  1. New to me, though it does stir an old memory I can't pin down. The bridge/tuner arrangement is very Kramer The Duke(/Hondo Alien). (The serial number doesn't follow the Kramer patterns I know of, but I'm not well-informed.) Where is it, and how much is the asking price?
  2. [quote name='kodiakblair' timestamp='1431539256' post='2772411'] AT thanks for the heads up. I thought that one was over in the US. Tell you what that is a fantastic low price for one. I think I paid £250 for mine from a car parts dealer in the States.If anyone is interested in the T-20 I'd recommend you buy it quick. They don't come up too often over here. [/quote] If I had any money...
  3. Too many basses, and bills to pay... Good luck with your sale
  4. [quote name='Ktmman' timestamp='1431459218' post='2771630'] Looks a bit like a weather map of England minus Wales and Scotland [/quote] UKIP bass
  5. Nice If I was playing fives, I'd definitely be interested - I've a four-string Fury and it's a [i]monster[/i].
  6. Nope. I live on my own though.
  7. Simply Red. Dr Hook. "Novelty" "comedy" songs by people like Jasper Carrott.
  8. Seventy-seven quid for a clip-on tuner?! Heel be lucky.
  9. [quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1430912958' post='2765820'] And it backfires if I (as any sensible person would) put "-fender" into my search to exclude all Fenders. [/quote] This.
  10. I wouldn't go near anyone with that.
  11. Sing? Almost everyone can learn to sing, or so they tell me.
  12. [quote name='PlungerModerno' timestamp='1430797780' post='2764624'] It should be . . . Your favourite Colour! But if it doesn't suit, or you don't really have a favourite . . . Here's some linkages: [/quote] Thanks for the pics, excellent idea These two are closest to the body colour.
  13. [quote name='inate_hex' timestamp='1430790308' post='2764617'] What is the fretboard wood? [/quote] Rosewood.
  14. I have a P-ish body which is Shoreline Gold (or close to it). It will have a J-width neck and P-J Bartolinis, and I think it needs a scratchplate. What colour should the plate be?
  15. [quote name='FelixGubbins' timestamp='1430726922' post='2763942'] It's only meant to be a 10 string bass looking at the bridge. Is he havin a laff? [/quote] But you get 50% extra, free! What's not to like?
  16. Tempting, but I really can't justify it...
  17. I looked at the fourth pic and couldn't work out what that knob half way down the neck was GLWTS!
  18. Is it surprisingly cheap?
  19. [quote name='Coldflows' timestamp='1430589249' post='2762950'] What's the best way to remove a totally wrecked bridge saddle pin? I found some matching replacements but I need to get the rusted ones out first! [/quote] I would: 1 - Take it off the bass. 2 - Soak it in penetrating oil for a day. 3 - Use pliers to turn the pin, if you can get any purchase. Failing that, use a Dremel or similar to cut a slot in the pin end, so that you can get purchase on it with a screwdriver. Heat or cold might also be useful in freeing the pin. Cold is probably less risky - put it in the freezer overnight.
  20. [quote name='fingers211' timestamp='1430419867' post='2761323'] Not the sort of music I'd normally listen to......but; great arrangment , superbly executed, and the overall sound is top notch....enjoyed it and well impressed !! [/quote] This
  21. Nice I don't usually like the G+L headstock, but this seems to carry it off somehow.
  22. I don't think you have. I do think that people like to see a description written by the seller - basses are personal, and not writing it yourself somehow implies you didn't love it. And some people just won't click the link, especially after the "tasty mods" comment in the title. Just my opinion, obviously It's pretty, and the mods do seem impressive. I have too many basses and I'm skint, otherwise I'd have it myself. GLWTS
  23. I may be doing the same... yesterday my Farida FJB-6 had to compete with a Yamaha with a P pup. And a bigger amp. Hmmm.
