    I'll need to go find that - I think I missed the first one. It's a good neck, but by the time you keep that you may as well keep the tuners.... and the bridge - and you end up, what selling the pickups and the body I made myself so it's not got any real value and then I've got parts for my next build... sometime in the future?

    that was what I was thinking too...

    Mesa style leather corners cut, decision time - tan or turquoise colour on the dark blue paint (photos taken in appalling light)

    I’m up to two - it sometimes is lifting to much paint off with it - dabbing it on again with a bunch of scrunched up sheet is working quite well.

    In a slightly unplanned development I seem to have acquired my first ever five string this weekend!

      I've been asked before, Herr Kommissar.

      Love this song, took me some time to understand the Austrian German used, but love it.

    Yes, it’s all pretty good stuff on it, and the neck is USA music man

    You’ll still be the bass player, so it’s not going to get you laid

    A Mike Walsh special!

    So question time... if I were really talented, like a Yorkshire based Jens Ritter, and had built a bass I would have a queue of people wanting to buy it... If had bolted together an P neck, a P body and made a bitsa P bass or other fender bass- I’ve seen them advertised, and people will buy them... What if you’ve made something a bit less generic, but not to a pro level? Will people want them, or is it better to split the bass and part it out?

    Half way though trying the tuff cab leather effect. Undecided if it’s going to look any good in the end

    So I’ve got a new bass incoming next week so it might change ... This was the year that a Sadowsky jazz supplanted all my other basses, but I actually traded that last year. Best this year was my HX Stomp - what a step up from the Zoom B3n that is- fits with what I’m doing perfectly and just sounds good. I don’t use half the features but still! worst... I don’t really have one, I won a set of chromes at the Midlands bass bash - get to try flats - jury is still out if I like them or not

    Typical Al - focusing on knobs!

    aye up lad from Farsley

    that sounds like a traumatic bass buying situation

    You could just do it in the global... and if you want to save blocks any cab block will have one on

    that looks amazing! I was swithering between doing green and matching my Walkabout cab or trying something else... Influenced by your suitcases too... you could go for leather corners?!

    cos someone might have brought an active 5 string!

    Penny dropped.... I was wondering how it was that the FX worked for you and why Line6 would release the HX FX and the HX Stomp... then realised- guitarists would need the amp modelling way more than bass players would!

    Bit like one bass cab or another sat in the backline supporting the PA

    @warwickhunt was selling one not so long ago up in your bit of the world. I tried it, it was nice but I didn't know what the switches were doing

    I wonder how a early G&L L1000 like mine would have gone down...
  22. LukeFRC
    ah you had to spoil the fun!
  23. LukeFRC
    Bet the stingray felt a bit left out!

    so guessing the price of the aforementioned Berg HG310 you would need to have quite a big band before IEM got more expensive

    always the way- shop is judged on shifting new units of stuff, take PX in and secondhand to help that happen - but will price it to sell as the cash flow is more important than the potential value of the item... someone else thinks it's underpriced they buy it and try to sell it for more, because likely for them the potential value of the item is more important than the cashflow.
