    Good point. Now corrected. Apologies for being such a luddite...

    It's a nice thing. The body is quite pearl coloured really, an off white if you will. ...:0)

    I think it works if you download Andy? It does for me. I'm not sure how to paste an image into the post. I'll try and work it out and edit it.

    This is a Sunn Mustang which I bought a few weeks ago off ebay. At some point in it's history a previous owner removed the 'Sunn' decal from the headstock. It's a nice P bass copy with a chunky neck. It's got a few dinks and doinks but that adds to the general mojo I think. Since geting it I have changed the bridge for a Wilkinson one. The tuners that were on it were junk, so they have been changed for Wilkinsons also. Fitted a new scratchplate. Fitted a brass nut. Fitted a Fender neck plate. Fiited a new string tree, not particularly fond of the square ones that Sunn used, but I can send it with the bass so you can make your own choice. Now wearing some cobalt flats, which are not old, but the silks are stripping for some reason. Action is now about 2.5mm at the 12th, it plays nicely. I was going to change the pickup as well, but I quite like the one thats on there so I left it. I can supply it with a gig bag. I'll take the neck off to ship it. This would make a great first bass for a beginner, or a spare. I have far too many basses, and I have to stop buying them..... EDIT: PRICE REDUCED TO£120 +P&P. BARGAIN!!!

    Well, there you go. Assumption is indeed the mother of all f**k ups. Would you happen to know what they use?

    Afternoon all, I have a Vintage TB Signature P bass neck that I want to use on a bitsa, at some point the truss rod bullet has been lost- it adjusts at the headstock end. I've tried a fender replacement bullet, but thats too big for the existing hole. Anyone know of an off the shelf type replacement I can buy? Many thanks Stuart

    I have an old Aria Precise bass. Which is a wondeful thing, but I don't really get on with the neck. It's one of the old fashioned chunky ones and I'd like one with a shallower profile. I'd like a roserwood board. Does anyone have any experience of Mighty Mite/Allparts/ those ones from Northwest guitars....Are Warmoth worth it? Any advice appreciated. Stuart

    That is possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen.

    I use a Ui 24. For the money, it's a fantastic device. It'll do 24 channel tracking to a usb as well as mxing. The wifi seems OK. There will inevitably be drop outs from time to time given the way wifi works, but it seems to recover pretty quickly.

    Good bass for that money. GLWTS.

    Evening all, I'm looking for a case to fit one of these basses. It's a tricky business, as they are long, and the headstock is swept back so a deep case is needed. Does anyone know of an off the shelf case that will work for these, or would anyone be able to reccomend a case maker? It's worth noting that I do not want a flight case. Just a hard case would be fine, or even more ideally, one of those hard/soft cases if I could find one to fit.. Any help or steers gratefully appreciated. Stuart

    Phenomenal bass for that money. I have one, which is apparently a factory second. All I can say is, if mine is a second, then Washburn could happily give me all of them. GLWTS.

    Fantastic amps these. Should be better far known than they are. GLWTS

    Bloody good bass for that money. GLWTS.

    Nice scratchplate, mind.

    What are the pickups please? Nice looking bass that. I really don't need it, but God....I WANT IT......;0)

    After an unpleasant incident involving a gig bag, a floor and a detached headstock, I have come to the conclusion that my days of using gig bags are over. So here's my question. I have a couple of generic square hard cases, and I use two matching, but odd shaped basses. Does anyone know of a maker of shaped, foam inserts for square hard cases? Thanks gents...

    what an awesome machine. GLWTS.

    https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_spaceship_80.htm I think this is the biggest board HB do. It's large. This is pretty much immaculate, would love to trade for a smaller board, a 60 or something similar. Happy to post.

    How heavy are they please?

    Thats a nice bass for that money. GLWTS.

    They'll certainly be up for a live band - I think for the smaller room it's sixty quid to hire it (for an evening band type function) and you get that back if there's a certain amount spent over the bar. £400 rings a bell. It would probably be best if we came up with a couple of dates and then I approach them. Any thoughts...?

    I'm up for it. Any thoughts as to a venue? The Hunter Club in Bury St Eds is nice, they don''t seem to do much with the rooms in the day, so I'll happily have a word and see if one can be wangled....

    Looks like these ones are for the later series six and onwards. Mine is a series 5 and the knobs look a bit different. Thanks for the steer though, much appreciated!
