  1. I can bring my pedal board along too if folks want to try anything out. It has a Korg Pitch Black mini tuner; T-Rex Quint; Sansamp YYZ overdrive; TC Electronic Thunderstorm flanger; Keekey Bassist compressor; Digitec Drop pedal and a Micro Thumpinator.
  2. I'll be aiming for around 10:00 as well.
  3. It's just that headstock. It really doesn't float my boat. Apologies from a very shallow person.
  4. From the Sandberg website for the TT bases (both VS and TT are the same neck it would seem): 4-STRING FINGERBOARD RADIUS - 14 inch WIDTH ZERO FRET - 37 mm THICKNESS 1ST FRET - 20 mm WIDTH 22TH FRET - 63 mm BRIDGE STRING SPACING - 18.5 to 20 mm SIZE FRETS - 2.5 mm NECK PROFILE - c-shape
  5. Just acquired a lovely bass from Jamie. Brilliant to deal with as has been said often in this thread.
  6. Yes indeed Ian, that's really why I suggested it since you know about how good these little gems are for not much money either. I believe that the neck was common to both the P and the J Silver Series basses as a good compromise between the two. I think all the Electra's are all active (not sure if they have the pull for passive vol. knob like the German Sandbergs). I've owned an Electra VS bass (P bass) and that sounded 'crisper' for want of a better word than the Fender/Squier offerings. There's a nice black TT f/s on here which I was eyeing up the other day, not too far away maybe to try out. I know the seller, lovely guy.
  7. Sandberg Electra TTs are nice basses, great neck. Also, and if you can find one, the much underrated Squier Silver Series basses. Made in Japan and very decent instruments indeed.
  8. I'm going to change the bass line up I'll be bringing as I have now sold the SBMM, Yamaha and Ibanez basses The line up will be: Limelight "Lee Sklar" bass; ACG P-Type (one of only 2 in the world); ACG Graft J Type and ACG SLG 32" scale + practice amp and headphones.
  9. Same for me and I echo the thanks.
  10. Aidan just acquired some tuners from me. The perfect transaction, thanks very much.
  11. Thanks very much, if nothing closer is available I'll PM you later.
  12. I'm in urgent need of a box to ship a bass but for once I don't actually have one. Help of the BC community would be much appreciated!
  13. Hi folks This just popped into my messages. Looks dodgy to me. Why would Reverb Support use Daniel's Gear Locker as their account?
  14. Hi folks I bought these and then have decided not to use them. I know, what a fidiot. So, 4 brand new, unopened tuners for your bass. With Lollipops! They fit a wide range of Mex and Squier basses, but as ever check before you buy. These cost £96 new so grab yourself a bargain. Now sold, thanks for the interest. Here's pic.:
  15. SOLD ELSEWHERE For sale is my lovely and increasingly rare Geddy Lee Signature Jazz Bass. This bass is from the first limited production run of these basses from Japan with the ‘F’ logo neck plate and "Limited Edition" engraved on it. The bass is in excellent condition for a 25yr old bass. The frets are in very good nick with little visible wear. The electrics are in full working order and the bass is all original. The American Vintage pickups have a good strong output and a great tone to them. The instrument weighs 4.3kgs by my scales so not bad at all for a Japanese Jazz bass of this period. The bass comes with the original pickguard and an aftermarket white pearloid pickguard with the Amalgamation sticker on it currently fitted and in the pics below. There is also a good quality Fender gig bag. As ever I'd prefer to meet up and am happy to jump in the car and meet half way somewhere rather than risk a courier if humanly possible. Courier would be the last resort and will be at cost to you. Any questions, please do ask. Happy to do more pics as required as well. Try out here are welcomed and a full beverage service will be available. Here are some pics. As you can see photographing shiny black basses is not a key skill of mine. I have tried to get a few different angle to negate the various reflections, and the pick guard in definitely not light blue! I can say without doubt the bass in in excellent condition.
  16. For me probs either Starship Trooper or maybe Spirit of the Radio. Arthritis not helping me much though.
  17. I think I remember from somewhere that the MIJ ones are actually 60s positioned pickups.
  18. Very nice indeed. Is that the one from Will?
  19. NOW SOLD ELSEWHERE It really pains me to have to put this up for sale, but increasing trouble with my hands means playing (in my case trying to play) a 5-string bass is increasing painful due to, the doc says, increasing arthritis in my fingers. I can manage a J-type neck and some P-type necks and I fully intend to keep managing as long as possible, but the wider fretboards I now really struggle with, and not just because of an absence of talent. This bass is the full monty. It has the Multi Coil pickups and the DFM filter preamp, a one piece body with a very subtle top wood. The scale is 34" and best of all it is very lightweight at only 3.9kgs (or 8lbs 10oz). The full spec is here: https://acguitars.co.uk/project/0446ukrell5-34/ Other points to note is that the bass has a rounded body edges rather than the beveled style featured on the Krell basses. Also, the cutaway to accommodate the forearm is the more usual style seen on many basses. Current ACG models mostly have a scalloped cutaway. Both of these features are my person preference. I would much prefer to meet and hand over the bass due to its value. I would be happy to either sell the bass outright or do some kind of part ex deal. Please PM me if you have anything that you think may interest me. But please note the comments above. The bass is strung with TI flats and comes with a superb soft-hardcase. Here are the pics, please let me know if you would like to see anything in more detail or indeed if you have any questions. Thanks for dropping by.
  20. A question that also troubled me. At least two retailers are still taking order so I have tried with Thomann on the basis that they may have good purchasing power. Quite annoying really as I bought the tuners in case there was a rush on them as well. Still I'm sure I'll find a good use for them.
  21. I am trying again via a well known German box shifter....
