Looks like they got an offer - ended due to error in the listing

I have never really seen a cheap Alu neck Kramer, I’d be curious to see how much it goes for. One thing to be aware of is that the nut is built into the neck, so you won’t be able to flip the nut around on the lefty neck. Maybe not too much of an issue since it has a zero fret. The Dukes used to be cheap enough, not seen one for a while.

Ordered mine, let’s see what happens this time!

I wrote to Amazon Customer Service to get an explanation (why cancel my order and get the book back on sale within 2 weeks) - and got none, really. The book is however no longer on sale by Amazon.

They were a trio of course in the Three Imaginary Boys era. Songs like Boys Don't Cry and Killing An Arab. We play 10:15 Saturday Night.

I got the cancelation email too. Ah well.

Very nice. Was tte whole body refin’ed? Or just the area around the bridge pickup? Looks seamless.

Hohner B-bass.

There’s an old GMR thread on here (photos long gone) - maybe useful info and the builder is (was) on here it seems.

So What? - The Cure

I have to say I use reverb exactly like that, when I experiment with sound and atmospheric textures. I have never thought of using it (in lower doses) as an always on effect, I will try that.

I think it’s when you’re trying to sell your bass. Lots of mojo 🤓

Placed an order today, at £15 it sounds silly not to. Don’t really mind when it arrives, as long as it does (before I lose my eyesight 😂 😎)

I was following this thread but only recently got a bat headless bass. Less popular end of the market, it’s a Hondo Alien bass. In any case, I am interested in getting an extension for it. Is there a guide to make your own? Or where can I get a ready made one from? I may get a leg rest instead/as well. Can these be bought on their own?

Nope, the postage is £99.99.

😳😵 Thanks for the heads up. I’ll be careful with mine (essentially never change the strings again 😂)

Yes, if there is a bolt on Hohner, then I would think that should be the OP’s starting point!

I was looking for a travel bass too and wanted a Hohner (I would have kept it in one piece though, it’s to keep in the camper van). I ended up getting a Hondo Alien bass, it’s dead ugly, but similar footprint, and it is a bolt on. An additional bonus for me is that is has an aluminium neck, which I think is great for a travel bass (albeit heavier). Maybe an option for you instead of hacking a nice bass?

Well, it would appear I am the victim of some clever marketing ploy. I learnt something today!

Stop right there. yes, you need special strings for acoustic basses.

Welcome! And good to see such enthusiasm.

I have a creaky door that sounds a bit like that.

@pete.young I think that is the tipping point where you need to decide if the cab should in fact go on top of the head 😳
