Now taking offers bump

[quote name='Chris2112' timestamp='1337237382' post='1657418'] I would change the preamp first mate, MEC's are pretty good pickups! Plus with a Tonepump bass you'll be used to effortless grunt from the bass preamp. Mind you, of all the NS basses I've played over the years (Spector and Warwick), my Ltd Edition 1990 Streamer is still the best of the lot. What a f***ing corker that bass is! [/quote] That was going to be my first port of call, i have a spare Tonepump which i intend to bastardize into the Warwick at somepoint. And for medical purposes i may post a few "how to" pics and a couple of before and after soundbytes.

I have 93 SS1 which has the older D profile neck, I find it an absolute joy to to play compared with younger Warwicks I have owned. Unfortunatly I can't vouch for the NS-2 neck but I would imagine its very much like that of the Euro model which is indeed more rounded. As for sound I tend to favour my Spectors, obviously the Euro's carry the Tonepump preamp and not the Hazlab like the NS-2. I play metal/ rock and the Spector just has that more oomph /bite which really cuts through the mix. The SS1- although a great sound is far more subdued and dare I say refined. Doesnt really give me that warm fuzzy feeling/confidence in a live situation. I may consider changing the MEC set up to that of the Spector. Or I may have a rush of blood to the head and offer it for trade against this LOL.

[quote name='dnarocks' timestamp='1337036725' post='1654565'] you have enough basses for an avalanche!! [/quote] Can never have too many basses!....

No worries mate, had a bit of interest and A few offers but nothing that floats my boat. May hang on to it for a rainy day.

Goodman yourself!... ...I take it you made the plunge on the 4lx Ben?!....

Trade option change.....MIA P bass or Stingrays preferred.

Bump.....

the anus bit!

It's not the first a new member has done this, i just think the chap needs a gentle introduction into the BC way of doing things! As far as i understand it, its bad form to move the goalposts once a price has been stated. And just for the record i did make an offer - only because i wanted to butcher the pups and pre amp...or should i say experiment with different set ups whilst keeping the one i already have original....or something like that!

[quote name='Bassulike66' timestamp='1335775574' post='1635647'] It might be a good idea if the seller does a first dibs list, after all he has posted this 3 times and members are mailing him via 2 of these post's as we speak.... Could get very confussing!! Anyway, i got my bid in at in at 7.16am.. [/quote] Wot i sed!!!...... I don't think ill be dirtying myself any further with these matters...ive got one anyway!

[quote name='dnarocks' timestamp='1335778402' post='1635708'] hi again. Is it alright to pop over and try the 5 string tonight, will you take paypal.! [/quote] Pm'd....

Bass weight coming out at 8lb. Your more than welcome to come and try it.....that's only if i can prise it from my sons hands of course!

Evil Undead..... The plum Euro was mine originally, I traded it against his black euro 5! I wish there was a cure for GAS!.... I originally weighed the bass on some crappy old bathroom scales. I'll look at it again with a veiw to using some better scales.

Incoming.
