GruvGear Duo now £50 posted. It's as new.

Price drop £1750 for a straight sale.

Price drop for the bank holiday weekend. £825. As stated above, I'm traveling to Cambridge tomorrow if anyone's interested.

I'll be working in Cambridge on Friday 28th. That's basically "The North" as far as I'm concerned so may be suitable for a shady carpark deal in classic BC style 👍

BFR Bump 👍

Just to confirm, I'm up for trades especially if they include cash my way 👌

StingRay Special HH Dargie Delight 3 Ball Family Reserve, completed on January 25th, 2019. It was a limited run and is number 62 of 98 instruments produced. It weighs 4kg/8.8lb and is in excellent condition. It sounds fantastic and has a silky smooth low action. The bridge pickup is especially fat sounding and really nails the classic Stingray tone we all love. It's a stunner!

What's that, looks a bit mad!? I'm not sure it would be 100% effective on that to be honest.

Bump for this rare beastie.

Mono sold

It does indeed.

GruvGear Duostrap Neo - NEW! I bought this recently as I have a dodgy shoulder and a fairly hefty bass. I unpackaged it, attached it to the bass and quickly realised that I can't use the second strap as my bass doesn't have a standard upper horn.. Doh! I should add that this is quite clear in the marketing blurb for the strap. I'm just a numpty. Anyway, this is literally as-new and extremely high quality. "This is what you've been waiting for: The DuoStrap Neo is our answer to the search for the most comfortable, ergonomically-correct, AND affordable guitar and bass strap. Endorsed by professionals including Dr. Randall Kertz, renowned chiropractor and physician, the DuoStrap's patent-pending balanced weight distribution offers unmatched comfort like its Signature counterpart, thoughtfully constructed with synthetic materials! Significantly reduces shoulder pain and strain while keeping a natural and comfortable playing position. The DuoStrap Neo comes in all-black 3.25" wide soft-rolled neoprene, with lengths adjustable from 33" to 44" and an extra-long option that brings the total usable length to 56". £50 posted Mono Betty - L, 47"- 59" *SOLD* I've had this for a few years but never really used it so it's in good condition. It's the long version. "Like the cases, the GS1 Strap series is designed with indestructible materials, lightweight construction and smart features to provide the ultimate playing experience. A classic, minimalist design sporting hi-tech materials, the GS1 brings the past into the future with a feel that must be worn to be believed." Comfort Strap - L, 38"- 45" Another one that hasn't had much use, some light bobbling on the underside but in good condition. "The Pro Bass Series consists of a wider design through the shoulder area, providing added support for the typically heavier bass instrument. Neoprene pad tapers to 3" from 3.5". £22

A few more shots, it's a very difficult finish to capture accurately.

Thanks, it is a bit of a beast!

It's 41mm at the nut 👍

Thanks, the photos don't really do it justice it's an awesome looking thing.

The good old US & A.

Custom Shop Washburn Stu Hamm SHB3, hand made in the USA. This remarkable instrument is actually the second SHB3 I've owned. Designed from scratch by Stu Hamm and the Washburn custom shop to be the "perfect bass". Ergonomics are particularly important to Stu, and that's one of the main reasons I tried to find another one of these. It's incredibly lightweight and so well balanced that you hardly know you're wearing it. You can tell that every element of the design has been carefully considered and laboured over. It features USA Hipshot tuners (with drop D extender), slim figured/flamed maple neck with a lovely tactile finish, radial neck joint (a particular favourite feature of mine), nicely figured rosewood board, meticulous fret-work with invisible fret ends, TUSQ nut, a slim contoured body, custom EMG X pickups, a Hipshot Bridge with piezo saddles and a custom EMG X 18v preamp. It weighs just 7.5lbs/ 3.4kg and comes with the Washburn flightcase with the original tools etc. By using a combination of the MM and J pickups you can cover most of the classic bass sounds, I particularly like to favour the neck pickup slightly for a fat traditional tone with added weight. Bare in mind that the electronics are from EMGs 'X' series, which are designed to have the benefits of active pickups with the more traditional response and dynamics of passive pickups. Standard EMGs these are not. Also If you turn the MM/J pickups down, engage the piezo bridge and boost the bass, you get a very passable upright bass sound. I've owned a lot of high-end basses, Wal Fodera, Celinder, Sadowsky etc. and in terms of build quality and execution this is right up there with the very best.

I've had a measure up and it's 100mm between the pole pieces of each pickup, so 70's spacing. I'm quite surprised by that as I've had a few 70s reissue Fender Jazz basses and I never normally like the bridge pickup solo sound due to it being a bit thin and clanky. This on the other hand has a thick and meaty tone, more reminiscent of a 60s Jazz.. Strange.

Hmm, I'm not sure now you mention it. I added a pickguard to see if it became clear, I'm leaning towards 70's? Any thoughts?

I've had more than my fair share of jazz basses and these are right up there with my favourites. They have so much character in terms of feel and tone. They work especially well with flatwound strings, which this one is currently wearing. Tone perfection.

All the Moons I've had have been great, awesome machines.
