  1. Bought it new July last year from Mansons in Exeter. It is in immaculate condition and comes with the original packaging, instruction manual and (unused) kettle lead. I will take pictures tomorrow in daylight. In the meantime, price includes UK postage. Sorry, cash sale only.
  2. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  3. These are no use to me now so I'm happy to let go for p&p - say £3.
  4. I bought this in December with the intention of running under my TKS 1x15. Unfortunately, it doesn't match in terms of size and, although both cabs sound great individually, together something isn't quite right. It is in the same condition as it was when I received it but I have put one of the Barefaced replacement handles on. I paid £375 delivered and that's what I'd like to recoup, so to be clear, postage is included. Sorry, no trades. I have Andy's permission to resurrect his advert and here it is:
  5. These strings would suit anyone with a Chowny SWB-1 that has the facility to string through.
  6. Having a sort out and came across a brand new set of 45-100 D'Addario Nickel Medium scale strings (4 string set) I bought them for the Chowny SWB-1 that I had a while back as they were the factory fitted brand. £12 including p&p
  7. Just bought a very nice cab from Andy. Not only has he clearly looked after it during his ownership, but his packing for courier transport was absolutely incredible. The cab was exactly as described and Andy kept me updated during the p&p process. A top Basschatter....
  8. I went down this route when I had a shoulder problem and the bass I found most comfortable was a Chowny SWB-1. It's a short scale so an easy stretch to the low F and, at 8lbs, was quite comfortable for a couple of hours on a strap.
  9. I've has this bass from new (2017) and it is immaculate. It's the Scott Whitley model made in India. The colour is vintage blue according to Chowny's website but it looks like daphne blue. The fretboard is ebony and the fretwork is to a very high standard. 38mm nut width. The neck itself is slender and narrow and is very fast and easy to navigate. It's a typical JJ pickup configuration with selector switch. It's passive, but the natural sound is quite modern. Further down the listing are links to two videos which give an idea of how versatile these basses are. The sale includes a £100 Gator case that is an almost perfect fit, and p&p. Retail these are £395 and £100 for the case. Asking price a reasonable [b]£345 delivered.[/b] Sorry, NO trades; I have just spent a huge amount on a Martin Sims Enfield so could do with the cash!

  10. You mean like this: https://youtu.be/xDrR6SGoNdw
  11. That was me. I asked the receiver to double check my measurements and then the matter was dropped once I had explained to Parcel2go. A bit naughty and the moral of the story is to photograph any parcel you are sending, especially with a tape alongside showing the various dimensions.
  12. I have 3 sets of brand new Elites Stadium 45-105 4 string. £17.50 inc p&p or happy to do a deal for all three. Alternatively, swap for equivalent 40-100s
  13. This is a rather good version of an Adele song: [url="https://youtu.be/2F_fg4QrBvI"]https://youtu.be/2F_fg4QrBvI[/url]
  14. I have just received an additional charge from Parcel2Go for a parcel I sent last month. They are claiming that I owe an extra £9.50 because it was larger that I stated on my original form. Now I'm 99% certain I didn't muck this up because I measured at least three times to be sure but I can't access the original form to see if I'm correct. Should I pay this or ignore it?

    feedback for Deedee

    Just sold a bass to Dan. A very straightforward chap to deal with and I concur with all the previous positive posts on this feedback thread.
  16. This is the second Stingray I have owned in this colour, known as translucent Gold. It's an ash body. I recently had it dated by the Ernie Ball forum and it is a 2007 model. I bought it from a shop close to where I live and it was for sale on behalf of a guy who was moving abroad. He had not played it for some considerable time evidently and it showed. After I got it home, I cleaned and oiled the fretboard, polished the frets, put new strings on, and have been really enjoying it for the past 8 months. Weight is 4.3kg or 9.5lbs. Overall condition is very very good. There is one small ding on the top horn as can just about be seen in the pic but I have to point out a slight anomaly in the finish just between the bridge and control plate. I didn't even pick this up when I bought the bass, and you cannot see it from a couple of feet away, but it can be seen in the close-up pic below. It appears to be either excess colour or topcoat. As I say, it never bothered me (am I am fastidious about these things) and the rest of the instrument is very clean. Soundwise, it is every bit a Stingray but quite smooth by comparison to some I have played. It is a perfect match for the Aguilar Tone Hammer 500 and TKS 1x15 I also own and is currently strung with Ernie Ball nickels. There is a set of 40-95 Cobalt flats included - had them on for a couple of hours play time, if that. Also includes EB branded hard case. [b]£800 includes UK p&p[/b]. No trades I'm afraid, Paypal gift or bank TR at cash on collection from TA6.
