  1. I sold Andy my Westone Thunder. Patient and generally a nice guy, I'd happily deal with him again.
  2. I was thinking more of whether it was really crackly. Different
  3. Never liked the Devil, it looks abominably uncomfortable to play and looks as if it was designed for Kiss. (Maybe it was, I dunno.) The AUB is better, but the string fastening thingy is awful.
  4. Do I remember that you can delete bad feedback?
  5. Makes an audible difference, yes, possibly. But does it make it better?
  6. That's not going to work and it's also a blatant violation of professional ethics. For god's sake, man, offer him a cup of tea!
  7. Never knew those existed. I'm off to Amazon! Thanks
  8. Nice work. I do like the Tele headstock, and this looks way better than it should to someone who doesn't like sunburst
  9. Not a fan of bursts of any colour. Having said which, I had a nice cheap tobaccoburst J-alike which I'd have kept if I could abide the neck (weird almost triangular cross-section), and I have a matched pair of fretted and fretless Peavey Foundations in TSB, and I will buy an Ibanez SRF705 some day... And I rather like reverse bursts, preferably grey-white. So, I conclude I am probably not even playing the right instrument. :wanders off looking for Bassoonchat:
  10. I have a Hohner B Bass B, which appears to be the J-J equivalent of this. I've been meaning to sell it, I'll get some pics up.
  11. Thanks gents. It's fretless, so I'm reasonably confident in ruling out fret rattle I'll have a tweak of the TR and a careful listen to the tuners.
  12. I have a Yamaha BB400F which has a rattle when played unamplified. I believe (from the sound and feel) this is probably the truss rod. How worried should I be, and is it fixable? Thanks
  13. Got a bit of an Affirma vibe there.
  14. The list has been stable for a while; 7-8 items including a single bass (5-string fretless). Yesterday there were 26 up, for about 5 minutes..
  15. If you're using a webbing strap, run a couple of stitches through it where it doubles. That stops it changing length unexpectedly.
  16. I like that as well. I think it's that can-opener shape, somehow. Just as well it's got too many strings for me!
  17. Some of them might not work? I've heard varying reports; some are near perfect, others not so much.
