  1. That's fabulous, and an absolute bargain IMHO for such a high-quality custom built bass! I have a Van der End JB5 that I bought on here 10 year ago, and, although its had a bit of a chequered past, it's still a great sounding and unique bass... I'm sure that whoever buys this won't be disappointed... GLWTS! 👍😊
  2. This is a fantastic sounding bass, really easy to play, well made and very lightweight too... So, it ticks a lot of boxes! I say that because @Lozz196 was kind enough to let me try it out for a week, as I've always fancied owning a short scale bass... But for some reason, I just couldn't quite get used to the shorter scale. So it's back home at Lozz Towers now.. But as said above, it really is a cracking bass and at the price, a complete bargain! Thanks again for the try out Lozz - very much appreciated, and I hope this little beauty finds a new home soon! 👍😊 Cheers Nik
  3. Had the pleasure recently of meeting up again with @E sharp, aka, Paul to puck up an old Trace cimbo that's going to live in the band's rehearsal room for the foreseeable. Second bass gear deal we've done now I think, and all good with this, just like the first one. Amongst other things, they're always very easy comms with Paul, who's a very knowledgeable and friendly Basschatter that I'm more than happy to recommend to everyone here on the forum! Thanks again, Paul, and here's to the next one... 😁
  4. Finally had the pleasure of meeting @leschirons, aka Keith, in person yesterday, as I went to collect the ever-so-retro 80s Roland Cube he was selling. So, what can i say about Keith that hasn't already been said? Well... Number one; you receive a wonderfully, warm welcome when you arrive at Chateau Leschirons, at which point... Number two: Keith serves you a Barista level cup of coffee!! ☕👍 Number three: Then there's talk of the joys of France, blues, basses, LaBella White Nylon strings, Basschat and sheep! Wow, those white strings, those white Sheep - amazing! 😁 And Number four: ever the gentleman, Keith walks you to your car holding the very item you've just paid for whilst reminiscing about the first time we dealt with each other on Basschat in 2009! It just doesn't get much better than this Folks, trust me! Keith; great to finally meet you and thanks for a great deal, a cool little amp, and a brilliant Basschat experience! Here's to the next one.. 🙏☺️ Nik Hopefully it'll be sooner than in 15 years time, otherwise I'll be popping round in a Dial A Ride minibus... 😂
  5. Really nice to hear such clean, precise and dynamic playing.... It's all in the hands/fingers, as a certain Mr Santana famously once said.
  6. What a great looking bass - seriously good value for the money! Brilliant and highly respected Basschatter, too! GLWTS @ead 👍😊
  7. What a fantastic sounding bass, and some wonderful playing in your video there @DaveSetchfield 👏👏👍 GLWTS 😊
  8. Just bought a great little Ibanez 6 string guitar from @binky_bass a.k.a. Russ... ... Who's a brilliant bloke to deal with, being super-chilled, very patient and accommodating and who quite rightly, is well-liked and we'll-respected around these parts! I think this is the second guitar I've bought from Russ - first deal we did was almost 14 years ago IIRC. And suffice to say, this deal was as pleasant an experience as the first one. So, you really can deal with Russ in complete confidence, Folks! Thanks Russ, and here's to the next one, though I hope its not such a long gap in-between as on this occasion. 👍😊 Cheers, Nik
  9. That's a beauty! Having owned a number of Ash bodied basses over the years, that looks very much like Ash to me... GLWTS 👍😊
  10. Yep... That's the one... Thanks! 👍
  11. It was a phenomenal bass; full USA spec, Moser circuit etc... 1984 I think. Bought from the old Bass Centre in Wapping. I spent a day there, tried out loads of basses, and came away with the Eagle. £450 at the time I think. When I stopped playing in 1996, I stupidly sold it to a guy who played bass for a Metal /Doom kind of band called Cathedral (or something like that..) He sold it to Oli in 2015, by which time it had a a bad neck break which was very well repaired at the time I think... Having said all of that, the Black Eagle I own now I've had since 2004 and have done so many gigs with it and still love it... So, all's well that ends well, etc, etc.. 😁
  12. I used to own this one back in the 90s... It's currently resides in Oli Foxen's studio in Bristol AFAIK.
  13. And that too is an awesome looking bass! Is he still around the, Neil (Moser) ?
  14. Thank you, Sir! 👍😊
