    SOLD.

    One of the nicest playing Warwicks I've ever owned. Only sold to Josh as I was out of work and if funds permitted I'd have it back NOW without question.

    Not great really if I'm honest. The speaker is mounted on MDF via pretty useless inserts which dont do a great job. I had to get some large/wide wood screws and remount the driver when it became loose. This made it better but by no means perfect. Didn't really matter for too long as the amp packed up all together! Its sitting here gathering dust as I don't think its really worth getting it fixed.

    [quote name='Muri' timestamp='1394209978' post='2389214'] Hi, is it still up for sale? Cheers [/quote] I'm afraid not. But keep looking as they are super little amps. I'm sure one will come along soon

    What a stunner! I had an '89 Thumb and nowhere near as pretty as this. Bargain price too for this sort of quality.

    Another Genz recommendation. I used to have an F1 which I used with a Genz 6x10, it was superb. Friend of mine uses a Genz NeoX 2x12 with his F1 which again is great. I really like the Markbass/Genz combination which has worked very well for me in lots of gig situations. If you can find one, the Genz Focus 4x10 is outstanding for the money.

    Selling my Taiwanese made Yamaha BB300. Not bad condition, buckle rash and a few little dinks. Neck is very good as are the frets. Truss rod is fine as is everything else. Replacement tuners (Fender type). Would prefer collection from the lovely Merseyside area or meet up/deliver at cost within reasonable distance from St Helens.

    [quote name='Kev' timestamp='1392660433' post='2371248'] Surely worth a punt at this price for someone! [/quote] On Hold now. If somebody's good at doing up things like this then it is. sadly I'm not!

    For sale is my Mayones B4 with a twisted neck. I bought this some months ago but I dont have the funds now to get it sorted. I play it at home, sounds lovely and I would say its 80% good for me. There is buzzing on the E up the dusty end, ADG are fine. The relif in the neck is greater on the E than G, noticeable when you look down the neck from the headstock. I had this checked out locally (KGB Guitars in Birkenhead) where they said a dressing would help a little, but a refret and sanding the fingerboard would stop the buzzing. There is also a slight 'parting' between two of the neck laminates at the top of the neck/bottom of headstock. Not an actual split in the wood I should add. I contacted Mayones and got a quote for a replacment neck which was 550Euros (about 450) which I certainly cant afford! So I'm selling it as a project or for parts and collection only from Merseyside.

    [quote name='edstraker123' timestamp='1378935920' post='2206863'] I was the first owner of this beauty - I seem to recall I paid 1200 new but sold it as the neck was a bit wide. I still think it is one of the most stunning basses I have ever seen. I couldn't sleep the night before picking it up I was that excited. Crazy price for it now though on ebay . [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=221275182113"]http://cgi.ebay.co.u...em=221275182113[/url] [/quote] You were selling a 5 string ACG at the time as well. I was very tempted with that but really I only do 4's! The neck was quite wide, you would expect it to be less than 40mm at the nut (cant remember exactly) but I did find it tricky at times. I think it was due to financial woes that I sold it on. Sure is a beautiful bass though and the build quality is stunning.

    I will say that this was the bestest Stingray I ever owned. I had to sell it to Muzz to fund my unemployedness at the time. The neck was so smooth and comfortable but that scratch plate! What were you thinking!
  23. bigthumb
    Think I owned it for a while. Looks the same.

    Yeah a '54 or so they said! Something a bit more legitimate though http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Precision-Bass-1964-/111144783461?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item19e0bece65
