  1. Where are you based?
  2. What's the scale length? n00b question, I guess, but I've never looked at a 3/4 before.
  3. Three Doors Down, 'Kryptonite' a bit of a brooder but it works for me
  4. I bought the two Tusq nuts. Good deal, very clean and fast.
  5. Bought a couple of Tusq nuts from Chris. All as advertised, good packaging, good comms, and very quick. A pleasure doing business with him.
  6. My dad was a double bass player; he talked to me about 5-string DB, some time around 1976. I'm fairly sure he was talking about an add-on, rather than a purpose-built 5, though.

    Bought a Westone Rail from him. All as advertised (and what a great little beast it is ), excellent packing and a PM describing how to open it with no risk to the contents. There was a delay in delivery, and he sent a very clear and informative PM apologising and explaining what had happened. A good experience
  8. Bought an Encore Strat neck and jack from chrispy108. Good deal, all very quick and simple. Prompt delivery, well packaged (in an old Guitar Hero box ).
  9. I bought a piezo pickup from Mike. Good comms, all as advertised, well packaged, and very very quick - PM late Saturday, arrived Tuesday lunchtime! Excellent deal - thanks!
  10. And very nice it is, in a slightly daft sort of way. Cheers
  11. [quote name='Darshan' post='1146642' date='Mar 2 2011, 12:42 AM']Interested in trading for a Loop Station RC20?[/quote] I bought it in early January.
  12. I bought a Fishman preamp from him. All as advertised, good communication, prompt dispatch and really excellent packaging.
  13. Snakefarm's reading of 'St James Infirmary' is worth a look (not to everyone's taste, but there you go). [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuzrgu55lkA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuzrgu55lkA[/url]
  14. Hi I'll take the pickup. PM on its way. Cheers Mike
  15. What's actually missing from the Yamaha? I might have the whole thing in bits
  16. Thomann have been prompt and efficient when I've ordered from them (twice). I do get junk mail from them, about every 3 months. Parcelforce: usual thing, it depends on the person (IMO a symptom of bad management). The guy who delivers to my workplace is excellent. The guy who delivers to my home, not so much (but not completely useless, to give him his due).
  17. Great project! And, bookmarked for future reference
  18. Nice
  19. Anybody know anything about this beastie? I haven't been able to find anything online. My suspicion is it's well overpriced (seller originally wanted £450, now down to £320), but for all I know it might be the find of the year. It's quite pretty.

  20. Damn, I like that... Cellist at heart, me. I just can't justify spending the money :/
  21. [u]Nice[/u] headstock. The whole bass looks nice, but that is very pretty.
  22. [quote name='Bloodaxe' post='1123410' date='Feb 10 2011, 11:38 PM']I went for 'Disco' at first, but then settled for 'whatever sub-genre you'd pigeonhole Blondie & The Eurythmics in'. ...[/quote] Duran-funk?
  23. Um, how much is "light"? And, any chance of some pics?
