  1. There was a set of pick ups on eBay recently - quick look but can't find them...
  2. Mesa Boogie amps??? What's an amp??? I've still got square wheels on my car...
  3. I played with a drummer for a while who complained incessantly about the members of his previous band. His timing was often off and he struggled with new rhythms, roles and fills. He eventually left the project and went back to his old band (who probably tolerated him)
  4. I picked up a NE-1 pre-amp last week but haven't had a chance to use it (puppy!!). Hope that it's as good as it's reputed to be.
  5. Bumped into some friends today who saw them this weekend. Video confirms MK back on the Jaydees.
  6. Your Psychic abilities are amazing....how many fingers am I holding up?
  7. I like the look of this - looks to be quality parts too. Proceeds go to Shelter who I worked for on two occasions covering 10 years. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165167763548?hash=item2674c4105c:g:Lo8AAOSw68VhhDAd
  8. SB1200?? Anybody know anything about these?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294484710672?hash=item4490a81510:g:P6cAAOSwArxhcnAG
  9. I had one in black - great bass for the money - really well built, nice balance, good satin neck finish - for the money it was a steal.
  10. You can get one in good condition for around £100 so probably not cost effective. Ridiculous really.
  11. I had one for a while but didn't gel with it. IIRC I managed to get a case from Steven Chowny.
  12. Sold for £220 which is a good price considering what you get for your money.
  13. Ah, all becomes clear. I didn't relate "burly" to the effect - more that it was a chunky design.
  14. REALLY like that!!! It's going to look amazing - jealous doesn't even cover it!!!
  15. Don't know if they are interchangeable (don't see why not) but Yamaha sent me some TR nuts with longer thread so that there is more adjustment. I would donate the spare to the project but I have no idea where I put it - in "a safe place" obviously.
  16. IMO There are times when you can't get a fair price for a good item. I'd rather keep hold of something I don't need than sell it for less than I think it's worth. Leave it in it's case, forget about it for a while and wait for a time when would be buyers are a bit more flush.
  17. Not sure about "the best" but I'm very happy with my Yamaha TRB 5iiF especially in combination with my NE -1 Parametric equalizer Pre-amp.
  18. I'm a tapewound convert too...a warmer tone and softer feel make playing an absolute joy.
  19. If they have a great vocalist - "Loving you (is easy cos you're beautiful)".
  20. I'll have a tenners worth of whatever you're smoking...😄
  21. or just check the Funk & Groove thread for inspiration. Warning: Watching any of @bubinga5's videos will generally cost you money - CDs from his recommendations. 😉😉
