  2. [quote name='dr1' post='163977' date='Mar 26 2008, 06:50 PM']have free bump for unbelieveable bass at unbelieveable price ![/quote] Cheers DR ! I'll make it even more unbelievable, I'll throw in a Minty Guard and a decent Gig Bag !! Roll up !!!
  3. Hi Guys, I'm offering up for grabs a cracking Lakland Bob Glaub with a couple of hundred quids worth of Villux Mods..... Pickup, 4 position mid switch and tone boost, really adds another dimension to the Precision sound while retaining the classic passive P bass tone as well. Mods have been done profesionally and to a high standard The neck on this Bass is exceptional, feels every bit as good as the USA 4-94 I had, Really one of the nicest feeling and playing instruments i've had the pleasure of..... Condition wise it'as a good 9.5 / 10 It's currently set up with Flatwounds and really delivers that "old school P bass thump" action is low and playability 10 / 10 Only reason for selling so soon is that I've tried out an Aguilar DB750 today against the Aguilar AG500 I was going to buy (and was really happy with) Man that Big Aggie is Good !!! I now need the cash to bridge the price gap...... I hope Peter doesn't mind me using his Porn Thread to show the Bass, I'll take some photo's later [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15354&hl=bob+glaub"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...mp;hl=bob+glaub[/url] [b]Let's not mess around here..... I'd like a quick sale so i'm setting the price at £575 [b] [b][size=4]Price Dropped to £550 to secure a sale by the weekend[/size][/b] Cheers Mark
  4. [quote name='thedontcarebear' post='163782' date='Mar 26 2008, 02:31 PM']It just arrived, gonna try it in a bit, but with my luck it'll probably be dead or explode.[/quote] Let us know how you get on please, considering an F1 myself The package looks too good to be true !

  10. [quote name='Waldo' post='162588' date='Mar 24 2008, 12:21 PM']Fleabasses seem to be very hard to sell at the moment, took months to sell mine![/quote] I think everythings slow, but yeah, Ray's & Warwicks seem to be in low demand, Ric's & Fenders are having their day again !! The Flea's still here guys, happy to consider trades Mark
  11. [quote name='Beedster' post='162520' date='Mar 24 2008, 08:46 AM']Hope it goes well Mark mate, look after my Modulus Only joking, thanks for the PM, probably for the best as it's such a beaut I'd never want to take it out of the house. Cheers Chris[/quote] Thanks Guys...... Just got in from the gig ! What a Blast !!! Loads of RHCP fans in there...... well RHCP tribs are not that common on the pub circuit in the North East !! My Playing was just about OK I think I scraped through it..... maybe i'll put a couple of pics or vids up when they come in (if there's any interest) I didn't use my Flea Bass, I know i'm Crazy but I really didn't want to risk getting it knocked in a multi band situation ! Had to make do with my Stingray Cheers Mark
  12. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='162510' date='Mar 24 2008, 07:58 AM']Agreed! At this price you could probably afford to sell your Bolt-On Warwick on eBay and with the proceeds buy this Neck-Thru... AND you'd probably have some change! A No-Brainer really![/quote] Did you sell your Black Streamer ?
  13. This seems like a hell of a lot of Bass for the Money !
  14. Brand New RHCP Tribute (The Reet Hot Chili Peppers) playing their first gig today at the Ropery Sunderland - it's an all day mucic fest with the Reet Hot's on stage at 3pm Me Depping on Bass....... !!
  15. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='162500' date='Mar 24 2008, 07:06 AM']Come on then, what did you walk out of EM with? [/quote] Nothing at all...... can you believe it ? Am I cured ? (I doubt it) Am I skint ? (Isn't everyone) Didn't Electro Music have anything in the Bass Dept (Actually a lot more than usual) I did try the Mark Bass F1 through a MB cab and an SWR cab, one sounded average one sounded AWESOME !!! I'll let you make your own mind up which was which !!
  16. [quote name='Beedster' post='162349' date='Mar 23 2008, 08:12 PM']Whaaaaaaaaaaaat.............. I can't believe this hasn't sold. My Flea Bass sold for £1000 on Ebay two months ago, and it was nothing like as well spec'd as Mark's, AND mine had been repaired and refined.... Mark, anything less than £1250 for that is too cheap so keep it mate. You know you'll only buy another one one day anyway! Or... I'm thinking about offering you a '74 Precision AND the P/J fretless we almost traded recently (now fixed by Paul C) in exchange.... However, I'm sure someone will see sense and put me out of my mIsery C[/quote] It's Crazy isn't it ? Damn that Credit Crunch Your Precisions are nice for sure..... I may be trading the Flea into a local music store against an AMP. A cash sales would obviously give me more options in negotiating etc, so (Sensible) cash offers are invited and trades possible too High on my shopping list are Aguilar DB / GS 112 cabs Aguilar DB750 / AG500 MarkBass F1 Certainly other stuff considered all PM's will be considered replied to Cheers Mark
  17. I was in Electro Music in Doncaster where they have a good range of Sanbergs, Dave had just got a new one in and urged me to try it out, It was a black bass with matching headstock rosewood board with pearl blocks - sexy sexy !! Pups were Musicman / Precision OMG how BIG did that sound ! Really well put together too, only thing that put me off was the big plastic Nut !! looked really cheap and out of place on such an instrument
  18. My Modulus Flea is now on Ebay [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200208394158"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=200208394158[/url] Cheers Mark
  19. [quote name='MB1' post='156040' date='Mar 12 2008, 02:58 PM']MB1. Top Of The Shop!....... Mark. Nice but far from spalted! [/quote] Can't beat a bit of Spalt can you ? Ebay at the weekend if it's not gone by then...... PX Musicman anyone ?
  20. [quote name='Higgie' post='155183' date='Mar 11 2008, 11:20 AM']*Grumbles about lack of cash*[/quote] I can take plastic !!
  21. Guys, Not sure the RHCP gig is going ahead now so I may be up for moving quicker on selling the Flea.... May Also take PX on a Natural Ash / Maple Stingray Cheers Mark
  22. [quote name='CHRISDABASS' post='154455' date='Mar 10 2008, 12:26 PM']hi over the last ten years ive been on a seemingly never ending search for the right bass for me, i have had everything!! trust me!! now i finally feel settled with my jazz basses! so this beautiful stingray has been sat in its case not being used!! which is a shame! ive owned this lovely bass from new (july 2007) its a 2007 4 string model in trans red, maple board, 3 band, black plate, musicman hardcase out of all the stingrays i tried that day in sound control this one stood out a mile mainly because of its quality fit and finish and lovely light weight!! so........ what im after is either a cash sale of around £700 or trades of similar amount with cash either way depending on the bass in question! so if you have a fender jazz MIA, CIJ etc (or jazz style, sadowsky, lakland etc) and you fancy a gorgeous ray then get in touch cheers chris[/quote] Just 10 years ? you've got loads of time left yet on your quest........... I've been at it since 1984 and a Jedson Fretless...... !! Still not sure what I like best !!! LOL !! Good luck with the Ray sale..... it's nice one !!
  23. [quote name='molan' post='154173' date='Mar 9 2008, 08:39 PM']I have no ida what year it is - can I tell from the serial number? Wow, if I sold both of the Lanes for $800 each that wouldn't be far off what I paid for the entire bass (well, within a couple of hundred quid anyway!).[/quote] The first 2 numbers should tell you the year (see picture - mine's a 97) if yours was a custom then it might not have a number on it !
  24. it must sound massive !! I'd love to hear it - What Year is it ? I've hear of Lane Poor MM Pups going for $800 so i'm hardly surprised you're getting offers on the pup - LOL !!
