  1. Ah but in 2019 its "a fantastic 72 P bass and not a boat anchor as some of these were!"
  2. I bought a Nate Mendel P bass as the shape and size of the neck is ideal for me. Not really a Foo`s fan but the bass has stayed whilst many others have come and gone. Everyone needs a P bass in their life
  3. This short scale beauty is still for sale and looking for a new, loving owner!
  4. If I`m looking to get a new bass, I usually spend weeks mulling it over and end up getting it. But earlier today I had a wee peeky boo at Bass Direct and they had a 90`s BB1100s for £385 delivered. Set up and cleaned with fresh strings and a gig bag. Within seconds of checking the advert it was bought and is on it way! So much for not buying anymore basses!
  5. Sometimes the time away doesn`t justify the pay. Earlier this year, we were asked to do a small festival in Fraserburgh as someone had let them down with little notice. We had played there last year and got £500 and free lodgings as it`s a 4 hour drive away. This time due to a budget problem (no cash!) they wanted us to do it for £250! I was the only one to knock it back and luckily we don`t have deps so we didn`t do the gig but the rest were all for it which made no sense as the week before we knocked back a gig in Stranraer, 2 hours away for £300! Sometimes it just doesnt make sense either time wise or money wise to do a gig. So I`m with you all the way Al.
  6. Thats a bit of a strange one. It`s defo an Epiphone, Gibson don`t do bolt on versions as far as I know. Nowt wrong with the Epi, it`s a decent bass.
  7. Sorry mate, for me it`s just not worth the worry of a courier damaging the bass.
  8. So many cracking basses at good prices on here just waiting to move to a new home. Must be a sign of the times.
  9. What about one of those Aria Cardinals, I think thats what they were called? Quite rare but the last one I seen was £350.
  10. The Sire P7` is a really nice bass. The pre amp is one of it`s main selling points but if you run it in passive mode, it`s still a great sounding bass. And the rolled neck is super comfy. But the Sandberg is well sexy!
  11. Where in the world are you? I have both long and short scale basses that you could try out and see what one suits you if you are in the West of Scotland. And the fact that they are both for sale has nothing to do with it
  12. Just completed a sale with Craig. Top man to deal with. Ta!
  13. ******NOW SOLD****** As new, brand new D`addarrio medium scale strings, will come with a full size gig bag. I have fitted a small black wooden thumb rest but standard apart from that. Pics to follow. Specs: Fender Mustang Bass has been part of some of music’s most iconic moments Glorious 3-Colour Sunburst finish Re-voiced single split coil pickup for ultimate 60s era tone Vintage style Hipshot "Lolipop" tuners for ultimate accuracy and stability Lightweight Alder body provides lush low timbre Hard Maple neck and Pau Ferro fingerboard, great playability and amazing sustain Deluxe Fender Gig bag for portability and protection String through body No trades please and collection from Paisley just outside Glasgow or don`t mind a drive to meet up within reason.
  14. The bass has been withdrawn from sale. It`s far to good for the crazy price I was offering it at
  15. This must be the cheapest Sandberg on here! If it doesnt sell at this price.... £660
  16. But he doesnt. It`s a Status Tele he plays now. Andy Bown has been in the band since 77 ish and Rhino since 85. Good enough for me. Still miss Rick though.
  17. NOW SOLD I bought this earlier this year from GG and during it`s second gig it developed a fault. I sent it down to Ashdown who gave it a check over and repaired the fault. Honestly their customer service is second to none. The amp is from 2009 and is in almost mint condition. It has all the heft you will need for any gig, 500 watts into 4 ohms. This model came in 2 sizes. The smaller head didn`t have the side vents like this one: this is the same amplifier but was put in the chassis of the EvO 2 combo amplifier when they had run out of the normal sized chassis. It is a beast of an amp. Collection from Paisley only or I don`t mind a wee drive to meet up and I`m not looking for trades.
  18. The ones from Northwest guitar fit spot on. I have one on mine and they are only about £15 delivered.
  19. The East pre amp is off to a new home and is no longer available but the bass is still here... Go on, you know you want to. Everyone needs a bit of black and maple in their life.
