    I don't usually like 'bursts much, but that looks lovely. It's a shame I don't get on with the deeper body. GLWYS!

    I bought Joel's bass uke. All went nicely (he even agreed to post it), and here is happy feedback to prove it. Thanks Joel

    Good thought, but not an option, for reasons too complicated to explain. Thanks.

    I have four sets of short-scale (30" scale, 760mm) roundwounds, bought second-hand a decade ago when I had something which probably fitted them - I never got round to it. The Rotosounds, the La Bellas and the Newtones appear to be stainless steel. The Optima Golds are, um, gold? I don't know what the actual metal is. They've all been opened; the Rotosounds and the Newtones have never been fitted; the La Bellas have been partly fitted (2 never fitted); the Optima Golds are cut 2+2 and there is some wear to the silks. I have little idea how to price these so my preference is to sell them as a job lot. £75 for the lot, posted, within the UK (outside the UK, let me know but probably there would be tariffs). PayPal without charges (preferred), or bank transfer.

    Kiddie trailer is the method I've arrived at after the helpful comments above. It's not that far indeed. I'm not in a position to do it at the moment (shoulder issues and recovering from a fairly major op), but by the time I've sorted the bike etc. out it should be OK. We'll see.

    I've wanted one of these for ages, didn't buy one when they were available easily, and can't justify it now this one's come up. Bah! GLWYS!

    bell emulation

    Free form. Live play will follow, probably.

    Seldom wise, on a pushbike.

    Given it's less than two miles, I'm not hugely worried. But yes, point taken.

    bell emulation

    alyctes replied to alyctes's topic in Effects

    A church bell or hand bell. Something a bit less cracked than the Black Sabbath bell, but that sort of bell.

    Good thought, but no, sadly.

    Boot polish.
  13. alyctes
    Potentially. This occurred to me while allegedly sleeping last night. It ought to be reasonably waterproof, as well, which can't hurt.
  14. alyctes
    This is what I was wondering. Thanks

    At the moment I drive about 2 miles to our practice space. I can't leave anything there overnight. I'm wondering about getting there by bike instead. The practice amp is a small combo. Does anyone else do this? If so, how?

    bell emulation

    alyctes posted a topic in Effects

    Can anyone suggest an effect which would simulate a bell? Does it need a synth and/or sample, or is there something I could buy off the shelf? Thanks

    Mm. Tempting, not least because I have a relative who might be interested (she's 4'11" with small hands).
  18. alyctes
    It's almost tempting to buy the thing just to see how dreadful the joint actually is. Almost.
  19. alyctes
    Have a look at the neck joint. Someone had ideas above their capability, pretty clearly. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116105481400?itmmeta=01HV9XPQQB16YMM405XW7SDKMH&hash=item1b086d0cb8:g:rDUAAOSwHhll6HDa

    Do make sure the cat doesn't want to bid ... GLWYS
  21. alyctes
    The ebay seller, please. I would very much not like to deal with them. (FWIW, everyone here knows you're a sound bloke )
  22. alyctes
    Is it possible to name the seller?
  23. alyctes
    Glad to hear it
  24. alyctes
    Bought a body, bits and pups for a JB from Mike. Very quick, expertly packaged, good comms. I'd be pleased to deal with him again. Thanks Mike
