    Off to the bay for a little more, still available for current price to fellow bass chatters. Steve.

    From memory it’s 16mm, but can measure when I get back home on Tuesday.

    SOLD For sale my 1985 5 string RSB Deluxe in black Works perfectly, but not in the best condition finish wise. Quite a few scratches in the finish and the odd ding, I have tried to photograph the worst of these marks, but as new she is not. Bought on a whim as I intended to have her cleaned up and possibly refinished but was cost prohibitive and I just don’t have the time, could do with a setup. There is some tarnishing to the gold tuners (as photographed) but the bridge remains in stunning condition. Not looking for a king’s ransom due to condition and happy to courier at cost to you within the UK. Cheers, Steve.

    Now advertised elsewhere for more, preference to Bass-chatters.

    I am a member of the Aria FB group. I did consider it, but too many ‘experts” on there happy to screw up any sale adverts with their own personal views on what Arias should go for.

    I am selling potentially my Rickenbacker 4003, Aria SB1000, Musicman Stealth Bongo and my old Aria RSB deluxe 5 so quite the cull.

    Thanks for the advice guys, looks like Bass Bros will be getting a call.

    Have owned several synths in the past, but not for a while. Thinking of picking up a decent all rounder, particular fan of the Juno series from the eighties having owned a 60 and 106 and the newish Juno X looks amazing, the current retail new is £1,400 which is a little more than I ideally want to shell out but I have been offered a fairly mint Jupiter X for £1450, they retail for £2k anyone in the know have any advice, is the Jupiter that much better than the Juno X? Thanks, Steve.

    Hi All, As the market for selling basses seems a little slow in the current climate, I have been thinking about selling a few basses via a reputable music store. Does anyone have any advice/experience of selling via a store in terms of their costs and any potential issues to look out for or any recommendations of any particular store in the UK from previous experience. Cheers, Steve.

    Price dropped to £1150, please don’t make me use a shop/eBay. 😉

    For sale my 1982 Aria SB1000 fretless in natural finish with a stunning grain. Comes with non original hard case. Very sad to be seeing her go, but she is increasingly more of a collection piece, living in her case rather than a working instrument. She is in generally good condition but has the odd mark and a very small chip from below the final fret line on the G string which has no affect to the playability of the bass and everything works as it should. She really is a stunner. The fretless variant is rare, as are increasingly all Matsumoko Super Basses from this time period. This is the fourteenth SB bass I have owned since 1983 and to say I love them is an understatement, so big wrench in seeing the last one go but needs must. With a double octave 34" scale 5-ply maple / walnut neck, all-brass hardware and a Canadian Ash body she really packs a punch. I can take further photos if required, just give me a shout. Apologies, but UK sale only, happy to courier at cost to your good self. Cheers, Steve.

    Hi All, For sale (no trades) my stunning ruby red Rickenbacker 4003 (including original hard case). She is in immaculate condition and plays like a dream, but having splurged out recently on a fretless Ray and a Wedding need to pay some bills 😉 UK sale only. 12th Nov, please note now for sale elsewhere. (Really long waiting list if you want a new one!) Cheers, Steve.

    Musicman have replied and apparently Andertons or Peach Guitars can order me the replacement nut. Wish me luck!

    Hi, My second hand Stealth HH 4 string Bongo has a small chip from the slot holding the G string. Sadly I believe it came like this, being an idiot I didn’t notice for several weeks as the bass has been unplayed as the day after it arrived I was flying off on the honeymoon. I have taken her out today for a play and noticed the chip. I am hoping that Musicman will supply me with a replacement nut, but I”d rather not attempt to remove the old one and pop in the new one when it arrives, can anyone recommend a luthier in Cambridgeshire that might be able to carry this out for me? Sorry not confident in doing this myself. Cheers, Steve.

    Just completed a super smooth transaction with Mick for his Musicman Stingray fretless. Mick was a gentleman throughout, super friendly comms and despite my bank being over cautious we got there in the end. Cheers Mick. Steve.

    Thanks for the heads up, have recently secured a 2eq fretless Ray from a fellow bass chat member. Although tempted to make it two! Steve.
  23. bassatnight
    Stunning!
  24. bassatnight
    Thanks guys, the bass itself plays beautifully and now cleaned looks super. A complaint has gone in, I am not expecting anything but an apology and perhaps a lesson learned will suffice.

    Hi All, I recently purchased a preowned Musicman Bongo from a well know music shop (PMT) for a significant amount of money. The bass turned up a couple of days later and looked very nice, until I had a closer inspection, the bass was filthy! The neck was grimy, sticky and covered in fingerprints, the pups were covered in a fine layer of dust and clearly no attempt to even give it a wipe had been made. I have been buying basses and guitars for some forty years and never received an instrument in this state. I appreciated it was preowned, but surely a shop would at least give it a clean before shipping? After a basic clean she is now looking lovely, no marks or scratches - but is it really acceptable for a major music store with many outlets around the country to send out an instrument so clearly dirty? Anyone else had a similar experience? Cheers, Steve.
