    Tried on a few different browsers but no joy.

    I'll try again in a different browser, maybe just user incompetence (cannot be ruled out).

    Just had a look at the site again and noticed the Jake TB, looks very interesting. Does anyone have one? I can't seem to get the configurator to work for this model type, which to be fair is probably a blessing in disguise as I'd be pretty tempted to order one.

    I really like the black sparkle finish on mine. Currently toying with the idea of a B/W/B pickguard for added stealth.

    There is definitely joy to be found in uncovering a gem of a bass that cost not a lot. There are a few other threads on this subject

    Thank you, you are very kind or possibly/probably confusing me with someone else

    In the cold light of day I expect that I am not 'good enough' to play a few of my basses however I enjoy trying to do them justice.

    Welcome to my world

    It did take 2-3 years of perseverance.

    As a serial J bass user in a 3-piece band I can't say that I have noticed the problem. I have also trained our guitarist to not boost his low frequencies to leave me space. I can pretty much use any bass I like this way.

    Ooops, just seen Binky Bass's post.

    These are very good value for the money. I had one for a while whilst doing the whole 5-string thing. https://bassbros.co.uk/product/2016-cort-a5-plus-fmmh-opn-artisan-series/

    Piano would be choice. Still tinkering with the idea of getting lessons.

    Hi folks For sale is this excellent Ashdown Tone Pocket with all the bits some of which haven't even been opened. I'll include a 1/4" jack to mini jack converter too. The contents include tote bag, UK power supply, mini-jack to mini-jack and USB to mini-SUB connectors, plus stick-on belt clip. I appear to have accumulated a few similar devices and as this is the newest and virtually unused item it's up for someone else to enjoy. It has never been out of the house and is thus in excellent condition. I used it just a couple of times to record bass parts onto my laptop. Here's the link to the manufacturer info: https://ashdownmusic.com/products/tone-pocket-v2-0 Mine is the v1 version but I can't see a whole lot that is different. Plenty of YouTube reviews too. £80 posted using 1st Class Recorded Delivery to the UK mainland. If you are a bit further afield in one of the trickier postcodes I will need to add a small supplement I suspect. Thanks for looking and here are some pics. If you'd like to see anything in more detail or indeed have any questions please just ask.

    Update on lead-times. Apparently a batch of the Cali II Central basses is being produced and will hopefully include mine so looking more like 8-9 months now.

    I've only owned one US Stingray, well a Sterling to be precise, and a few Sandbergs. I think the Sandberg necks are right up there in terms of playability with anything out there.

    Close To The Edge was the first LP that ever I purchased.

    Odd isn't it. I've had mine for a good few weeks now and really enjoying it. Taken it to a few practice sessions too and it fits in beautifully. A fellow BCer brought his Will Lee Metro (MIJ) bass around so it was good to compare the two (even though his was fretted obvs). I know he is on the look out for a fretless bass and I think he left with a very positive opinion of my MetroExpress bass. Also very interesting to compare the Will Lee to my Sandberg California II TT passive.

    I'm being quoted 10-12 months. My last Sandberg came in 9 months so looks like things are getting busier over there.

    Hi folks Here we have a Sadowsky preamp on a bell plate. This is two band with active/passive switching and is in excellent condition. It has come from one of the RSD MetroExpress basses that has received a John East Deluxe 3-band jobby as an upgrade. Let me know if you have any questions. Available for a very reasonable £75 posted to UK Mainland. Here are some pics:

    Lead time getting longer for Sandberg basses. Currently 10-12 months so don't hold your breath.

    Just ordered one of these.

    I was quoted £1,364 from Classic & Cool Guitars.
