I just don’t like the “humour”. Ive seen a few of his videos now, he’s obviously a good player. But I wouldn’t care if I never heard/saw him again.

Little bit of fettling today…ignore the table, currently in dispute with manufacturer/retailer over the state of it. enjoy the basses.

It’s a bit good. Like a Spector made by yamaha…bit of Jaydee in there…mad.

Update 4000… “We’re gonna need a bigger settee”

Yeah, £300 is 424 pricing, £500–£600 is 1024

they’re alright 😂

Then it’ll be there a good while - even if it was £300 less it’d be on the high side.

Been on a while, still £950?

No, seems to work through phone and Facebook - but he’s 100% legit and perfect. Happy to message you his details.

Yup, double bag - I always double bag…🤨

I always take 2, 3 if I have a fretless tune to play. I’ve had moments where I’ve bounced a string too much and needed to swap basses… mostnof the active basses ive owned have had passive modes - but only once has the crackle dead battery happened and that was at a soundcheck so managed to nip to a nearby Tesco for a new one. Ive had an amp Die onstage at the Deaf Institute in Manchester. That was grim. I don’t gig anywhere near as much now so don’t carry a spare amp.

Isn’t the green a more scarce colour? I wouldn’t change it and then find another black?

Just simple. Really lovely.

Yeah, might have to nip the shaft a bit (ellefson style) to make sure the plastic doesn’t split.

White? Whit? Mick, can you send me pic? X

🥴🖕🏼

I was discussing the BBPH (Signed) that @marleaux62 has and might sell… There you go mate - EBAY!

I have had 3 “X” series basses now and feel the metal knobs on the big plate look silly… Now, each time I’ve changed them to the traditional “sucked sweetie” knobs seen on BB’s the plastic knobs always seem to sit too high - too far off the plate. Today when I’d decided the white 424x was staying, I went in my parts draw and retrieved the 2 knobs I’d taken off @lee650’s bb425 (he hates the sucked sweeties…) And pushed them on… “FFS!” I exclaimed loudly…as ever, they’d sat way too proud - it looked stupid. My OCD wouldn’t let it be. So I went looking for my “discarded looms and assorted shite box” and found two splendid spacers made for this exact purpose. Away we go… Yes, I know. Sad, isn’t it?

I’m never coming to terms with that. Although I will say, the 414 and 424 are sat with me playing identically…and…yeah, orange 414 will be fine - if you can find one: they tend to be like busses

My mate swears he prefers the p sound of my orange bb to his 97/98 p. im inclined to agree, because…orange yamaha.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/144059060399 nice 424 in burst on the bay… If you’d rather the 424x version, I could be tempted to list mine here. The white one really has caught my eye.
