Ah, does BC carry Reverb ads?

Oh yeah... ...oops!

It's a Chickenbacker, plain to see. Bidding went up to over £700 before it was pulled; plenty of folks reported it.

They're called lighters because they make your wallet lighter.

Gumtree is an ebay company, so all is good.

Haha: "Sounds great looks stunning and is already a collector's piece." "I recently had it evaluated and the guy said he was almost too scared to handle it as it is such a lovely example."

This year my plan is to spend more time looking at other folks kit - I always seem to get to the end of the day and wonder where the time went! I'm debating whether to bring 8 Rickenbackers (and the Rickenberger) or a selection of oddments. I should have Ampeg SVP & SansAmp RBI pre-amps in a case with a class-D power-amp, if anybody's interested in contrasting them (however, it would require figuring out how to use the controls on the Ampeg!). Also a note to self: don't forget to check the batteries in any actives!

...so, it does mooer for less?

I've never tried a Hondo Pro, but they do look quite nice.

🙂 Actually, the down octave on the higher notes with my Aguilar Octamizer sounds really good; I think it'll track down to a C. However, the break-up as notes decay would be a show-stopper for me.

That's got 5 more...

I can oftentimes tune a bass by ear, so if I played a G I'd get an F and it would do my head in. I suppose it'd work out if I was on one of my Steinbergers, as the strap position pushes the neck two frets away from me, though!

Cool. Personally I'd find everything artificially being out by 2 frets more confusing than either using a 5-er or an eXtender. But heck; that's me, not everybody else!

(I think I've got a couple more on things too...)

I've got 8 Rickenbackers, so a couple more for a full "Spot which Ric" test! 🙂

Hi! Here's something which you might find interesting if you read the headstock...

... but no, it's not by he who must not be mentioned! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225086014346

Gus - I'd like one of theirs (I've played @Happy Jack's which I think he acquired from @BigRedX).

The drawback of my Stomp is that I had to add 2 buttons to it (Up/Down) to make it usable, so basically it needs to grow a pair...

My Statii wish Rob well from the comfort of their sofa...
