Here's a review of the stomp plus a picture: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/reviews/showproduct.php/product/734"]http://www.talkbass....php/product/734[/url] The Stomp has only been used occasionally and only then in my home studio. There are some great sounds and a very accurate tuner. It's a robust unit, built to last. It comes complete with the original box and manual, power supply and various leads.

Owing to a rather interesting delivery from the mailman, I'm now open to offers on this lovely bass. Please be serious when making an offer, you can see the kind of figure I'm looking for but am willing to consider your offer to ensure that this bass finds a loving home and receives regular caresses ;o)))

Up for grabs is my Goodfellow Player Lined Fretless. It's an early example of Bernie's craftmanship - number 068. The bass was bought from new and was originally a fretted bass which I had defretted by an expert luthier using maple liners. The bass is a beautiful example of birds eye maple with wooden tuning pegs, gold hardware and those lovely wood covered pickups with thumb indent. The bass is strung with half flats and the tonal palette is awesome. You can get that typical fretless sigh through to some window pane rattling highs. The bass comes with the original Goodfellow embossed case, certificate of authenticity and all the patina associated with a well loved quality instrument. There are a couple of very tiny chips to the body and an equally tiny one on the headstock. You can't see them from a few inches away and they certainly do not detract from the look and sound of this gorgeous bass. I'm only considering selling as I need to raise some funds at the moment. I'm looking for [b]£650[/b], which I think is a bargain price for this quality bass.

[quote name='edstraker123' post='1122295' date='Feb 10 2011, 07:56 AM']If it is the stock bass I tried to buy this one from Jon just before Christmas only for him to tell me he'd sold it the day before. I was absolutely gutted as it is a work of art. Can't believe you are selling it so soon ![/quote] Needs must I'm afraid. This is the one from the site with a few added tweaks/mods to my requirements. The Hiscox ABS case was bought brand new at the same time and the asking price is only what I eventually paid. I'll give the bass a couple of days and then clear out the attic, put it all on the bay and see if I can keep hold of the Shuker ;o)

[quote name='KERMITNT' post='1121205' date='Feb 9 2011, 11:59 AM']wow whats the weight of this beauty ??????[/quote] Weight-wise (I have an aversion to scales as they have a tendency to lie about my weight), the Shuker is much lighter than my Sei 4 NT and my Goodfellow Player. It's also about half the weight of a Thumb 4 NT! I'd be guessing but it must be around the 8lb mark.

Just a tentative feeler at the moment but I need to consider selling my very recent purchase of this piece of Shuker loveliness. The bass hasn't left the house since it arrived and has only been played a couple of times. The spec is: Shuker 4 string horn bass 33"scale 24tret maple and wenge laminated neck rosewood f/board two way trussrod carbon fibre reinforced neck 2mm white side dots simulated mother of pearl block markers buckeye burr headstock veneer gotoh gb7O7 tuners satin neck lacquer medium fretwire swamp ash body buckeye burr drop top polyester basecoat satin top coat individual bridge units Delano JCAL& MCAL pickups Seymour Duncan 3 band e q Graphite black hardware nutwidth- 41mm 12th fret width-56mm – depth of neck at 1st fret 20.1mm depth of neck at 12th fret- 21.8mm 16"radius As you can see it's a beautiful piece of craftmanship. I'm only looking for the price I paid, which is [size=2][b]£925[/b][/size]. This includes the case, which was bought new with the bass. [attachment=71684:IMG_0154.JPG] [attachment=71685:IMG_0155.JPG] If circumstances change I might be interested in a trade...
