  1. Nice ash body. Is it 60s pickup spacing?
  2. I like it. I used to gig a Moon JB4. It was a heavy beast but boy did it sound good.
  3. Jon made my P5 about the same time as yours. Mmmm maybe I should get Dora a sibling?
  4. Wheels and brakes work fine. I will courier at cost or meet within reasonable driving distance of Newton Abbot.
  5. A single-cab solution for those who like loud and clear. Very easy to carry by one person, as it is only 21.3 kg. 600w. I've had it paired with my EBS Reidmar 750 for about five years now. Comes with a Roqsolid cover. Signs of wear and tear, but working perfectly. I'm only selling because I'm getting older and quieter. I will courier it at cost (probably less than £25). Or meet within an hour's drive of Newton Abbot. I'm coming up to the Thames valley for a short visit soon, if that helps. I'm not needing anything on the trade front at the moment.
  6. Eeek. I've just pulled the trigger on a new darling (almost without warning) due to a sale ending within hours of me finding out about it. So, I need to fund my new purchase and have had a look round my modest collection and feel that this baby, that I only got from Gear4Music last year, is to be the sacrificial lamb. I've had several Ibanez basses over the years but this is the best sounding one IMHO, and that's probably down to the Nordstrands instead of the Barts. It can range between suprisingly old school to cutting rickiness with the appropriate controls selected. I have added new Dean Markley SR2000 strings a few months ago and I've been gigging it regularly. I don't have a case for it, but funnily enough what I use for it is an electric guitar gigbag, which it fits. I don't know what it weighs but it really is very light. I can't imagine there are many (non travel) five-string basses weighing less. It's in pretty good nick too. Now here's the bad news: I'm on holiday 8 to 25 July, so I can't despatch it until I get back. I will be getting my messages all the time I'm away though. More info can be found here on the Ibanez website.

  7. I'm happy with my EUB, yet have a yearning to play a nice wooden wonder. I've had a couple in the past at under a grand each. I've not followed the market on upright acoustic basses, so need advice on what budget to achieve a mechanically sound and easy'ish action, nice sounding bass. Extra info: I will want it for playing in the genre of folk/singer-songwriter music. Plus; blue or black would be my preference over dark wood finish.
