I think i have the answer.
Trying holding your index finger between your thumb and middle finger and use that as a pick haha 😄
I'm just being daft btw
Not as stupid as that sounds as it’s something I used to do, kinda. Always finger player and could never use a pic but mimicking the holding of the plec id use my index finger/nail as the plec. Worked a treat but obviously not every song just now and again if needed. All the time would result in a bloody stump 😂

Came to me on a pedalboard but I don’t need it so up for grabs. They are great bits of kit however I’m already covered. Small tabs of Velcro on bottom, easy to peel off.
Price includes U.K. shipping.

That bridge is hideous, I hope you're going to do the right thing

On a separate matter to the one I mentioned above, I paid for a case 3 weeks ago that I was told would arrive in 2 weeks, and when I emailed a few days ago (as I'd obviously heard nothing from them) I was told it will be another 4 weeks. The LEAST they could have done is told me. Refund now requested.
Best not turn this into another thread about issues with BD - the last one got locked for absolutely no reason at all, I'd guess certain people have certain interests that such threads can be awkward for. 🤔
Yeah I’ve had same with DV24/7 with 2 cases and strings too. That was 1st Feb too and next day delivery

No real point emailing them to make sure either... I did this a few weeks back, was told they 100% absolutely had it, so I paid, then I got an email in the morning saying they didn't have it. 😖
Yup I’ve had emails saying it’s due any day over the last 4 weeks. Last week apparently the order is now packed….in th USA

Great bass this, it did have Custom Shop ‘62 in when I built it. It was built at such a high spec, my spec, as I was going to keep it but I like seeing them played and unfortunately didn’t see enough action from me and @Ander87really wanted it.
GLWTS and whoever buys will get a magnificent bass 🤘

Selling my Barefaced Big Twin 2 that I bought from Matt on here - link to his ad below.
It’s absolutely immaculate and only been used at home by myself.
Using my Ampeg gear mainly atm so it’s sitting being unused. Comes with cover and I can ship with my man with a van anywhere in U.K. for about £60.
No trades.

Either which way - to resolve will be costly, invasive and will reduce resale…
Even if you didn’t buy it to sell, points 1 and 2 are still deciding factors for me.
From your experience with said instrument @walshy, could it be resolved?
Well, I reckon so but he wasn’t keen on letting me take it to bits as he’s already took photos. I’d have liked to check the truss rod to make sure. As I say it wasn’t loads but couldn’t check it either way. Shame as I’d travelled 2 1/2 hours from home to have a look. Pots all crackled too but again could need a quick spray could need replaced. I took an amp and tools with me but only got to quickly plug it in.

Nice one walshy, I enquired about that bass when it was first listed which was quite a while back now, he didn’t tell me about the ski jump, glad I didn’t make the journey 👍
Yeah it definitely needs fettling and didn't get great vibes when I was there. Gotta trust your instincts. Was listed at a much lower figure too but he 'found out it was worth more' and hiked the price. Its in good condition, not great and needs work. I offered a decent price taking into account the work needed, actually more than I thought I would (£2600) but said he wouldn't take a penny less what £2800 and it can go back in the cupboard then 🙄

Yeah, slight ski jump on neck and frets are worn. Played ok but not magnificent. Open to offers, well not quite, he will knock £100 off for cash 😆
