Yuk, I can't see there'd be a massive appeal for it - but it might be what some people have dreamed of. It's the string spacing that really puts me off, like it was made for guitarists to play with a pick.

Believe it or not your PM's are not accessible without directly querying the SQL database (outside of forum software), which only me and phatmonkey have access to, alas I am too ignorant to know how .

I'd go for Mazetti on that as well.

You bought an Ashdown for something more reliable ? Hahahaha... think of Ashdown as the bass equivalent of Alfa Romeo. p.s. I am an Ashdown user and fan .

Yeah ask of the admins.. oh.

Mmmm, I think I prefer the turquoise one, want want !

D'Addario EXL (Nickel) are my favourite. PMT wanted £35 for a 5 string set - I remember buying some online for £15 a couple of years ago (same website now £20) ! Oddly I didn't take the plunge in PMT. Rotos i've also decided I hate, they may have some big name endorsees - but they don't have to pay for a new set when they go dead after a couple of weeks do they ? I put some Warwick Reds (the cheap ones) on my Fender Jazz, and to be honest - they're actually pretty good. I think they were £11 for a set, can't argue with that. I wish I were in the position to try lots of different strings, but they're too expensive to try out so I stick with what I know.

Limiting the dimensions of linked images is the main issue, not sure how that can be worked around without disallowing them entirely.

Personally I think MythSte should sort his signature out .

Those Vintages have been out a few years, Fender aren't really like other big names with their rights protection and don't seem to see it as much of a threat. I've played a couple and was fairly underwhelmed.

I've done plenty of trades on the forum, but always face to face. If this isn't feasible i'd suggest you check the reputation of the seller through tracking their post history, have they sold to people before etc ? Has anyone created a thread about them in the [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showforum=23"]Feedback forum[/url] ? If not, you really have to ask yourself if you trust this person based on your dealings with them so far, alas if you have reservations - it's best to let it go. If you do encounter problems however, we as moderators can attempt to mediate on any dispute, but cannot guarantee we will provide a result as we do not take any responsibility for transactions made by people on the forum. .

Ergh, they've overegged the pudding for sure.

I had a 5 string for a year or so, it was great but in the end I wanted something else. Definitely top quality and lots of tones to be had from it though.

Ibanez should reissue them - i'd be after one if they did.
