    $3 saving on 10,000 basses. probably. scrimp scrimp scrimp. keep costs down, push prices up. etc. Got excited when I saw “electric blue” - but then realised it’s just a flat blue paint like the Squier affinity Baltic blue from 10 years ago. meh.

    They did it on the Jaguar Bass in about 2005

    I actually made it to Bass Bros, finally… Mrs Travis booked us a little break to Stratford as we’re both on holiday. Did all the Shakespeare gubbins etc. @Willfunk and I had been talking about my Gibson and a Stingray 5 he had in stock. Now, because I’m useless with geography - I’ve no clue where anything is…I did not realise how close I would be this weekend. Will and I have dealt with each other a few times now; at some point in the past via BD, and I’ve sold a few basses to him. Anyhow, a quick message back and forth - I collected the stingray today, and the Gibson leaves tomorrow (wish I’d took it with me now, but didn’t realise until I got to Stratford). Anyhow - he was chilled, ace and it was a nice place to be. Impressive space with some great gear.

    Sell Us Your Guitar are reputable - an ex colleague of mine runs it. Its in Manchester, but they offer a fair enough price… Don't know if that helps

    I actually have no clue “Electronics: Bartolini HR-4.6AP/918 (Active/Passive circuit). Layout: Vol-Blend-Mid (250-800Hz parametric) Bass/Treble stack.” that’s what was listed on Phil Mann’s website before he put trickfish on there…

    3 band. No passive mode that I’m aware of.

    Yeah, every time I’ve pulled a fender out (even posh CS) there’s been no comments. Pull out a Gibson Ripper - people ask to have their photo taken with it. The Jack Casady basses “ooh they’re nice them” etc. The BB having been my longest serving bass has never actually done a gig with me…

    Don’t…I’m still McGiver’ing a plan. Currently sat at £500 😆

    Yeah I’m strictly on one in one out now “it’s ridiculous now Trav…” says the wife. Because the LP is going…this can really stay. Nothing else I’ve got does this sound.

    Will listens to offers - trades… if @silverfoxnikwants to talk about the m6 🤣

    Happy to listen to offers on this as I’ve no intent on fitting it to anything and I have nowhere to store it. Would entertain trades on a pedal, fresh sets of strings etc. Fanks xxx

    It’s not improving the more I think about it. I was genuinely accused of being “aggressive” today…because I didn’t understand why I was accosted for unplugging a 3 plug adapter (not in use) so I could plug my extension lead in. still reeling over it.

    Waste of time today. everyone knackered, 9.30 on a Saturday, rushing as drummer had somewhere to be. All grumpy and ready to misinterpret one another: we played shite, absolute waste of time.

    In all honesty, it’s a lot of messing about when there are other pre-made cabs that do that job… I don’t like pissing about with speaker cabs and amps. if it’s not doing what I’m after, just sell and move on. To be fair - I like these orange cabs. so I might just find another cab for the other band with a tweeter and crack on.
  16. AndyTravis
    Gone…this arrives Monday/Tuesday so if you want this LP it’ll be at Bass Bros.
  17. AndyTravis
    The orange one is plenty…

    Stingray 5 in Honeyburst… Or a D-Roc. No Yamaha on the horizon
  19. AndyTravis
    always a possibility
  20. AndyTravis
    I have 1 Yamaha 😆

    So this is the “I’ll not sell this one” bass. It sounds perfect, quite modern and crisp…not vintage plummy Gibson. Does an MTD’ish style, seems to pull musicman sounds but will do vintage stuff, Ace, Mahogany Set neck, Mahogany Body, Beautiful flamed Maple Lid…Schaller Hardware, Bartolini Electronics… Original Case and Gibson paperwork (one latch not functioning) I will include the knobs it came with - seem to be very heavy duty, and the Gibson speed knobs I’ve bought to get it back to factory. 34” scale, ebony board: new battery recent GHS flea strings - very low action… Some small marks, nothing at “ding” level. Specific trades… Musicman Stingray 5 - Honeyburst/white pickup preferred Dingwall D-Roc/NG 5 string: if this doesn’t sell…no hardship, but I need a 5 for the band I’m using it for…and the ripper and Jack Casady’s do the other band.
