  1. [quote name='rOB' timestamp='1352753644' post='1867102'] What if s/he is a lefty...? [/quote] That's easy, disown them and keep the bass
  2. The 2010 American deluxe precision came in natural, black scratchplate, maple neck. I'd love one to match my 2010 jazz V in the same finish. One was up for sale on here recently...
  3. Could upload to soundcloud or similar?
  4. [quote name='mart' timestamp='1352744659' post='1866924'] By the way, I don't mean to pry, but ... going from your sig ... are you really only just 12 years old? [/quote] Haha, I'm not, but my Stingray is
  5. Cheers for all the congrats The thing that's playing on my mind, is whether a bass or instrument is the right thing, or is just my wishful thinking that they will be into it? I would hope they would, but am not gonna force it on them, just surround them with it and hope it takes lol
  6. [quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1352680230' post='1866169'] Congratulations Wooks! That's fantastic news mate. My son is just 17 months old so I'm very much in the thick of it myself. He once wriggled free during a nappy change and parked his sh1tty backside on the body of my bass, which I'd left nearby - took some cleaning that did. And most likely indicates that he's going to be a guitarist. You'll have plenty of such escapades to look forward to! [/quote] That sounds pretty messy! What have I got into?! lol. [quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1352680230' post='1866169'] PS: that OC2 pedal I bought off you some time ago is still going strong! Thanks again. [/quote] Good to hear it man, funny story, I missed mine so much that I went and bought another one off our very own MB1, who then decided he missed his, and last I knew was after buying another
  7. [quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1352711982' post='1866299'] Look at young guys like Tom Vek... [/quote] Love Tom Vek, seriously underrated and overlooked!
  8. Just out of interest, for the price of the [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]PGB-105 5 string, could you not just buy an epiphone?[/font][/color] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]​I cant say I have ever known of anyone 'convert' one bass to another, and you probably would need all the same equipment needed to make one from scratch to even try.[/color][/font]
  9. [quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1352669180' post='1865983'] 1stly massive congrats - magic times. Can you have a word with my dad? That's a cool idea. Gotta be something unique to 2013 - some kinda ltd run us jazz / p bass / stingray if one pops up next yr. [/quote] Thanks very much man, yeah some kind of FSR or limited run would maybe be cool, make it even more year specific. [quote name='Kirky' timestamp='1352671151' post='1866010'] Great idea Si. Whatever you decide to get, I'm sure he or she will love it as much as you loved the gesture from your dad. How are you getting on with the PF500? [/quote] Cheers Martin Yeah, getting on well with the PF500, nice little lightweight head to have around that! I've made a little padded case for it and everything
  10. So in April, I'm gonna have my first little arrival! After getting my own Y.O.B. Precision just last week, I've been thinking a lot more about a bit of a gift for the baby when its older. When I was born my dad went to a big posh wine company in London, and sat and chatted with an expert as to what he should buy, to store with them as a gift to give his son (me) when he turned 21 years old. I was really touched by the thought, and the planning, and the bonding and hanging out cracking open that first bottle together. In fact I have that empty bottle sat right next to me as I type So, in keeping with this kind of idea, I thought, come 2013, I want to buy my little one a Bass/Guitar/Something to keep squirreled away until a milestone b'day such as 18 or 21, and just wanted to get a bit of a thread going to bounce round ideas. A preplanned Y.O.B. in shiny mint condition would be a cool gift I reckon. So the obvious one to me would be a 2013 USA Fender Precision. Brand new, untouched, and then stored straight away, to be kept til the important day! SO... [list] [*]Would you say a standard US Fender Precision would be the right choice? [*]Would you say a Bass rather than guitar? As there will be many Basses to hand... [*]Is there any perfect ways to store a bass for 18 or 21 years unused? [*]Should I avoid an instrument altogether and go a bit more conventional? [/list] Help me out peoples, gimme thoughts and stuff, cheers all
  11. Very nice looking VERY interesting bass. Got any videos or soundclips? (Full disclosure - I have no intentions of buying this bass, as its out of my budget, just very very interested in how that massive pickup sounds!)
  12. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/140368-which-replacement-speaker-do-i-need/page__fromsearch__1
  13. There was a thread somewhere with inner dimension and pics of the inside when I was asking about replacement speakers... I'll try and find it and link to it.
  14. Nice looking bass!
  15. Erm, big, and I dunno... Seriously though, how would I find out for you? cos I haven't got a clue what its made of...
  16. The absolute gentleman that is Paul posted me a precision thumb rest on the promise of a pint What a guy!
  17. Bumpity - Down to £150 as I need to thin out my stuff prior to house move.
  18. [quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1352386738' post='1862443'] Yep sounds about right. I have never heard of a dealer selling fakers. When was this? Name names?! [/quote] Wasn't Music Ground a massive one?
  19. Missed it! This will always be the one that got away
  20. Reckon I'm interested, just waiting on pics of this magnificent beauty
