  1. [quote name='roman_sub' timestamp='1454577269' post='2970881'] Looks a stunning example of a classic bass [/quote] Stunning bass and stunning sound !!
  2. [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Here is a virtually immaculate Thumb NT 4 from 1989. There is hardly a blemish anywhere. Close up pictures are available on request. [/font][/color][color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]The details: 34", 18mm string spacing at the bridge (adjustable), 38mm top nut, EMG pups and circuitry weighs 4.7kg and comes with a brand new Warwick Rockbag, User Kit with unused polish, cloth, padlock and all tools.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]This is an absolute beauty and sounds wonderful with that Thumb growl that you can only really get with the early Thumbs. It has a super slim neck profile and simply feels silky smooth.[/font][/color]
  3. PM'd
  4. Neat deal and everything as smooth as a smooth thing. Cheers, Rob.
  5. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1453283198' post='2957996'] Mmmm, lovely [/quote] Thanks, it is lovely to play and to hold Other 4 string trades considered to the same value so feel free to PM me!
  6. [size=4][font=verdana, geneva, lucida, lucida grande, arial, helvetica, sans-serif][color=#141414]Here is my unused Marleaux Consat Custom 5 with a beautiful Flamed Pear top on a mahogany body.[/color][/font][color=#141414] A [/color][color=#141414]34" scale bass, very lightweight - 4.1kg, 45mm top nut, string spacing is 18mm but adjustable, has a zero fret, very slim neck profile making for a fast easy playing experience. Very ergonomic styling and lovely balance whether on a strap or sitting. Great, versatile electronics with an active/passive switch. Comes with a semi-rigid case, tools and documents.[/color][/size]
  7. [quote name='Paulhauser' timestamp='1451755683' post='2943150'] I think it's got more to do with the fact that this bass has 29 frets so the fingerboard reaches all the way to the pickups. Great bass with many nice features and if I were living in your area Scooby I'd pop in for a try with an intention of purchase but alas, I'm not. [/quote] A short flight away...quite close really Update: would seriously consider being reunited with a Warwick Thumb NT pre 1990...
  8. [quote name='tomuks79' timestamp='1451753148' post='2943124'] very nice bass, but neck picup very close vith neck, comfortable for slaping? [/quote] Very comfortable to slap, tickle and generally play every which way ! The slap technique does depend on the string height/action but I haven't found it a problem at all.
  9. Seems like this is available again!! Bumping for a very special piece of bass
  10. [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]This beautiful piece of craftsmanship from Martin Petersen (Sei) was built in 2014 and is in superb condition. [/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]It's a 34" scale, top nut is 53mm, 17mm string spacing (adjustable), weighs approx 4-2kg, Neck-thru, Nordstrand pups with wooden covers, Aguilar OBP-3, GK-KIT-BG3 Roland MIDI system, blue LEDS. The bass comes with a Roland GR20 floor midi effects system and midi cable, that allows you to produce amazing amount of sounds - from the bizarre to the beautiful.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Overall, the bass is so easy to play and the neck profile is slim all the way along. The bass will be shipped in a thickly padded gig bag.[/font][/color]
  11. Just a quick word of warning if you're thinking, or may in future, purchase or trade anything from Spain. One of their biggest and main couriers are SEUR, which is part of DPD. They have the most pathetic and appalling approach to shipping that I have come across. Firstly, they failed to turn-up to collect the item in Spain. The Seller had to then travel quite a journey to actually deliver the parcel to SEUR. The parcel was to be delivered within 3-4 days. Their limited tracking stated that the parcel was 'in transit' four days after being taken to their depot. After contacting DPD UK, they confirmed that the parcel was still at the depot in Spain and that the 'in transit' message simply meant that DPD UK had been informed to expect a parcel - no mention of when or how! Now, seven days later, DPD UK assure me the parcel is still in Spain and a message from SEUR confirm that the parcel hasn't yet managed to leave their depot. They cannot explain why or precisely where the parcel is in their depot. Their attitude is "We have your money, we have your bass and you don't...tough". I have to state that the situation is not, in any way, the responsibility of the sender who went out of his way to get the parcel to SEUR's depot after they couldn't be arsed to collect it. It does make you think that it might be more expedient and less stressful to fly out to wherever you have sourced your item and collect it yourself - quite possibly cheaper too and you get a bit of a holiday into the bargain. Anyway, be warned, SEUR/DPD are a nightmare.
  12. Sold Russ my Boss GT6B. Great guy to deal with. Highly recommended.
  13. Keith bought a PJB C4 from me. Great guy to deal with. Until the next time...
  14. Paul bought my SKB hard case. A very easy and pleasant transaction. A real pleasure doing business with you, Paul, thanks.
  15. A multi-effect laden bump...
  16. Ho, Ho, Ho a Christmas pressie to yourself?
  17. [quote name='Dazed' timestamp='1448982011' post='2919778'] How do these handle Low B or lower ? [/quote] Quote "...[font="Times"][size="4"]produces rich, deep, and powerful bass, right down to the open B string and even below. Transparent high frequencies, smooth mid range and overall dynamics provide punch and clarity. Slapped bass has a new snap; acoustic bass sounds pure and authentic. Your bass is going to sound like a better instrument." From Phil Jones [/size][/font] [font="Times"][size="4"]The cab handles the low B just fine but I cannot say for a note lower than [/size][/font][font=Times][size=1] [/size][/font][font="Times"][size="4"]that! [/size][/font]
  18. Now only ONE C4 lite cab available, [b]£250 inc shipping to mainland UK. [/b]
  19. [quote name='cigir' timestamp='1448625168' post='2916919'] what about string spacing? [/quote] String spacing is a shade under 18mm. However this can be slightly adjusted either way using the unique bridge saddles. The bass can also easily be strung B-G or E-C without any problems - and still sounds awesome
  20. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Together these cabs can handle 800watts of power. I've used them at a rehearsal with a drummer, two guitarists and a keys player. I had the amp one third up and my bass half way. So much power on tap it's incredible! [/font][/color] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]Covered a variety of tunes from ZZTop, Black Crows, KOL, Queen, Stones through to KIllers, Petty, Clapton and more. Can't fault the sound, power or amazing ability oft these cabs to perform way beyond expectations.[/color][/font]
  21. I bought Steve's Demeter amp. Unfortunately it arrived in a less than perfect condition courtesy of an over-energetic courier! Despite Steve's superb packing the amp had a fault, which was, unfortunately, irreparable. Throughout Steve was great to deal with, made every effort to sort the problem quickly, went out of his way to get the courier issue resolved and made a swift refund. A genuinely great guy to deal with...next time, Steve
