  1. Cheers lads After a wee chat on saturday with mark at Bass Direct, i have an IGIG G15 in tweed on its way to me, so as im £160 lighter the ritter double bag is going up shortly -lee
  2. [quote name='Doddy' post='633927' date='Oct 22 2009, 10:20 PM']I'm endorsed by iGig so I'm a little biased,but they really are the best gig bags I've used. I use a Tweed G515,which has loads of storage space and great protection. The G525 has less storage and is a slightly tighter fitting case. They're both great. They're expensive but worth it.[/quote] Cheers for the comparison!! I did love the look of the suede G525 but i dont think you can get them here!,mind you my ken smith has a wide body so the bigger G515 is probably more what im after, am going to call Mark at bass direct at the weekend, and see if he,s got a tweed G515. Thanks mate - lee
  3. Thanks for the thoughts guys Ive been reading up on IGIG bags and they look great (especially the tweed) so im probably going to go for that as it has similar protection to the mono, but has lots of storage, perfect!!!!! i have a ritter double gig bag which is fantastic, but im thinking of moving it on to help fund the IGIG - lee

  5. Hi Everyone I have to stick my 2p in here, i bought this bass from new back in 2003 and has been around the world, it has a fantastic funky sound and is incredibly versatile, a lot of diffrent tones are available, and is a great looking instrument, whoever buys this will not be dissapointed, it was recently upgraded with the just a nut 3 and at £500 shipped is a total bargain, this is a pro instrument(its certainly seen a lot of pro gigs) for not a lot of money, these are roughly £1500 new so once again a bargain!!. Really sorry he,s not keeping it, but rest assured Josh is a complete gentleman and a pleasure to deal with in every way ( just watch phoning him, coz itll cost a fortune,you could chat for hours, got a telling off from the wife when we got our bill ) if i had the cash i,d have this back and defret and epoxy it. Anyway huge bump for a fantastic bass and a great bloke, good luck with the move Josh- all the best - lee

  8. Hi Everyone This lovely fellow has just given me a couple of d,addario b strings, he even paid the postage himself, what a gent, thanks Nathan - lee
  9. Hi Everyone, im looking for a new gig bag for my ken smith and have discovered the harvest one id love is just too expensive at the moment, ive narrowed them down to the gig skinz and the mono m80, im aware the mono is probably better protection wise but ive not heard a lot about the gig skinz which is cheaper and has a lot more storage, i need a 2u rack too, so if i get the m80 the budgets gone. If anyone can share with me thier thoughts on either of these bags i,d greatly appreciate it, thanks a lot - lee

  18. Hi everyone I will definately be going, but ill be on me own so if anyone wants to say hi and natter please feel free, (ill be the guy with the bouqet of roses ) - lee
  19. [quote name='Dubs' post='623967' date='Oct 12 2009, 01:53 PM']It only has 1 instrument input. The other inputs are 3.5mm Aux input, MIDI in (and out/thru), and a Variax input. I don't know what it would do if you had a Variax bass and normal bass plugged into it at the same time though [/quote] AAHH cheers for that, i did look it up, seems its not what i want after all!! thanks again - lee
  20. I note that this has two inputs, does that mean, you can plug in two basses and switch between them, if so i may be slightly interested - lee

    (SOLD)

    Hi Everyone After buying a fretless i couldnt really afford and needing a high quality gigbag for my new Ken Smith, ive reluctantly decided to move this on, i bought this a few months ago and have used it on a couple of shows and it sounded great, its a CIJ 62 reissue fender precision in fiesta red, made in 2004 it features a lightweight basswood body, tinted maple neck with a very nice rosewood fingerboard, the previous owner fitted new CTS pots and jack socket (as per USA Fenders) and a kent armstrong hot vintage pickup, so has much nicer electronics than the standard Export Jap Fenders. It has recently been set up by Phil Hartley in Bolton and has been fitted with a set of D, addario chromes flatwounds (105-50) so plays great and sounds very warm and woody, the best thing about it is the neck its a lovely comfortable C shape and perfect for little fellas like myself who find Precision necks a bit too manly it has a lovely grain to it and i dont have to wax too much on the quality of these japanese Fenders. The condition is very good it has a couple of dings one at the back which cant be seen and a very small one on the neck joint, it will ship with a decent gigbag. I would like £350 including delivery, cheers everybody - LEE - THIS IS NOW SOLD!!!!!!

  23. [quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='613244' date='Sep 30 2009, 08:31 PM']NS Design site says black rosewood.[/quote] Aye it,s probably not ebony, i bought mine when they first came out, and they were advertising them as ebony, but rosewood is more likely, there was a lot of speculation on talkbass, about them having very cheap ebony fingerboards hence the dye, a bit of a pain when it comes off, but it doesnt look too bad! doensnt spoil a cracking instrument, great value - lee
  24. +1 Phil has worked on my basses for the past couple of years now, he,s very professional and conscientious (prob spelt wrong) and has done a cracking job giving my jazz a makeover, and the best thing is he lives about 5mins from my house, his price list is on his website, all the best - lee
