    [quote name='Mike' post='1041699' date='Nov 29 2010, 10:02 PM']Hi - I have a Bassix "Jazza" in good condition. Blonde wood effect, downsized body, two band eq and volume. Very nice to play, set up for jazz. Not quite so suitable for arco. Not sure if I want to sell really but what sort of deal would you be interested in doing if you were interested? Regards Mike[/quote] Mike, sorry to "cut in" on this thread, but are you interested in a sale? If so, could you drop me a Pm please? Cheers, John

    I'm after an EUB to use as a back up to my ADB. I think I've narrowed it down to the above 2 for my budget (circa £700). I've been offered an as new SWB, with hard case for a good price. I would consider another Bassix, but not sure if budget would cover one. Anyone give me some comparisons, or your experiences of either please, Many thanks, Happy New Year John

    Had a bit of a think on this. I would consider an EUB for £600-700 too. I had a Bassix for a brief time and that was good. Thanks, John

    Some numpty knocked my DB over last night, broke the neck from the "heel" joint and pulled part of the back away. The action was so high you needed a bus to get to the fingerboard, the intonation and tuning were shot and the strings out of alignment with the neck. This all happened after we'd set up and went out of the venue for 20 minutes before first set. Obviously I didn't see it happen, and no-one has admitted to seeing it, let alone knocking it over. Show had to go on, great crowd (apart from the twat who mullered my bass) really up for a bop. Spent 2 x 45 minute sets using every muscle to press strings to board, tuning up half a dozen times through each song whilst playing and singing lovely bouncy little numbers, being told by the other singer to keep smiling Anyway, lots of moral tales out of this I know.......one of which GET INSURANCE!!! too late for me on this one. The bass is off to the repairers tomorrow, and in the mean time I need to buy a back up. Got sod all money, and what I did have was going to buy Gareths' G&L L1500...but not now. So any recommendations for a DB, for £600-£700?? It will more than likely sit at home once my other is repaired, but it would be nice to have a back up if needed. Some love for G4Music carved for bout £750, 2nd hand would be ok, if I could get to pick it up (I'm in west country). Sorry for whingeing tale above, really unhappy today. John

    Dave bought a tuner from me. Prompt payment, no issues. Many thanks! John

    Cheers Dubs. Think I'll stick to the 'Bay, bit of a "wider" audience. The end date could work either way I guess? People bored at home, still hung over, still p@@@sed, or got a bit of cash for Christmas might go for them with a "bugger it" bid. Or everyone's out/away so no one will buy them, or someone will get them for peanuts....but right now I can't sell used volcanic ash to Iceland mate. John

    Good point Mr Fear. Many apologies for putting these in the for sale section. I will ask the mods to move.

    One of these: [url="http://www.djmmusic.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=CBS1"]http://www.djmmusic.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=CBS1[/url] Pictures to come later. Fully functioning stand, but the foam lining on the supports is beginning to wear, although still functional. Free to a good, or bad, home. Pick up, or you pay whatever it costs me to send. John
