  1. Hey I'd like to try it as well if possible please, by the way it's an ace idea and all in a good community spirit, nice one Chris
  2. mmm, tried a fair few in my time and have now settled for 2 thumb BO 5 broadnecks. I sold 2 jazzes and 2 P basses in the process and thought they were all keepers, a bit odd but tastes do change I suppose. I used to have a thumb nt5 that was a work of art (IMO) but the fit wasn't that good for me. The BO basses fit me that bit better and while they don't sound quite as 'thick' as the NT (they both have soapbars rather than single coils) they are probably a little bit more versatile. I've also realised now that I much prefer 5 stringers with a wide string spacing so if I do get another wick it'll be broadnecked for sure!!
  3. Top notch stuff
  4. Just received a Radial pedal from Andy, really easy transaction, great comms, well packaged and sent quickly. Would not hesitate to deal with again, cheers .
  5. Hi Stompbox, I've given a couple away today but they're still about 50 or so left! You are indeed correct in that after reading bass mags for a while they do repeat themselves somewhat . If I still have them you're more than welcome to them. Cheers.
  6. I've just sold a bass to Chris who trekked up to West Yorkshire from Birmingham on the train! Easy transaction, great comms and a nice guy to top it all off, would not hesitate to deal with again .
  7. [quote name='grunge666' timestamp='1374013151' post='2144335'] I saw this last week and posted it on my FB wall - thought it was brill. I'd have a go at something like this but, know it'd end up sounding like I'd dropped the bass down a flight of stairs! [/quote] Lol!!!
  8. .... now that [b][i]is [/i][/b]cheap for a decent combo type bump !
  9. Really nice neck/body area, I was expecting to see a bolt on jobbie (err, didn't read the spec first!!)
  10. [i][b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Now on HOLD for the time being, cheers for any interest so far [/font][/color][/b][/i] Hi folks, I've got an assortment of bass magazines that peeps can have for a reasonable donation to BC (erm, I'm not expecting the above amount though ) and you're welcome to collect from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. I'd also much prefer them to go as a job lot and would rather not post thanks.

  11. [quote name='marcus bell' timestamp='1378838287' post='2205422'] I've had one and it was the best p I've ever played good luck with the sale dude [/quote] Yeah you did Marcus , it was this very one I traded with Steve (along with lots of bits and pieces !) for one of his many Overwaters.
  12. +1 on the build quality of Overwaters, really not notch stuff IMO
  13. Top stuff, thanks for taking the time to show us the progress of your build.
  14. bump for a nice bass , if I hadn't settled on two I'd be sniffing [size=4] [/size][size=4]![/size]
  15. [size=4]Yeah it was a long shot but worked out well . I'd only seen one broadneck thumb before and that was a fretted one. [/size][size=4]I'd never seen a fretless version so it was a blessing to get it. It's pretty rare I'm sure and I'll try and use it tastefully.[/size] [size=4]I doubt I'll be getting much gas any time soon but if I do you'll know ![/size]
  16. mmm, well I think the best bass specific shop is the 'For Sale' section on this very forum , and yes, I've used it lots and lots!!
  17. Well I thought I'd never get a pair of these, however it has been done thankfully. Something about them suits me well so hopefully I'll stop jumping on and off the BC roundabout, well at least for a while : [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/thumbandstand003_zpsef798333.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/thumbandstand004_zpsb1d8d3d7.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/thumbandstand005_zps33644288.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/thumbandstand007_zpsc4e33044.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1286.photobucket.com/user/jimbobothy/media/thumbandstand006_zpsf3b09274.jpg.html"][/url] I knew that you could get a broadnecked BO 5 thumb, however I'd only ever seen a few of the fretted ones, let alone a fretless! A nice guy from Denmark sold me the fretless to make the pair, just need to practice that bit more now !
