One Oliv G string and one Oliv D string these have had 3 months of use and they are in excellent condition. the other Oliv D has had similarly brief use, but not by me: I bought it from a fellow bass player whom I trust. You can differentiate this D string from the other as it has a tiny...

Replied

Yep

The original Headway EDB-1 two channel preamp, the famously billed “Swiss army knife” of live bass performance (or any acoustic instrument). Comes with original box, manual and 18v U.K. plug which may or may not be the original one. U.K. postage is free. International postage will be quoted on...

£10 discount- now £110, which I hope you’ll agree is a very good price for pretty young Evah Weichs.

Full set of Pirastro Evah Weichs used on one bass only as follows: - E around 3 months old - A around 5-6 months - D and G couple of months tops. Best price for a new set is £189 from Thomann. I no longer have the paper sleeves but I’ll post them protected in a nice padded envelope or...

Non ne ho la più pallida idea capo, sorry… The packet doesn’t say and comparing it with the strings in my strings drawer, it is slightly bigger than a Spiro S42 E. Sorry that’s not an empirically sound measurement but it’s the best I can do with the tech at my disposal… Se vuoi provarla ti...

£80 includes postage, but if you live very far away from the U.K., it may take a while these days… Bought on this forum, just a few threads south you will see the original post, however by the time it entered the U.K., I had by sheer luck found a set of strings that suit my bass...

Made in Italy! Fantastic lightweight and professional bass combo. Loved by some of the most wonderful player out there. “Born” in 2013 but it has had very little use and when gigged, it was respectfully done, so it has no issues, no crackles, all fully working. Does not have a cover. I will...

I’m guessing the Oliv diameter may be a little thin without the wrapping…I’m sure it’ quality gut underneath, just don’t know how usable in a playing situation.

To my ears and fingers, when I needed guts, I liked them to be raw guts on the D and G. Out of them all, I loved the Gamut mediums I played for the longest. Currently, all the work I am doing, and my bass, seem to quite like the presence of steels, so I play S42s, and I’m happy with my old Spiro...

I shall take this one, thank you.

This is a magnificent opportunity for the gut lover: a new set of Chordas costs £553 in the U.K., and the Carlos Henriquez model are special order. these are 2 weeks old, hence better than new, because I stretched them for you. Here’s their story: I bought them from Germany, which meant I had...
