  1. I think so mate. Maybe check the Pirastro site first though
  2. Offers and trades considered as long as they are double bass related. If you are thinking of trading I can consider - gut strings; - light weight cabs for stage monitoring; - double bass stage mics or pickups like Ehrlund. But cash is king!
  3. Better photos uploaded. offers acceptable don’t make me put them on eBay now….
  4. Thanks mate. Same to you with your Eudoxas: magnificent strings at a fantastic price.
  5. G and on D sold. Only the 2 month old D string is left. D string (2months use from new) as above £120. Reduced to £100!…Now £90 kind regards
  6. Great strings! Good luck with the sale.
  7. Bought a load of used double bass strings from David and was very impressed by his honesty and communication. Great all the way!
  8. I have had one for years and it is such a great instrument; it does all the small gigs, all the classrooms, all the workshops, it’s so easy to carry and a joy to play. As a working tool, I think it really is an investment.
  9. I’ll take that sir. I shall pm you. kind regards
  10. This is such a wonderful bass. It will become a pedigree bass and an investment in time, but for now, a thoroughly excellent sounding, easy to transport bass. For anyone wishing to upgrade their student bass, this is way better than anything else in the price range, because of sound and construction, but also because it is made in England by a wonderful man (Paul) and will increase its value in years to come. Good luck with the sale! (I wish I had the money!)
  11. I’ve listed these elsewhere, though frankly I’d much rather sell them to a lovely basschatter and lower the price to a nice offer, rather than paying fees on the other site. Thanks for reading.
  12. Open to offers on these guys.
  13. Reduced to £50. I am (marginally) better with German, so this carbon fibre French bow is up for grabs. I cannot remember a thing about it sadly, apart that it is carbon fibre and probably a student level (I.e. decent, but definitely not a sublime stick). Only used at home and very little at that, it has a couple of light scratches on the stick as per photo. I have a tube to post it and postage is free in the U.K.
  14. Brilliant tool this! Tried and tested in many environments on double bass and it’s a dream.
  15. Gold Spring Vintage G and D are now sold. The brand new pure gut G and D are still available.
  16. Added the Gold Spring Vintage to the listing.
  17. Both sets still available at the moment
  18. Of course. I shall message you.
  19. I have only only the fantastic Aquila pure guts D and G left. The Gold Spring D and G are now sold. * pure gut D and G (brand new in packet). I got these and never put them on my bass, and I’m realising now that probably I don’t need them. They cost € 170 + Vat = € 204 (the postage and import tax would cost you loads on top of that!), so you would be probably looking at 200GBP once you import them. I think £180 posted is a good price (U.K. postage I mean). here is the Aquila page https://aquilacorde.com/en/shop/modern-instrument-string-sets/double-bass-en/double-bass-g-d-set/double-bass-natural-gut-g-d-set/ * Aquila Golden Springs Vintage D and G SOLD! (gut wrapped in nylon, exact reproductions of the Golden Spirals of Scott LaFaro and Charlie Haden. The D has 3 months of use and the G is 4 months use on one bass. They go for €220 + Vat + shipping as above. I think £150 posted would be good). Happy to entertain offers! Thank you for looking and reading.
  20. Great piece of gear: it’s serving me excellently well in every type of venue. Plus great seller!
  21. Still available. In the unlikely scenario that anyone needs my opinion: Great low tension alternative to Spirocore. I liked that they have none of the harshness and yet they are still in that sonic ballpark. So they are very present in the mix without being a bit too much. If I were to ever go back to steels, I might well get another set of these. They are very easy on the hands, which is such a great advantage when using steels. I found them easy to bow, although I hardly ever bow, and Pirastro considers them pizz strings. Any question please ask.
