  1. There was no question in my OP, but as said, you're certainly not wrong about it being collection only and heavy! Dem fings be the troof! Still, it is a hell of a but of kit for £400 cash collected... can't deny that.
  2. Fantastic basses these... they punch well above their weight. If this was a 6 string I'd have bought it already especially considering I'm about 10 miles from you! Hipshot hardware (even the knobs!), active Bartolini pickups and preamp, through neck, all for a shade north of £300? Great deal, great bass.
  3. Each to their own pal. You're not right and you're not wrong. You do you, I'll do me and the other guy can do him. All the above is great for you. I like a big rig so humbug to your response! 😜
  4. Below is a headless, fretless, bodyless and neckless bass I made, you're welcome to it.
  5. Me 😆 I do love a big, full fat, monster of a valve rig... I'm down that way in Jan, have made a bit of low offer which they've accepted on the basis of no one else buying it in the meantime which suits me fine.
  6. It is big, it is heavy, it is collection only. Out of date - I disagree. These genuinely are excellent amps. Having owned a Mesa Strategy Eight:88, an Ashdown CTM300, a Marshall VBA400, an Orange AD200B, a Trace Elliot V6 and a Laney Nexus Tube, I can confirm that the latter holds up to the best of these valve behemoths. It is an underrated amp. £500 for the full rig is (if you have the spine for it) excellent bang for buck.
  7. Any message that is clearly generic ("please show me your product") is always a massive red flag.
  8. This is a cheap CHEAP brute... essentially a UK made Mesa Boogie Strategy Eight:88 for pennies on the pound. https://ebay.us/m/ucAP4L
  9. To my eyes its not the right bridge, headstock shape, logo positioning or logo style to be a 70's Ibanez. I'd guess its a Westfield or similar with a transfer put on the headstock and a MIJ back plate added. Either way, £60 ain't much dosh!
  10. Lovely bass, right up my street in terms of spec. I find ramps ruin the look of a finely crafted bass such as this - any chance of a photo without the ramp? (I'm not a buyer - I have too many basses, but purely for my viewing pleasure I'd like to see it without the ramp!)
  11. We all know you've had that shouted at you before for very 'different' reasons...
  12. I've always really fancied one of these... but, it has one string too few for me! If a 6er (or 7er!) ever crops up at a not unrealistic price, I'd be very interested.
  13. Here's a slightly prophetic one I found at my parents the other day... A 16yr old me wearing a T-Shirt that says 'Reuben' on it. 22 years later we now have a 2yr old son called Reuben!
  14. I once found a few dozen very intimate personal photographs in the front pocket of a gig bag that came with a Stagg Strat I'd bought locally for £20... Definitely saw more than I'd bargained for! Promptly returned the photos to the person without thumbing through the entire stash!
  15. Tempted by this... I'm in Wolverhampton tomorrow night, I can't get away, but if there's a possibility of meeting at my hotel (Park Hall) then I'd be very tempted indeed.
  16. Sellotape a piece of paper to the back of the chair with the word 'Soiled' written on it and at the end of the day move it to a corner, away from a desk. People wont risk using it.
  17. Is that the new Fodera you've got slung over your shoulder?
  18. Google it, I dare you..
  19. Mine is relic'd after a hot curry.
  20. If you remove one letter from each word you'd have 'Anus Asses'. There, it's been said.
  21. I don't believe these came in a white finish and from looking at the photos it doesn't appear to be a factory quality finish, so I'd assume this was re-done at some point. Do you know what the original colour was and why it might have been repainted?
  22. I'm in Lincoln Tuesday night/Wednesday morning - where abouts are you?
  23. Trolls be trolling... best response is no response (said the hypocrite...)
  24. No social media at all here. Deleted my FB account over a decade ago. Never had an X/Twitter/Instagram account. Though I suppose BassChat is a form of social media... So I'm guilty of that.
  25. @SteveXFR - I have a Marshall VBA400 full stack I'm debating moving on... That'd filth you right up! Just saying... 😉
