  7. Again...
  8. Found this image again
  9. I bought an Ibanez RS940 (fretless) on reputation. Great tones (as per the reputation) however it also lived up to the "heavy" part of it's rep. Has a celeb following so you know it's a good bass. I don't play fretless - really shouldn't have bought it - another impulse buy!!
  10. Just my luck... Actually I found a site in the UK with the strings I wanted. https://www.rstmusic.co.uk/

      My first thought too. I hate winter. Bring back the sun!

      I don't mind winter, except for the short days.  Spring is the best, and it will start soon :)

  15. Check the prices for the Thunder 1A - five years ago you could find them for under £100 - they're now selling for upwards of £300 on eBay. The neck thru 11 and 111 series are now selling for £700+. Similar story with BC Nanyos which are finally starting to realise prices acknowledging how well built they are. Rarely see them for under £100 anymore - I think I've bought at least 4 in that ballpark. I think that both the above will be good investments for the future - if there is a future that is...
  16. I couldn't find the Fender strings in the UK which is why I eventually came across this vendor. You're right, it isn't just about the money - it's also about the availability of the item you're after. BTW, the fella in my nearest shop (Welwyn Garden City) is a knob - he's got more chance of 5hagging the Queen than getting my hard earned...
  17. Good basses...hard to gauge whether they're worth the asking price as the 6 series so rarely come up. Remember they were a comparative price to Wal when they first came out.
  18. I'd have bought this if I hadn't just acquired a 5er... My timing off again...

      Hopefully, covid conspiracy theories are also on the list of topics not worth bothering about.
