  1. Hi folks G&L SB-1 from 1991. Has some nice wear to it - but all cleaned up and with incredible low action. Neck is dead straight and truss rod works well. Currently wearing Labella flats (760FX) but will also come with a set of D'addario Cobalt Flats which have been on for 10 minutes. Beautiful sounding P bass - the MFD pickup jus sings and the tone control can take you from vintage thump to snappy sizzle. When I bought it the shielding was poor so it's been fully reshielded and a new jack installed so it's now quiet as a mouse. Collection only from York or nearby (can deliver to a reasonable distance of halfway point). No case but can include a brand new Fusion Urban Gig Bag (black) for an extra £120. Any questions please let me know - there's a clip of it here (played with Cobalt Flats) Cheers ped https://soundcloud.com/chris-hiscocks/cams-jam
  2. Sounds like you should go with it I hear Italy is nice at this time of year
  3. Do what you like, sounds like you tend to anyway.
  4. Hey just to say you aren’t meant to add items to an existing advert. I know you have paid a yearly sub (cheers!) but it’s so people don’t buy a £7 ad and run it forever! Cheers
  5. Marcus forgot he built it apparently
  6. Sims Bass busted for spamming our forum. Poor form from one UK bass business to another.

      well you busted them... and then everyone seemed to carry on talking about big bottomed basses....

      I don't understand how they could have possibly imagined such an underhand and sneaky approach could have been acceptable.  hey ho.

  7. Oh dear. Not Marcus Bell (Employee at SIMS) - otherwise known as @OC-2 ?! 🤦‍♂️ I know Sims have chanced it before with promoting their wares on here without paying - I've turned a blind eye even after emailing and being ignored... but this is pretty low. Enough to put me off ever buying one, anyway. Guys - one last time - if you want to advertise, pay like everyone else...
  8. Tbh life is simpler with one bass you love - (I assume you’re selling all but one?) and I think once you have the urge to sell you just have to get on with it!
  9. Larry King? It looks a bit 'fat' to me, and a bit flashy... would feel a bit self conscious I think!
  10. A fair response to questions RE price which should really be kept to PM. Thanks
  11. Hi, the pics are in the wrong format so please reupload:)
  12. Is that Morten from Denmark? Nice bloke and great player.
  13. If he paid cash then take the negative and put a link to this thread in all subsequent listings to explain his twattery
  14. Done
  15. Being fixed as we speak - hang on in there
  16. Hi chaps, it's the search index that's gone down. Should be back soon, sorry. If it's not sorted by this eve I'll fire up the old search index which isn't quite as fast but fine for the interim! Cheers
  17. Try taking the string off and putting it on again making sure to push it down so it bends over the bridge nicely.
  18. Duff string I reckon
  19. Trade offers by PM only please 👍🏼
  20. I was just going to say that the very first shape you posted would balance really well on the knee and it looks cool too. With these little basses you tend to need a fulcrum at the bottom of the bass rather than a cutaway to place the bass on your leg, because you hold it quite differently. With the short scale and smaller body it’ll feel too far back and too low down. Assume the new shape fits you though and it looks great 😀
  21. Pair your headphone setup with a cheap class D head and an Eich Bassboard and you’ll never look at amplifiers again! (Ok maybe a bit)
  22. Why use an amp at home at all? I never can because I don’t like to think it might be annoying someone else and at lower volumes I don’t like hearing the acoustic sound of my bass over the top of the sound from the amp. Solution - get a decent headphone setup.
