JwK94 Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 Just come across [url="http://www.bassmods.com/Bass-Mods-Bass-Guitars_c_1.html"]these[/url] while having the standard GAS attack. Anyone ever tried or seen one of these in the flesh? Specs look great and pretty good value for money once you convert the price (Of course have to factor in shipping and import tax but still potentially a good deal). Quote
Painy Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Check the '6 string advice' thread a few threads down from here. Woodster's post. He seems very keen on his K6! Personally I have major GAS for one of these myself - just lacking the funds right now Quote
woodster Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Yep, I have a K6 and I love it. Mine was plek'd before it shipped and so it plays like butter and has a fantastic range of tones. Amazing instrument for the money. Quote

Roland Rock Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) I think that one of the Basschat volunteers, who is a big fan of The Jam, has one of these, but replaced the stock pickups. Just do a search for " Modded Mod Mod's Bass Mods" Edited July 25, 2014 by Roland Rock Quote
CamdenRob Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) I quite fancy one of these.... Maybe we could order a few at a discount. I'd be happy with the Red or the Black sixer. Edited July 25, 2014 by CamdenRob Quote
JwK94 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Posted July 25, 2014 May end up buying one then! Woodster how much did shipping and import tax come to on yours? Quote
JwK94 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah I think that was a seven string, perhaps a couple too many for me... Quote

ambient Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 I found quite a few threads on talkbass about them when I was considering them. 😊 Quote
AttitudeCastle Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 I have to keep avoiding these, giving me major 7 string GAS! Quote
woodster Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 The import duty in a bass is currently 3.7% and VAT 20% so I think it was about £140 in total. Even after I bought a case for shipping AND the shipping and charges, the K6 came in around £700. Quote
