  1. Looks lovely, has a bit of a Sadowsky vibe about it. Matches my Fender/Warmoth P/J almost exactly Si
  2. [quote name='visog' timestamp='1433311557' post='2789879'] Agreed although in a MGS you're citing one of the most expensive basses in the world so your examples are a little rarefied. I saw the MGS connection too and it would be great for someone to do an A/B comparison... [/quote] Well if someone buys a Volo, let me know and we can try and sort something out . The 33" B examples were ACG basses, probably circa £1500 new. Si
  3. It's always nice to see newcomers to the field, but I think Pedaltrain have this sewn up at the moment. The Pedaldecks guys above look interesting, but again, probably a third of the size choices that Pedaltrain offer. Great to buy 'British' if they have the size you want, but if not? Si
  4. BBOT bridge that came from a Fender Japan body. 7/10 condition, works perfectly fine, but I think some height adjustment screws are replaced as some are taller than others. £10 plus £2 postage.

  5. [quote name='Chownybass' timestamp='1433249020' post='2789339'] Ha! We'd do one any colour if you were prepared to wait 40 days. [/quote] Oh really? Interesting prospect! Si
  6. [quote name='visog' timestamp='1433270492' post='2789665'] Potentially but it might take some nut & neck adjustment, set-up and experimentation with string gauges to get that low 'B' intonated and ringing properly. Getting a good low 'B' is a challenge on a 34" scale bass let alone 33". [/quote] Oh I'm not sure about that, I've played a few 33" basses that have great B strings, mostly ACGs to be fair. I imagine the restricting factor may be the frets, if they're as small as my MGS (which the Volo is modelled on to a degree), then having anything thicker than a .125 B string would probably just choke out. Si
  7. £100 for a 614, nice! And I thought I got a good deal on a 615 at £180 lol Si
  8. Antigua burst....that's all I'm saying Si
  9. Digitech/Juan have just clarified: The output is TRS: Tip = Octave+Sub, Ring = Dry Sleeve = Ground Boom, you'll need a long insert cable to get from the MB to the amp/DI, but it's workable! Si
  10. Just in case anyone wasn't aware, the auctions are up over here: [url="https://reverb.com/shop/circuitstocurecancer"]https://reverb.com/s...itstocurecancer[/url] Good luck to anyone who is bidding, I certainly will be Si
  11. It is probably the nicest looking P5 I've seen! And obviously pure quality too! Si
  12. Just a shame the dry-out has disappeared. A great way to use the Meatbox through a PA and not destroy your speakers was to use the dry out to your amp and the wet out to your DI box. Si
  13. I reckon my Fuzzrocious BDPG counts [url=http://postimg.org/image/xqzc1zmen/][/url] Si
  14. I don't know much about bass construction (I've played 33" 5ers with lovely Bs). But what I do know is that if you increase the size of the strings core (not the guage of the winding), you increase tension. Si

    I wonder if there's been a run on them?! To be fair I just ordered 1x Pink 1590a, so hardly a large stock Si
  16. I have to say, I went from 19mm 4strings, and an 18mm 5 string, to the 17.5mm of the MGS with no issues. It seems to be a string spacing that lends it's itself to easy playing without being too tight or alien! I had a 16.5 ACG before the MGS and that was a bit tight for me. Anyway, good luck with the sale. Si
  17. Got an indication of delivery date bud? Si
  18. These really are stunning basses. Si
  19. Another beauty! Si
  20. Yes yes yes, but how do you pronounce it??? Si
  21. [quote name='Bikenbass' timestamp='1432411936' post='2781281'] I'm a hideous gonk, never felt comfortable infront of a camera. [/quote] Oh, Mick (The Greek) should take credit for the idea, I'm happy to just try and make it happen Si
  22. Doesn't look anything like Marleux M-Bass. Not a great singlecut shape that! Si
  23. I'd probably leave the neck as it is if it's all original, obviously the bodies worth has been decreased, but if you ever sell it, the neck would up the worth if its untouched. However if the neck has also been fiddled with previously, refinished etc, then why not! Si
  24. Loving it!! Very cool bass you got out of this!! Si
