  1. How odd. Why would someone remove the serial number?! Replacement neck, possibly?
  2. I sold Paul my Hondo Alien. He was very tolerant of my delays and very quick to do his end of the deal (ooh err missus, etc. etc.). This is at least the second time we've dealt with one another, and I wouldn't be surprised if it happens again Thanks Paul!
  3. If you've got to do sunburst, that's the way to do it! (Also I applaud the brilliant choice of carpet, which sets the bass off perfectly )
  4. Wow. (I didn't know about the Kaman connection. Thanks for that. Some of the Kaman helicopter designs are frrrreeeeaky... - but they work!)
  5. Maybe I'm misremembering, I thought these went for £550 or so.
  6. And a quote (seen in the BBC news article): "I always think of the guitar as being part of a larger instrument, which is the band," Gill added. "What I always find uninspiring is when guitarists treat the rest of the band as a background over which they show off."
  7. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Inceni-Zoot-Performer-Bass/114095530830?hash=item1a909fa34e:g:r7gAAOSwFOleNpWY Misnamed in the sale item; might go relatively cheaply as a result.
  8. Hm. Would you sell the fretless neck separately?
  9. Not my thing. (Nor within my budget, as it happens.) It's a bit like going to see my nephew's band - they're really good at what they do, but I'm not a fan of it.
  10. "Yes my love, I posted it on eBay ... "
  11. Probably worth closing one of these adverts, since they seem to describe the same bass ... ?
  12. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-Ibanez-RDGR-fretless-active-bass-Complete-with-hardcase/184137021362?hash=item2adf6bf7b2:g:mjgAAOSwfl1eJd6S Claimed to be rare; I wouldn't know; but it looks nice. Might be worth a punt.
  13. Whoa... just as well it's got frets! Good luck with your sale

    I sold Kev my Yamaha BB400 fretless. All went well, and I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Kev again.
  15. I'm not sure this is a viable business model, TBH.
  16. Nowadays I have one which was modded with an extra P pup at the bridge before I got it (a Wilkinson, IIRC). Gigged it a few times. I want to put a fretless neck on it, which is on my vast list of Stuff I Will Never Get Round To.
  17. Hm. One and a half, usually. This one is self-funding, is a better singer than he thinks, and a really very good rhythm player. The half is not so much fun to be round, but writes. Both of them have gone really quiet recently. To the point I wonder if I've been fired but they are too wimpy to tell me...
  18. One of my guitarists has a Breedlove fretted six-string. Lovely thing.
