    I've recently bought another Jazz bass with a rosewood board, ( I always play on maple boards exclusively) I wanted to see if if this one would produce a brighter sound than the last 2 or 3 did. All I seem to get is a sound like dead strings. When I tried the new one it just thumps and stops a bit like flats do so I've realised that finally rosewood boards don't ring out like maple do. I even put new rounds on it with no change in the sound. There really is a big difference between maple and rosewood, but I've played maple for many years so I do notice the change.

    The pic is of Lloyd Grossman, tv personality and saus maker. Our Martin is a bit surreal sometimes

    Another day and another fine deal with Michael, I sold him my Teal Stingray 2eq in 2010 and I have just bought it back! absolute gentleman, scholar and acrobat, and my bass is still in the mint condition it was when he bought it. Great to deal with and I would highly recommend him to trade with. Rock on Michael! Tom.

    The truth is, I cannot see where the splinter was and I'm willing to bet no one else can either. The fact that it hangs on the wall by its neck is a testament to the strength of the repair.

    Hi all, this is my SUB 4 which was the subject of a broken headstock documented here Aidan from this site repaired it for me and the job he did on it is absolutely spot on. I cannot see any joins at all as the pics should show The neck has not moved at all and the action is as low as when it was done. It hangs on the wall without a problem and I'm only selling it because I'm getting my real Stingray back tomorrow from the gentleman I sold it to in 2011!! Happy days. Plays perfectly, looks great. Price is posted.

    We play in a lively Methodist church on Sundays, we have a decent band and play 'soft rock' kinda songs. We love it and my wife is the worship leader and plays a Taylor 12 string, happy days!

    I have at the moment 2 sterling subs, the cheap ones, £325 or cheaper. They are 2 eq and I can't really find fault with them. I did think the G was weak but when I asked the "deck tech" he said it was fine, it's your ears that's the problem and he's probably right as I am a bit deef in my left ear so I don't worry about it now. I bought a Real Stingray 2eq in about 2008 and sold it on here about 3 years later and have been trying to get it back ever since. But these SUB's are almost as good imo. I've been a Precision man now for quite a while but I'n finding the stretch between frets is an issue because my hands are arthritic.

    Bit expensive...

    Really good basses these, looks very like mine did. Wish I could have it.

    My showgroup in 1969 had one of these connected to 2 Selmer columns and it powered my 12 string electro acoustic AND the bass. It was so loud, it was even adequate for the Mayfair Ballroom in Newcastle! Awesome amps, someone will get a bargain here. GLWTS.
