    Simon's a good guy, and his luthier skills are not to be sneezed at - deal with confidence.

    Jon and I traded fretlesses, his Yamaha for my Squier. All as advertised, good communication, patient with my delays. The Yam came in astounding packing, easily the best cardboard I've ever seen around a bass. I'd be pleased to deal with him again. Thanks Jon PS: he also sent back the stuff I'd sent him by mistake, and didn't even charge postage for it. A gentleman.

    Is this one of your homebuilds? The stain has that look to it

    If this wasn't sunburst I'd nab it.... John's a nice guy and absolutely honest. Deal with confidence

    [quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1389374717' post='2333586'] That is crazy money. I had the fretless version, it had the nearest to a double bass tone from an electric I've heard, also had a great electric tone, light as a feather too......yet another bass I wish I'd kept. [/quote] Indeed! I'm not selling, sorry John

    That's quite awful. Name and shame, please...

    [quote name='sammybee' timestamp='1389293539' post='2332546'] I clicked on this expecting to see a SGC Nanyo 'Bass Collection'!!!! ... [/quote] Me too. Jaw-dropping!

    I bought some headphones. No complaints at all, and I'd happily trade with him again. Thanks mate

    Sounds like a fine bass. I am not a fan of the look, though Good luck with the sale

    "45 people are viewing this item per hour" ... .... and a Gotoh bridge. I'm surprised it hasn't gone already.

    I sold inmate1571 my nice shiny green OLP. Good communication, all went well, no hesitation in dealing with him again. (I assume it's a him ) Good luck with the OLP Andy, it deserves a good home.

    [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1389123255' post='2330351'] That. Is. Awesome. Great to hear you're back into live music, and props to your wife, who is clearly your soulmate. Keep us posted [/quote] This

    I'd rather have guitarists who tune than guitarists who don't... One of the reasons our New Years' gig was awful was that we'd agreed a set list, and then it got reworked on the fly. D'oh...

    I bought Dunc's MD bass. All went well, and I'd be pleased to deal with him again. Thanks mate

    I bought a couple of pedals from Geoff. All went well and I'd have no hesitation in dealing with him again. thanks Geoff

    £80 no-name jazz bought from Mr Foxen. Reading this thread, I'm beginning to think it's too pricey to gig

    It's probably worth editing the thread title to include the word "Reduced" - use the full editor. Good luck

    I don't know the BBN5 II, but I had a BBN5 till recently and that looks only a touch high, especially with the case. If I was looking for a fiver I'd give it a punt at £150, and £170 might be fair.

    That's definitely weird. Thanks for the gen

    I like the Snark clip-ons.

    Thanks for the input, gents. I'm pondering; it goes against the grain to part out a working bass in decent order, mass-produced or not.

    [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1388866057' post='2327179'] Is it good for Metal? [/quote] I suppose it might be easily lead. At that price, it's a steel.

    Pleased to see this thread, as I bought BCer Steve's 5-string in December. Can't play it at all, I find the different intervals very hard (tuning gDGBD). Hmm... I may yet tune it aEADG - if I can get strings to do it, I think that might break the standard ones.

    [quote name='ped' timestamp='1388850808' post='2326848'] Trousers don't matter when your junk is on your forehead LOLLLL Ok another warning for me. [/quote] Depends how he wears his trousers But generally, yes. Good for you, and I appreciate the hard work and attention that mods and staff put in to keeping BC a nice place to be.
