  1. HI there the professor was actually made in the same building as the Stingrays,sterlings and bongos. they were not made elsewhere as in G&L TRibutes or Lakland Skylines, just thought I'd mention that if you want to change your listing DJ
  2. I had a Tune Bass Maniac around 15 years ago.It was a great sounding and playing instrument..I had to get rid of it tho cos it was bubblegum pink! DJ
  3. [quote name='jacko' post='52760' date='Aug 30 2007, 01:16 PM']Can't understand why anyone would pay a premium for an instrument that looks like someone has knocked the sh*t out of it. pristine and shiny for me I'm afraid.[/quote] +1 DJ
  4. [quote name='Shaggy' post='51745' date='Aug 28 2007, 02:04 PM']Are the maple boards on EB MM's lacquered or oiled? Lacquered board on my Sabre still pristine after nearly 30 years. IMHO you can't beat maple on any Fender-derived bass aesthetically, never noticed any tone difference except on fretless (when it has to be ebony).[/quote] gunstock oil and wax.
  5. just bought a Yamaha NE-1 parametic EQ off Si/McDaddy. dead easy fella to deal with,took the paypal hit and got my magic box to me quickly. highly recommended! DJ
  6. I keep checking out Nitrotone's stock on ebay.They have a few real nice looking tribute JB2s and SB2s. $60 shipping to the UK makes them all the more alluring btw your Tribute L2K looks great. DJ
  7. two great looking G&L's outrageous vfm DJ
  8. lush ASAT one of the (if not[b] the[/b]) best looking I've yet clapped eyes on. DJ
  9. Hi, if you can be swayed away from a Boss unit,my Zoom MRS802 (20GB HD and CD Writer) just went up on ebay this evening [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Zoom-MRS802-8-track-recorder-CD-writer_W0QQitemZ220139939263QQihZ012QQcategoryZ15199QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Zoom-MRS802-8-track-...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] cheers DJ
  10. Sibob,the gold one I got from geddy's nose back in March of this year for £550 and with the cash difference against my Bongo the hollowbody worked out the same.I dont ever see them for sale with retailers here,maybe someone else here knows who sells them in the UK. I do keep an eye on ebay and a company called Nitrotone Music in the states,who do the odd G&L blowout deal.Buffalo bros are another US retailer who move quite a few G&Ls.I got my Legacy 6 stringer from them. tonewise maybe another ASAT or L2K/L2500 owner can chime in and describe them better.to me they're G&L and just different from most out there. big and bold and most definetely versatile I'd say and Si,I've no plans to move on the gold one.I've grown very very fond of this bass since I got it from you.It earns its keep. cheers DJ
  11. [quote name='stingrayfan' post='43623' date='Aug 10 2007, 09:24 AM']Was it you with that ASAT perchance?[/quote] nope,he's no doubt waiting till he can proudly show it off DJ
  12. Sibob, The two sound further apart acoustically than they do plugged in, the MFD pickups and the electronics are the same on both Lots of different tones from them both,and its fairly easy with a couple of switch throws to jump from one usable tone to another. In a band setting they cut through much better than my musicman and sound bigger too. I prefer the sound of these basses and the L2000s to any other I've heard. They dont balance the greatest but if you play with the neck angled up a bit when standing then its fine. I just love the look,vibe,tone and aura of these basses.imo they are pretty special DJ
  13. 2001 ASAT semi hollow in cherryburst.I took this in part ex for my Bongo.both parties are happy not a mark on the ASAT. will be A/B ing it later against my regular solid bodied ASAT.in the interim here are the pics cheers DJ
  14. great bit of business.these are great basses with bags of character. and I know someone else on these boards who snagged a USA G&L this week for the same amount but I'll let him tell you himself congratulations in the meantime are in order for the L2500 DJ
  15. [quote name='bkman42' post='41716' date='Aug 5 2007, 10:14 PM']Some people love the teal colour some hate but i think its one of the stingrays best finishes :-)[/quote] also one of the longest running finishes on the basses.been a lot of colours come and gone but teal still sells I bought 3 in this colour good luck with the sale DJ
  16. thanks jwbassman, £195 including next day courier? cheers DJ
  17. £60 including p&p? tell your guitarist..they normally like a bit of wear and tear on their kit DJ
  18. Zoom MRS802 8 track with CD Burner.I bought this in December of last year for £279 and its seen very liitle use. comes with original box,manual,psu,software discs etc I cant see any completed listings on ebay at the moment to see how much they go for these days anyone know? cheers DJ
  19. HI up for sale is my Boss GT-6. this is the skinny stringer version. I've gigged this the last 2 years and as you can see its showing some marked signs of wear.(2 knobs missing,scuffing etc) everything works ok,no electronics issues.dont have the box or manual but have the original Boss PSU sold as seen £60 DJ edit: only selling as I've started using the Pod XT Live floorboard out now lol dunno how my G&L came to be here.bloomin photobucket nonsense
  20. yes I am could it sway you from a G&L? cheers DJ
  21. oh man that is the mutts nuts for me somebody buy my Bongo please so i can buy this good luck with the sale DJ
  22. hi from another fellow Scot,(KIllie, Ayrshire - home of the ned/chav ) stick around DJ
  23. [quote name='Beedster' post='38275' date='Jul 28 2007, 09:33 PM']By far the best looking Bongo I've seen. Reckon it would look even better without the pickguard. Great bass the Bongo as well, sold my 5er as I was moving back to 4 strings and that white is really making me think! I can't, but it's lovely Chris[/quote] thanks Chris, yup she looks great and much better in the flesh so to speak,but most of all I've had loads of great comments about its tone.my band leader said he could feel as well as hear the extra bottom end of this thing last night. I should also mention I'd swap for a Bongo with the single H as well if someone out there has one and fancies a bit of extra tonal options DJ
  24. Finally decided this has to go so if i cant move it here or on the EBMM boards in the next week it will be ebay'd I gigged it for the first time last night and I just cant get on with the neck p/up placement at all.next week I'm going back to my Sterling H anyway this bass is phenomenal sounding and is a pretty rare example in white.On the MM forum I read they had issues at the factory colour matching the neck and body and this sounds about right.the neck is stark white whilst the body is more of a cream colour.This bass also has "Custom made" engraved on the neck plate.The bass is from June 2004 the Bongo has no issues at all bar a tiny little bit of paint having come away from the tip of the headstock(about 1mm or so) It comes with the EBMM hard case. Looking for £675 will do a trade/part ex/swap for a nice StingRay,another Sterling,USA Jazz S1,G&L etc cheers DJ
  25. what a piece!! once again on these boards poverty comes between me and enlightenment DJ
