  1. [quote name='Grendel' post='1349896' date='Aug 24 2011, 08:54 AM']location?[/quote] From previous posts I know he is in Germany, if that helps any?
  2. Update: I have put an interested BC'er in touch with Bo so this may be gone later today
  3. [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rickenbacker-4003FL-Fretless-Bass-BlueBurst-Finish-/150652694730?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item231399b0ca"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rickenbacker-400...=item231399b0ca[/url]
  4. I am advertising a six year-old Ashbory bass on behalf of the frontman in Rattlin Bone, Wily Bo Walker (who is also a bass player). Comes with case and three extra three sets of silicone strings (helpful, as they can be hard to get hold of and what's more cost £16 a set [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/1899-dearmond_ashbory_bass_strings)"]http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/18...y_bass_strings)[/url]. The bass is blue in colour and hardly used. You know the score with these - superb DB tone emulation and a lot of fun, as long as you don't have fingers like sausages! Bo is after £150 plus post (which shouldn't be much as its so small, probably about a fiver). Other Ashbory's on BC have gone for about this level but don't typically include well over £40 worth of extra strings. I can vouch for Bo 100%. Please drop me a PM if interested and I will pass on Bo's contact details. Here's a pic of the bass: [attachment=87700:ASHBORY.JPG]
  5. I have a BCer coming to view my Wal on Friday but alas I guess this will be sold by then
  6. [quote name='silddx' post='1348467' date='Aug 22 2011, 09:52 PM']You haven't seen me on the Theory & Technique section have you [/quote] Whats Theory & Technique?
  7. But Nige, when have you EVER talked about bass on BassChat? [size=1]PS, I am sure you are right about having a useable bass and the rest being down to the player, by the way[/size]
  8. This is a genuinely fabulous fretless and if I had managed to sell my fretless Wal this would already have been mine (again!) The buyer will be one lucky dude (or dude-ette). Get in quick!
  9. Drat - didn't sell on eBay despite there being 60 watchers (a record for an item I have tried to sell) Still FS at £2500 - please no offers below this "for a quick cash sale" (I have had a few offers of this type from BC and eBay) as this is my minimum and I am not desperate to sell such a fine instrument at any price. I would though entertain p/x deals against a Takamine TB10, a US Fender fretless P or trade against an Alleva Coppolo 4-string. Cheers I will not be bumping this thread any more so - if anyone interested discovers this in a few weeks/months time and the bass is not marked as SOLD - please PM me.
  10. Very Jaco-esque rhythm line and nice lead playing Bilbo. Very impressed - and the Wal detractors would surely find it hard to argue with the tone
  11. Bump for 8-9pm appearance at main stage of Arundel Festival on the South Coast tomorrow night
  12. Many congrats Dave - great to hear you are fully 'back on your feet' and ready to hit the venues again
  13. [quote name='daflewis' post='1342818' date='Aug 17 2011, 10:12 AM']Hi again, Got a reply from Tony this morning - "The reason the D string is that colour is there is bronze wire showing through the outer layer, we try and get the G+D strings to look similar to gut" Cheers, Daf [/quote] Being dumb here but I thought SS's were entirely synthetic, hence they cannot be used with mag pickups. This imples there is metal core?
  14. .. and if you like what you hear from Bilbo's clips, I happen to have the same model (a 1983 Mk 1 fretless) for sale [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=147460&st=0#entry1314644"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...=0#entry1314644[/url]. Shameless plug of the day
  15. A few more pics: [attachment=87235:P1040405.JPG][attachment=87233:P1040397.JPG][attachment=87236:P1040407.JPG] Edit: now on eBay but happy to pull listing for a BC'er [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130564006925&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...984.m1558.l2649[/url]
  16. Courtesy of the collapsing financial markets my income this year looks set to follow in the same direction. Hence I am putting this up FS again. I have cut the price further and would accept £2500, not including delivery, but to include the brown Wal case. Would lop £200 off if the case were not included (as I have a buyer for the case). Prefer cash but I have listed possible part-exchange trades in my earlier post, to which list I would add a new series (ie, with VTC) Rick 4003. The priority here is to raise cash
  17. Just sold Stephen a Barefaced Midget T cab. He was a total gent to deal with and I'm very happy to post his first feedback on BC.
  18. I read an interview with the Ric boss (John Hall IIRC) a few years back in which he specifically cited TI flats as having been 'almost made' for Rics given their tension and tonal characteristics
  19. I've not had any interest in this lovely bass, which has genuinely surprised me. Furthermore the 'London bus effect' seems to have happened with another nice (and cheaper) fretless Wal FS on BassChat and one on eBay. Hence it looks like a bad time to be selling a fretless Wal and so I am therefore withdrawing my bass from sale. Meanwhile if anyone searches for a fretless Wal and finds this thread at some point in the future please PM me I remain interested in a p/x (with a slug of cash my way) against a fretless sunburst US Precision or a Takamine TB10
  20. Sorry to the two posters above but this is now SOLD to gapiro, aka Stephen
  21. I will live to pester you another day about your AC, Loz!
  22. Just gorgeous! The 5 string brother of lozbass' lovely sonic blue LG4
  23. [quote name='lozbass' post='1331821' date='Aug 8 2011, 10:59 AM']Bump (and smile) - lovely, classic and super-desirable bass[/quote] Thanks Loz! So my cunning plan to relieve you of your sonic blue AC fell on stony ground
  24. Additional px or trade option: Alleva Coppolo Jazz 4-string only in 'classic' colour (sunburst, sonic blue etc)
