  2. I would happily tell she's in astonishing condition if she would allow me to buy this

  4. FENDER ROAD WORN JAZZ BASS - SUNBURST - 2013/14 Reduced to £775 Posted!!! No Trades Please!!! Another bass that has to go due to reducing my collection, it's in great condition and one of the best looking "roadworns" I've seen. You are welcome to try it out in Bridgnorth, Shropshire.
  5. Purchased a neck from Tom, it was very well packed and perfect for my little project. Many thanks
  6. Definitely great for a candlelight carol service! they are a godsend on badly lit stages as well. Yes the sound is very balanced across the strings, and the variety of tones is immense on these higher end Ibanez's.
  7. The LED's are down the edge of the board and are a sort of yellowy white, they look really nice and attract quite a few favourable comments. They are great for people of my age because my eyes aren't what they were. Here's a better pic.
  8. Brian purchased an Ibanez bridge from me and it couldn't have gone smoother, great communication and a very pleasant transaction throughout. Cheers.
  9. Your more than welcome to come round and try it MoJo
  10. Sold my American Standard Precision to Charla, great communication and a pleasure to deal with. Cheers Brian

    I can say that Kevin is a great person to deal with, great communication throughout. Highly recommended, and a great BC'er.
  12. Thanks for the heads up Roman, I shall look into it, and yes it is in great condition, I've seen some that look like they've been run over by a tank sell for £600 - £800 on eBay.
  13. IBANEZ SR1200 Premium with LED's and Gotoh Drop D Tuner SOLD!!! This bass in superb condition, with just a little belt rash on the back, it has a lovely slim neck which is very easy to play, weighs just 8 pounds, and balances nicely. It’s been upgraded with retrofit LED's from Martin Sims (£450), and also has a Gotoh Drop D tuner (£100). The sale includes the original Ibanez case which is also in superb condition, and even has the original booklet.. This really is a bargain, especially with over £500 worth of upgrades. I live in Bridgnorth, Shropshire, and you are welcome to come and try it out. It comes from a smoke and pet free home. Thanks for looking. Edited to say: No Trades Please
  14. Very light!!! This weighs exactly 7lb 8oz.
  15. Fender Road Worn 50's Precision Bass - Sunburst 2015/6 £795 Posted!!! SOLD!!! I'm having a proper clear out of most of my basses because I want to get down to just two gigging basses, I've sold quite a few recently and this is another that has got to go. It comes from a smoke and pet free home, and has not been gigged, so it's in great "roadworn" condition. If you can get over to Bridgnorth in Shropshire, you are welcome to try it out for yourself. The original Fender padded bag and all the case candy is included in the sale.
  16. Sola-Sound Tonebender Fuzz Pedal 1975!!! £495 Posted SOLD!!! This pedal is dated 30th October 1975 and is in extremely good condition for a pedal that is 43 years old, far better than most of the examples you will see on eBay and vintage sites. I purchased this pedal from Macari's in London in 1975 and it has never been gigged, in fact I have hardly ever used it because I am a bass player (allegedly), not a guitarist. There are a few sound clips on YouTube of these pedals which will take you back to what fuzz is supposed to sounds like.
  17. Done!
  18. Ouch! Seriously though, I've always included my location since 2010, but like most members, it disappeared when the site was upgraded and I keep telling myself I will have to re-add it, sadly being an old git, my memory is not what it used to be, but I will actually do it now before I forget. Now what was it I was going to do?
  19. Your probably right, and I don't mind which method they choose, but I think it's something that would enhance the site.
  20. The 'Leave Feedback" which is ringed, is a suggestion that I knocked up a little while ago, I just think that if every member is given a feedback link, it would just make it easier.
  21. Exactly, or in the box that pop's up when you hover over their name, like in the example I uploaded
  22. The pic is something I knocked up as a example of what I think would make it easier for leaving feedback. I have sold and purchased probably in excess of fifty items on BassChat over the years, if I search "the brig" in Feedback, nothing comes up, I managed to find one feedback thread for myself by going through page after page, and when I did find a feedback thread for myself, there are only four posts in it. Now I'm not too bothered about feedback for myself, but I do like to leave feedback for others and I just wish there was an easier way of doing it. The new site is great, I just think that it's a pity it hasn't been made easier to leave feedback.
