Hi. Is this still for sale and whereabouts are you in the UK? Thanks

Here’s my Electric Upright Bass stand for sale – it’s a really well made stand and very strong. A good piece of kit by Konig & Mayer and in “as new” condition. I no longer have an electric upright so it’s got to go. See the link below for full specification, and the price which is £108 if you order a new one from Amazon. Konig & Meyer 14160-000-55 920 to 1620mm Stand for Electric Double Bass - Black : Amazon.co.uk: Musical Instruments & DJ I’m in Royton, near Oldham, Lancashire, just 5 minutes off junction 20 of the M62 Selling for £60. Buyer collects, or I can pack it and send it by EVRI – it weighs 2.6 kilos, so a packed weight of under 5 kilos will cost £8 tracked and insured for UK the mainland, but you’d have to pay me first, of course.

3/4 double bass "Tatra by Rosetti – Stradivarius Model" made at the famous Cremona Factory (now known as Strunal Schönbach) in Luby, Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) some time in the mid 1980s, I understand. Upright bridge to nut string length 40”/101.5cm. It’s in really good condition – only a couple of minor scuffs to the finish either side of the edge of the upper bout. Comes complete with soft case/”gig bag”, and stand. I’ve fitted the bass with the Presto |Nylon Tape Wound strings which feel great and have the look of old school “gut” strings. (The original old steel tape wound ones are in the Presto box and are included as spares). It hardly gets played at all now, so it’s up for sale. I’m in Royton, near Oldham, Lancs, just 5 minutes off Junction 20 of the M62.

Top man Danny - great cabinet, thanks, Geoff

OK well I want a single 15 cab so this will be great. My mobile is 0778 070 6991 - giv me a cal please or text me and I'll ring you back to save your phone minutes. I'm in Oldham near Manchester so its about 50 odd miles to get over to you - would you maybe meet up during the day, part way? For some reason I'm not getting notified of replies - I would have been back on to you sooner!

Hi - Have you still got the 15" cab up for sale, please?

PRICE DROP TO £25. I’ve just discovered this pack of used double bass strings amongst all my odds and ends.I got these with a double bass several years ago – the bass has long gone, but these were in my box of bits. Now the pack says “Pirastro”, but I can’t be sure if they are another set that were taken off the bass as the new strings were put on. I put this on the EUB general forum and the opinion I have had so far is that they are possibly Jarger Mediums. Using my trusty micrometer, the gauges are 50 thou for the G, 65 for the D, 80 for the A, and 107 for the E. I’ve put them up for sale on the site, I don’t want to “mis-describe” them so I've headed the advert "unknown band". Price drop to £25 plus £2.50 postage (for UK mainland addresses), as this seems a pretty reasonably low price for a full set of decent secondhand DB strings, regardless of whatever brand of strings they may be.
