    If weight is likely to be an issue you might want to check how much the Wenge is likely to weigh.

    Martyn bought my much beloved Spector NS2000. We'd previously traded for my Spector NS94 - this was as equally a smooth transaction. Martyn confirming that he is an asset to this forum - trade with confidence.

    Just started a new course of antidepressants...

    I couldn't function with the previous ones - these supposedly have fewer side effects but the list is far from short...including a deterioration for the first 5 days!! Minimum course is 6 months.

    The thought of this is making me depressed.

      I've been waking up after less sleep of late; I think it's probably down to inaction during lockdown.

      Hope the new pills work!

      Hi Mick, just seen this post. Sorry to hear of your troubles - I reckon the general state of the world at this time is getting everyone down to varying degrees. Hope the meds work, but take some small comfort in knowing you're not entirely alone - as Captain Tom says "Tomorrow will be a better day."

      It seems to be quite an inexact science, always an element of 'suck it and see' involved. I have noticed improvements in a change of meds, but never felt fully sorted. In fact I need to call the Dr. today- I had to stop therapy because my home situation was so bad for a couple of years that they couldn't tell what was what. The dust hadn't settled on that mess before the world got so weird no-one can tell what's what! Still, one must to do whatever one can.

    Another bass that I'm parting with as part of my clear-out/ downsizing. Acquired here IIRC - I'm not a fretless player, much as I'd like to be, so this needs to find a new home. Not sure of the history behind this - you don't see too many of them in blue - normally in Orange. I emailed a number of shops, etc in an attempt to find out how many were made in blue - nobody seemed to know and it was suggested that it was made for a show then sold on afterwards. No idea how much truth there is in this and I'm happy to amend this post if others know more. Here are the specs from online: https://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-dept/bass-guitars/modern-bass-guitars/spector-bass-spectorcore-4-piezo-lined-fretless It's currently wearing some flatwounds of unknown heritage. I'll get more photos done over the weekend

    I had this up for sale earlier this year as an "either/or" sale - this and an NS94. The plan was to sell one, keep the other. Both basses are excellent examples of Stu Spector's fine work and, if anything, were advertised "too cheap". I can honestly say that I wouldn't be selling this if I could keep hold of it. I've got a few health problems currently which are "forcing" the sale of a number of my basses/amps/cabs. Watch the For Sale threads for details of the clear out. As anybody who has ever owned one of these would agree, you'd be hard pushed to find anything of similar quality for the money. I'm asking £325 which is closer to what similar items have sold for recently.

    Spend a few quid and cover it....I loved that blue snake skin TE that was for sale here earlier this year - properly eye catching - lots of veneers available on ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1311&_nkw=veneer+sheets&_sacat=4713&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=4713&_dmd=2&_odkw=bass+guitar

    Looks like translucent paint so might be a high end model, 320 possibly?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SGC-Nanyo-Bass-Collection-Guitar/174374672789?hash=item28998a5995:g:uN8AAOSww9RfJbdI

    Just got my AH300 back from the Amp Tech - "dodgy" (sorry if that's too technical for you) socket on the back now repaired. Said Amp Tech now in possession of my AH150 with a dry joint issue. This is ridiculously underpriced...GLWTS
