  1. I've got a MM Stingray 4 neck wth maple board from 2007 in super condition and wondered if anyone has a similar MM Stingray unlined fretless neck they would be willing to trade with. It's well looked after, frets are great and it has been oiled and the back waxed regularly I'm looking for a trade of the neck only, not the whole bass!
  2. I'm happy to meet on the M4 at Reading Services or somewhere
  3. Thanks for the offers, but I'm not looking for trades on this one
  4. For sale is an Italia Rimini semi-acoustic bass in glorious Black. It borrows heavily from the Rickenbacker 4005 bass so is a handsome beast! Currently strung with D'Addario Chromes and sounding wonderful with a low action. Please note though there is a nasty ding near the controls on the lower edge (pictured) that is deep and goes through the paint. There is also a lacquer crack on the lower edge too, again where it has been bashed. Both injuries were caused by a courier but are not life threatening, just purely cosmetic. I've tried to photograph both as best I can but as a result of my previous courier experience I won't post, sorry. I've reflected the cosmetic damage in the price I'm asking for if it doesn't sell at this price I will happily keep it. £185 picked up from Surrey or I'm willing to travel a bit. It does not come with a case or a gigbag.
  5. For sale is a John East P Retro active preamp for a P bass. It doesnt require any modding to the bass and is totally hidden under the pickguard. It's a great bit of kit but not for me I'm afraid. In excellent condition with all the instructions, packaging and chrome control knobs. It includes the battery recharger too. Here's a link to thevYoutube demo: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bRKwHe5ZkZc I'll put pics up later but it is what it is £120 inc p&p
  6. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1366301986' post='2050811'] Get Waltz for Debby, Nick, its even better (wonderful opener in My Foolish Heart and fantastic version of Milestones!) [/quote] Alice in wonderland is my fave. I fell in love with the track at university. A nice bit is serendipity there meeting the Missus years later
  7. [quote name='MartyBRebelMC' timestamp='1366217465' post='2049769'] Thank goodness you're in Surrey otherwise I'd be looking to empty my bank account Lovely bass... cant believe it's still here at that price! [/quote] I can travel I'm a bit surprised too. It's a gorgeous bass but I really need a 4 string backup at the moment
  8. [quote name='Mr Bassman' timestamp='1365951455' post='2046359'] It's a struggle keeping these things going, but we'll keep trying. Thanks for your support Clarky, Sarah & Nick [/quote] CD received with thanks Keith. I've been after a copy of this album for ages, so I'm very happy
  9. Bump for new lower price. I'm not going to go any lower than this
  10. Pics as promised. Please note the dog bowl is not for sale. Neither is the oak dining table propped up against the wall (having building work done ) I have tried my best to show the slight discolouration at the top of the fingerboard near the E string and as you can tell by the magnification, it's pretty small
  11. For sale is a 2 week old NS NXT EUB 4 string in Amber. It comes complete with gig bag, the new updated stand and a clip n tuner. It's one of the range that is now built in the Czech Republic and is s near mint condition, apart from a few tiny natural discolourations in the Ebony board on the E string up the dusty end (and I'm being really picky here!) The build quality compared to the old WAV's is incomparable. I bought this from the Bass Centre 2 weeks ago and chose the one I wanted from 4 available. Unfortunately, an old forearm injury means this is impractical for me These sell for £829 new but I'm willing to let this mint-condition one go for £725. I would also consider a p/x plus cash my way for a decent wireless bass system or: - 2008 onwards Fender US Jazz Bass - Stingray 5 HH - Bongo 5 string - Fender Marcus Miller Jazz (sub 9lbs) plus cash my way Pics to follow but it really is in mint condition Here's a link to the NS website: http://www.nedsteinberger.com/instruments/nxt_bass.php
  12. Mike bought a book off me recently in a totally hassle-free deal. He's a nice guy too which makes it all the more easy Highly recommended
  13. Hi Keith Is the Bill Evans Village Vanguard still available Cheers Nick
  14. It's the picture. Since then its been set up with a lower action as well
  15. For sale is a 54" embossed leather bass strap (It's the one on the left) is a stiff leather with an embossed pattern on it. It's totally unused and is good looking! £15 plus £2 p&p
  16. Thank you for all your kind comments. It's a a fabulous bass
  17. Just plug the Speakon in and it's ready to go. Enjoy
  18. For sale is a brand new copy of F Simandl's New method for the Double Bass (Book 1). I somehow have ended up with 2 copies so am selling 1! Yours for £15 inc P&P
  19. For sale is a recently acquired 1996 G&L L2500 USA Custom bass in Clear Orange over a flat swamp ash cap with cream body binding. I will learn one day that 5 strings really aren't for me! The neck has a lovely figure to it, and is a nice shallow shape. It's in superb condition with only a few small marks on the rear of the bass near the bottom edge. Other than that it's in great nick. Weight-wise I would guess at around 9lbs. Action is low and the neck is lovely The pickups sound huge and the preamp gives as many sound options as you're likely to need! It also includes the G&L Case which is in reasonable condition (one of the feet is missing) and all the paperwork including the Certificate of authenticity. It has also just been strung with a set of DR Sunbeams. It has also just been set up this week to achieve a nice low action. I will add some more pictures later. Price is £710 I've advertised this elsewhere too for a fair amount more Would consider trades for a Little Martin LXMe or similar plus £400 cash, a MM Stingray 4 string, a new series Fender USA Jazz with rosewood board, Lakland Joe Osborn with rosewood board, or Fender USA 75 reissue Jazz or Fender USA 62 reissue P bass
  20. Just sold Andy a pedal. The deal was quick and smooth and he's a thoroughly nice guy too! Highly recommended
  21. Jack recently bought a pedal off me in a completely hassle-free deal. A nice guy and very easy to deal with. Highly recommended
  22. [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1365189473' post='2036654'] A few years back ,I was in the first band ever to use Airplay studios (Ian ). It's in ashford Middx. We recoded 2 CDs . One was excellent quality. Did the whole thing in a day ( roughly 9am-4 pm if I remember correctly;) [/quote] Hmmm, we recorded with Ian a while back and I must say I found the end result very compressed and rather flat. No depth to anything. He's a lovely guy, works fast and is relatively cheap though
  23. I'm not able to call for a while. I've sent a Personal Message though
