    Doesn't it...? 🤔

    Great post! (Almost) saved me the bother of replying...😄 Just one more brand to chuck into the mix - G&L! For your budget you could probably get a used USA model, but to be honest I'm not sure it's necessary. The Tribute series M2500 and L2500 are fantastic basses, not just "for the money" but at any price point. With a budget of around a grand you might also be lucky enough to find a used ACG - beautiful handmade British (Scottish to be exact) instruments with mouth-watering spec levels.

    Lee sold me his Stingray. A lovely bass at a very good price. Extremely prompt delivery and excellent Comms throughout. Highly recommended 😎

    Neil bought my ACG. He paid extremely quickly (indeed, a week before he got the bass!) and was a pleasure to deal with at every stage. He's a lovely fella and it was good to meet him (at a service station on the M6!). Enjoy the bass and take care 😎

    I like the look of this, but I'm a bit clueless when it comes to the various incarnations of Stingrays... 🤔 Does this model sound like a "real" 'Ray? Does it have the characteristic chunky neck? 💜 It seems to offer phenomenal value for money, but is there a catch?
  9. Conan
    Now £1000. A grand for a grand bass 😎 Trade value remains £1250.

    You need four 😎😉

    Totally agree! It's a real shame that this beauty is mostly unplayed at the moment. It deserves a much better owner (and player) than me 💜

    Ben, or the bass? 🤔😆

    Tomasz bought a set of Tonerider J pickups from me. Prompt payment and easy, friendly Comms. A very painless deal and a good guy 😎
  14. Conan
    Even though I'm trying to sell an ACG, I'm sorely tempted by this one! 😎💜
  15. Conan
    Why not just give it away? 🥺💜 Anyone who plays this bass will instantly understand how vastly underpriced it is 😱

    Same here. Incredible what they're going for these days... 😎
  17. Conan
    That headstock arrangement is really odd! 🤔
  18. Conan
    The simple answer to this question is "yes" 😆🙄 It would seem that I have muddied the waters in trying to clear them... 🤔😉

    After a bit more research, it would seem that this bridge is slightly adjustable. This version is set at 18+/-1.5mm. However, the same model is available with 19mm (or even 21mm!) spacing. I guess it would be a straight swap. If you picked one up second hand and sold the existing bridge, it would only cost a few quid... https://hipshotproducts.com/products/5-string-a-style-bass-bridge?variant=31567451400 You're welcome 😎😆

    Not sure. Not because of the bridge, but because it would bring the B and G strings very close to the edge of the fingerboard (I think).

    Simon sold me a set of Wizard Hammers. Very easy Comms and a very smooth deal. They arrived quickly, well packaged, and addressed with some of the nicest handwriting you will ever see! 😎
  22. Conan
    It's set at 18mm, but the bridge is adjustable so could allow it to go slightly wider. I wouldn't though, because it feels perfect for me as it is, and I prefer a wide spacing. It feels very like my four string Fenders, and I have sausage fingers! 😆
  23. Conan
    The first one was mine, wasn't it? 😆
  24. Conan
    Heartbreaking how underappreciated these beauties are 😱🤨🙄😭

    Aye, Geddy always possessed memory and awareness. It was the "shape and form" side of things that he exerted limited control over. Vaguely Canadian. We all have our crosses to bear I suppose 🤔
