Just had an email conversation with Gabor and he's building a new batch this week - and they've not all been allocated yet...

That's better :-) so many left hand basses makes me queasy :-) [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1453129297' post='2956622'] I could spend all day in the Gear Porn subforum, drooling at basses. I think I need to keep up the lefty side on this thread, though, so here you are: ten of my 12 basses (the other 2 are uprights). The chintzy green sofa's function was to add some reference colour to the scene, but obtaining something approximately resembling the real colours of the instruments also required a bit of photoshopping.

This is what it probably looked like originally :-) https://plus.google.com/photos/117172107565095150766/albums/5710543922480870801

[quote name='JohnR' timestamp='1475318716' post='3144976'] I would love to try these as soon as they appear in the UK. [/quote] http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Kalium_strings.html Bass Direct do them, although stock does not look great,,

Sounds like Mr Angry :-)

DR Low Riders tend to be firm.. Certainly more than Sun Beams..

Dingwall Z3. Bought about a month ago and love it...

https://assets.peavey.com/literature/manuals/MaxCombos_manual.pdf interestingly the 60W "old" version shows a power draw of 75W :-)

how do you get 300W RMS out when it's only getting 74W in? Which is what the high res picture shows...

some serious bassage there..

A Wal Custom - back in 1983 I think.. Was completely different (much better) than any other bass I had played until then..

Welcome on board :-)

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1474962473' post='3141760'] In most industries 30 days is normal [/quote] Our record for an undisputed £700k invoice to BT was 241 days :-)

I'd echo what other folk are saying here.. AB1 with nice top is worth as least as much as the S2...

looks like someone stole my grannies sideboard and made a bass from the top.. minimalist or just dull? I can't decide...

bugera (Behringer) are well known for claiming peak power at way more than 1% THD . I suspect about 250W RMS ...

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1474913653' post='3141493'] are you mark stickley [/quote] No.. :-) Although it's my dream to become more like him :-)

I know this is a very un basschatlike statement, but it's Mark's business how he prices things. Some of the s/h basses are being sold for commission so he does not necessarily control the pricing, and he seems to have done pretty well so far.. And if you don't ask for a discount when you're in there, then my advice is that you should... :-) [quote name='dyerseve' timestamp='1474904320' post='3141408'] yeah i get that but those overheads wont get paid if he cant shift the basses because they are priced too high.
