  1. Want!! Just a shame that my Old Smoothie hasn't gone yet or i'd be all over this in a shot
  2. Funnily enough, I know someone who had a 5 string in the finish and it had flaked off everywhere!
  3. Hey! I switched to the nickels a while back and much prefer them. find them a lot less aggressive and I would say the nickels have the warmer tone with my basses. My two main basses are Warwicks though so they are naturally quite aggressive sounding.
  4. If you wanna sell the other one then let me know.. haha. I have actually a MTD Nebulous custom order on the way which should be arriving any day now so can't wait to play it! GLWTS
  5. Sod the house.. 😂 Basses are infinitely more important
  6. Do people seriously go to a bass guitar show and get annoyed about the sound of other people playing bass guitars? 😂
  7. Sorry just seen you meant pickup covers. For some reason I read it as pick guard / scratch plate!
  8. Oh really? That would be very surprising as the other two color variations of this bass both have white pickup covers (butterscotch and choc burst)

I live in Exeter but work in Cardiff so willing to meet around these areas. Comes in the official Musicman hard case it arrived in. Thanks!
  10. Gary bought some pickups off of me. Great comms and understanding after I made a booboo with delivery which caused the delivery to arrive a day later than expected. Deal with complete confidence.
  11. Bought a EHX freeze pedal from Tony. Very quick delivery and very easy process. Deal with confidence! Thanks
  12. Ah yes that will be it! It's out of a Streamer Stage 1 CS that has a BN
  13. Weirdly though I just checked the MEC site and this is the dimensions listed for the MEC soapbars dimensions: 32 mm x 108 mm http://www.mec-pickups.de/?&c=35352344224&lang=en&smk=1&modul=shop&site=article_details&article_id=D0495272001472736695A26427&article_category=D0444805001389959557A15&collection_id=D0064424001343134120A2868 I have no idea why this would be so different. I measured them with a ruler. Anyone care to shed any light??
  14. I am selling a pair for MEC soapbar pickups taken out of my Warwick Streamer Stage 1 5 string bass due to an upgrade. In good condition and all working as they should.
  15. This is a MEC 3-WAY ( I think) preamp from a Warwick Streamer Stage 1. Fully working and was only taken out as I changed to an Aguilar OBP3 preamp. The three pots are bass, middle and treble. The stacked volume pot was kept in my bass. Thanks!
  16. Sold a wireless system to Ilian. Good comms, polite and easy to deal with. Would happily deal with him again.
  17. thats a stunner mate! Is that a ramp between the neck pup and fretboard? hard to tell from the angle... Sorry to take 18 months to reply but yet it is. I don't like a lot of depth behind the strings when double-thumping so had an ebony ramp made.
  18. Bought some pickups from Leon and was an extremely easy process. Very friendly, quick to respond and happy to answer any questions I had about the transaction.
