Yeah we've already had a thread on this one. The guy is a dreamer with that price - originally was 350ish and as high as 800ish. It's for parts only, can't see it possibly being repaired with the amount of wood missing

I think the seller has it spot on judging by this... https://www.talkbass.com/threads/aria-pro-ii-sb-1200-information.1237127/

Really? I've seen some Thors but nothing like this SB1200. In fact I haven't seen another Aria like this. The pups and bridge are definitely different to every other Aria I've seen

never seen one of these before. doesnt look like a vintage Matsu build but still looks really luverly: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aria-Pro-II-SB-1200-Brown-Electric-Bass-Guitar-Japan-Vintage/182967966825?epid=23008030357&hash=item2a99bd9c69:g:7ucAAOSwm3paNcKN

That was not my point...

God forbid the guy doesn't have time to check his emails everyday! Some people might be busy in the lead up to Xmas or summat...

Surely the only card that should ever be used is the ace of spades, the ace of spades, the ace of spades...

magical? there is nothing magical about the fact that different woods have different densities.

Ok so you know better than Warwick then...

and god only knows what wood it would be made of given the description that mentions a flame top veneer over an alder body when the photo im sure shows an ash of some description

how on earth do you reach this conclusion? Surely if this was the case all basses would be made from plywood or MDF or any other readily available and cheap material...

I recently bought a bass from Claude and was very pleased with the transaction. Claude is a real gent and the bass arrived safely and well packaged from Brussels to here in the UK. Deal with confidence

Not sure HP would be too happy to see this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DIY-Standard-6-String-Warwick-RockBass-Bass-Guitar-Body-Alder-Fender-Parts/173033742107?_trkparms=aid%3D555017%26algo%3DPL.CASSINI%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20170912102017%26meid%3De96ec3a976764860b5cf178ea82f0f96%26pid%3D100706%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26&_trksid=p2045573.c100706.m4781 Love the completely wrong description too : . The listing is for a 4-String Warwick RockBass Bass Body Alder Flame Top Veneer Clear Gloss Finish, the body in the pictures is the actual one you'll get. . Made of alder with flame top veneer, very light. . All wire pathes and mounting holes are pridrilled. . I'll also offer a free back cavity cover for the body. . Weight: 1.5kg (3.3 lbs)

i reckon it should come with a greed case in this instance

quite pricey too

wow, never seen strings like that before. very helpful for heavier gauges with the warwick bridges as I sometimes have trouble fitting the B string on mine. If I get stuck sorting my action on the fretless I will defo give these a shot, thanks for the recommendation

thanks guys. I have feeler gauges so if you want to advise a measurement for the action at the nut that would be great thanks. re. the La Bella's I may have to check these out as currently the saddles on my bridge are as low as they can go but action is higher than I would like so these strings may be the answer im looking for otherwise a shim under the neck may have to suffice. Could you be so kind as to show a photo of how they sit on your bridge.

Hi Everyone, Just purchased my first fretless and whilst I consider myself very capable of doing a full setup on a fretted bass(thank you john Caruthers) im not sure how best to setup a fretless in order to acheive the lowest possible action without buzzing. Ive read that a straigh neck ie no relief is best for fretless? Obviously intonation will be the same as a fretted and easy enough given my fretless is lined. However I would be keen to hear your thought re. action at the nut and any other tips. Would you guys only ever use flats on a fretless? cheers Chris
