SKB Bass Safe / SKB44RW Assemble! Two basses in the bass safe
biro replied to biro's topic in Accessories and Misc
I might add that I have the impression that MK2 bass safes might be a little smaller than their predecessor. Number one reason why I think so is that I have been having difficulties fitting a thomann top-of-the-line gigbag in it. True, its leathery finish makes it less slippery than it would be ideal to fit it in the safe smoothly, but still, it didn't look so big in comparison to a normal gigbag. I guess I will have to find a double gigbag and see if it fits. -
Still for sale! -
SKB Bass Safe / SKB44RW Assemble! Two basses in the bass safe
biro replied to biro's topic in Accessories and Misc
Thanks a lot! I have tried with mine (I suppose it's a MK2) and fitting a stratocaster and an Ibanez Soundgear in it seemed quite a tight fit. I might try if I have to, but it does not seem ideal I have to say. Perhaps a thinner bag might help. -
Stunning! I have PM'd you and I shall PM you again until it's mine! -
I am the lucky owner of an SKB Bass Safe, which has proved itself to be one of the best purchases I have made in the last few years. Grab a bass, stick it into a gigbag and fly without a heavy heart. However, I remember reading some time back that it is possible to carry [i]two basse[/i] in the bass safe. This would be fantastic, since I just so happen to prefer to go carry my Jazz Bass and a five stringer if at all possible. So far, I have only tried to put two basses together in the same gigbag (not advisable, I think) and, while it is a snug fit, it's a fit. I was wondering if anybody had any experience with double gigbags (or just one gigbag with two basses) and the bass safe. If that were to work, I'd call myself very lucky. Thanks!

SOLD! -
And it's a bump! Have I mentioned that it sounds great? (Also, I really, really, really don't want to list it on ebay.)

A very nice acquisition! I've come to the conclusion that it is very difficult to go wrong with any SR fiver (indeed, I recently bought a Premium), but the Prestige line is really, really great.
-
Bump. Might now consider trades on this. The trade value is still £ 800 though. I could consider a Jazz Bass (provided that it is a Fender, and in the nicer series) or a Spector (provided that it is 5 strings). Cash adjustments to be discussed where needed!

Still for sale. Bump!

I saw them live too, and I found the experience great—much better than the studio albums!

[quote name='prowla' timestamp='1497632310' post='3319701'] If it's an AllParts, it should have markings to say so? [/quote] Well, it most certainly should. I have another Allparts which does have them. That being said, this neck is not really different from the other one in terms of fit and quality. Again, it was sold to me with the idea it was, and I have no way to check.

Bump.

Maple / rosewood, paddle headstock. Up for grabs. It was originally meant to go long ago, but that never materialised. Free if you pick it up from either central London or Islington.

Hi all, I am moving to Canada and getting rid of some stuff. So, up for grabs a no-name Jazz Bass neck, maple / rosewood. It was sold to me as an AllParts, but I am not sure it is. It is, however, very nice. 125 GBP. Pics if interested! I also have a fretless jazz bass neck that I am happy to give away for free. Please see the topic in the recycling section.

Monday Bump!

Price drop bump!

Bump!

Many thanks! It is a very nice bass, and a joy to play, but I am really looking forward to downsize. Also, moving to Canada means I will probably bring only one bass, so this needs to go.

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I am considering selling this beauty. This is a truly fantastic bass, of which I am probably not worthy. Reason I am selling is that [s]I might go back[/s] I have gone back to simpler five-string bolt on basses and I am moving to Canada for some time. Just can't bring it. I am not, however, fully convinced yet, and I do not have to sell it right away.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]As to the rest, I bought it new in Italy some time back and I have the original semi-hard case that comes with it. Other than changing strings and setting it up with a lower action, this is as close as it comes out of the box as it gets.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Pick up from London preferred. Scroll down to see me playing this beauty (some odd tapping extravaganza). Will do other pics and samples, as soon as I have time, if need be.[/font][/color] Might now consider [b]trades[/b] on this.

Well, Kodiak, I am not taking it after all—because I did sell one once... I give you my blessing!
