thebeat Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 [quote name='BigBeefChief' post='294157' date='Sep 28 2008, 08:50 PM']I think selling this and buying another bass is a fantastic idea. I doubt after your next purchase you''ll even look at another bass again, let alone buy one.[/quote] M'wah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Kev why don't you try tuning down a full step, it will loosen up the strings a bit and should make it easier on your left hand and you should also find digging in comes alot more easily, or simply tune down half a step and see if that makes any difference first, just a friendly suggestion man .

BigBeefChief Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Apparently this bass has been cheating on him with Darren from up the pub. What we don't know yet is that Kev is having an affair with Darren's fiance Debby! Stay tuned folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerboy Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I was just thinking about simultaneous equations the other day in the shower. Yes, I'm a geek. Finally a chance to use them in real life. Let's take B as the value of the bass without a neck. G is the value of the graphite neck. W the wooden, and S is shipping. So: B+G = 800 B+W+S = 800 B+W+G = 900 We can see straight away that W+S=G, and that W=100. Also G-S=100, and so 100+S=G. This gives us B+S=700 And therefore S=100, B=600, W=100 and G=100. Therefore we can speculate that the bass, plus both necks, plus shipping, B+W+G+S will be £1000. Which is a bargain IMO. I really enjoyed GCSE maths, all those years ago. Lovely bass, btw. I'm sure it'll sell soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have a think in more detail..... Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerboy Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) You know, you're right. We need a general solution for all cases of S! So G-W=S. We need to know what BMK is willing to sell a neck on its own for. Damn my terrible maths. I should have remembered that you can't possibly solve 4 variables from 3 equations!

Kev Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) haha, brilliant the status neck on its own will be up for sale for around £150, which is a bloody bargain, if the rest sells, probably the same price for the wooden neck visa versa so the best deal is to buy both!

Kev Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) okay, rethink its still for sale kinda, but i'm gunna give it a good play over the weekend and such, and il probably end up keeping it, il better myself as a player and start using that B. The tone and otherwise playability of this superb instrument is worth that Edited October 3, 2008 by BassManKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
