  1. Ah, ok, so seldom see one with a rosewood board!
  2. Never tried one from that era. Do us a favour would you @Quilly don't sell it to me if you decide to let it go. I have more TE than I can ever use and need to sell not buy.
  3. Sorry to ask what may be a silly question, but can anyone explain the whole nitro thing? I hear it mentioned often but don't know anything other than the foam on some stands causes something bad! Enlighten me please!
  4. I'm glad I didn't know about not mixing cabs. Done it all my life. Well, all my bass life any way. The sound when I use a TE cab loaded with an Epifani 10" paired with a TCE 2X8 is orgasmic. Similarly 12" BF with a 15" BF. 15" Bugera in a TE box paired with a TE 2X10 also sounds amazing. Suck it and see is always my advice. What you hear, what you like is the only thing that matters. Remember unless there's a bassist in the audience no one but you really cares.
  5. Hi, out of interest. Which ones are you going to be selling? If and when the time is right.
  6. But when we will get ring pulls on the toast????
  7. One thing we can all agree on; flats on a precision are like beans on toast.
  8. I normally don't either. But on some basses the strings I like just instantly feel wrong
  9. Definitely think about Barefaced. I run two of their 15s and they deep, moving bottom end is massive. As @Lozz196@Lozz196 also says can't go far wrong with Ashdown amps.
  10. I have owned two Eden amps, one of which is in a combo. An 8X10 combo! They are outstanding but heavy. The tone controls seemed more responsive than anything else I have ever played through. Not tried any of their later stuff.
  11. Now I know they're Japanese I'm not surprised!
  12. Well this is a new one on me
  13. Absolutely. The set I bought were expensive (everything's relative of course) which is why I got them second hand. That little sheet shank is the business.
  14. Very kind of you. Have to say I doubt I'll make anything like the most of it either! But @Quatschmacher has a couple of patches which are exactly what I've always wanted and those alone will make it a great toy.
  15. They are open but.... the normal slick service is stumbling. I was told my order would be late as one item was missing. Then told the order would be sent in two parts because one item was out of stock - but not the same item as previously missing. I emailed to ask if I could swap the now out of stock item for a different, more in stock item, but I seem to have broken them.
  16. Thread resurrection: Shame on you lot telling the OP to just 'buy another string' ! This is my kind of thing; inventive, creative, ecologically aware, and above all cheap. Oh and it saved me yesterday. Set of second hand strings, one already cut too short. Guy I bought them from too tiresome to talk to so I needed a cunning solution and here it is. Thank you @tommorichards (if you still exist)
  17. Glad to hear you're sorted wish I had read this thread earlier, have a few big old heads I'm looking to move. The Ashdown will be fantastic I've no doubt. If for any reason it does not do it for you, hit me up.
  18. Thanks @itu, I have sent a message offering to buy the pedal. One step at a time for this old chap.
  19. OK. So I've just finished reading the Future Compact thread. First of all I have to take my hat off to @GisserD - amazing work. However I also feel like a time traveller from the middle ages. 3D printing??? No clue what that might mean. Printing bring 2D by its very nature. Even ignoring this, the prospect of buying a pedal for £200 then a different box (made by some kind of sorcery) ripping the guts out of the pedal and hoping to get it all back together again in a box with less space to work in and with my dubious skillset is terryfying. I haven't even bought the pedal and I just broke out into a cold sweat!
  20. I didn't know that I loved Elites until I asked what was on a bass I'd bought. Loved the strings so much I had to know. Stadium Elites. The flats they make are amazing too.
  21. Thanks man, thought I was going bonkers. 1982 Aria Pro 2, Chickenbacker and one of my Harley B's can't stand flats of any brand! Go figure!
