Ok Chris, thank you. PM coming up.

Gamut Lyon G and Gamut Pistoy D. both medium gauge. Best gut strings on the market! 8 months use. I prefer to sell together. Price new would be £85 for the G and £150 for the D plus lots of money for shipping and import duties from the US, so I think the price is fair. The Stings have been well maintained and regularly oiled when required so they have a long life left in them. the photo is of them mounted on my bass, but if you want I’ll take photos of them separately off the bass. Selling because I am switching that bass to wrapped guts and synthetics and I have spare gut strings in the house if I want to go back to them. Free U.K. postage

And Lodekka knows about basses, he is a wonderful player, professional and man, so please consider his comment as very true indeed. I do not unfortunately possess a spare £3,5 grand, but otherwise I’d be seriously thinking about it. Roberto.

Dictum bass wheel 10mm shaft, brand new. I’ve had it in the house since before lockdown but I have never used it for obvious reasons... then I tried it today and discovered it doesn’t fit my bass. It costs £42 plus international postage from Thomann, so I think £40 posted to the U.K. is fair.

Price reduced to £150 posted to bring it down lower to what they fetch on eBay used.

Oh, In fact, I do have a 9v power supply I can add if you need it. Also, postage (uk) is included.

£150 U.K. posted Used with the upmost care hence in wonderful condition. Does not have a 9v power adapter but you can get one of those for cheap on eBay, or you probably already have one...

£40? if you play Spiros, just buy the A and E and get these practically new which means big savings... or you can use them as excellent spares... All the best

I use Spirocore E and A and plain guts on D and G. currently the plain guts are Gamuts: wonderful. but I am also a big fan of Dlugolecki and I like Chordas too. The slaps were for my spare bass, but I don’t strictly need them anymore.

Oh sorry I just noticed you asked for a comparison with the Carlos Henriquez Chorda, in which case I do not know: I have only played regular Chordas.

Chordas are slightly higher tension and slightly bigger in diameter. The slaps stay in tune a bit better.

Thomastik Spirocore G and D practically new. These come from a full set of Spiro S42 that I tried to sell with no luck, so I only installed them for 10 minutes to do a comparison sound, then I kept only the E and A. £50 for both G&D posted to the U.K.

Replied. Now only the gut D and G are available.

I’ll split the set if someone fancies A & E as a pair for £70 and D & G as a pair for £160

NOTE: I can split the set as follows: - A and E for £70 - SOLD - D and G for £160 Only a couple of weeks on my bass as per proof in the photos. I was experiment with sounds for a new work coming up and this sound was not suited to it. Other than that, wonderful strings: good quality guts, very low tension, yet good acoustic volume. Super easy to play, A and E very well balanced to the gut G and D. postage included. Price of theses trig S is £280 so save yourself £50 for basically new strings! thank you

Lots of people have been asking for sound and video: here’s both

I really prefer not to trade, but I would consider something I would probably proceed to sell on as part exchange. Not ideal, but extreme times and all that...

If anyone wants to make me an offer on these new Spirocores, please feel free.

This lovely bass is now in every online “market” I know of, so hopefully I can send to a lovely home soon. It’s probably the best you can get at this price point, in fact I’m pretty sure it’s worth more, but it’s not the time to be fussy.

Added photos

Brand new in box set of Spiro S42 cheers

There is interest in this beautiful Miller bass, but it’s still very much here, so here’s an end of summer bump, in time for live music and university courses to start soon! (We all hope!)

Well naturally I mean you pay the price of the bass minus the value of your amp

It’s an extremely nice one. Have a look
