    I've lost enthusiasm for selling this stellar bass. Keeping it as it destroys everything else in it's price range.

    Thinking about it he is a David Brent character but more metal and LA in flavour...

    For an extended riff on the self funded and ultimately futile vanity tour, see the David Brent movie...

    Never tried the short scale version, but Thomastik flat wounds are soft as you like (but not too soft), sound great, feel very smooth and last for aeons.

    Hope you're enjoying the XL2! Sounds like you're enjoying the XL2! Awesome basses. Thoroughly recommended instruments and as rare as you like folks...

    Only have great memories of this place. Would turn up most Saturdays in the mid eighties and work my way through (really nice) Warwicks, Statii, Jaydees, Wals, Alembics, Pedullas, the odd Steinberger and a brace of Zons for a few hours through a Trace stack, then head home to continue my A Level revision. Staff were never less than accommodating to a youth who clearly could only afford a pack of strings, especially the fellow with the massive mullet. LOVED that place.

    I'm Steinberger free at the moment but given available cash, I would jump on this in a heartbeat. I had a transitional XL2 and it was a beast. A very, very playable beast

    Yes ,a big factor is the demise of the pound. A lot of the more expensive gear is brought to the board from EU collectors/sellers. I often see prices in Euros that would have been appealing 2 years ago, but nowadays they're simply not worth considering for British buyers.

    Ooooooo...that takes me RIGHT back to Wapping, 1986. Teenage me used to drop into the bass centre of a Saturday and work my way through the Wals, Jaydees, Zons, Alembics and the Statii. Always loved the Statii ...through a hot Trace Elliott 4X10, natch...

    Another vote for the Classic - I've owned 90s Stingrays and have tried a lot of the new ones and find the Classic a much better bass in tone and playability. The fingerboard radius is 7.25 (or thereabouts) and is very comfy. 2 band tone is great too - controllable zing and a lot of thump!

    Gorgeous bass at astonishing price alert!

    Bass of choice for Adam Neely by the look of it...

    Indeed - these are fantastic basses. The tweak of the slab body to tummy cut/ elbow contour only makes it more desirable I think (and of course Shuker is a top notch choice for the mod). Very classy bass. They have astonishing necks and the two band pre is extraordinarily versatile. I had one that could go from really sweet and useable edgy stingray tones to Chic to deep P dark low middy thump with a twist of the tone knob. GLWTS!

    Can I just say that is the coolest bass on the forum
  24. Cairobill
    I had one of these (although mine had an epoxied rosewood board). FABULOUS bass. I miss it! Hmmmm...

    Fabulous bass shop! In my experience they also manage to defy the 'dealer sells more than private' rule. I bought an as new Roadworn Jazz from them for 650 quid just over a year ago Excellent place to buy a bass. And if your gear needs a fix or a mod, they're top notch.
