  1. [quote name='BassTool' timestamp='1385495784' post='2289014'] I recently got to play this beauty at the NE Bass Bash and loved it Fantastic tonal range and a definitive MWAAAAAAH to be had from this lovely looking and sounding fretless. If you are in the market for your first fretless you could do a lot worse than this beauty, and if you want to improve on the one you already have - this could be what you have been looking for Plus of course it's on sale from the world famous Mr Hunt, purveyor of fine basses and all round decent chap, what more could you ask for? Have a bump on me Sir, for that is one lovely fretless [/quote] Your cheque is in the post! [size=4] [/size]
  2. All of the Roadworn are Mexican. In fact I work in Guidepost so pass through Bedlington daily!
  3. No disrespect to Kev's photography skills but... the bass is WAY nicer in the flesh! [size=4]It is a lovely transparent red whereby you can see the light flaming of the maple body. [/size] [size=4]If it weren't for the fact that I am downsizing I'd have this back off Kev (hence my original sale). In fact I still have several more basses that I need to move on and if this is still available it may well end up coming back to me. [/size]
  4. Another vote for the 'other' Musicman!
  5. [quote name='jim_bass' timestamp='1385223344' post='2285788'] What a bummer. Just went onto his site to see about getting a set of jazz pickups. [/quote] Buy my Roadworn Jazz and steal the Wizards out of that... then sell it on with your pups installed; as good as a free set of Wizards! [size=4] [/size]
  6. Shee it... losing finger tip! Real shame to hear of your band's demise. just means one more bass player sniping my dep work. [size=4] [/size]
  7. DOH! Slow at typing/responding. [size=4] [/size]
  8. If the head can do 2/4/8 ohm loads then you have no problem with the amp (the load will be between 2-4 ohms). The 2x12 won't have any affect on the 1x12 load as such but sensitivity dependent one might be working harder than the other, in which case use your ears!
  9. As it happens, I likely have a local buyer for this!
  10. First impressions Kev?
  11. Wal definitely did XLR + 1/4" as I 'think' did Overwater and my Washburn AB20 acoustic bass has a 1/4" and XLR. Sure there are others.
  12. [quote name='Flex' timestamp='1384610413' post='2278695'] Sold [/quote] Excellent... that leaves the field clear for mine! [size=4] [/size]
  13. NS 2004... flagship! [size=4] [/size]
  14. £40 and just a speaker connection to fix? If it really was that easy to fix (IMHO) it would be fixed and command a much higher price... if it is too good to be true!
  15. Both thru-neck (NT) but the SSII has an 'invisible' conceal. Body woods very different; (now) Maple on SSI, Afzelia on SSII. Pups; JJ on SSII PJ on SSI. There are other lesser differences but that is essentially it... Oh and they sound totally different!
  16. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1383992166' post='2271573'] My bad, I thought it was oil finish. Not arguing [/quote] We aren't! [size=4] [/size]
  17. I can't and won't refute what you've said about using furniture polish as I only have personal experience to act upon but to add £0.02 to the mix... The bass in question is sealed and lacquered (if it is a W finish and has a colour it must be) as such no polish can clog the wood grain etc. As to the fact that polish residue will attract dirt... blimey have you seen what the official W wax is like! It always leaves a residue which tends to get stickier with playing (friction/heat) and as such is an absolute dirt magnet. Which leaves the dilemma of polish leaving a residue that makes refinishing problematic. I personally know 3 or 4 people who 'professionally' (i.e. their living or main part of, is made from it) finish/refinish instruments and they all use white spirits to wipe down instruments between sanding and applications, so residues are wiped off as a matter of course and I'd have thought that the polishes and paints (never mind the wood dust) clogs the glass/sandpaper any way... added to which a thin film or residue left by polish would hardly clog the first sanding process which can be (depending on the thickness of lacquer/paint) quite coarse. Aside from that I wonder how many instruments that might get polished with 'Pledge' will actually end up being refinished... it must be a very small percentage. As I say, not wishing to 'argue' but it seems quite a strong reaction to using a product which to most people will never have any negative impact.
  18. Hmmmm it begs the question 'Would the clip have been posted if she didn't have a nice top on?' IMHO no, otherwise I can potentially find hundreds (if not tens of thousands) of youtube bassists playing along to songs!
  19. I have one that I don't play... but bite marks appear on my knuckles every time I consider selling it!
