You aren't getting many replies as other than Jeannies, you'd have to get one custom made.

[quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1399915458' post='2448931'] Hmmm, it looks like Strings & Things do sell parts now, like preamps... but not pickups, as far as I can tell.

Also the headstock decals looked very amateurish as you could see they were waterslides lacquered on top.

Played a few at a stand at a music show last year. I don't get what they're trying to achieve as they're far eastern made parts just put together in the UK for a lot of money. They played ok but I didn't see the value in the UK setup side of things, especially for £60ish.

They not particularly amazing or sought after, but the brand name should keep the price up. I think £400 isn't impossible I'm the right circumstances.

I had a holoflash Q6 I sold for £300 in 2007.

I've been amazed at the tone some people get out of the exact same model as I have but to consider is their strings, action, amp, playing style etc.

You will never get the answer you need on the internet. You need to play both and see what you want.

50% off and probably still making a profit.

Wow, spam alert ?

What's this then ? http://basschat.co.uk/topic/228190-lakland-skyline-joe-osborn-signature-5-string-sunburst/page__pid__2356776#entry2356776

2nd hand Lakland would be a good choice. Depending on your tastes a used Joe Osborn or 55-02 would be superb value for around £700

I was in Bass Direct today and picked one up. Didn't play it as it weighed a tonne and the body was very thick, didn't like it at all. Your mileage may very.

The top section follows the exact same contour as the top horn on the standard version, but it's too much of a gap and just looks, how else can I put it other than sh*te ?

It's was maybe done by the same designer that did the Grooveline. Mad Eyes Murdoch. [Img]http://wwwdelivery.superstock.com/WI/223/1647/PreviewComp/SuperStock_1647R-93426.jpg" class="ipsImage" />

Hmm proportions are all out. The horn is too extruding and the top part seems too fat.

My guitar rack holds 5 and I've 2 cases under the bed .

T-40s aren't rare but ones with all original parts and fully working are a bit more so. I've had this one a few years so replacing it with someone else's later wouldn't be the same. Thanks for everyone's views so far !

I played them all last night. I think it'll be the precision and the L2000.Maybe.

My Dad has promised his collection of guitars to be bequeathed to me anyway if the time comes so i'm happy i'll have stuff from him he used. Strictly speaking the T-40 was bought with the profit we made between us from buying/selling guitars so in a way he contributed there too. Regarding the 'grab 2 basses in a fire hypothesis' - I took the Lakland and the Peavey.
