Hi Fisheth

Are you using the Steve Harris flats on it?

As they came stock, yes. I've not changed them, but I'm wanting another set of those like ASAP.

I might actually order some tomorrow!

What's the action like on it?

Could one of you gents with the Hammers bass, measure your nut please

A dispute needs fettling.

Fender say 41.3mm
I say cobblers, it's nearer 44.5mm

I would have loved to do this and settle the debate, but the bass doc has mine. The strap button is loose and is on the verge of coming out!

Good man

[christhammer666]

oh bugger now I want one even more.I never bothered because I heard the nut was 44+mm.

[bartelby]

Pretty sure the nut on my blue sparkly one is closer to 44mm then 41mm, so I guess most people assume the newer one will be the same

There's one on Facebook (in Doncaster) at £650 and it's been up a couple of weeks.
As much as I would love it, I still can't get round the boat anchor bit. One owner has clocked his at 12lb

They're heavy beasts!

I used to play a lot of 'tough' pubs in north London, you'd not get out after the gig (or even during) with a bass that had a Hammers logo on it!

[christhammer666]

im a leyton orient supporter so hate the west spam logo.still want one though

[Lozz196]

If it weren`t for the `ammers logo I`d have looked at one of these, but even though I like West Ham I`m an Arsenal man, so no can do.

The one that went on eBay recently for £600 was very local to me. I even inadvertently ended up chatting to the seller in a local music shop the day before the auction finished.

I would have snapped it up were it not for the Hammers badge. Why oh why did they not just put a transfer on it that could be easily removed??? 😡
