I'm going to give this baby a pre-Chrimbo bump. Shoot me a sensible offer if interested, otherwise it'll just stay in the rack! If you're local, you're more than welcome to test drive it at mine.

I used this at a jam last night, really just to see whether it would fit in with what I'm doing musically...getting some nice overdriven sounds out of it through a Line6 (guitar) POD and a Boss ODB3 overdrive.

Thanks

Thanks for the offer...may be in touch!

Has anyone got a power amp - mono or stereo - I can have a loan of for a few hours? I just want to see whether I can integrate something into my existing setup.

I'm based in Crowthrone, Berkshire...close to Bracknell/Reading. I can collect or if you want to accompany the amp on it's date, I'll gladly throw in coffee and cakes!

One surefire way to [i]increase [/i]the value of a new bass is to break it up into its individual parts/components and sell these off individually, a la the Stratosphere seller on eBay.

£600 shipped. £20 a string.

I have no idea why this is still here. What's wrong with you people?? If I didn't already have four TBs and another NR coming in January, I'd have this like a shot. I'll trade you my Waterstone.

Have a bump.

First pic of the vintage sunburst is up on LBO.

Up!

Don't own one, but noodled on one for about half hour in the US this summer and really liked it. The component parts (jazz body, precision profile neck) was a decent combination, especially for my gorilla sized hands. I didn't like the colour (green) or the pearlescent scratchplate. The single volume control was fine, sounded decent enough through a variety of amps. I know they used to do a black/black/rosewood issue which is more me.

Body styling aside, it's effectively a Precision without a tone control...you could always wire in a single stack knob if that was going to be an issue.

Over on the LBO one of the guys just picked up his NR in pelham blue and has posted a couple of pictures. Very pretty bass.

Key Music are telling me delivery for mine is going to be mid-December to mid-January 2013. Apparently Thomann have already sold out their allotment.

Time to say goodbye to this. It's a minty series 1, #33, 34" scale. I'll throw in a new set of D'Addario's and a long Levy's 3" strap. It's fitted with Dunlop Straploks, but is otherwise 100% stock. It comes with a very flimsy Waterstone gig-bag.

Immense tone! Super rare.

Will sell for £650 shipped. No trades please.

He has actually does have a book out.

There's a white one on Ishibashi. Needs a bit of TLC (and a Gibson truss rod cover), but stupid cheap @ £550.

Did this go?
P

I'll put some pics up, yes. I have a Hipshot Supertone bridge on order, so I'll do before and afters...I really don't get on with the three-point bridges. Release date is supposed to be 25/10, but I've actually no idea when it'll arrive.
P

...around £800 at Key Music, plus free delivery. Ordered a vintage sunburst model this afternoon.
P

SOLD!

Buy yourself a secondhand Line6 Bass Pod (#1) and plug it into the effects return of your Ashdown. Search the Line6 archive for some custom settings.

Any freebies? Went on the Ben & Jerry factory tour got free ice-cream and frozen yoghurt. Just asking.
P

I had one of these as well. Great amps and very versatile!

Another bump!
P

sorry...don't actually understand the question...

There's some conjecture dependent on how you're using this as to whether the nut needs reslotting. I used it as a baritone for a while and as it came with a set of roundwound Fender Bass VI strings (92-25) I decided to give it a go with these a few weeks ago. The nut certainly hasn't needed any attention and as the bass strings as fairly low tension it's been unecessary to tweak the truss rod either.
