I’ve said it before on similar threads but I’ll say it again...

You will not find a better bass for this money! Excellent instruments.

Ah, my old bass, which I really regretted moving on!!

So much so, in fact, that I've gone and got another BB425 to replace it...

GLWTS - whoever buys this will be in for a treat.

Andy??....Andy??...where is @AndyTravis???

Wouldn't be surprised if he's outside the seller's house as we speak..😂😂

Which Darkglass pedal are you looking to get? You might find someone willing to trade.

[Swaff]

Currently after an Alpha Omega but would also consider any of the ones with a 4 band EQ.

I'm definitely open to trades on it!

Nah, lovely thing - I’m waiting for a 414wr after the last 2 I’ve got close to have been none starters 🙄

For the record, the punch of the P pups on this BB425 pretty much floors any other bass neck pup I've played before or since. 

I remember Tom's grin very vividly when we met up to do a bass swap and he played it for the first time

😂 As do I! If I didn't need the money/Darkglass glory then she would definitely be staying!

Haha be warned: this particular bass comes with a large dose of seller's regret!

What an odd bridge!  What's the string spacing please?

I have to say, it makes for an excellent B string tension!

I believe it's 18mm, however I can have a measure after work to double check.

It's to give the B extra heft 👍

I'm hoping that this is still here when I sell my Geddy jazz. These are really good basses

[Swaff]

Alpha Omega now purchased so this is now cash only to replace the void in my savings! 

[dannybuoy]

At least this will allow you to try the BB with the Alpha Omega, they sound great together!

[Swaff]

Ah no don't say that! I have to offset the expenditure 😂

[Swaff]

I've now recouped the funds I spent, so trades are now considered!

[moley6knipe]

I have absolutely no need for a Yammy 5... so have PM’d. Will collect, only 45 min drive away....
