  1. I'm not sure about the rosin yet, I had nymans and it was to hard to apply, then I got a free pot of pops with my Gedo and is a lot better but I sometimes get it just nice then I loose it again. French or German pattern you will need to decide on too, mine is French which appears more popular here and maybe in the USA I think where other countries tend to prefer German, most people will tell you to get what your teacher uses.
  2. I have a yita music one, they sell via Ebay, I was told they were good on here and when Jake Newman came to give me my first lesson he liked it so much he has since bought himself one, personally I think it must be faulty because it sounds terrible when I use it
  3. Sorry yes I meant my ClassicRay5 which has a fancy birdseye neck with a vintage tint and full gloss finish, the tobacco body is not so fancy but it is a one piece slab of ash (I think) with a top notch paint job, then it has a glossy pickguard rather than the matte of a normal Ray, all the extra chrome on the back with string thru body ferrules, battery box cover, engraved neck plate, bigger bridge and stuff overall it looks less like your average honest working mans bass.
  4. Just looking at others, the bongo looks ace with a roasted neck and trans finish!
  5. They are making some really nice gear now with the Classic, PDN and BFR stuff, they have found a bit of something special from somewhere! I felt that mine was a bit glitzy for a stingray at first but hey its my bass and like yours it looks and feels ace up close.
  6. Premier Dealer Network, very nice mate, very nice indeedy.
  7. Crazy! Love it. Does it have a bfr inlay on the 12th fret?
  8. John is the man, such a clever bloke, have you seen his circuit that fits in a p bass with no need for a battery and charges through the jack socket, simple yet genius! Did you go one or two band Roger, I have the 2 eq in my classic as it was missing something with the ebmm one or maybe even a faulty preamp as I got it in a trade.
  9. I fancy a white one for my classic to create a John deacon look a like five string
  10. That's a shame as it was a proper eightees case, nicks guitars bought it over from the states with another stingray inside but the buyer didn't want it.
  11. That's how the drums are anyway, just be like standing backwards for the whole gig really!
  12. Is it still in the vintage rectangular case?
  13. A drummer that could count then? even if it was for ill gotten gains
  14. It will be the EUB tomorrow, until my Schaller mag pickup arrives I just cant take the risk of messing for hours with feedback we are abouth 4th on tomorrow so it will be running late by then no doubt so no sound check probably.
  15. The 79 was handy for knocking in fence posts but it did sound great, I could and did play that 82 for hours on end at some function gigs, so comfy.
  16. Last night, not sure what I am doing with my legs, sort of robot dance I guess?

  17. Such a nice Stingray that 82, and light too, almost certainly a body made by charvel as it was shaped really nicely IMO and the book matched grain on the back etc, stonking bass
  18. [quote name='Old Horse Murphy' timestamp='1408804122' post='2533660'] Well blow me down! Dave must've moved it on rather quickly [/quote] You cant see it all in this pic but enough for Foxx and me to know its the same number [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/20130623_091818_zpsc3a83997.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130623_091818_zpsc3a83997.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  19. Here it is with the white... [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/20130623_092111_zpsf7b28a51.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130623_092111_zpsf7b28a51.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  20. The new ones on my Classic are moving around so I might have to try that, the ones on your 82 I presume are still the ones I made?
  21. [quote name='Foxx' timestamp='1408802937' post='2533636'] Hehe. I'll never part with either of mine now, I've finally found what for me is as near to bass perfection as it gets. [/quote] Thats what I said, now you have it!
