  1. Patience, and a decent taste in music............ But seriously, stick at the frustrating stage when you feel as if you are getting nowhere and all of a sudden one day it will click. The biggest hurdle is getting by this point. You can buy the bass the amp the tuner the tutor but you still gotta want it. Sounds like you've got everying to get going, so all the very best on your bass journey.
  2. Price or Trade Value : £995 Im in a situation where I really need some cash freed up and this is all that I can realistically let go. I'd tried to part with it a short time ago but couldn't go through with it but I've really no choice. It was a custom order for me and is only just built, it is number 166 I believe in the recently finished gallery on ACG site, spec is there too. Cost was over £1400 but I need some cash released so hence the total bargain, get a basically brand new custom bass for £995 Sounds and looks quite incredible. Comes with a gigbag. It's been played a few times at home by me and is with a gigbag. Post included in price to UK. I've attached two photos of my own to show I do actually have the bass, there's more on the acg site as Alan is a much better photographer than I am and I can't get any more uploaded for some reason. This is not what I was intending to do with this bass shortly after receiving it but I have no choice.
  3. [quote name='markbass555' timestamp='1414397993' post='2588793'] its even nicer in the flesh [/quote] Im just up the road from you, and im sorely tempted to ask about coming to see this; but I would leave without some money I think. I really love Dingwall super Js.
  4. [quote name='alembic1989' timestamp='1414708379' post='2592637'] Thanks Bassman. Yes you're right it is German built. I of course understand..there's a part of that really doesn't want to part with this Buzzard...I've grown to love it tbh..but like so many others before me I need to sell to raise some cash...and at the same time get (yet another bass...groan)....and you're right I might just say yes . Bassists huh....what are we like [/quote] So true man, never happy with what we have. Grass might be greener etc etc.. Still love this.

    SOLD

    That's a gorgeous finish. Have a bump
  6. I keep looking at this and coveting. Unfortunately I don't have enough cash.
  7. That's a gorgeous piece of kit. I'd offer my ACG but I'd be afraid you'd say yes and I might miss it. I've always loved these buzzards, specially the fivers. Pardon my lack of Warwick knowledge, but isn't it German built ?
  8. That's a beauty. If you haven't tasted from the ACG pie you gotta get some.
  9. That's a gorgeous blue finish.........
  10. That's pretty neat. Tempting too.
  11. Yes. I've a fiver in the mahogany and it's the best no fuss passive bass.
  12. The Boss ME 50b for me is the easiest multi effects around. Pretty bombproof and has all switches and knobs to turn instead of annoying and confusing computer menus and switches which you need a computer degree to understand. You could pick one up on BC for about £100 or so. £269 new. I have tried the more complicated and I prefer simplicity now. It works for me and its a good starter. Obviously this is only my twist on it, others may hate this pedal but it's worth a look IMHO. Having said that I don't play one at the minute as I just use a behringer BD121 and a single chorus. It's simple and effective for all I need.
  13. [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1412601247' post='2570236'] A change of thought, I'm moving out and really need the money, if someone will buy this outright cash £2300 and it's yours! [/quote] This is so not fair. I have wanted one of these for the last five years and I'm skint.
  14. [quote name='ivyserpent' timestamp='1412280760' post='2567535'] Bump. [/quote] Watch the bump times. Or the mods will ave ya . . . . ;-) Cool bass, love the colour by the way. ��
  15. Thanks for the feedback, it's the first I've seen this. Interesting.
  16. Am I missing something obvious here as to why anyone would do this ? This was Midge Ure's bassist while playing Vienna at Ryder cup concert. A lefty bass and player but strung the wrong way round....
  17. [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1411572134' post='2560790'] Give in to your bassist instincts [/quote] My bassist instincts are saying 'buy' cuz I really want one of these. My matrimonial restraint is saying, 'eh wise up....!' 😬
  18. I had the five string rosewood version of this. Quite gorgeous to look at and play. Have a bump.
  19. [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1411500155' post='2560167'] Hopefully someone comes to claim it! [/quote] My resolve is weakening but I could do with avoiding a second divorce which is what would happen if I indulged myself in this without permission.
  20. Why is this still here ? It's playing havoc with my self control.
