MythSte Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) Well at least my hobby dosnt involve crack eh? Anyway, this is the 55-01 mikeh was selling a few weeks ago. I like it, i really do! But i dont care much for the 35inch scale , and im only selling so i can get a bass im as happy with as i am my amp [list] [*]Bartollini MK 1 pickups and 3 band pre [*]hipshot ultralite tuners [*]cherry burst on flamed maple [*]push/pull passive pot [*]string through body [/list] Real joy to play, actions as low as you like and yeah! Cool beans. I'd like what i paid for it back, which is £450 - Prefere pickup or meet but im sure we can arrange postage if the former is not possible. Second up, we have a yamaha BB605. Now its former owner does have first dibs on this but i'll register any interest while he gets back to me. [list] [*]Acclaimed NE-1 semi parametric EQ [*]standard two way EQ aswell [*]Nathen East body shape [*]gold hardware [*]nice chunky bridge [/list] Im looking for £250 for this, again collection or meet preferred, but i can sort postage if need be. Thanks for looking! Edited February 11, 2008 by ste_m3

Thunder Fingers Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Your intrested in trading any of them for a 6er? The lakie is whats closest in value.. it is worth around 450 or so..
Thunder Fingers Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) Oh well.. I understand. (How about the Yammie? ) Edited February 11, 2008 by Thunder Fingers
dub_junkie Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 I like the scale length on the 55-01 but whats the string spacing at the bridge?
mikeh Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 That Lakland is a stunner, if it was a 4 I'd buy it back in a flash. The 'Quilt' Maple top really glows under stage lighting.
MythSte Posted February 11, 2008 Author Posted February 11, 2008 Yeah, your quite right! I dont at all regret buying this mike, but now im so happy with my amp id like that same feeling from my basses! and i know what i need to do... [i]Walks off into the sunset...[/i]

You really did me a favour. It's an awesome bass
MythSte Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 [quote name='Mike' post='145090' date='Feb 22 2008, 02:44 PM']Are there pictures of the Yamaha?[/quote] Im afraid theyve both sold, but there where pictures in the first post if you want to know what youve missed out on! And bassbunny i cant wait to try it out! im now the proud owner of a HS5 bongo and im interested to see if i made the right desicion!
