  1. This one? Looks super classy, great for black tie gigs! The KT must have a heck of a punch. Can't wait to hear what you think of it. Good score
  2. [quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1356048821' post='1906345'] Fingers crossed, my new baby should be arriving tomorrow! [/quote] Yay! I, meanwhile, have the day off, so will be shooting a review of my VT5 for Youtube......
  3. Couldn't agree more. I have been playing nylon flats on my fretless for about three years now, but when I slapped some La Bellas on my fretted it was like.... SHAZAM!
  4. You could do a lot worse than the Markbass NY151RJ cab I'm selling here on BC....
  5. They have landed, and they are great!
  6. [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1355787934' post='1902881'] it was like coming home - but coming home after someone's kindly built you an extension and a 2-car garage, re-decorated the house, and filled your fridge with beer. [/quote] Quote of the week for me so far! Enjoy the new bass, it looks great and sound like you've got a great one
  7. Just got a [url="http://www.neckheavy.com/index.html"]"Heads Up"[/url] strap from the USA, but have since sold the bass I was going to use it for. It really does work, and you can use the lead weights to get the balance just right, and because they are at the back of the bass you don't feel they add weight at all, just balance! I don't want to make much of a loss on the strap, so asking for £45 (I paid £50) for it. I will cover the postage, which given the lead included will be substantial! Cheers Gareth
  8. Have you popped the scratchplate off to check no wires are loose?
  9. Hi guys Just to let you know I have just had a tracking note from DHL to say the picks are due for delivery! Will aim to get them out to you over the next couple of days if they do actually make it to me today. Cheers gareth
  10. [quote name='UncleMeat' timestamp='1355681164' post='1901320'] If you don't wear ear plugs when you perform then it is probably your ears. [/quote] This.
  11. I played this bass yesterday. It's really nice. Very well put together, feeling surprisingly strudy for an acoustic bass, and lovely tone.
  12. Looks amazing Rick. Whoever does your aging for you is a god
  13. Now that is an [b]incredible [/b]deal for some superb gear. Those cabs are so good.
  14. I have just completed a trade+cash with Clarky. Faultless the whole way through, superb communication, instant payment. The man's a BC legend!
  15. Hi guys Just had notification that the picks have shipped, so hopefully we'll have them by the weekend! Cheers Gareth
  16. Very nice. I'm tempted to get one of these as my next Sandberg, exactly the same as yours but with a maple fingerboard. How are you finding the all passive setup, especially the "secret switch" for quick tone changes? Cheers Gareth
  17. Assuming it's genuine, and who really knows, that's a heavily modded and de-fretted P bass. The only original parts are likely to be the (stripped?) body, neck, tuners & screws, neck plate & screws, strap buttons & screws. Everything else looks to have been replaced.
  18. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1355045209' post='1893198'] Holy crap! Good luck with that. [/quote] +1 to that
  19. [quote name='iBudd' timestamp='1355043619' post='1893180'] Hell's teeth I nearly missed this - haven't been checking this thread because I've been dealing with the surprise that I'm about to be evicted which is as lovely as it sounds. Please put me down for the last 2. I may be almost homeless, but I'm going to play bass! And well done walbassist for struggling more manfully with the site than I did! [/quote] Glad there were still some available. I'l drop you a PM.

  21. [quote name='Legion' timestamp='1354986084' post='1892681'] This thread has moved faster than I've been able to keep up with - I still want a couple if thats possible please [/quote] No worries, two more is just fine. I'll PM you now.
  22. Okay folks, so now we have: Owen x 4 Me x 2 Discreet x 2 Barkin x 2 Charic x 2 ---------------- Bigjohn x 2 Oopsdabassist x 2 Lenny B x 2 [color=#FF0000]Still available x 6[/color] Updated to include Lenny B's "order".h Cheers Gareth
  23. [quote name='bigjohn' timestamp='1354971766' post='1892466'] I'd be up for a couple if theres still any going, or become free, or if anyone wants to order some more? [/quote] OK, and I'll hold off ordering until we hear from iBudd, Matt P and Legion too.
  24. Okay, that's all 12 spoken for! I'll PM everyone to get payment up front through Paypal if that's okay.
