    I use the Cobalt Flats, they’re fab. 👍

    It did and it didn’t! The cab was absolutely fine, it was my choice of cables that it didn’t like. 👍 Amp was a different story. It was the main board - IIRC - essentially, it would have meant a new one, which was the value of the amp. I’d bought it used - it died on its first gig. I couldn’t return it……long story. I didn’t have East Street look at until I’d had it for about 8 weeks, so it would have seemed dodgy if I’d then I’d have contacted the seller to say it was dead. So I took the hit. 😫

    Genuine Fender USA Precision bass pickguard. Removed from my 2021 Pro 2. The colour is mint green…..appreciate the photos make it look white! It’s the shade that comes with the black basses, to give a better idea. Condition is excellent - just a slight mark around the truss rod notch where it’s been adjusted. Hard to see, impossible to pick up by a camera. Only asking £15 now - free UK delivery. Payment by PayPal ‘gift’ please. PM with any questions, thanks for looking! SB 😀

    I use one of the all the time - unbelievable weight, sounds amazing. GLWTS - this won’t hang around for long. 😎🎸

    I think there’s definitely a hefty prog element to them. Dont forget the ‘Gospel According To…’ was a concept album. 😀

    My luthier had a very successful go today, blade, file, and other tools…..he’s managed to carve a matching hole to the genuine one! 👍

    Thanks! Damn auto correction….🫣

    Had an aftermarket pickguard fitted to a US Pro Precison. Looks great, but just noticed I can’t access the truss rod! Don’t want to remove the neck all the time - has anyone got any fixes for this, or tips to gain easy access? 🤞 Bass is black, black PG. Thoughts? 👍

    Genuine Rickenbacker Bass Bridge. Removed from my 4003, my Luthier replaced mine with an after-market alternative. No issues on the condition - a bit of reflection of me in the photos! 🫣 Screws are included as well. Hard to find used, always in the hundreds - last one of here was around £150. I’m only asking £100, free delivery in the UK. Payment by PayPal ‘gift’ please PM with any interest - thanks for looking! SB 😀

    RIP Herbie. A true career bass player that broke into public consciousness with his work. A lot of us are probably here because of Herbie’s influence. 🥹

    Any more info or experiences on these? I’m hunting for a practice bass, and as a MB fanboy, I’m quite tempted by a yellow variant! and yes, I love the colour! 🤘

    Sad to hear that, but as long as you can finish on a good note - look back with affection, rather than doing it hating it. 🎸

    Bought a new MB cab in June, took just over a week. Hadn’t used them for a few years, service was as good as ever. The packaging was amazing! 🤘

    Up for grabs, sadly (as we all say) is my 2010 Musicman Stingray. It’s a 2-band, black/roaewood combo - the best IMHO. It’s in excellent condition - few indentations, nothing major at all. Pickguard has some wear, but I’ve left is as it’s what it came with. You may be aware of Stingrays with the weak D/G string issue - it’s real, and mine had it. I had the pickup replaced by my Luthier with a Nordstrand - and the problem was fixed. The strings are now equal volume. Original is not included - there really is no need for it. I do genuinely love this bass - some sentimental reasons - but I never use it. My band hate it, so it never gets played. I plan to get something passive instead, as my main bass is my Ricky. As a result, this needs to be used and played. I bought it from Will at Bass Bros. It had an old gig bag, which I dumped (always use my own hard case). I’ll supply a new gig bag with it if necessary. According to the original listing, it comes in at 9lbs11oz, or 4.4kg. Quite light in Stingray terms! 😉 I’m asking £1350 for this, included a courier (at buyers risk) within the UK. I’ve bought, sold, and sent many basses on here over the years, so please buy with confidence. Not really looking for a trade, although I would consider anything ‘R’ related, as that’s where I always end up! 😀 Paypal ‘gift’ or bank transfer, please. Please PM with any questions - thanks for looking! SB 😀

    Niiiiice! 👍👍

    Technically, one. Markbass amp,usually with a MB 2x10. Also have a MB 2x12 cab….but my 10s are 4ohm,so I obviously can’t use them together. 1.5 rigs, then, really…..unless I buy another amp. Which I don’t plan to! 😇
  23. spongebob
    You’ll be surprised at the 2x10 power. I’ve gigged mine exclusively since I bought it, never been left wanting. My 2x12 cab hasn’t left the house. I have the Pure (as I mentioned above). Played a big festival on Saturday, the stage guy couldn’t believe it was a working cab at that weight!

    Gorgeous, what fabulous looking Stingray. Amazing basses, and IMHO, great value at the mo on the used market. Maybe they’re out of favour a bit? Who knows…..I think they’re great. 👍
