  1. BN10 200x...Barely used pair..Used mainly for occasional big-band work....Unfortunately for me, they're 8 ohms[each] so can't mix & match with my other cabs for my soul gigs..Currently residing in a small Laney cab which can be included in sale [or not]....Ideally would trade for a couple of 4/16 ohm 10s, neo or not, minimum 100 watts each or maybe a 1x12 horn cab.....Collect only but I do get around so delivery possible..
  2. [quote name='artisan' timestamp='1465386868' post='3067714'] I'm sure you are quite correct & mine was just a one off dog. What really got me was that Chris didn't want to put it right.When I spoke to Martin on the phone he said that the body should be replaced as the neck pocket was cut far to deep,Chris however thought it was acceptable. I had to put yet more shimming into the neck to get the bass set up correctly,in all there was 4.2 of shims in the neck pocket,you could actually see that the neck was sitting at an angle with little wood to wood contact. When I bought the bass new I just assumed it needed a truss rod tweak & waited until I put a new set of strings on. To say I wasn't impressed is an understatement,I thought I had bought a top quality bass,apparently not. I ended up trading the bass back to the shop I bought if from,loosing £400 in the process. I wish I'd taken it further with hindsight. [/quote]..............................So much for Overwater always thought they sounded sterile anyway.
  3. Apparently for pick-up only..
  4. [quote name='Daz39' timestamp='1455539081' post='2979939'] I wouldn't trust a courier with anything more complex than a book: I've read the threads (not just this site). It has valves and electronics in, not worth the risk of damage and then the lengthy and protracted compensation battle, or negative feedback if it arrives in a worse condition than it was sent. [/quote]....................Good job we don't all subscribe to that point of view otherwise there would be very little in the way of commerce, and I guess fleabay wouldn't exist ..
  5. [quote name='fiatcoupe432' timestamp='1463079635' post='3048452'] After a while a purchased this the original plastic fretlines (some of them ) where coming off and I used to get pissed off when I would play and suddenly I would hear a fret buzz (on a fretless?)so I have decided to replace the original plastic fretlines with dark wooden one by a luthier in York who did a great job .buy with confidence,great sounding bass for nlityle money [/quote]...........................Thanks for that Buddy..
  6. [quote name='visog' timestamp='1462558778' post='3044084'] Can you clarify, "fret markers replaced with darker ones"? [/quote] ............as the pics show, the fretlines are near invisible - I've no idea how this was achieved as there's no obvious sign of the board being messed-with...Will explore further..
  7. Traded this with Fiatcoupe about 10 weeks ago; Sadly,my fretless skills appear to have deserted me, so here it is...Condition is excellent - very minor wear to fretboard & the fret markers were replaced with darker ones prior to my owning it - the side dots are still intact.....No issues..Viewing encouraged...px possible- Tobias5/TRB5 mk1/Peavey Foundation 5 [rosewood].....Includes Hiscox case.. apologies for the iffy pics- dunno why; more on request....WF5 0JY..................more pics as requested [shiny Ebanol is not the easiest thing to picture!] - although there are some strings marks, they are purely surface ones - the board is totally smooth top to bottom..Neck is straight & true, truss-rod works both ways...
  8. WoW! Understated beauty - had it been a 5'er...........
  9. Could you be more specific about the weight? 6kgs = 13ilbs - bit of a backbreaker....ta
