  1. Yes, the Millennium is ex-demo. I also am stuffed to the gills with Peaveys but still quite fancy a Zodiac. If I had a silly amount of money, I'd have a sillier amount of basses
  2. Foundations are the mutt's How did you free up the trussrod nut, if I may ask?
  3. Keep an eye on the Peavey eBay account. I got an American-made Millennium from them for £220...
  4. I agree with the OP
  5. Would someone else please buy this, sharpish? Ta!
  6. My Vox Standard doesn't have the bridge you describe, nor has it had a bridge cover (it's been partly stripped of paint, so it would be easy to see). I haven't found any pics of a Standard on line with a cover, though I think I remember seeing one on eBay a while ago, which I think was added by the owner. With a bit of luck Bassassin will be along in a while to share his astounding amount of knowledge
  7. I've owned two, both bought second-hand. One I sold on as a project; it wasn't great but it worked. The other has a second P pup added and I think is a keeper. For what they cost they are good, and a little time on tidying them and maybe upgrading the pup seems to produce quite a lot of bang for your buck. The P-P has Wilkinson pups, and they sound fine to me.
  8. Oooh. If I didn't have one already... Also, where are you based? Good luck with your sale!
  9. This is one of the new BC basses, not one of the old SGC Nanyo ones. If it was an MIJ SGC Nanyo that would be a fairly good price. For this one, it's probably about right, from what I hear - they seem to be decent at their price point, but no more than that. The moderns are Fender-style, J-ish or P-ish; the old SGCs are "modern"-style with a skinny headstock, like this one: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/199589-bass-collection-sgc-nanyo-japan-4-string-sold/.
  10. Kenny bought my B-10. No issues and I'd be happy to deal with him again. Thanks
  11. [quote name='Pixiechick23' timestamp='1408278137' post='2528522'] I think I'm gonna! Been looking at the Harley Benton one. At 107 quid I can hardly say no can I? [/quote] If you do, you may have to change the nut. I had an HB fretless, and the nut was for a fretted bass and way too high. Probably a cost-cutting thing... 107 you say?
  12. Is the BB404 the same as a four-string BBN5? That surely looks like a BBN4.
  13. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1408123683' post='2527412'] Just wanted to give you guys a heads up not to deal with this idiot his ebay ID is [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/acol23345"]acol23345[/url] to cut a long story short I bought a bass from him paid for it then the next day he sent me a message saying the bass was damaged so I ask what the damage was and for some pictures of the damage he then said I could not have any as he has sold the bass to some one else as spares hmmm lies me think anyway ebay are watching him and they will be getting my money back so avoid this knob like the plague all [/quote] Thanks Paul, appreciated.
  14. I reckon it would go plunk
  15. That ought to be turned into a hard case
  16. The info link in your first post is broken
  17. Pretty wood
  18. Not heard of these. Looks nice
  19. Lou bought my Hohner The Jack. No problems, and no hesitation in dealing with him again. Cheers! (Kudos also to ParcelForce 48, who delivered in 29 hours...)
  20. plenty of love for the Peavey, it's just that the budget already went, on Peaveys...
  21. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1407777801' post='2523936'] <snip>... my car is a running gag to my friends and colleages ... can't understand why I won't buy a new car. As far as I'm concerned, it works, it does what I want it to do and I'm just not interested in driving around in a shiny new w*nker's car... [/quote] This
  22. Pretty
  23. That blue Vulture is gorgeous
  24. I've never ever seen a bass with all the saddles lined up like that.
  25. Well worth £37 for the neck, if it's decent.
