Haha no worries Henry. The 5 is great and it has the barts which I think are fabulous on these basses. Never got around to replacing them on this bass. There is certainly some great aquatic wildlife on the forum right now! 🐬

Yes! I had to source one from Australia in the end. Am I going backwards here? Perhaps but what's very clear to me is that it has to work well in a live setting and my playing is currently in a place where I need what I need so to speak. A few different pedals for different voices that I can control on the fly. Funnily enough though I'm also using a Mobius and an ES5 for patch changes, not exactly simples but it just seems to work somehow. Anyway - why is this still here? There must be some mad scientists out there who want to destroy the internal organs of their audience with some synth goodness.....? Hit me up!

So BC is going Dolphin mad now with Henry moving not one but two of his (the blue one is particularly sick imo). Lot's of interest in this one but still here so far. First and only price drop to £1,650 for a quick cash sale, price stays as is for porpoises of any trades. I'll be at the Victor Wooten Gallery session later this month (no idea who he is but the Prince Albert does a particularly good sausage and mash). This will go with me, transported in it's own special saltwater transit tank, for the Gallery guys to sell for me. Let's find it a home before then. Px trades are still welcome, especially for: P basses Spector Euro or similar - a 6 would be awesome Other things considered of course..! Must realise a decent wedge of cash from any deal though Happy Sunday all x

I love this as it's completely bonkers. In reality does it work though? You've got ead on the fretless then eadg on the fretted? So you can essentially switch like a double neck but with just the one neck? Could you switch each side on/off to help with the muting?

Haha, thanks mate. I'll post some later, but most bits you can see. Around the edge is an ehx freeze, digitech ricochet, Tc nova repeater, oc2 and a t16. All runs through a boss es5, source audio reflex and the expressionator that you can see. Power from a strymon which is awesomely noise free, even with naughty moogs. It'll change soon for the reasons I described. The squaver will come off and be replaced by an ie xerograph deluxe, ie subterranea and a zvex mastotron.

Hi max, thank you but really looking for a more traditional p style bass Regards Abd

I think b has a trim pot so you can fine tune the gain and overall input. Same as the heart Rock, works really well to get just the right level

Is this too fruity even for basschat...? Money, trades, px or healthy organs all considered...

Really nice, reminds me of a bass gag: Guy walked into the rehearsal and says to the bassist, "lovely looking bass, what are all the knobs for?" "Well, one plays guitar, one plays drums....." Glwts!

Agree - ADSR would give some more options but I found that the sweep of envelope options as actually pretty darn usable. There wasn't much I couldn't find, problem comes back to the fact that once you need to change it you are down to fine tuning and on a gig it just doesn't work so well for me. If I had the budget and a roadie to schlep all the gear about I would love to try it with a subphatty. The is some maths for this I believe; (Bass+Squaver+Subphatty)^n=sick. n = talent btw!

And pics:

By the way there is a typo on the price - it should be 450. This is about 150 off the list so whilst not cheap hopefully still a fair deal. And yes, trades are always an option although cash is king right now (as there is nothing I'm really after right now). I would take an Audi R8 in black depending on the mileage.

Well, yes matey you are right and sorry for not getting back as I did say I would. My take on this is as follows: Excellent sounds, phat analogue, lots of variation for textures etc Downside is there are no presets and in practical terms I have found this really difficult on gigs. The control adjustments offer real fine tuning but the problem here is that on a gig on the fly it's difficult to get them just right. Hopefully the P2 or P1++ will have some presets! Real estate on the board is also an issue but tbh I could have lived with this if I could get on better for live. I've not yet tried it linked through CV to other units. Overall there are some other things that I could use the cash for hence moving it on. If this were not an issue I would keep the squaver separate and take a different approach to the board.

Too much for me! New, in the box. Price includes UK postage. Pics to follow ASAP!

Don't you already own all the 6 strings in Essex?

Try me. Top of the list is a decent p bass though...

Really nice. What's the neck profile like?

Here you go - pics added. I have now entered the 'bass on leather sofa' phase.... I'm going to leave the price as per the original listing as I think this is in the right ball park. Happy to listen to offers with cash and bass though - of particular interest would be spectors or quality P basses but hit me up. x

Hi markus, yes, apologies I think the originals have gone. I'll make sure I take some new ones in decent light and get them up ASAP. You know what it is though! 😁

Hi all, bumping and will shortly reconstitute photos as I should really move this on. I love it dearly but it's nostalgia and it doesn't get the gigs. Trades considered with a decent chunk of cash way...

Wow. Man, that sofa has seen some serious bass action

IdonotneedthisIdonotneedthis..... Awesome

Sorry to hear about this ville. I hope things pick up for you soon. All my best regards. Bump for a great seller

Amazing fooger. Good luck with your sale

Haha - yes and I rebought this one! No doubt I will rebuy another one in a few months! Nothing not to like, you can even exp the filter now...
