link isn't working mate, also might be worth introducing yourself on the introduction forum *edit* just occured to me that the link might only start working at 7pm, so ignore that bit...

anyone coming to the harrogate bass bash by the way? there is a chance I can pop along and would love another lefty to be in attendance!

ooh I'm intrigued! send the manual etc whenever man, I'm in no particular rush!

I like that a lot more than I thought I would! List updated- perhaps if people create their own threads in the main forum about said basses and then I link them in the first post like with nevernever's? Just a thought, anyone have any opinion?

boomp. Pics soon. Promise.

[quote name='coasterbass' post='394611' date='Jan 29 2009, 02:48 PM']Because lefties are soooooo hard to find in shops can I suggest that we club together to start a 'try before you buy' collective? I know we're scattered all across the country but if, for example, someone was thinking about ordering/buying a Thumb 5, then they could come find me and try mine out. That type of thing...[/quote] Can't believe I missed this part of your post- this sounds like a great idea to me as long as the person trying goes to the owners house and we don't get any abuse of the system the other way round. The only bad point I can think of is that anyone coming to try out my stuff will undoubtedly make me cry with their skill over me

[quote name='whynot' post='393985' date='Jan 28 2009, 07:46 PM']Josh, I have some pictures of those marks. As I had the bass offered to me before you bought it. Let me have your email address if you've not taken pictures already.[/quote] ah many thanks, pm'd!

[quote name='lefthandedfrog' post='393774' date='Jan 28 2009, 03:57 PM']Hmmm ok... I guess it s not the piezo bridge model? The trade seems a bit unbalanced then... May i see pics of the dings?[/quote] What trade? Pics as soon as I can find that chuffing lead for my flipping phone. ARGGGGGHHHH WHERE DID YOU GO?

Just got this as part ex on the Bacchus as I originally thought i could do a McCartney on it. I could not. Really nice actually, thought it would be crap but is quite a good playing bass. Only damage of note is a crack on the control panel which is difficult to see if you're not looking for it and two screw holes, one near the pickups and the other near the neck. I cannot fathom what they are there for. Solid black with rosewood fretboard, tuners replaced with schallers at some point Pics when I can find my camera lead Thinking about £150 as there is very little info on them and but its a nice solid bass.

SOLD Finally. Thank ****

[quote name='lefthandedfrog' post='393047' date='Jan 27 2009, 06:49 PM']Eventually! How old is it? And how is the set up and feeling of it? I surelly could use a black beauty w/ a maple fingerboard[/quote] Don't think its too old, don't know for certain to be honest. As an absolute guess I wouldn't say any older than 2004. Its got 3 small dings (about 4mm each of them). As for set up, I've restrung it with elixirs and its great for slappin and fingerstyle too, but my new stingray is too similar to it for me to warrant having two of them which is why I'm moving this on. The neck is nice and small, although I've got used to chunkier necks so its not my thing anymore unfortunately. Really nice to play on, was my main gigging bass over my teal Ray before I got my Pre-eb, so i hope that gives an indication! Josh

urgh imagine buying strings <shudder> Saying that, looks pretty hot, though I could never have it strapped to my body due to my lack of adamantium skeleton

Any interest on the Sterling?
