  1. [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1451641458' post='2941935'] Right handed four string acoustic is back. [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_b_30_nt_acoustic_bassdeko.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...ic_bassdeko.htm[/url] [/quote] ... and gone; now showing Sold Out. But also On Request, from the Decorative Guitars and Basses page http://www.thomann.de/gb/decorative_guitars_and_basses.html So I don't know what's going on, as usual.
  2. Nice work. As someone said, they may not be very demonstrative, but I'm sure they were enthusiastic
  3. I think he has an exaggerated idea of the value of guitars
  4. [quote name='FinnDave' timestamp='1451590973' post='2941774'] Staying home tonight while my band is out gigging because I was given an impromptu flying lesson by a car driver while out on my bike a few weeks ago. Might have managed the gig from my wheelchair but not with my left arm in a cast from knuckles to above the elbow. [/quote] Painful! Best of luck with it. I suppose the bike is written off as well?
  5. I assume the bass is bolt-on? My amateurish start would be to remove and refit (not change) all the parts - bridge, neck, nut. It seems more likely than the wood, to me.
  6. [quote name='RustInPeace90' timestamp='1450920811' post='2937113'] Sorry to kinda resurrect an old thread but an old friend of mine had an Infinity fretless 5 string bass in natural hanging on his wall. I was over his on monday and he just gave it to me. Being a 4 string fretted bassist, 5 string, unlined fretless scared the hell out of me but this bass is really easy to play. I might give the pick ups an upgrade to something like some EMG HZs or whatever then use it on some of the slow parts for my bands album. Might have to be a cheat though and add side markers for the fret lines... [/quote] All info gratefully received! Sounds like a score, too
  7. [quote name='dudewheresmybass' timestamp='1450821256' post='2936271'] With this hunk o junk, you could play the kessel run in record time [/quote] ... or at least TIE with someone else
  8. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1450815141' post='2936176'] Not wishing to be negative or cast nasturtiums on your creative abilities, but I think it would probably save you a world of time and grief if you bought a used case and relined it to your specifications. [/quote] Ta! That was what I was going to do... I think I may have to give up on this thread, because it's obvious my OP didn't do what I wanted it to.
  9. Could I be on the list please? Probably a somewhat vain hope but you never know
  10. That adds new fear to the phrase "multiple loggins", which I see often as part of my work...
  11. How are decisions made? What are we trying to do? Who does the arrangements? Do I have to sing?
  12. [quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1450725423' post='2935292'] Yup, it comes with age and that's why I like nickel. If you want sparkly try cleaning them gently with Duraglit - follow the instructions on the tin. Do not rub hard as the Duraglit is abrasive and may rub off the nickel plating. [/quote] If I understand correctly, jewellers' rouge will do the same thing, but rather more gently. Where you get it, and how much it costs, I don't know.
  13. [quote name='colgraff' timestamp='1450692983' post='2934850'] Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. [/quote] Open the pod bay door, Col.
  14. If you were looking to sell bass things, this is at least as good as anywhere else... Welcome!
