    Yep I've got one, great pedal but Vista not supported. Then again Line 6 refuse to provise Vista drivers for the Bass Pod XT live too Peter

    Well I do like MM and I would say that one is sumptuous! Peter

    Another new member posting to sell doesn't annoy me half so much as existing members posting comments that kill the sale stone dead when there's a perfectly good pm system. No surprise in the modern BC though. Peter

    +1 on Finn's comment. I believe that everyone should have a pre 92 Thumb NT in their bass wardrobe. The neck is so wonderful I could eat it. Growls like a Grizzly and made like a real Mercedes. In fact the parallel with Mercedes abounds in that early Mercs were built to a standard that modern ones can't compete with. This is an opportunity that only those in the know truly appreciate. Forget more modern Warwicks IMO, this is the real deal. So bump!! Peter

    Hiya Yep mine is the non export P/J and it's absolutely mint in that 'off white' colour (Olympic?) with black edging and scratchplate. It never gets played as I have about 19 other basses and only ever have 4 or 5 actually out of their cases. Every time I get it out I find myself wanting to hang on to it But, the right offer would make me consider letting it go to help fund Uni. Peter

    I really enjoyed the earlier Level 42 stuff when MK happened to front a band called 'Level 42'. It then became 'MK slaps for attention' and lost it's appeal. Because of this it's become customary to knock all lvl 42 stuff methinks which I feel is a bit of a shame. Peter

    Very very nice indeed. Great basses. Peter

    Yes it is, there is no scalloped face around the lower horn. Peter

    Bump to the top for all you folks with those TRB4's stashed away in the attic! Peter

    I think it may well be, very nice it is too. Peter

    Hiya Rich I'm really not after money for this one (really) If you know anyone wanting to sell a TRB4 it could be sorted. Pictures to follow on Peter

    Hiya all I have a very nice blue Mk1 TRB6 that I'd be interested in trading for the right Mk1 TRB4. A TRB4P even. Comes with origial case. Why, I'm more likely to use a 4 than a 6 and I already have a lovely TRB5P. Peter

    Surely I'm not alone? Musically I love Jaco Pastorious. His playing sends me into realms of musical delight that few other bass players can manage. Nuance, tone and feel are superb. Peter

    Aha OG a Napier Deltic Peter

    Mange Tout! Peter

    To which my logical reply must be: Which 'makes' of string are tapered? Peter

    I think it's an excessive 20! (Possibly 19?) Although I'm not totally certain. One of those is sold awaiting the original owner to raise the funds to buy it back and I've a new bass being made by Alan at ACG Oh and that was a 'fish' for a BBC bite but he's not taking it Peter

    I know I'm biased but these older Thumbs really are stunning basses. Great wood and superb build quality and they really growl! I particularly like the figuring on that body. All the best with the sale. Peter

    Colin's sound, if a bit pricey. He imports new and used from the US. Not an authorised dealer though I suspect. I bought a Ric from him some yrs ago. He also imports Laklands, F basses and the odd Musicman too. Peter

    Vary nice and white? Unusual Peter

    Really nice in a 'less is more' kinda way. They deserve a good home. Peter

    Hiya Stuart. Some really nice comments and not one 'I hate Warwicks' post. Peter

    For a fair while know I've owned an absolutely gorgeous mint Warwick FNA Jazzman fretless: Now I consider myself pretty good at setting up normal basses, neck relief, action, intonation etc. but I've always struggled with fretless basses for some reason. Oh I can get it to play fine with good action but the Mwaaaah factor is elusive across all the strings except the D in a small range of the neck. You can see btw that the intonation has probably never been set on this bass I presently have the FNA set up with a very small amount of neck relief and a fairly low action. I've tried raising and lowering the action as well as subtly altering the relief and it's not sounding like I desire. I've tried all combinations and I don't think the strings are 'choking' along the board. I've TI Jazz flats on it and I'm about to try rounds (ebony board) unless anyone can offer a better idea or three. Otherwise - Does anyone have a FNA Fretted neck they want to trade? Peter

    Waxing is a pleasure. I think I'm all bassed up now Ped. Russ (Rayman) has the ultimate Stingray in my opinion but going to Uni in Oct means no more spending allowed Must sell some more basses, trouble is which ones? Peter
