  1. Another bass Deal with Brian - there’s more feedback to come - as we’ve done another one involving a trade this last week. He’s had another vintage Yamaha from me. We’re talking loads and have massively similar taste in bass so it seems. absolute Gent.
  2. Yurs indeeeyud…
  3. That bass with the MM setup would work though
  4. Except one bass in my rack, the other 3 I’ve had for 2 of them for 11 years and the other for 4/5 years. true, the other spaces have been a revolving door 😂
  5. Just seen this on their Instagram feed - looks bloody great.
  6. Only the second time I’ve seen one. Sort of bonkers enough to be cool
  7. https://drive.google.com/file/d/15u4OLhWo3PzCm2ExTylRkHcTB-wQamgA/view?usp=drivesdk very brief - between coming back from the cinema (paw patrol the movie…🤦🏻‍♂️) and baths for the girls. Very unimaginative, but there we go. The bb. With GHS boomers - which are ace.
  8. He took that first photo. And was so pleased… he took 5 more. One is an action shot “it plays so fast, it’s a blur.” ridiculous.
  9. Was a great show - Nick Collins absolutely brilliant. Phil missed a couple of cues and in “That’s all” Went for a chorus when there was another verse. But overall - did really well. He’s obviously up against it (against all odds jokes aside…) Anyhow, if I’d paid £320 I would’ve been a bit underwhelmed, but as my tickets didn’t cost me anything I’m glad to have gone.
  10. All DNA removed…took two hours - whole strip down mate - (you know I keep basses clean). It sounds fab. Some more work to do. But plays, and sounds great, absolutely brilliant. Will attempt some recordings later tomorrow.
  11. Great show so far.
  12. This’ll do 😜
  13. Sounds warm like the 1024 did, but keeps the click and aggression of the 414. literally magic beans.
  14. Obligatory stood up on couch group shot.
  15. Even through the little tour bus 10 it sounds good. Now back to bed with man flu.
  16. Bought some Mad strong glue a while ago to sort some toy for one of the kids. While waiting for the permanent fix, I thought I’d chance it. I reckon it will hold up. For a week. GHS boomers applied. Going to live with it as is - but currently investigating having the brass surrounds, bridge and knobs replated by a trumpet maker I know. And if memory serves from my experience with a 2024…the 1600 wins the acoustics test - it’s absolutely alive.
  17. May have sorted this issue out. Still got some cleaning and oiling to do. So uncharacteristically…I’m going to be patient.
  18. I will be looking for some serious amount of time to find one.
  19. And nothing since to reassure me that I’ve misread the arsey tone.
  20. yeah, really arsey…(you have to read bottom to top)
  21. It’s taken 2 hours: it’s clean. ive got one hell of a plating bill on my hands. fuming:
  22. Yes. I want to keep the bass. But I’ve no clue where I’ll find another - I may have a friend who can help. it’s going to cost me: And the seller, who has already p*ssed me off…by existing…
  23. I’ve walked away right now. why do some people act like this is ok, the bass is absolutely filthy too. not just old. It smells. i am Determined to save it. The bodywork and neck are really clean now I’ve got the layers of dead skin off. I want to swear a lot.
