While you might not be being unreasonable I am sure they get thousands of requests of this nature and never hear from the person again.... Like when any of us tries to sell something online. I had a bass up for sale "can you record it playing through a distortion pedal please?" Errrrr why? Or the thousands of back and forth messages with people who then disappear when you try to confirm they will buy and pay.

Haha I just looked this morning out of interest. Some beauties there, has someone had a clear out??
-
I have had so little time to spend on this on really feeling quite guilty about it. I'll probably stick it up for sale in the next few days, with the bits to finish it off.

I had the cricket bat Hohner B2A with EMG pups. It was ace!! When I finally get my 80s band started... Later this summer I hope, I will probably want another. Though mine was active I loved the sound in passive.

It's a car boot sale though, so they say they want £200 and they'll have people offer them 50p and a pre-chewed Werthers Original then getting offended when they're told to sling it. Having said that.... At a vintage fair saw a nice Kramer guitar once. I think they wanted two grand "because of who it belonged to, wink wink" I was told. It was an Eddie Van Halen replica. B*blocks, can't be EVH's and can't even be pretending it is. I was right. They said it belonged to some bloke from a 70s rock band I'd vaguely heard of. As if that makes a budget Kramer, absolutely knackered, and with peeling decals to make it look like an EVH, worth more than £100.

Putting jazz bass ashtrays on a bon-jazz bass is an abomination. I cannot stand it when I see these. Otherwise, bass looks alright, because of unknown origins etc. I wouldn't pay more for that than the price of a new fretless Harley Benton

Go for it!! Best of luck for the rest of the treatment

+1 to this. It's a good album, very musical, and not just a bass assault on the ears, there is fast playing and obviously the bass is the star instrument, but it's done well IMO.

What's your name/ handle/ address on there, please?

It's a guitar amp! It's a bass amp! It's a Bluetooth speaker! It's a recording interface! It's a multi effect platform and amp simulator. Absolute class piece of kit for someone who wants a small form factor, multi instrument, practice amp. I dabble in a bit of electric guitar too so this is a great little bit of kit. You can edit the effects and amp Sims from your phone, download other people's patches... It's fantastic. Reason for sale: I've got a Headrush pedal incoming and I now use my Fender Bassman as a guitar amp as well as bass amp so the Positive Grid is getting less use these days. All in very good condition, one small scuff on the corner of the amp Rolex which I've covered with gorilla tape. Other than that it's excellent. I also have the carry bag which are about £40 new. Grab the lot for £100 (amp, PSU, bag). Photos to follow... Collection preferred. Will post via Parcel Force at cost (estimate £12.50ish) -
If you can get this repaired at a good price, or do it yourself, this looks like a bargain. https://ebay.us/m/wCGWEL

Suppose it depends how you cook them

Sadly I couldn't justify keeping these so both are now gone. Quality guitars and great value for money.

Ooooh that looks great! Unfortunately I need to be downsizing my basses. Kev is a great guy to deal with, I've bought a few basses from him over the years. -
I have no experiences of Moon basses unfortunately. I am on my second MIJ 75 reissue though. I stupidly moved on the first one rather than persisting, it was the best looking bass I've ever owned and it sounded very good, it was a maple board, butterscotch, gorgeous thing. I've now got a vintage white, rosewood board one and I've put LaBella flats on it. It's absolutely glorious through a valve front end amp. The neck profile feels pretty typical of a jazz bass to me. I can't say I've noticed anything different with it, it's not the slimmest I've ever used (Sandberg) or what I would call a baseball bat meaning a bit thick massive thing, the worst offender being a Warwick $$ and a comfortable but massive neck being an MIJ PB70. I also have a newish US Jazz bass and the neck profile feels similar, the finish is just different.
