Jeeez they'e fugly looking lumps. But i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I removed mine with Optrex

I guess you have the head. My combo has air grills on the front

Functions and pubs will never pay enough to make a living, and if some bands manage that, then fair play. For me, gigging is all about the enjoyment. I dont do it for the ( small ) amount of money involved. Therefore hassle is not what i want or need. I avoid GK pubs at all costs. If a venue doesnt pay cash, i'll move onto one that does. Less gigs ? Probably , but it doesnt bother me in the slightest

By the way, he last visited Basschat on Tuesday. Probably looking for any threads with his shop name in the title

..

Hows about a £1500 commission sale bass going missing, to this date, never to resurface 3 ish years on ? It was documented on here, but the thread has been hidden. That has to take the biscuit. If anyone who posted earlier about " i would do this and that etc " we're on the same page. I was actually preparing to go there to lump him in the face and drag the lying pr*ck round his shop. Lies lies and more lies is all i got. I've been looking online ever since to see if the bass popped up anywhere for sale but it never has. In the end, i relented after thinking about it. Cracking him a good one would only have got me arrested. I threatened legal action which ended up with me accepting 200 quid less , and cokky git moaning he wont make any money on the bass that had disappeared

This is quite a different thread to the other BD one, where praises were sung. I wouldn't buy an E string off them after the shambles and the tissue of lies i was fed about my missing bass, which never ressurfaced to my knowledge. Never again. Ever.

Interesting price. I think i sold mine to the BC member who originally sold it to me, for what i paid which was less than £1000, a year ago, or thereabouts

There was also a Matrix with soapbars, albeit still single coils

Thats exactly how my pal played his Stingray A right handed bass, played left handed, and leaving the strings upside down. And he's a great player too. It looks totally bizarre when he picks up any bass

I prefer the look of the Lak, apart from that it's a 5 banger

Robin Trower. He wasnt even the singer

Better in what way ?? That question is too vague

There was no way i could sell this to a poor unsuspecting bass player, so the skip got it free of charge

Bassassin said some were actually playable. The woods were nice, not a lot wrong with the pickup and pots. Its just those who's necks went warp factor 9 got them a reputation. I was just unlucky.

I chucked my first in a skip. It was a nasty Satellite neck through P bass. The nastiness was the banana neck that many of these Satellite neck through P's had. Not all, obviously but enough to get a reputation. I sadly had one of the bananas. @Bassassin made a post about these being FCN's budget planks, and being made in Korea at a time when quality was missing

Thanks K I had 2 pics from my Sarzo sat in the C4 folder by mistake and simply fired them all on here thinking they were all C4 photos. I should have seen the tuners were different

I owned a P bass once and threw it in a skip

Yes but where was Derek Smalls switching options ?? Eh ? I rest my case sah

I had a C4 a few years ago, and wondered why the hell i sold it. Lovely bass. Love Peavey 4 string necks, probably why i've also owned 2 Rudy Sarzo Peaveys C4 pics, and also the serial number of mine, though i didnt bother checking the date
