  1. No, pretty sure its 2 coil taps (dual sound switches). [url="http://www.matsumoku.org/models/ariaproii/bass/sb/sb.html"]http://www.matsumoku.org/models/ariaproii/bass/sb/sb.html[/url]
  2. When I said no trades, I mean none apart from a Fender Jazz Bass Special MIJ in black or white....
  3. NOW SOLD. THANKS. One well-loved bass for sale... Its a 1984 Matsumoku Aria Pro II SB Elite-II in beautiful translucent black. Its a bit of a rarity as they mostly came in padouk red or oak. • 2 MB II Double coil pickups • 5-ply maple/walnut transmit neck • 24 fret, rosewood board • Slimmer neck than the SB-1000 • Vol, tone, pu selector, 2 coil taps There's a small bit of wear on the edge near the strap button that I've marked on one of the pics, but that's it. Great condition, all original, plays beautifully. Comes with suitable retro burgundy leatherette gig bag. Looking for £500, I'm not looking for trades on this one. Metallica and Duran Duran fans should love this. I do.
  4. Have a BUMP on me. I was the previous owner of Retroman's gorgeous LP bass, those babies are real beauties, I'm just more of a Fender/Musicman guy....
  5. If anyone else feels like moving on a Jazz Bass Special then I'll be a willing recipient... a nice full black model would be ideal Cheers!

  8. [quote name='AndyMartin' post='834683' date='May 11 2010, 08:46 PM']This goes straight into a Stingray 4 with no mods except soldering 2 wires. It's as new except that I've fitted it and then removed it. It wasn't really the sound I'm looking for. It's a replica of the Pre Ernie Ball pickup and is supposed to replicate that sound. Also a cure for the weak G string that afflicts some Stingrays. Bought from Bass Direct this week for £107. £75 posted[/quote] Did you use another pickup instead of the Nordy you removed? I'm thinking of buying one, and cant decide between this or one of the Seymour Duncan ones.
  9. I'm based in West London/Bucks area, and looking to either start or join an established band. I've got experience touring and recording, all pro equipment etc. Its easier to list what I listen to rather than describe an ideal band: AC/DC, Ozzy, Shinedown, Kiss, Alter Bridge, White Zombie, Velvet Revolver... Drop me a line if you're interested. Sorry to put this bit but it saves wasting yours and my time. No kids or newbies please, genuine offers only. Please read what I'm into, I don't want an indie or folk band. Thanks, Steve [url="http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b164/steviec99/?action=view&current=25781_10150186240360417_883270416_1.jpg"][/url]
  10. [quote name='cocco' post='853265' date='Jun 1 2010, 09:01 AM']I thought Burton played a black and gold?[/quote] Yeah he did, and more!
  11. [quote name='Mr.T' post='835950' date='May 13 2010, 10:08 AM']I'll take it as a part/ex on my Dyna Custom.[/quote] yeah?
  12. I'll leave it here for the week then I think it's off to the dreaded bay to see if someone wants to give it a home over there...
  13. It hasn't gone to eBay yet, but anyone looking for an Aria SB Elite II ? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=87478"]LINK[/url]
  14. Actually scrap the 'no trades' bit. Anyone willing to do a straight swap for a Harley Dyna is more than welcome to message me!
  15. One well-loved bass for sale... Having a bit of a clear out to make (wallet) room for my new Harley, so I'm begrudgingly passing on a few of my treasures. Its a 1984 Matsumoku Aria Pro II SB Elite-II in beautiful translucent black. Its a bit of a rarity as they mostly came in padouk red or oak. • 2 MB II Double coil pickups • 5-ply maple/walnut transmit neck • 24 fret, rosewood board • Slimmer neck than the SB-1000 • Vol, tone, pu selector, 2 coil taps There's a small bit of wear on the edge near the strap button that I've marked on one of the pics, but that's it. Great condition, all original, plays beautifully. Comes with suitable retro burgundy leatherette gig bag. That's a gem in itself, actually all my band laugh at it, but I love the kitsch-retro look of it! £650 would persuade me to give it up, I'm not looking for trades on this one. Metallica fans should love this. I do.
  16. Did a trade for Badass bridges with Ou7shined. Great guy, really quick and just as promised! Thanks dude!
  17. [quote name='artisan' post='808551' date='Apr 16 2010, 04:06 PM']it's just a sh*te pickup thing imho. i spent ages mucking about with strings & e.q. settings all to no avail. bung a Nordy in & you'll love it Dave [/quote] What kind of sound does the Nord give you? I've heard the Seymour Duncan is pretty faithful to the original MM tone, I don't want to sacrifice that just to get more volume out the G string? I've got a 2006 30th Anni Ray which sounds immense apart from the faint G string...
  18. Is the general consensus here that the Nordstrand is that much better than the Seymour Duncan pickup? My G-string is sounding painfully weak at the mo, I'm playing a '06 30th Anniv Ray and it sounds absolutely immense, just lacking on the G...
  19. I'm looking for a band based in West London or Bucks area, either starting one or joining an established one. I've got experience touring and recording, great stage presence, all pro equipment etc. I'm into : Skid Row, Buckcherry, Shinedown, Kiss, Velvet Revolver, Aerosmith, LA Guns, Metallica, Black Stone Cherry, Lit, Ramones and heaps more... Drop me a line if you're interested. Me ----> The Gear ---->
