WITHDRAWN - PLEASE CLOSE - FS/FT: Warwick P-Nut II - Final Price
Tandro replied to gingerfish's topic in Basses For Sale

[quote name='EndofSilence' timestamp='1413759098' post='2581675'] Reducing the Warwick Streamer Stage 1 Six string to £600. Had a massive leak in the house which damaged several of my bass guitars due to damp. Took it to a tech about a month back and found there were problems with the neck, more specifically dead frets in the upper part of the fretboard. He managed to fix it but the trussrod has been wound to it's maximum tightness though. I've now had it out of said damp environment for about two months so that may have helped the neck but it's more than likely it will need a new trussrod. [/quote] That's rough dude. I often wondered what I'd to if anything happened to my basses. Most probably sit in a corner somewhere and cry. If I was in the market for a 6 I'd have loved to try this out. GLWTS

Bought Adam's 5 string Squier. Exactly as described and excellent communications as we discussed delivery/shipping and it all went very smoothy. Would not hesitate doing any deals with him again!

Sorry to hear why this sale came about. I must admit that one day in the future I'd hope I might have been able to pick up one of those P-Nuts if you were ever parting with them, but never imagined so soon. Whoever picks 'em up I'm sure will be happy (unfortunately won't be me), but I hope things work out.

"Holy chicken coop Batman!" How did I not see this for sale thread before? Some lurvely specimens there...but I would love to know what finally pushed you over the edge to offload so many at one time. Making room for more, New Year's resolution, an epiphany, not being able to get to the ones at the back?

[quote name='TBString58' timestamp='1381789451' post='2243943'] Just treated myself to one of these, same year, only #11 ever made maybe they shared a rack at some point all those years ago. Fantastic bass, the most natural I've ever felt... And the sound, OH MY GOD THE SOUND THEY MAKE!!! Sends a shiver down my spine... [/quote] That would not happen to be the one (black gloss) that was in Bassdirect, would it? It's funny that 2 pop up at the same time (as they say, like London busses...)

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1379429999' post='2212594'] I hadn't realised when you bought my JD Thumb how much my house downsize would affect my little collection and mean that I'd need to sell the SSI, SSII and 'possibly' even my Infinette (though that is a last resort and it'd be serious money to persuade me to sell it)! [/quote] Hehe...well, it's definitely not like I'm worse off for it I knew I'd like the thumb, just no idea how much, I'm so stoked with it! Better than I imagined to be honest. It's a good thing the choice was not there at the time, cause then I'd have done something silly. Anybody out there wanna give me a loan? I'd just buy out John's whole collection...

Thanks for all the info everyone! I am ashamed to say it though, but every point raised is something I am doing to a limited degree, something I've either done and stopped (for some stupid reason) or meaning to do (that never got anyone anywhere, now did it). Because actual bass 'practice' time was so limited, I tried to see what I could offload to dead time when I was away from my bass. So as Pete alluded to, currently my ear training is basically relegated to my bus ride in the morning to work. I've got an app on my phone that plays various intervals that you try to recognise. While that is good and I'll keep doing it, I realise that is not enough (for me), especially when trying to learn it and not just for maintenance. With the noise and distractions I don't focus enough. Evidence of this is when I do the same thing but in some quiet at home/office, I can discern the intervals with more success and helps me 'learn' and internalize it better. I've read quite a few different things that have mentioned Banacos, and I even used to use that software from miles.be on my old computer, not putting it on my new one! Transcription is always mentioned by everyone and I've got it written down as top priority on my 'music things to do' list (those lists need to be banished). As for keyboard, I actually got one early this year to get back into piano (did it when I was a kid) for the very purpose of harmony and visualizing all the theoretical concepts...and where is it sat, in the box. I need to revamp my approach to this ear training, along with singing stuff. As mentioned by Bilbo, the ultimate goal for me is to link ideas to fingers. Unfortunately Pete, I have gone down the same road and I'm finding things at the cost of 'years of slow discovery'. But better now than later. I was pleasantly surprised to find the Chris Tarry stuff available again! I thought it was all subscription based now. One last thing on the Bruce Arnold One Note series, is it basically all this same stuff? Is it just him playing the cadence and a note or is there more meat to it and worth the investment?
