    [quote name='wilko_66' timestamp='1413646774' post='2580522'] Hi guys, Really sorry not been on in a while, loads of messages and stuff and feel like I've dropped the ball a touch. Yes it's still available and willing to ship to anywhere in the UK. Tbh, if it's London would be easier to drop it off myself for the price of the ticket (~£25) since I am in Bucks. Weight wise I don't know how much it weighs as I don't have scales, but I can certainly estimate. Held it up next to a 5kg bag of sugar (with a bit missing) and it weighs less than that, so I would guess somewhere close to 4kg. If it is important I will borrow some scales from somebody at some point. Have a good weekend all! Jamie [/quote] The old 'weigh your bass compared to sugar' trick; I now feel my bathroom scales are super accurate!

    If this had the beak I would have had it in an instant! Even so I'm still tempted, what does she weigh?

    This could be just what I am looking for after I shift my Thumb bass, I could well be i touch
  7. Kev
    Yes

    Okay, the headstock may be a little wonky, but otherwise that looks fantastic!!

    Yup, I love my Darkglass pedals, but the LEDs are just insane. Has anyone tried a TC Flashback Mini? Seems like a nifty little delay, is this tone print a gimmick or is actually good?
  10. Kev
    I often wonder, when effects builders see gigging boards with stickers covering the LEDs, why they don't either reduce the current going to LEDs to make them dimmer or just use dimmer bulbs. With exception to the whammy and the TFR, all the LEDs on my board above are stupid bright when you are above them.

    I'v obviously made it seem more complicated than it is! Don't have a photo as I don't have a bass with W locks at the moment, but:- 1. Put strap on bass as you normally would without strap locks. 2. Then, click the strap locks into the button as your normally would if they were fitted to the strap And that is all I mean. So the strap (and the weight of the bass) is actually on the buttons and not on the lock itself.

    At the headstock it is more of a D

    Not posted one in a while

    Little tip: when using the Warwick strap locks (or Dunlop, indeed any that click intro the strap button, rather than the Schaller type), don't fit them to your strap. Put the strap over the strap button as normal and then click the locks in place on top of the strap. That way, the bass strap is as secure as it would be if the strap lock was fitted properly, however all the pressure isn't on the strap lock and your bass will not go crashing to the ground if it does fail!

    Amazing instrument!

    No problem, Nick. I'll keep you posted

    Several offers on the table but nothing quite 'right' for meat the moment, but don't wait too long To answer a few queries that have come up:- Exact weight is 10lb 4oz according to bathroom scales I am happy to consider trades with cash my way and not just for other basses. Not interested in amplification but other gear could interest me. The neck has no dings whatsoever and the truss rod works with no issues. This is very much a Made in Germany model and currently retails over £2000 new I believe. I am happy to ship to the EU and beyond at cost.

    It makes me sad that I can't be the next owner
  19. Kev
    I wish i had the means to buy this, jaw dropped when I first saw this, incredible looking bass.

    [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1413225557' post='2576103'] But on a purely personal and subjective PoV my MiK Star Bass is a much nicer instrument to play than any of the MiG versions that I've tried. [/quote] How many MIG Star Basses have you tried??

    [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Up for sale I have this rather nice Warwick Thumb Bolt-On five string bass. I received [color=#000000]Received this bass yesterday as part of a 3 way trade deal on here. It was always the intention to move her straight on as I don't really have a use for it, so I am offering it up now for cash sale or trade (cash either way).[/color] [color=#000000]Nice example of a Thumb BO, built in 2000, superb condition, no dings to mention. Cracking bit of Ovangkol, with the grain typically shimmering differently depending on what kind of light you have on it. Great player with a nice low action and no fret buzz. Not weighed but seems around 10lb, will confirm if necessary. Comes in its original hardcase, a basic brown strap and a tin of wax. The JANII has its little tabs missing (I haven't seen one that didn't) but nothing to lose sleep over.[/color] [color=#000000]Full Specs:[/color] [color=#000000]Specifications: [/color] [color=#000000]Bass: Thumb BO [/color] [color=#000000]5 string Bass [/color] [color=#000000]Year: 1990 [/color] [color=#000000]Neck Wood: 3 pcs.
