  1. i have a suitable step down transformer for this if anyone needs one, quite heavy though, probably about £20 posted
  2. aye, theres a bargain, and then theres plain wrong. there is no way in hell a fodera owner would sell their bass to crack converters for £40, sounds almost 100% stolen to me
  3. the status neck i have now on my stingray 5 was fitted to an OLP originally, so i imagine the 4 string would be the same, but you would have to modify the OLP body so that it has 6 bolts, as OLP's have 4 bolt necks. However if the graphite neck is undrilled, you can drill it to suit the OLP if you wish, although id reccommend you modify the body rather than the neck for value sake, if you need to sell the status neck in the future, itl be a limited market if you have drilled it for 4 bolts and not 6
  4. £300 i would say could be maxing it a bit, the condition is a bit rough can you just confirm, did you say that you got the fretboard repaired after the damaged caused by the wrong strings??
  5. going by this guy, id say anything that he prices so cheaply will be a hunk of junk, i wouldnt bother
  6. i dont like the sterling at all really, just sounds like something thats trying to be a stingray, and not quite getting it right. Plus i dont like thin necks or warped pickguards, so yeah no love from me sterling wise! its like the stingrays little sister bongo, however, seems to be the versitile beast that everyone should go for, iv still yet to try one, but then again iv never talked to a person who has had a bongo who hasnt said how versitile that preamp is
  7. thats almost a butterfly! good decision mate, shockingly low price, just aint worth selling it
  8. i like that first one almost as much as OutToPlayJazz's maple/graphite necked S2, gorgeous
  9. so it was il leave now... btw jobie, it definitly was not a stingray 4, or if it was, it would have been the 2 band eq model
  10. its either a stingray 5 or the Wal i think, thats what it was narrowed down to in another thread
  11. i shipped a bass to dublin with interparcel for about £15 using DPD i think
  12. [quote name='tempo' post='276625' date='Sep 3 2008, 11:55 PM']too much thinking and not enough playing does that[/quote] well unfortunatly, thats the opinion i have, id love to play one if i had the chance so i could see for myself, but i know nobody who has one and no guitar shops local to me stock them, so 'thinking' is all iv got to go on
  13. [quote name='MuseMatt' post='275885' date='Sep 2 2008, 10:59 PM']but you have always been different [/quote] hmm do i detect a guilty insult before the edit?
  14. nope! im sure my opinion could change if i do, but as it stands the name peavey just makes me think 'budget bass'
  15. titanium strings? what on earth do they sound like
  16. that metal one, cant remember the name, Toasted used to own one.... might have earth in the there somewhere
  17. if you wernt building me the little 1x8, id be very tempted by that 4x8...
  18. lol the title says £500, your post says £525, which is it to be?
  19. [quote name='Soliloquy' post='275840' date='Sep 2 2008, 10:08 PM']Thanks, it's a fine looking bass, very tempting !. Does anyone know if I'd have to pay import tax on bringing this into the UK ?.[/quote] isnt norway in the EU?? if so, you'l pay no import tax
  20. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='276210' date='Sep 3 2008, 12:59 PM']If the 4 bolt holes don't line up you'll encounter the same uncertainty as with a 6 bolt neck. If the neck heel is filled with solid MDF as I suspect it might be then its not going to be a big deal. Just get some wood filler or epoxy putty and fill the holes.[/quote] i dont think it is mdf, but anyways we need to stop speculating!! if anyone wants to know, give rob an email, he's a great guy BUMP, lets get this bass neck sold
  21. [quote name='bnt' post='276194' date='Sep 3 2008, 12:40 PM']- stereo jacks get used in guitars for two reasons: to carry two separate signals (rarely), [b]or to turn on the power to active electronics[/b] (much more common). If neither of those apply to you, then a mono jack is fine. If you have only a stereo jack to hand, wire up the tip and sleeve only, skip the ring (middle) contact. - you need only the controls that do the functions you're going to use - so if you use a volume pedal, and change tone through effects, then you could do without any in-bass controls at all. Sod's Law still applies, however...[/quote] ha, i didnt know thats what stereo jacks were for, makes sense really, learn something knew every day
  22. if your mp3 player isn't wma compatible, then thatl be the problem. anything windows media player syncs to a mp3 player is converted to wma first
