  1. [quote name='mckendrick' timestamp='1353171958' post='1872409'] I thought that said Bum him. [/quote] Not sure if that would have a positive/negative effect on Dingwall sales!
  2. The odd thing is that the E string is 34-34.5" with the G string 32" so it isn't as dramatic as the 37" 5 stringers. However, it does make the bass eminently playable.
  3. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1353169226' post='1872365'] Burn him, for he is a witch! [/quote] No No No it has none of that electrickery in it!
  4. Always fancied trying one of these whacky things and got this in a trade with my Sadowsky Jazz via BCer Dougal (top chap)! [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2337.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2338.jpg[/IMG] It's actually quite easy to get used to the fretting (so long as you don't actually look at the fingerboard/frets ;D) and it sounds glorious! Not sure how much difference the variable string length has on the tone (it might sound just as good if it were all 34"!) but my preconception that it might be lacking in comparison to my active basses is totally unfounded (completely passive bass). So the weight, balance, playability and tone are excelent; any downside? Well I (wrongly) assumed that it would be V/V/T or V/Blend/T but in fact the centre pot is pup selector dial Neck/Both/Bridge, not sure if I wouldn't prefer V/B/T but then I suppose it sounds mint 'as-is' so why worry!
  5. Might be interested if it'll fit on a Dingwall, need to do a bit of research!
  6. Shame you are so far South as the singer in my band is looking for a desk and your inclusive price might have been tempting (selling on what isn't required)!
  7. I use a small Tech 21 'guitar' combo and at home volumes it makes an excellent bass noise as the EQ is more than adequate at low volumes and the speaker isn't under any strain at all! It has the added benefit that I can noodle on a guitar and use the other facilities that the guitar combo has.
  8. [quote name='E Street' timestamp='1352929594' post='1869584'] Hi All, Possible trade for either Yam TRB 4string or Warwick Thumb NT 4 string + cash on either option! You know you want this bass!!! [/quote] Just to clarify; are you wanting a potential buyer to give you a Thumb NT AND cash or are you prepared to put cash with your bass to give for a Thumb?
  9. The model is the 'S&P 12 Cedar' (that's is all that is on the label visible through the soundhole, along with the Canadian manufacture address). 50mm @ the nut and I can't find that case, though I do have a gigbag/cover for it.
  10. It'll likely be an early/first series (didn't know there were more than one). The model is likely printed on the label and I'll check when I get home (it's cedar topped, I know that for sure) along with the nut width. I used to have a generic hard case BUT not sure if I still have it so it is sold as is. ... Oh and yes it is still for sale!
  11. Somebody was looking for one of these on BC not so long ago... might pay you to do a search. Being a newbie it might help if you give a location. Does it come with the original case and owners documentation/certificate?
  12. A wedding gig for me... never have and never will like them but I always put my all into any gig so I/we played pretty well considering I have just joined the band and I've only had about 4 rehearsals. We each walked away with £150 from the gig but that doesn't win me over to liking 'Wedding Gigs'!
  13. You can likely get away with leaving the link 'so long as' you stick a firm sale price on your thread. You'll also need to be aware that it'd be bad form to field offers till after your ebay listing ends!
  14. The early JV Squiers get advertised for £1000+... not saying that many sell at that price and you'd have to factor in any damage or missing/non-original parts. I do think that the fingerboard/dots look unnaturally coloured for a JV BUT that could just be the camera angle etc.
  15. Tuning wheels look a nadge tight for getting fingers into!
  16. £825 before I advertise my other Sterling and keep this one.
  17. [quote name='Ghost_Bass' timestamp='1352136019' post='1859207'] I'll wait patiently until someone decides to part with his amp. [/quote] They'll be throwing snowballs at Satan before I part with mine! I'll add my support (and increase your GAS) to those above; TF 550 is probably as much as anyone needs so don't worry if you can't find one of the big brothers.
  18. You'll need to put a price on it mate even if you are just fishing for interest!
  19. A lot of bass for not a lot of money; I'd like to think that this will get snapped up sharpish!
  20. I'll take one; anyone want to make me an offer for the other six?
  21. I'll see what the craic is!
  22. Just one opinion but I'd say that your pricing is pretty optimistic tbh! There are better basses for similar less money; not that there is a lot wrong with your bass as a starter bass but your bass being Korean doesn't have the kudos as the MIJ (or even later Chinese) basses.
