  1. Apologies for the delay - the original mint hard case (SKB type) can be included for a total price of 650£, shipping included
  2. Is that a Hipshot bridge? Any trades?
  3. I have been surprised by how versatile my Dingwall Super JP is.
  4. I'll second all opinions of trying as much as you can. I also found that it is important to go past the honeymoon period, which in a shop is impossible by definition. So I also became a BC buyer (then seller) to get my hands on as many basses as possible, try them at home, see if I still love them in the long run. 20% were mistakes; 60% were great at first but not keepers after a few months; 20% I still have. You lose a bit of money (shipping, differences in buying/selling price), but you get to know all kinds of basses really well - for me, it was worth it.
  5. Needs new owner - some tentative offers but still here
  6. I like Laklands a lot. The biggest difference I've found in Skylines compared to the US versions is the neck - which is rather sublime in the American exemplars. The necks on Skylines are perfectly fine in any case. There may be plenty of other small quality improvements here and there, but the neck feel was the most obvious.
  7. Hi FS now a stunning ACG Finn custom with an RFB (MM-style) pickup, piezo and U-retro East preamp (replacing the original filter pre). Side amber LEDs, low battery indicator. Details here: http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0043-finn-4-string/ Scale is 34". Nut width is 40 mm. Note the woods are quite unique - bubinga fretboard! The top is jawdropping too. Wonderful bass, just not getting enough playing time. Quite a beauty! Mint condition. Shipping included to EU. Cash price is 1100£. Thanks!

  8. Love my Dingwall - but I would not recommend switching to 5 strings and fanned frets at once. Also, fanned frets are super easy on the first 12 frets - not so much up the dusty end, so if you go there frequently you may want to try before you buy. Another advantage for me of Dingwalls are the banjo size frets.
  9. Cheers Roy! Cool retro pic! 😃
  10. [quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1437722607' post='2828427'] THIS!! [/quote] This is all very true, however if someone posts asking for an order of 7 pedals (so quite a few thousand combinations possible) I think saying 'whatever sounds good' is somewhat misleading and a bit lazy. In most situations, some effects typically work better in a certain order, unless your style is experimental noise (in which case you probably wouldn't need any help from a forum). Just my 2p.
