    It's not the weeks you spend ... Yamaha fan here, but try everything you can lay your hands on (as others have said).
  2. alyctes
    Blimey. I'm impressed you stayed that long.

    Joke

    You're a Precision guy, then?

    Guessing at a factory prototype? Having said that, my Yamaha TRB 5 II has much the same problem - side dots in the wrong place. I may have to do something with Tippex (carefully masked) in the right places, it would make it a lot easier to play.

    It won't be familiar unless the OP's a guitarist, I guess. It'll just be really short scale.

    Wow. This is left-field enough that I don't know whether I like it or not. (I own a Westone Rail I'll never sell, just for context.)
  8. alyctes
    Not a relic fan and I don't like this either. The damage is so obviously artificially-inflicted.

    Thanks David, appreciated.

    Do you play with your right hand only in one place? (I assume you are right-handed, because I have to assume one or tother... ) If so, could you arrange a mount with the pickup above the strings? I've intended to do that with my Aria Sinsonido for years, and never got round to it.

    Cool - though I think I'd rather a fiver. Does anyone do a bass uke five-string?
  12. alyctes
    Quite. "Custom" in the way that the results of dysentery are "custom" - unusual, for sure, but you wouldn't want to encourage it or spread it about.

    Unmodified, but lots of new parts·...

    If I bought it I'd only defret it... probably just as well I'm skint

    If I was made of money, I'd definitely have one of these Apart from the temptation to fit wheels and an engine, that is. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bass-Balalaika/223092154232?hash=item33f1541f78:g:Z98AAOSw-2dbQgBN

    Martinez? Not a name I know. Evidently long out of business. I'm fairly sure of two things here: - it's overpriced by about £100; - it dives like a loon. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Martinez-Fretless-Bass-Used-Excellent-con-5-piece-thru-neck-w-mahogany-body/113187459271?hash=item1a5a7f90c7:g:z~UAAOSwW3dbaW4t

    Unique, I am sure. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Eagle-Custom-Bass-left-handed/253798679216?hash=item3b179482b0:g:Qj0AAOSwH4dbZxQ1

    Or a shop...
  21. alyctes
    That's a much more sensible approach
  22. alyctes
    Currently 43. Peak was 57. (plus an EUB, an Ashbory, some other stuff). I need more space.
  23. alyctes
    Where are you based?
  24. alyctes
    Does it stay in tune decently? I am blessed with a singer who would rather buy some stupid electric tuning jobby than an instrument which stays tuned...
  25. alyctes
    Lots of people looking for the limelight, that's the ugli truth.
