  1. hahaha yeah!! i love it!! i did spot this guy when i started to ebay, i just love the way he hides the headstock and makes cheap basses worth £1,000[sub]s[/sub] i wonder if he actually sells these at all?
  2. [center] [color="#0000FF"][url="http://www.gretschguitars.com/gear/index.php?product=G5265&cat1=&cat2=&q=&st=1"]<<<Gretsch Baritone Page + Specs>>>[/url] [/color][/center] Got this baritone guitar just over a year ago (01/12/08) from Dawsons in Liverpool after I found it hard to put down... unfortunitly with having to look for work or work toward an ECDL lately, i havent got the time to pick it up now. I think this guitar can occupy both guitarists and bassists. It is 4 semitones lower than your average guitar (C-C) and has a longer scale neck giving a lovely and natural bass tone but can get crisp highs too. It's a shame to sell this but it does need a better home than it has already. Pretty much NEW condition other than i removed the horrible scratchplate to make it abit more manly and cant find it now (haha). no marks on it what so ever!!! I'm asking for £200 as you can not get a guitar like this around unless you import and perhaps pay the RRP. I'll try and find a spare gig bag, supply it with the spare strings i got for it (elixers) and a levy strap. IF baught before Xmas, i shall include a small goody bag of guitar and christmassy goods. Hit me up if your interested. *Paypal payment preferd & I'll try my best to get FREE P&P depending on where you are.

    [color="#FFFF00"][size=1](First of all I shall update this thread with pictures when I get the chance, please be patient)[/size][/color] [font="Verdana"] Basically I'm looking to sell my Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray5 5 string (inc straplocks and hardcase), just due to the fact i prefer a passive bass guitar. I've never really used the 3band EQ and it seems such a waste me keeping it and not use it to its full potential. Now, this bass is used but good condition: not saying 'new' but it's not far off, condition wise. It does have a few minor scratches, like any bass and a few dings but no belt rash as you can see in the pictures. I am asking of a price of £975 [color="#FF00FF"]*[/color] just for the fact it's one of the best "mass produced" 5 string basses you can get and I payed just abit more than this just over a year ago, so im not letting it get away easily.[/font] Specs: [b]Size:[/b] 13-3/8" wide, 1-3/4" thick, 45-3/4" long (34.0 cm wide, 4.5 cm thick, 116.2 cm long) [b]Weight:[/b] 10 lbs (4.54 kg) - varies slightly [b]Body Wood:[/b] Ash [b]Body Finish:[/b] High gloss polyester [b]Bridge:[/b] Standard - Music Man® chrome plated, hardened steel bridge plate with stainless steel saddles; [b]Pickguard:[/b] Standard - Black.

  4. Good strings but i won't change from my Roto's in future. Nice sounding on my EB MM stingray5, Ibanez SRX 5 string or even on my Squier fretless. Can't put them down at all and especially considering the price but nothing wrong with trying, they could be the strings for you! hope this helped
  5. bass centre any help? all i know is that its in london but im actually from up north so i'm hardly any help but wish you all the best ^_^ [url="http://www.basscentre.com/"]http://www.basscentre.com/[/url]
  6. ......... 'THE' reason as to why Fender braught out a 5 string precision, maybe? dont get me wrong, back in the 70's it would have been ace but looking at it now just makes me want to cry as to how amaizng it would still eb in its origional form i think it would sound mint either EADGC or BEADG, both got thier pro's and cons for a pbass. anyone got the NEW Fender V pbass? lemme know what you think as i want one and got the money at the ready
  7. never had a problem with them other than the fact they stock pretty crap basses I.M.O other than a handful of decent but expenisve models. on the other hand a wide range of great bass amps. bass centre all the way for me though
  8. hahaha at first it seems very pervy and then it turns out its a guy, f***ing disturbing either way you look at it! damn that "recommended for you"
