Sounds a bit excessive to me, does that include the cost of the bridge too? Might be worth giving Peter at ME Strings in Monks Eleigh a call.

I don't think that's going to work, unless you're building a fretless. The fret spacings will be wrong, and you'd need to re-fret to 30.5" scale length.

Yeah, we get a lot of requests for that, probably because we do have a banjo player. It actually takes a bit of playing once you get past the first few bars. We do now have a banjo player who can probably play it, but as Pogues covers band we don't normally play anything they didn't record.

Not a tribute band, but a great name came up elsewhere in this forum: The Old Country Union, now sadly no more.

Yamaha THR10

Thanks both for pointing that out, I missed it.

As of tonight, it appears that Ebay have changed the way that sold listings work. If you include a link to an item for sale, it works fine until the item is sold. But then Ebay helpfullly redirects the link to something else which hasn't been sold, seemingly at random. See my TRB 4P for an example. The only way now to find the original item is to search for 'Sold Items' , and even then if you find the sold item and copy the actual link, Ebay still redirects when you include it in a web page. I think this is going to mean a lot of frustration and broken links in this forum.

I can't believe this. Even if you go to completed lists, search for yamaha, find the actual listing and copy the link that came up, when I posted it into this message it was STILL being resolved to the Washburn. "This item is sold , so here's something utterly unrecognisably different that we found instead!". Morons. Whichever halfwit at Ebay thinks that substitution is a good idea should be shot Anyhoo, it went for 500 quid, one bid.

Someone got a bargain!

Reckon Ernie Ball is right. I have a set which look identical on my Bass Collection fretless, 40 - 95. Think theyre these: https://ernieball.co.uk/guitar-strings/bass-strings/slinky-flatwound-electric-bass-strings#2815

I can only see the same as SpondonBassed. So can you get the indiividual LEDs to light up in sequence, so you know where to put your fingers?

The value of your submarine can go up as well as down!

These are very rare in 4-string guise, and this one looks to be in great condition with original case and a D-tuner. Someone please buy it so I don't have to! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-TRB-4P-Red-Sunburst-1992/142837173294?hash=item2141c24c2e:g:KbMAAOSwNu9bJ6N3

Superb work, congratulations. The battery holder looks like a very neat solution, where did it come from please?

I'll be playing with Waxies Dargle on the University of Suffolk Bowl Stage, rounding off the action at 7.00pm. Anyone else involved?

The GL 2500 Tribute that I used to own had 16.5mm string spacing. US models might be different.

It's Metal Mickey !! Boogie Boogie .

Some great suggestions here, most of which fail the 'cheap' requirement by some distance. I'd go with Bigwan's suggestion of the MS60B or B1on. There are a couple of OK synth patches, which can be surrounded in the chain with the other bits and pieces to make them work better ie octaver, EQ to help with tracking, chorus and delay to fatten up the sound a bit. Or you can chain together the various fuzz, envelope filter and octave effects. Another option might be the Ibanez SB7 in the Effects For Sale section. Or do the sensible think and buy a cheap keyboard synth.

Ha ha, so apart from the colour, the string spacing, the shape and the humbuckers, what have the Romans ever done for us 🙂 At least we can rule that one out then.

I like the idea - get in touch with your inner Hooky, so to speak. Here's an OLP. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232809502171?ViewItem=&item=232809502171 Mm. I quite like that colour, might buy it myself if I wasn't so busy trying to get my head around my new Weissenborn.

A couple more random thoughts: Schechter Hellcat VI, has a nut width of 42mm (so maybe too similar to the revelation?) Also OLP used to make a 30" scale instrument the OLP MM5, which looks more like a proper bass than a baritone guitar. Not sure on the neck width though, and these were discontinued some time ago when OLP was shut down so you might have to look for one on the second-hand market.

Available in Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large, and Made In Texas Medium.

You're welcome - I spelt it wrong, its www.noteflight.com .

It makes me think of 'Sheep may safely graze' by JS Bach, but it's not that. Is there a semiquaver missing after the 'dot' ? Not impressed with musipedia. Noteflite is much better. And has proper bar lines and time signatures.

Vintage V300, new for not much more than your budget, and second hand should be easily achievable.
