    SOLD As above. In excellent shape. Would sell, or swap for vintage red (or whatever colour is on my fretless P as shown) tort scratchplate. Thanks John

    £30 handed over £40 posted Need this gone.

    Having a P on the sofa is very satisfying. Here are my 2 bitsas. Fretless has tonerider pups and series/parallel switching. Fretted just been put together and soon to have some SD pups replacements. Put a cheeky “Finder” decal on.

    That’s lovely Josh. Not seen one like that before. GLWTS

    Ah, couldn’t see anything on line. Wondered if there was a work around. Shame, Line 6 missed a trick there. The Pod pocket has one, but not the big “bean” Pods. Thanks.

    Something to do with scallops, filing, large hands and the wrong bridge. It’s a perfectly balanced story line apparently.

    Hi, does this have an aux input (for mp3 etc)? I’m guessing this works well as a headphone amp, for practice? Cheers

    Ah! Thanks, surprised it hadn’t been brought up before. 🤦🏻‍♂️😊 I thought they only increased in value once they’d been “improved” for “perfect balance “ by everyone’s favourite wielder of the chisel?!

    Look at the other HBs he’s selling. Some of you are sitting on a gold mine 🙄😂 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Harley-Benton-BZ-7000-NT-7-string-bass-guitar-/265379441659?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

    Well if nothing transpires on the local front, might have to think about posting it John.

    SOLD Clever wife found a padded gig bag in the attic eves that I didn’t know I still had, so I can offer this in a much more straightforward way. Collect, meet up or courier. This is a generic ABS hard shell case. It’s taking up too much room and I don’t use it much. Good working condition, internally little wear, just marks where strings were. It’s got all its feet and the latches work, but it doesn’t have a key to lock. The price is based on similar cases available. I’m based in Bath so meet in and around Bath/Bristol, or sometimes I put a hazmat suit on and venture as far as Bridgwater midweek. Could post, but can we see how face to face works out first? Thanks for looking. Post add £10

    I can think of someone who does some amazing things with neck/bridge scale length conversions. Very unique approach.

    Sorted (just change the plug according to your country)

    Young Carlton was part of that wonderful zinc generation that preceded the golden generation. Which of course achieved the same level of mediocrity as each other.
  16. oldslapper
    Thanks for the suggestions chaps. It’s quite heavily lacquered. Might try heat gun, good shout. Outdoors of course. I could just leave it.

    One of my basses has a Fender decal, it’s not a Fender neck and I’d like to replace it with one of my own decals. However it’s so well embedded, sand paper isn’t touching it so far. I’m loathed to sand agriculturally, but if I must, I will. I have the correct lacquer to refinish, but… Thought I’d check here first for any tips from team BC first. Thanks for your help.
  18. oldslapper
    All yours Paul

    GONE Ordered some decals with my own wording in 70’s Fender style (Finder Decision Bass), but for some reason the fella put these 2 in the envelope with the order. Anyone want these? I’ll post them out FOC or I’ll bin them. Happy either way. Cheers John
  20. oldslapper
    Yeah. It started life as a whole Lexus.

    So…… Ruin a cheap, but perfectly functional bass, claim it has been improved then charge 2.5 times the price? That’s like sawing one of Carlton Palmers legs off, selling him to PSG for 200 million on the basis that he is now “improved, lightweight and streamlined”. The guy is delusional at best.

    Finally put a fretted P together to go with my fretless PJ G&B Ash body (very light) Unknown neck but bleedin’ lovely 42.5mm nut (same as fretless) Schaller machineheads Custom matt black scratchplate Nice vintage bridge CTS pots/orange drop cap Pup is a Wilkinson but I’m changing that for either a Di marzio or a Tonerider to match the fretless. Fretless has an Ash body Unknown neck (ignore Jazz decal, it’s a 43 mm nut) tonerider PJ pups series parallel pull on volume Lovely players, nice low action for my light touch. Here’s the 2 siblings.
  23. oldslapper
    Wow that’s a huge amount of bass for your money!
  24. oldslapper
    Yes, this one is a duplicate of the original. It’s the Encore version.
  25. oldslapper
    Bought some machineheads off Paul. Great guy, super quick delivery too. cheers, John
