  1. That's the only metal song I've ever liked. My beard agrees.
  2. I've no real intention of buying from the USA, but thanks for the heads-up.
  3. Gordon Bennett! Six hundred quid?!!
  4. It's easy... they just search for the sunny days.
  5. Also, I have a Krappy triple-neck. I am not entirely sure what it's good for (microtuning?), but it's great for making people go - often all at once...
  6. I'd come to a Morphine-themed gig (I've taken two strings off my Kramer The Duke... figure the aluminium neck is rigid and won't be affected by lack of string tension. Also the pup is somewhat mis-spaced so with only two strings I can get round that. Now I need to persuade the new girl at work to start playing baritone sax again...)
  7. I'm pleased it works well for you It's too nice to part out, in my opinion. I wish I'd thought of T-Cut. I doubt I'd have had the nerve to try it though. The Yamaha is heavy, but I'm only likely to play it sitting down so I am not too worried. (Also, I have a T-40...)
  8. Result for you
  9. I keep reminding myself it's got too many strings...
  10. That's a looker
  11. Play an upright? Maybe not possible, but it seemed worth a post
  12. Is there any way of not sitting down for the gig? Nowhere where you can stand without looking out of place?
  13. Simon's a good guy, and his luthier skills are not to be sneezed at - deal with confidence.
  14. 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.
  15. Is this one of your homebuilds? The stain has that look to it
  16. If this wasn't sunburst I'd nab it.... John's a nice guy and absolutely honest. Deal with confidence
  17. [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
  18. That's quite awful. Name and shame, please...
  19. [quote name='sammybee' timestamp='1389293539' post='2332546'] I clicked on this expecting to see a SGC Nanyo 'Bass Collection'!!!! ... [/quote] Me too. Jaw-dropping!
  20. 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
