  1. Lee bought my headless bass, he’s a lovely Chap with excellent communication skills, an absolute pleasure to deal with & very highly recommended to all BC’ers👍👍 Thanks again Lee.
  2. Bought a Gig Bag from Neil & as usual he was a pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication, plus superb packaging & fast despatch he is a credit to Basschat. Thank you Neil👍👍
  3. Thanks👍👍 The Gig bag came with the Jack when I bought it & I’ve not come across them before? No idea how old it is, but it’s really good quality.
  4. According to the ‘in house’ Economist - my already small collection needs to be reduced by 50%😟. (I seem to remember the same thing happened about 30 years ago when I had four motorbikes)🙈🙈. In excellent virtually as new condition - I can’t see any marks anywhere (apart from the impression on the pick guard of where the Tug Bar was, which I will refit before selling) It plays like a dream with a low action all the way up the neck thanks to a straight neck, level frets plus a really good set up and it sounds like a P Bass should. I have owned several AVRI’s in the past and in my humble opinion this plays just as good as any of them, but at a fraction of the price. So these are possibly the least expensive way of getting that pre CBS look, sound & feel, apart from maybe a Bitsa / Triggers Broom jobbie. The Olly white finish ‘in the flesh’ is not as bright as the photographs depict and has a nice vintage darker hue to it. Shoulder friendly weight of 3.8kg, or 8.36lbs in old money. Incredibly accurate 60’s features such as solid Alder Body, wide but shallow from front to back 1.75” at the nut Maple neck, Slab Rosewood 7.25” radius fingerboard, ‘threaded’ vintage style bridge, reverse wind tuners - which are superb quality and Fender Vintage ‘60s Split Single-Coil Precision. Comes complete with an old Kinsman plush lined hard case which has seen better days + someone has stuck some stickers on it, which could be removed if they bothered you & all but two of the catches need attention, but it still does an excellent job of protecting against knocks when in transit. Currently sporting a set of Thomastik Infeld flat wounds. If you are too far away to collect, l can arrange postage to the U.K. Mainland only - sorry, via Parcelforce Express 24 and Insured by Secursus. Features & Specifications……..

  5. John very kindly made me a passive Loom for my Jack Bass and after asking what type of sound I preferred, supplied a superb alternative to replace the original active circuitry. It was so easy to fit, even for an old Duffer like me & sounds incredible - Outstanding! Thanks again John, very much appreciated.
  6. Bought a cracking P Bass from Dan - third time we’ve dealt on here, if memory serves? Spot on communication, excellent packaging and fast delivery - as ever. Thanks again Dan👍👍
  7. Bought a pick guard from Ben & he was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication & packaging + fast despatch, so very highly recommended to all fellow BC’ers without reservation. Thanks Ben👍👍
  8. Loved my old Corvette and actually preferred it to the Thumb I had before it❤️❤️ GLWTS👍👍
  9. Bought this little cracker from this very Parish but despite giving it a really good go, sadly it’s not for me - (just call me ‘sausage fingers’)!! Light as the proverbial feather, sounds huge and the previous owner has wisely fitted Aguilar Thunderblack strings, which are a big improvement on the ultra sticky original type jobbies. The built in EQ is excellent and the tuner is spot on👍 Great for multiple applications - home / work / holiday / car noodling due to its minuscule size & weight plus it could even be a mini back up bass. Would also make a great present for your budding Jaco! It’s in great overall condition apart from a few marks on the rear at the top of the neck - please see photos. Can post to the U.K. Mainland only - sorry, if you are too far away to collect as I still have the box it arrived in. The TGI Gig Bag is a good fit and has a handy shoulder strap + pocket. Give me a shout if you have any questions👍
  10. Thank you, very much appreciated👍👍
  11. Thank you, I’ll give it a go. Very much appreciated👍👍 Cheers, Tim
