  1. Hi there. Did this go in the end?
  2. Sorry about the picture. Not sure what happened there!
  3. Hi there. Thanks for letting back to me. Is it strung with the 'rubber' strings? I couldn't tell from the photo. Not a deal breaker. Also, with no back panel, like some other Kala UBasses, how do you restring it????! Thanks Andy
  4. Hi there. Lovely looking little bass. I can’t find it on the web. What’s the difference between this and the U-bass? Also I can’t find a ‘mini’ rumbler. Is it a discontinued model? Thanks Andy.
  5. Hi there. Somehow missed this. Is the pedal still available by any chance? Thanks Andy.
  6. Hi there. I’m looking to use this as a backup as you were. I’ve an early (15 years?) MB 2x10 combo with what I think is a de-badged Little Mark head. I use it with a 2x10 extension and it’s amazing. It’s always been reliable, but recently I’ve read loads of horror stories of MB failing. If (heaven forbid) it did fail, I’m hoping to be able to sit the LM III on top and just match the connections using the combo’s internal speaker and the extension in the same way. Does this sound feasible???
  7. Hi Dan. You say it’s strung E-C at the mo. Is it as simple as tuning it down to B-G or would I need to buy a whole new set of strings? Sorry if this is a daft question. But I’ve never dabbled with uprights before.
  8. Thanks Dan. Great video. It does sound very ‘upright’. Closer than most EUBs I’ve heard so far. Gonna go away and do some serious thinking. And a bit of maths….
  9. Hi Dan. Thanks for the reply. A video would be great! I’m sure other browsing Basschatters would appreciate it too. Cheers!
  10. Hi there. Oakwood is a new one on me. Looks lovely. Am considering a NS WAV4 but this looks interesting. As EUBs go, how much like a upright does it sound? Do you know of any clips on YT to give an idea? Also is it ‘plug and play’ ie jack straight into amp. Thanks!
  11. Hi all. I actually ended up buying this bass. It was sold to someone on Bass Chat who PMd me to say that he loved it but unfortunately was going to re-sell it immediately. He was a great bloke. More than fair. So I was lucky enough to pick it up. And I have to say, it plays as beautifully as it looks. Should this post be resolved/removed now?
  12. That's brilliant! Thanks. I'll get looking!
  13. Ahh...I thought they looked like DiMarzio. As far as I know (I've never taken the back plate off) the electronics are stock. Unless whoever put the EMG on changed something. I'd like to get it as close to original look as possible so a set of creme DP126 would look great. And they seem to be available too. If the pickups don't need to be active, all the better. Now to find suitable machine heads, as the previous owner replace the 'Hercules' with Schallers. Then knobs. Although I doubt the original Ibanez ones are still around. As for 3d printing, I wouldn't know where to start! Big thanks everyone on your help with this!
