Strings cost more than the bass

[TheGreek]

Tuning must be a nightmare, changing the strings a weekend's work.

I’d actually really like a Mobius. Poor man’s Chapman Stick maybe, but on my watch list now. Thanks 

He’s got a couple of nice instruments for sale.

The Megatar is an instrument with a purpose. Must start learning how to play mine. The 15-string is potentially useful but would need thinking about the tuning - bottom 8 strings the same as a 6-string but extended by one string in either direction (low F#, top F), and the top 7 strings as a 7-string guitar.

What's this "changing strings" of which you speak?

I've never heard such nonsense!

I put new flats on all my basses, I think it was 1981😁

£250. Blimey. I was tempted to put a comedy bid on but that's in the realm of tragedy.

That Mobius looks like a steal. Had one before, wouldn't mind another if funds permitted.

They both remind me that i really must get some ironing done

So who nabbed the Mobius in the end?

£469 is dirt cheap for a Mobius. Retail on that would be near $2000.
