BT! Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 I just got a black SB14 and im amazed just how good they are. Have a bump
johnDeereJack Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Aaargh! It's gorgeous and want it but why do people insist on putting things I want up for sale when I don't have the funds? It's dreadfully inconsiderate! Have a bump on me anyway!
BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 Well glad to hear that you're tempted at least. I've just been talking with 'Jennifer' who, it has transpired, is a dodgy spam robot who haunts Gumtree.com, your guys' feedback is a little more encouraging!
BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 29, 2012 Author Posted August 29, 2012 S'gotta go price crash bump...now £330 (I bought it new for £575!!)
Paul S Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Here is a review by the Bass Whisperer. He seems keen. [url="http://youtu.be/67Fo7AKwfA0"]http://youtu.be/67Fo7AKwfA0[/url] It was enough to make me get one - huge range of tones from the pup/3-band eq and exceedingly playable. £330 is just stupidly cheap.
BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 29, 2012 Author Posted August 29, 2012 Others feel free to chip in, but in my experience they share the same thin neck profile, chuggy sound, same sorta electronic set-up and body construction - I believe US parts but constructed in Indonesia (?). If you were paying a grand more for a US Sterling I'm sure you'd notice a difference! Owning a Musicman made instrument - having that 3/1 headstock near my left hand - is pretty awesome. And Ed the Bass Whisperer likes it...
BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 29, 2012 Author Posted August 29, 2012 I remember! Well at least it'll have a friend in its new house. Case yes too
BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 29, 2012 Author Posted August 29, 2012 Sold. But my bargain Aria is not - http://basschat.co.uk/topic/184671-aria-igb-68-hardcase-l195-price-drop/page__fromsearch__1 That'll be £175 tomorrow, also has to go
