    I bought Dave's fretless Steinberger Spirit, and an elegant little beast it is. Nice guy, all went well, I'd have no hesitation in dealing with him again. Thanks Dave

    ... reduce chance of my even clicking on the item by 95% ...

    6kg in weight... and only two strings. The plunk-per-pound ratio is not high, is it.
  4. alyctes
    Thanks.

    Where are the dots positioned - at the fretting position, or behind the fretting position?

    The Stop Making Sense reading of Heaven will be played at my funeral. The rest of it's awesome as well

    Might work for the Mark Sandman/Morphine stuff, tune it in fifths and play it with a slide.

    Impossible to limit it to three. So far, I've very little in common with the rest of the thread.

    Thanks. Tempting! (As usual, I could easily spend my annual income via BC...)

    So this is approximately cello size, then?
  11. alyctes
    How odd. Why would someone remove the serial number?! Replacement neck, possibly?

    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!

    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 )

    Wow. (I didn't know about the Kaman connection. Thanks for that. Some of the Kaman helicopter designs are frrrreeeeaky... - but they work!)

    Maybe I'm misremembering, I thought these went for £550 or so.

    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."

    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.
  18. alyctes
    Hm. Would you sell the fretless neck separately?
  19. alyctes
    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.
  20. alyctes
    I liked it.

    "Yes my love, I posted it on eBay ... "
  22. alyctes
    It looks like a 60s chair back.
  23. alyctes
    Nice. Does the switch ever get moved by accident?
  24. alyctes
    Probably worth closing one of these adverts, since they seem to describe the same bass ... ?
