  1. For sale is my Japanese made '51 reissue P bass in butterscotch, don't see too many of these around anymore and I will inevitably end up regretting the sale! Had this bass for about a year or so, doesn't get played anymore and I need funds to buy a 5 string... The bass is in great condition, 1 or 2 tiny nicks in the lacquer but they are only surface marks, have managed to get the intonation right even with those tricky saddles so plays in tune all the way up the neck. The neck is a very comfortable shape and easy to play, feels somewhere between a Jazz and a P to my hands but I could be talking rubbish!...The body has a really nice visible grain under the butterscotch. Currently strung with [s]GHS groundwounds for a bit of a vintage vibe [/s]Ernie Ball roundwounds, would probably sound even better with full on flats! looking for [s][b]£520 [/b][/s][b] [s] £500[/s][/b] [s][size=5][b]£470[/b][/size][/s][size=5][b] £440 [/b][/size] for this beauty, it will come with a soft case. Preferably collection or willing to meet up at a reasonable distance (I'm in Berkhamsted, Herts). Postage at buyers expense [s]Trade wise you can try me with a 5 string, happy to put cash towards it as well. Pretty open to what type at the moment, no Warwicks though!.... Lakland 5ers are top of my list! [/s] No trades on this now, sorry! Get involved! Dave
  2. Sorry to be a party pooper but I'm pretty sure the pics underneath are mixed up!... There is a blue one and a gold one... Or am I missing something?!
  3. Sorry to hear you're moving it on so soon!...Did the ACG win out in the end? Bump for a great bass and a good guy to deal with! edit.....Just seen your other posts, looks like you're having a serious clear out!
  4. Nice bass....is this a 62US with the alder body and US pups or the basswood body?
  5. Price drop and gig bag now included bump!
  6. Does that mean it would be unusably low if I put a standard bbt style bridge on it?
  7. This is a beaut!.....Shame about the Badass though....Might come knocking for this if my Dingwall shifts
  8. It is an amazing bass.....not getting used by me anymore so need to downsize....Anyone?!
  9. I use GHS brite flats which are ground wound...they are really great sounding strings but to my ears the sound of them drops off a cliff after about a month, at which time they become a little lifeless and muted resonance wise.... I am def still trying to find the perfect string for me, there are just so many!
  10. Awesome.....there is a 4 track EP available of this gig if you like it!.... Question....Was Solomon Dorsey playing with tapewound strings? He had such a wicked sound, I tried them once and remember them having a similar vibe, couldn't make it out for sure in the vid though. Anybody know for sure?
  11. That's kinda cool, but I don't think it sounds especially like an upright, I know that if my upright sounded like that I'd be swiftly changing the EQ on the ol' fishman! Just doesn't have any depth to the sound... Just IMO of course!
