JwK94 Posted July 24, 2014 Share 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).

Painy Posted July 25, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodster Posted July 25, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Rock Posted July 25, 2014 Share 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.

CamdenRob Posted July 25, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 bet they are damn heavy though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JwK94 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 May end up buying one then! Woodster how much did shipping and import tax come to on yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 There was a guy selling one the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JwK94 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah I think that was a seven string, perhaps a couple too many for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambient Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I found quite a few threads on talkbass about them when I was considering them. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AttitudeCastle Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I have to keep avoiding these, giving me major 7 string GAS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodster Posted July 27, 2014 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
