Hellzero

South, in Etalle near Virton and Arlon. Close to Luxembourg too. Cheers.

Seems that nobody is going to die these days.

I had the same feeling about single cut basses... And then I finally had a lot !

What's a on crappy video ? ;-)

Pictures corrected, the first one is the bass in the right case !

What about what's in my signature ?

It's called Murphy's law over here. I completely forgot Statii.com... : thanks for the reminder. And I found the good Hiscox case marked "Status" along with some documents and the screws for standard strings, all inside the original cardboard box in the attic. The case pictured on most photographs is the one for my white JayDee Supernatural. Now, the first picture is with the right case as are the two last ones.

Thanks, I've dropped him a line.

Or a crazy cat ? :-))

A lot !

And the usual questions : Scale, weight, string spacing at bridge and nut, and also action at 12th fret ? Thanks a lot.

My bass won't dive anymore. ;-)

[quote name='binky_bass' timestamp='1490296891' post='3264127'] Can people please stop putting awesome 6 strings up for sale!!! At the moment I'd need somewhere in the realm of £50,000 to state my GAS. [/quote] Hi Russ, Wait a bit, and you'll add some quids as I'm going to make some spring cleaning. ;-)

Indeed. :-o

Yes, got it by the postman. :-)

Finally sold to ... me. :-)

Russ, you are right about that chubby cat, but with a 34 inches tail, I guess.
