  1. Hi Looking to sell the Shuker Singlecut 4 string bass. It's a complete hand-made bass of the finest quality. The bass has been completely set-up, new strings and plays beautifully. The EQ is so versatile and the Delano pups give you all the growl and grunt along with sweet highs too - but not all at the same time ;o) I'm looking for [b]£795 includes branded hard-case. [/b]Postage extra but should be around about £25 to mainland UK (plus insurance if you want to add that). I might consider a trade, maybe a [b]fretless. Get in touch, you never know...[/b] Here's the spec from Jon Shuker: with added pics! [u][b]The spec [/b][/u] 34" scale 26 frets 5 piece laminated mahogany, white sycamore veneer neck maple f/board two way truss rod carbon fibre reinforced neck medium jumbo fretwire 2mm black side dots satin lacqure on neck / fboard mahogany body burr imbuya part curve top 6 bolt recessed neck polyester basecoat wet look gloss topcoat black hardware individual ABM tuner bridges 20mm spacing at bridge Delano JMVC split coil pickups Shuker 3 band eq (vol, pan, treble, mid, bass.

  2. Not leaving this up for much longer. If you want it grab it soon ;o)
  3. Most definitely a bargain! But, for those holding their breath for a price reduction - don't, you'll suffocate ;o)
  4. OK, this is being withdrawn tomorrow - honest! Therefore, just for this evening I will accept the first offer of £1250 firm.
  5. [quote name='MarkusWarwick' timestamp='1319060882' post='1409580'] I agree with Vic......... Definetly the best looking bass on basschat [/quote] Thanks, Guys - much appreciated! Get this superb Thumb bass while you can...
  6. [quote name='sunfish' timestamp='1319044037' post='1409301'] Hi Would you be interested in a swap for a Siggery Roadbass 4 string? [/quote] Thanks for the offer, but I'm trying to see if I can sell the SWR first. Cheers.
  7. Off the bottom of the page already? Ouch! NB. Please don't wait for the gradual reduction in price - the inverse eBay principle - it's not going to happen. Just being honest folks ;o))
  8. [b]Withdrawn[/b] is my 1989 Warwick Thumb NT. This is virtually mint! Hardly any signs of wear and the proverbial thumb mark over the neck pup is minimal - can't be bad for a 22 year old bass! The body is amazing and the pattern changes slightly depending upon the angle of light. It's been fully set-up, new strings, lovely low action and is everything a Thumb should be and sound ;o) It has EMG pups, all original electronics, very slim neck and is much lighter in overall weight than the later Thumbs. There isn't the so-called head/neck dive, it balances beautifully and hugs the body as if it's a part of you - we'll, it is isn't it! It comes with a padded Warwick gig bag, a partially used tub of Warwick wax, allen keys, Warwick decal and all the kudos that only owning a Warwick can bring. A real piece of vintage Warwick. This is truly a piece of Warwick history.
  9. Now with added footswitch (brand new and still in the box) for an extra £50
  10. Chris bought/part ex'd my Shuker Elite Custom bass. Great guy to do business with and kept me fully informed of progress. Highly recommended!
  11. Hi. Got this amp about six weeks ago. Only been used three times at home and sounds great. However, the controls and dot indents are just to small for me to feel confident using live. It has the SWR sound and seems to have bags of power. A good review is here: [url="http://www.musicradar.com/gear/all/amplification/headlite-bass-preamp-385521/review"]http://www.musicrada...p-385521/review[/url] The Headlite comes complete with power cord and an SWR branded bag - very well padded and has enough storage for the amp, a footswitch and the SWR Amplite (footswitch and Amplite not in the sale!!). The item in absolute mint condition and I've even polished off my finger marks from the Master control knob ;O) Bass Direct have these on offer for £699, Thomann has B stock for about £590. Any questions please ask and I'll do my best to answer them.
  12. [quote name='bass_by_name' timestamp='1318927472' post='1407710'] What about the TC Classic if you dont want the bells and whistles. Some think it sounds different/better as well. There is so much choice in this market its impossible to say whether A is a better choice than B, C, D, E, F without knowing your non functional requirements and knowing which of these amps will match them. Unfortunately the world of e-sellers does not replace the skill and knowledge of a good retailer and using forums to replace the retailer only gets opinions of the gear that they have tried. But as you live close the what is probably the best retailer in the country get your arse over to Bass Direct and try them for yourself. [/quote] Fair comment, but in my experience a Retailer has an agenda! They have to shift a certain amount of stock or lose that brand. Moreover, most gear will sound decent in shop conditions -although admittedly you do get a 'flavour' of the amp etc. I am more concerned about user experience. Reviews and snippets on Youtube are all very good but the real proof of a piece of gear is whether it can stand the gig and each and every gig. BTW, I have already got 'my arse' over to Bass Direct as you suggest but my question to fellow Bass Chatters still stands.
  13. Hi Would really appreciate your thoughts on whether the Aguilat Tonehammer 500 or TC Electronic RH450 is the better small amp head? The power for each is fine and I like the simplicity of the Aguilar but also the range of features on the RH450! Any comments on reliability, tonal flexibility, does either one 'flavour' the sound of the bass too much (I've read somewhere that there Aguilar does have a recognisable 'sound'). Musically, I play quite a diverse range of stuff from jazz to blues with some 'acoustic' moments ;o) I'll be using the head with a pair of Mark bass Club 121 (1x12) cabs. Thoughts very welcome. Thanks
  14. Quick flip to the top before it goes off for a commission sale.
  15. Got one very interesting trade offer at the moment, which I'm seriously considering. Any final offers of a trade or folding money?
  16. Stunning burl walnut top drop bump!
  17. [quote name='aldude' timestamp='1317981628' post='1396853'] Ibanez Prestige 5er? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/118050-ibanez-prestige-sr4005e-5-string/"]http://basschat.co.u...4005e-5-string/[/url] [/quote] Thanks, but not quite my cuppa ;o)
  18. Need to shift this bass. So, last offer of £1000 to include mainland UK postage. This is a great price for a great bass.
