppers bass, presumably he commissioned it. I love it, it's a beautifully crafted bass with Nordstrand pups encased in ebony surrounds with matching ramp and knobs and it to my ears, sounds great. One of my mates calls it my Salvador Dali bass

Yup, anything with more than four strings does the same to me π

More incredible skill from Andy, superb! ππΌ
