I bought a bass from David this week, it's been great dealing with him. He kindly slung the bass with flat and roundwounds to make sound clips when I was interested, and packed it and arranged delivery exactly as I'd hoped. It was great to chat music with him too, a lovely bloke. 

Just bought an Empress compressor from Bruce. Arrived quickly in immaculate condition as advertised, an ideal transaction. Cheers Bruce!

Might make an offer of a tenner, just to counterbalance the cheek of it 💸

Blown away by those clips, top quality playing!

Do you have any of the bass on its own?

Not a strictly a Luthier but RussAudio, who is just outside Camborne, comes highly recommended by everyone down here. 

 

He seems to be able to fix almost anything.

Thank you @obbm!

Hey folks. I need someone with tip top electrical knowledge. 
 

I have a custom Stambaugh bass I had made a few years back. Gorgeous construction, but the electronics are complicated (4 band, piezo and a graphtech midi system all fighting for space) and I’ve had problems with it. Unwanted noise, batteries draining, all sorts. Something’s awry in there somewhere. 
 

I’m in Devon, any recommendations for experts in the South West much appreciated. Thanks! 

Gorgeous. Love the design of the saddles. GLWTS

So good to have tone clips! Sounds amazing, and nice playing @Quatschmacher

What a stunning colour! GLWTS

That neck is bonkers! GLWTS

Hubba hubba!

What a beaut. GLWTS

I had a chance to play this when I bought a cab from Marc recently, it’s an absolute beast and it’s in fantastic condition. GLWTS!

Steely Dan - Reelin' In The Years

 

 

I had the pleasure of playing with Elliot Randall many years ago. Bloody lovely and (of course) a wonderful player!

I’ve been rediscovering my love of Pat Metheny’s earlier work. James is such an incredible tune.

I absolutely love those extra 2 frets below the E. So much cooler than a detuner. GLWTS!

So cool, I’d grab this if I could. GLWTS

I have a fretted and a fretless ubass, they sound excellent amplified. As others have mentioned, the very short scale takes some getting used to, the standard strings too. They’re both extremely bendy and quite sticky. I found I developed a feel for them pretty quickly though, and I have a blast playing them. 

Seems most folks either want Scott to dull it down, or expect him to make the greatest fusion record ever. I think what he’s doing is pretty great and I hope he gets more young people into fusion, that would be cool.

Mick helped facilitate a recent sale in tricky circumstances. As others here have said, he’s a gent and clearly a great pal to have. Cheers Mick 

Any feedback from purchases, trades, sales etc

Beedster is doing you a favour suggesting a new thread if you want to raise the price. I’d suggest dropping the attitude too. 

What a beast!

That finish is really beautiful. GLWTS

Haha no problem

That’s really lovely. In the unlikely event that it’s available in a couple of months I’ll gladly take it off your hands!

Have you got any audio clips?
