  1. Yes, it's still available. I've not pushed it because in still in love with its tone. Having said that, I do have a GAS defecit to make good.
  2. Hi Dave. I reckon it can be done for £35. Thanks for asking. Phil
  3. VGC. The odd mark, but nothing too bad. Perfect working order. These sell for £299 new. Medium scale and medium in body size, so perfect for smaller hands and fingers. Buyer to collect from TQ9 6PA or meet 25 miles in your direction.

  4. It looks just like my Safran ... except it has two more strings and frets! This is a bargain.
  5. GAS has got the better of me so I need to turn this baby into cash. Don't miss this rare opportunity!
  6. Still sitting snugly in its box and hoping to be used by a new owner.
  7. Yes, I would like to know more, thanks
  8. Also open to trade in Europe too
  9. The GBP has weakened and I'm getting more enquiries from the States. However, they involve trades which would be fine if it wasn't for the import duty, vat and shipping fees. I'm open to UK trades for anything that can be sensibly moved on. I'm in no rush, but trying to make it easier for the next owner of this stupendous bass.
  10. I'm travelling around this weekend and can bring this with me if you want me to deliver it. I'll be around Berks, Dorset, Hants, Northants, Somerset and Surrey,
  11. Dropped price by £100. Pedulla have now announced they are not building any more, so this could positively affect future values
  12. In case anyone wants to try before you buy, I can bring this beauty with me whilst in in the home counties this coming weekend.
  13. Trades yes, but somewhat unlikely as all I'm interested in at the mo is a lightweight cab (ideally a PJB C4), an early 70s Jazz, and an electric Octave mandolin! But hey, maybe I'm missing something that I can't live without but just don't know about it yet!!! Phil
  14. Thanks for thinking this one through, Ray. My friend Steve is one of the guitarists in The Dead Can Wait. I'm coming up to the Reading area 3rd to 5th June, so it looks like we will miss you by a few days It nearly flew! Cheers, Phil
  15. Great, thanks Roger. Are you likely to venture a little further south of Northampton in the next few weeks? I'm coming up to Woking and Reading this month.
  16. Sure is, but some folk may travel that way for work or family. I used to whiz past Northampton regularly on the M1. But hey ho, if you don't ask...
  17. Bank Hol Bump for a high-end Preamp at a low-end price 😎
  18. This is a bit of a long shot but... I was the only bidder on a Washburn acoustic bass on eBay and much to my surprise I 'won' it. The only thing is, it is collection only, and I now live in Devon 😲. I just wondered if any kind Basschatter could collect it from NN2 6DH and I will come and collect from you if that can be done in the Berkshire, Hampshire or Surrey areas, as I am coming to these counties in May and June. Reasonable expenses paid or cash in kind (e.g. I have some spare unopened sets of strings). Cheers, Phil
  19. Easter Bunny Bump 🐰🐇
  20. For sale: one Bassics BPA-01 studio quality floor pre-amp. Pre-owned ones don't come up for sale very often but if you want a new one then Bass Direct sell these new for £425. You can look up all the specs and stuff but the big differentials over other pre-amps are: 1) it is AC powered 2) on the floor with stomp options 3) can take two instruments being plugged in at the same time (like a fretless or double bass) 4) genuinely studio quality Then there are the dials that will illuminate when activated ...very useful on stage! If you are not au fait with these then I can recommend this review by “Bass The World” but there are others out there. This one was previously used by David Bowie's producer, Tony Visconti (verifiable). He's still using a BPA-01 when he gigs but this one came back to Bassics because one of the LED knobs needing switching over, and a new replacement was sent because he needed it back fast. Knowing its creator, Malcolm Toft, I was able to buy it from Bassics. It is in very good condition but has been gigged, so there are a few minor marks.
  21. I purchased this brand new from a dealer one year ago, after trying it in the shop first. The tone is so much more full than a traditional 'A' shaped Irish Bouzouki. The preamp works well and it has a built-in tuner. Unfortunately, I've been too distracted by my mandolin, so I'm taking a Bouzouki Break. At first glance, it appears as new. However, if you look carefully there are signs of use. I have attempted to show its condition in these photographs. The strings are in a very good state and will not require placing in the near future. The set up is nice for easy fingering and chord playing. With a strap it balances nicely when playing standing up. At this point in time, it is collection only from TQ9 6PA, however if I can find a used hard case cheap I may be able to post it. I can even drive for about an hour in your direction for a handover, if that helps. 'Try before you Buy' welcomed. It sells for between £633 to £699 online, new. Here is the description you will typically find elsewhere: Ozark 2246 Bauzouki Electro Acoustic Guitar, Natural Overview This Ozark 8-string bouzouki features a unique guitar shaped body that produces extra volume and a rich tone. It has a solid Spruce top for great sound production and is fitted with a Fishman under saddle transducer and EQ. The regular width guitar neck joins the body at the 14th fret and has eight strings in four courses. It is a superb value instrument made from high quality materials with the close attention to design that is a feature of all Ozark instruments. Features Solid spruce top Solid mahogany back & sides Guitar shaped body Chrome diecast machineheads Wood binding Fishman under saddle transducer EQ and endpin jack Dimensions Length: 102 cm Body Length: 49 cm Upper Bout: 28 cm Lower Bout: 38 cm Depth: 11 cm
