I’ve got a Z3 incoming from Thomann. It’s a B Stock Rose Gold one. Please no one on here say it was their’s that was sent back cos it weighed ten pounds!! I did ask Thomann for the weight but they couldn’t oblige. I’ll let you know what I think, assuming it doesn’t go straight back due to being too heavy!

I never sent my Z7 back but it was the one with the ash body. Great sounding and looking but weighed 11.2 lbs so I sold it on to a guy who didn`t care about the weight.

But I read @neepheid post if I remember right who has an alder body one that weighed around 9 ish so when Andertons were blowing the Z7 alder bodied ones for £365 I nabbed one and it is a good bit lighter. And they are excellent basses, I actually prefer them to the 3 band Stingray`s I have owned in the past.

Worst purchase this years was a Markbass 4 x 10 one of the new ones that weigh sod all. Band didn`t like the look of the yellow speakers and I wasn`t keen on the sound having mostly used Ashdown and Fender amps. So between selling that and the Laney head that was bought to power it, I lost a few quid but hey ho.

Best buy is the Fender Rumble 800 that I got from Andertons on a black Friday deal for £150 off the price to replace the above. Not like me to grab a bargain!

I sold a US Special P bass on here a few years back for around £650 and I could have sold it 3 times over. They are decent basses and a MIM Mustang generally goes for around £550 so I reckon you got a good deal. And as above it looks genuine.

Andertons have a deal on the Fender 800 just now for £650 which is cheaper than the 500 model and as Lozz says weighs 13 kg. So I had to buy one as I stupidly sold my 500 Rumble to get a Markbass cab which I didn`t like.

Just heard Kenny's Music has closed all Scottish stores 🤔

I have spent a few quid in there over the years and even before that when it was Sound Control. It`s a sad day when they have moved loads of gear but still can`t make it pay and makes me worried for the likes of Merchant City Music in Glasgow. 

Bought a pedal from Scott, super fast delivery and the pedal is great. Thanks!

I`m off to see the Stranglers tonight and I think the tickets were £57 all in which ain`t bad in this age. Only downside is it in Edinburgh and I can`t stand the place 

I think you are correct in that your band is too loud. I gigged a Rumble 500 in quite large pubs with a loud drummer and 2 Marshall valve numpties and it was always loud enough.

Apparently the cheapest tickets are $300. But they seem to be selling.

Just bought a pedal from Lozz, as new and fast delivery, highly recommended! Thanks mate.

Having owned multiple tone shaping di`s over the years, I actually prefer the Behringer to the Sansamp. Cheap as chips and sounds good for what I want it to do.

Looks brand new Jerry....did you gig it?

Once at MacSorleys with the now gone Markbass 4 x 10. 

I had this up a couple of weeks back and withdrew it but I`m not going to use it as I sold the cab I was using with it so back up it goes.

Sire Marcus Miller Z7 4 String Bass in Natural for sale only. Had this up a few weeks ago but it`s not going to get used so just seeing if there is any interest at the new price. As I have no box it`s collection from Paisley or meet up.

Here is a Sire Marcus Miller Musicman Stingray style bass for sale only. In exc condition it features a Sire Heritage 3 eq with a mid frequency control as well as bass, treble and mid control, it also has a passive option, tone control, 18 volt pre and blend control. MM style humbucking and J style pickups, through body stringing bridge, roasted maple neck with rolled fingerboard edges, ash body so it weighs 5 kg or 11 lbs. A very versatile bass especially for the price, it cost me £565 a few months back. Collection from Paisley only where you can try it out or meet up within reason.

Fell out with many usually lead guitarist`s who think they run the show. Guess what, they don`t!!

Yamaha BB1100s for sale only. I bought this last year, it`s a made in Taiwan model and in good nick these are going for £400 plus but this has a few issues. 

The body has some dings as in the photo`s and a weird scuff just in front of the bridge. The 3 way pickup selector switch is worn, it works fine in Jazz or P but wont stay in the middle position to select both pickups. The active/passive circuit works fine.

The G tuning peg has an issue, @AndyTravis I think it was? spoke about it in the BB topic in the Bass Guitars section. When you tune the G up the peg actually moves up as you can see in the photo. Can`t remember the fix but I think you need a small rare as rocking horse poo spanner to sort? Or another tuner.

Weight is 4.1 kg or 9 lb`s. I will replace the strap pins back to the originals. It has a replacement Gotoh bridge. Collection from Paisley preferred but I have a Andertons double box in the work that I can put it in but you can sort out postage. If thinking of buying please be aware of the above issues.

At the price point it can be a bit hit and miss but had a Sonic and it was a decent bass.
