[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1406803910' post='2514819'] The twin neck is actually so heavy it generates its own gravity well, and is in danger of collapsing into itself & creating a black hole. This should be a great live gimmick if I can tolerate wearing it for the duration of an entire song. 17lbs, fact fans! Meanwhile, buy Ash's T-40, it's a blinder! J. [/quote] Jon, Steve Harris used to have his acoustic bass on a stand that presented it at the same height as on a strap. A nice stage touch but obviously not as impressive as Edinburgh vanishing into a black hole. Edit, young me with plectrum, verily the work of Beelzebub, Bump [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/img109_zps81f40e15.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/img109_zps81f40e15.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1406744516' post='2514367'] That is the problem just recently people trying to take the piss and asking folk to knock 50-100 quid off sales that is why the market is so stale some people not having much dosh aint helping either but I think this is more than fairly priced [/quote] I'm the same. My Warmoth is an amazing bass for the sale price, simply not going to go any lower. Tom's is very fairly priced. And with it being one of his it will be VERY well sorted! Mind, last week/this week, two busiest holiday weeks of the year, so it may just be a bit quieter Bump.

[quote name='MarkusWarwick' timestamp='1406662737' post='2513570'] Is this a mehicano? [/quote] Yes it is. I have a FSR passive version in Sea Foam Pearl and it is the ONLY bass I gig with now. My Alembic, Thumb, Sadowsky, all gone. The Mex FSR passive will do everything from Etta James to Diamond Head, all with a jazz neck, no effects and without breaking into a sweat. Unlike me

Willing to look at other trades before I part it out. 3 x 54 Precisions is too much for one man I MAY have a couple of hundred quid for the right bass, but remember the trade value of this, in my eyes, will be a bit higher than that for a cash sale. Probably about £550 value on a trade. Cheers, Karl.

Here's my 2002 American Standard translucent Sunset Orange made just before they went to S1's. This will be up for sale in two months when my custom jazz arrives (my subs are paid until next year so not a stealth ad ). Original scratchplate is white but I preferred black.

[quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1406353820' post='2510821'] Karl that is beautifully understated, a lovely bass and I bet it sounds even better too. Good luck with the sale buddy. (I once had a sunset orange jazz, can't remember where I put it now........ nurse can I have my medicine pleas........) [/quote] Thanks Tom, yup it does sound very good. Wenge neck, ebony board, mahogany body, SD Custom Shop pup, it would need to sound good with those top components. Your Sunset Orange. You put it in the box and asked the nice man to bring it to me . Nurse, up his meds!

[quote name='AttitudeCastle' timestamp='1405615479' post='2503709'] What is the neck profile like? So very tempted by something like this, but also constantly being reminded I'm a penniless student! Unfortunately not a huge fan of 1.5" (curse my hands!) used to a 1.7-1.78 width and it's more my preference. (I'm not over compensating I swear...) Stunning bass though mate, best of luck with the sale! Stop having great (ie similar) taste to me Karl haha! What's your main bass these days? [/quote] Sorry Adam, just seen this. Currently using my 2014 FSR Sea Foam Pearl passive p/j. Mexican and superb. Bump.

[quote name='ash' timestamp='1406109526' post='2508343'] I must have missed that bit or the alcohol had taken its toll! Ha! Ha! I wish the female population of a Lancaster believed that but thanks for cheering a chap up My Achilles is on the mend I'm a one crutch bass player now. Gotta say that it's a standing joke with me and my mate who is a massive Lynyrd Skynyrd fan - we always and I mean always shout for 'Freebird' at every gig we go to no matter who is playing; Magazine, VDGG, Manics, Eels, Bill Bailey, Courtney Pine, any pub band, blah, blah.... You lot did it and did it well rendering my mate speechless [/quote] A speechless mate, usually a good thing except at bar time! [quote name='AttitudeCastle' timestamp='1406152010' post='2508927'] STOP BEATING ME TO THE ROCKSTAR LIFE. Seriously though Karl, glad things have worked out! [/quote] I'm pushing 40 years older than you Adam, hardly beating you to it fella
