Yup that looks like what I'm after. Burnham on sea is a little further west, but he may very well pass nearby on his way. I'm abroad on tour at the mo, but back next week. Are you prepared to wait that long for arrangements to be made? John

Ok, swap didn't happen, so this is still here.

Very interested in this, looking forward to seeing pics. Where in the uk are you?

[quote name='Rasta' post='1229763' date='May 13 2011, 10:47 AM']I am in the same situation but need a P neck if you fancy swapping either necks or even basses as i quite like natural? I have a really nice Mighty might Jazz neck with 70's Precision logo on a P body, Fender Jap elecs with cream vintage PU covers & a funky capacitor inside to give vintage tones - not sure on the body, possibly Squire but its a relic'd sunburst-very cool and 70's looking. Anyhow i prefer P necks so could swap either necks or the whole bass if your interested?[/quote] Sounds cool Rasta. Probably more interested in a whole bass swap, in case the neck doesn't quite fit. Chuck some piccies up? Or PM me and I'll give you an email address to send some pics to. John

Bump for a trade on any of the following: P bass special SB-2 Tribby Jazz bass This is an exceptionally nice bass, if you like P necks, I think you'll like this.

[quote name='geoffbyrne' post='1228323' date='May 12 2011, 01:22 AM']I might be interested in the Fostex, but not the sequencer - might you split? G.[/quote] Hi G, I guess I could. £50 posted. Cheers, John

Oh my! I do admire Alan's work. My birthday next week, I wonder if I'll be PM'ing you on Tuesday morning! John

Still here bump for a very sweet sounding guitar.

THIS HAS NOW GONE Prosebass headless 4 string offered as a trade for a 5 string. It was made to my specification by Paul Rose of Prosebass, for a tour I have just finished. Headless 4 string, natural Spanish Cedar, Maple neck, Rosewood board, passive 2 mini buckers. Lightweight, but good mass to the body. ABM hardware. The pickups produce a surprising amount of volume and the configuration is 2 volume pots, with coil tap, but no tone control. I have found this offered me plenty of tonal variation. 34" scale, 53mm bridge spacing, dual action truss rod. Just over 3kg weight. This is my only electric gig. I end up in interesting places in the world, and get taken care of very well, so am happy to keep the gig. However, the artist has changed keys of many songs for this last tour and decided she wanted notes below E, so I ended up detuning this for the 10 dates. I can't afford a 5 string as an extra bass, so this is offered up as a trade or sale. If I had to sell, then I'd want £500 for it. Please feel free to have a try, I'm in Dorset. Will drive for a meet as far as Bournemouth, Bristol, Exeter(ish), Basingstoke(ish) Any questions, please feel free to PM, or call me. Number through PM. John

On the basis that if a bass hangs on my wall and isn't used, then it is surplus. I am offering this BB605 in wine red. Good condition, good all rounder and typical solid Yamaha build. I've been playing the 4 string version for 7 years now, so bought the 5'er. These are highly rated amongst the Yamaha lovers, but otherwise go a little "under the radar". £180 posted, firm. I am in Dorset, for a try out, or will post well packed in gig bag and a box.

[quote name='alyctes' post='1217418' date='May 2 2011, 12:17 PM']I wish I could justify spending the money, this looks like a sweet machine. Anyhow, you might want to edit the thread title for the new price?[/quote] Indeed, thanks for pointing that out. John

Last [s]hump[/s] bump before withdrawing (oo-er!!) [size=4]£300 collected, or + pp[/size].

PM'd

[quote name='Willl' post='1215028' date='Apr 29 2011, 03:42 PM']Is this bass being used structurally... In photo 5 it appears it's doubling (see what I did there) as an acro jack?[/quote] Basically, when this goes to Deaver, my porch collapses!

How'd you get on with this Clarky? I've just recorded with it and the engineer loved it. He was resistant at first, preferring 2 mics, but he ended up mixing both. John

Yes, sorry guys. Posted in too many threads, will update accordingly. john
