    I had an ATK200. Took bridge off out of curiosity and it was just like a normal bridge but a bit, bigger.

    Wood.

    Nice. Proper Stingray killer they are.

    I've used Zoom multi FX since I started playing, I like the way they're laid out and are moderately simple for on the fly changes. My current B3n is great, however since updating the firmware it randomly crashes if it's been on a while requiring the power to be reset, it tends to keep doing this after it has once (not overheating). By good chance, it has only done this at home and never a gig so far.

    In 2005 I recall going into Sound Control Manchester and they had about 30 Warwicks. They just are a bit passe nowadays.

    They have hardly anything in stock if you look closely at their website. 1070 products to order, 29 actually in store. Of which 5 are Yamaha/Ibanez.

    My other basses are all passive P and J types, this is quite different obviously. The preamp is crazy had to turn it right down, less is more with this thing.

    From your location - I would suggest PMT Nottingham.

    I really don't need this, but it looks nice. Bought 2nd hand from GuitarGuitar Birmingham last week. Learning curve is pretty steep as i'm usually on 4 strings, but i'm getting there. Not brave enough to gig it yet.

    I'll bring my GenzBenz Neo 350w and EICH 112 cab with something I haven't sold by then. Could be something I haven't even bought yet. Gas is fun.

    Finally one on a weekend I don't have the kids. Count me in.

    I turned it down at £425 despite it only being a mile away I wasn't that excited about it really. Wanted a bargain but more than the bass itself.

    I'm unsure if these instruments have any particular unique selling point that other brands at this price point may have. The fact they are backed up by Dan Lakin to me means they will be great instruments, but so far they look very anonymous in an ocean of Fender clones. (with Lakland at least, the oval bridge is distinctive). The previous fate of the 'D Lakin' basses was quite tragic also, they seemed to not sell very well anywhere despite being good instruments. I would expect these to be on par with Skylines in general, if not made by the very same factory (and i'd wager they are).

    G&L L-2000.

    I had a similar experience with a J&D Jazz bass with DV247, the courier lost it and DV247 took too long to sort, so I cancelled the order. It made me realise I didn't actually want it. I then didn't use them for 2 years until they were the only place that had what I needed in stock, but this experience was without fault so they were redeemed.

    Sounds like you didn't really want the bass that much if a few days delay puts you off the entire purchase

    Sold

    I picked this up in a trade earlier this year, and despite it being every bit the instrument I expected it to be, it is more than I need with several budget basses I like and can happly gig, thus I have had to decide I would be better off with the cash in the bank for boring real life things (house, car etc). A few minor dings, nothing unusual for it's age and it has definitely been utilised in a live environment, but not carelessly. Sounds thunderous and I've had compliments from the band and Joe Public for the tone I had. This is a 2014 model with 3 band EQ and 5 way switching, it is also very light for a SR5 at 9lbs. The 5 way switching makes it a much very versatile bass, thumpy P sounds are totally viable along with the classic Ray sound. Current price for a new Stingray 5HH is about £2300. Collection vastly preferred (J10 M42) but can post for ~£30 with a few days notice.

    Wow those are ugly. Loosk like a 2 year old was let loose on them with the craft box contents. In the dark.

    I picked up a 2nd hand one for 230 quid last week. Definitely better than standard Epiphone bolt on. Gibson pickups seem pretty beefy too.
  21. Machines
    I had one for a bit. Nice with flats, never rounds on these.

    Hofner Verythin.
  23. Machines
    Build it and they will come or something.
  24. Machines
    Wow, so bargain. Much cheap.
