  1. What's pricing like? These will have to go a bit to come near Elixirs. I've tried a couple of others, DR Long Life (wooly), the D'Addario (?) ones, some cheapies from the US and none of them measured up to Elixir for long life.

    Gone.

    [quote name='molan' post='414799' date='Feb 19 2009, 09:58 PM']I know I'm gonna sound like a scratched record but I've played this bass &, as with all of Josh's choices, it's a lovely instrument [/quote] I concur, it's fab.
  3. [quote name='Machines' post='415749' date='Feb 20 2009, 08:21 PM']Has anyone else noticed this elsewhere ?[/quote] The Hartke LH500s have shot up over the past few months. One of my students got one fr £189 as did a few members here, they are way more now.
  4. The DD with a Fralin pickup will give you a JJ Burnel or a Jamerson type sound depending how you EQ your amp, as will the Jap Fender P. They'll both give you the sound you want but I'd say that the Lakland would have the better quality pick ups, the Japan P pup is a bit thin but some come with US pups. DDs are great basses as all all Laklands.

  7. Still available
  8. [quote name='yorks5stringer' post='408785' date='Feb 13 2009, 04:46 PM']I'm stripping a B2 and will not be using the existing pots/controls. Let me know if you need anything: having said that it is passive, they could be different and as the pickups are dead I have not tested what is the problem yet! Also had a dodgy tuner so replaced it but had to buy 4, have 3 spare tuners and 4 bridges too![/quote] Are you doing this up as a project?
  9. [url="http://www.status-graphite.com"]http://www.status-graphite.com[/url] - follow the link and your nose to find the double ball end strings - fab strings and brilliant value too. I'd suggest contacting Hohner and seeing if they can help. Tell them that that it's an older model with the XLR output.
  10. On hold pending the usual formalities.
  11. [quote name='GarethHD' post='405933' date='Feb 11 2009, 03:12 AM']I'm really looking for a 5 string one of these, but might be interested in this one if we can agree on a price. Would there be a deal on offer for cash, and does it come with a case or is it still in cardboard? cheers[/quote] Hi Gareth, It's brand new still boxed - maybe I didn't make that clear It doesn't come with a case. cash is what we're looking for, unfortuantely credit terms are no longer available. Price I'm advertising at is cash on collection or delivery can be thrown in. It's a brand new untouched bass and a hell of lot cheaper than anywhere. If you're really looking for a five string, go for one. Also there are usually a few of these knocking about on ebay. Why not go to [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showforum=3"]"Introductions"[/url] and tell us a bit about yourself!
  12. [quote name='Sandmann' post='399669' date='Feb 4 2009, 08:01 AM']i own the same bass only with a rosewood fretboard. these are incredible versatile and good sounding basses. good luck with the sale!!! sandmann[/quote] Fabulous instruments. I have a 55-02 as well so this is sort of redundant.
  13. No thanks. He just wants cash.
  14. [quote name='molan' post='401799' date='Feb 6 2009, 09:52 AM']There's a cheap listing option called something like 'picture pack' which gives you about 5 pics plus enlarged views etc. Looks really nice by the way [/quote] You can also add pics with the HTML feature by putting links in to where the picture is stored - it's similar to adding a picture file to a post on BC and you don't get charged the extra by the banditos that are the robbing ebay bastardos.
  15. This week... Steve Lukather. Going to see him next month in Southampton
  16. Dialling in the bridge pup gives a nice articulation to the sound that pleases my Jazzophile ears. :brow: If I didn't already have one I'd be buying this.
  17. [quote name='Bassassin' post='399990' date='Feb 4 2009, 02:10 PM']I remember this one. That's must've been a rrrrrrreal f*ckin' expensive battery... Jon.[/quote] Didn't I promise you first refusal on this one!? :blush: Maybe I should mention that a battery is included with the sale!
  18. As far as trades go I quite fancy a Lakland JO, BG or DJ; a Spector Euro LX4, a Sandberg with a P, a Sterling or maybe something else...
  19. [quote name='mrcrow' post='399008' date='Feb 3 2009, 03:02 PM']is that model very heavy? i like the headstock arrangement...and erm...you have the D string the wrong way round on the peg...i think be watching this one and a big bump from me cheers[/quote] It's very light, actually. [b][i]Previous owner[/i][/b] had the string the wrong way round on the tuner - these pictures were taken just after I got it. He also thought the bass was broken when in fact all it needed was a new pre-amp battery.
  20. Now relisted. Available for viewing/collection from Saturday 7th.
  21. [quote name='robertao' post='395934' date='Jan 31 2009, 06:44 AM']Would you ship to the US?[/quote] Yes. I'll have to wait until Monday to get a price for freight, though.
  22. One Vision - Queen Live and let Die - Wings/G'n'R Slotted them in while watching some stuff on BBC iPlayer
  23. [quote name='The Burpster' post='391146' date='Jan 25 2009, 07:37 PM']There are few B2As, they do a D-tuner model and 5 string ones too... Also different colors.... Any chance of a couple of pics? Oh and someone ought to give the ungrateful little blighter a kick in the shins..... FYI I had a B2B and it was a great little beast (before I sold it to Woolleydick) these are great fun.[/quote] This a 4-string in black with a D-tuner and is identical to mine so to preserve the integrity of the completely unadulterated packaging I'll take some pics of mine. [b]NB: These are pics of mine which is absolutely identical. The one for sale is still perfectly packaged as it was when it left the factory...[/b] originally bought from Thomann and I see they are over £540 quid there [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/hohner_b2adb_bk.htm?partner_id=73572"]B2ADB[/url]
  24. [quote name='budget bassist' post='391063' date='Jan 25 2009, 05:11 PM']Correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought the old ATKs were japanese made? A very nice bass none the less.[/quote] Some were but these mahogany bodied/maple topped ATK 400s were made in Korea. The ATK300s were ash bodied I think.
  25. I have this great Ibanez ATK (Made in Korea). It's a mahogany body with a figured top and has the J pup as well as the great 3-coil ATK pup. Anyone that knows these will atest to how damn good they are. I just don't play it any more. This has been readvertised due to me having been given duff information originally about the year of manufacture and the original buyer was specifically after a 1995 ATK. Thanks to some super detective work by kdphysio we now have the real history of this instrument. The ATK 400 was introduced in 2001 and was made until 2003, the serial number is W9109xx, which means 'world' factory (newest Korean factory), September (9) 2001 (1) and it was no. 9xx made of that month. Up for sale at £250
