  1. Weight - my scales have spat a battery…🙄 Its lighter than the Orange BB which is 9.2lb so I’ll say 9lbs the nut is 40mm (just measured)
  2. So, after chasing one of these for a good while - to replace one I stupidly sold… I found an immaculate blue one. it arrived and I was blown away. A minor issue was that the D tuning peg was slipping. Replaced with Hipshot Y tuners. Now smooth as owt. I swapped the knobs out for BB Black speed knobs. Looks loads better. Original Rosewoods can be put back on if you prefer. Wearing Flatwounds, silky low action. Original Knobs (Rosewood) and machine heads (even though one is goosed) will be included. Don’t really want it to go - but the house is too full currently 😂 Had to post a price, happy to listen to realistic offers via PM collection preferred - Manchester Can post at buyers risk. Slip cover gigbag only - so will buy shares in bubble wrap before posting… RELISTED - Since I withdrew the sale, I’ve had the opportunity to get involved with another bass more suited to what I’m doing; I have my main ABG and to be honest, the songs are getting heavier and less acousticy. So, while I’m loathe to do it - I am selling this bass. And I know I’ll regret it, and put a wanted ad up in 18 months…but. I’ve always said “if it’s not in use, set it loose…” (I haven’t always said that…but, whatever…) £20 to post in UK edit - I can do PayPal invoices so you can do on PP credit. Forgot about this…will have to add Fees, but it won’t be much.
  3. Honestly one of the best bass sounds I ever had. Watched a gig back from 2023 with an SR5, just a phenomenal sound.
  4. Came out when I worked in Topman for a Saturday job, every 2 hours that video was on. Horrific
  5. Sweet Caroline is killing me off too, not so much the song but the inane bullshite sports version - good times never felt so good “SOGOOD SOGOOD SOGOOD” - Why? I watch a lot of boxing. I mute it every time it’s on.
  6. I thought Mr Celinder was back making basses? I have played 3 and they were ALL superb
  7. I’m just shy on space now. Waiting for the extension to start so I can reclaim a room for basses
  8. My mate sent me the link - was sold by the time the link loaded 😂
  9. Buy it. Practice isn’t as impressive as looking balls cool with a blue thunderbird… plus, skill (or lack thereof) never stops me buying
  10. Zombie thread… A mate got a Marathon recently and I was instantly besotted. he wouldn’t sell it to me. So I went snooping and found a 1980 sunburst So that’s his one with my ripper - it’s a late 70’s one. this arrives next week
  11. Wish I had the money, that’s properly dream bass level
  12. Don’t you worry. I’m still the final boss of BB’s. 😉
  13. Yeah. I think just a clear pickguard would make it look 20 times better. Anyhow, will leave that to whomever buys it
  14. Totally living the dream… I bought one of these 12 years ago and made a stunning bass - but, a recent bout of spinal pain means I need to wise up. I was stunned at the quality of the body on the original one I built and spent about £500 on making a “custom” from it. it hasn’t landed yet. ive already costed making it exactly what i want…and its £450 on top which im not going to do. but another bass is on the way and it needs to not stay long. Get ready for the weight…14lbs ish. £130 collected £150 posted in UK
  15. I took the orange to rehearsal last week and it absolutely worked. Just being a ripper fanboy
  16. I’m currently off BB’s 🫣 Orange is still here
  17. Sorry yeah it did - will adjust accordingly
