  1. Let me just double check measurements, I am very interested as my Bogart 4’s Barts need replacing and I think these are spot on... will measure when I get home.
  2. do you have exact dimensions? 3.5” by 1.5”?
  3. That looks very special. Enjoy!
  4. Traded pedals with ABD, top chap! Would recommend to anyone. Thanks fella!
  5. Didn’t the ‘70s Fender PS400 put out 435watts? Must be up there.
  6. Dolores O'Riordan found dead in a London hotel.... Cranberries no more

      Yes, I was shocked by this sad news too. Still haven't seen a report of cause of death.... :(
      46 is way way too young

  7. They got the thieves, not the equipment.
  8. The only positive thing is that these are so rare in the US that if/when they surface they’ll stick out like a sore thumb.
  9. That is very sorry to hear, storage unit theft is really an epidemic in the US. I really detest thieves, pond scum.
  10. Okay, officially raising eyebrows and GAS levels
  11. You mean him and the pygmee pony
  12. Nice playing, the EMGs compliment the Ibanez well and the amp sounds great. If it is good enough for Victor Wooten
  13. They’ll make him use zircon encrusted tweezers, quite the challenge
  14. Great pre, GLWTS
  15. What the heck, first an 8 now a 6x10..... good price.
  16. No brainer, whoever got this got themselves a great cab at a great price.
  17. Venture MPulse 600 as my main (basically a slant head version of the MPulse 600), I have tried to find a lighter alternative but as far as the sound goes the warm, round defined tone it gives me is one of the best bass tones I’ve ever had and has not been surpassed since buying my 1st MPulse. I tried a D800 which was a great amp, but a little dark for my taste. I also owned a Walkabout 15 (sold it to Beedster of this very parish) which was great for smaller gigs, sounded different to the MPulse but had the same warm, round tone. I tried an M6 which personally did not do it for me compared to the MPulse, the BigBlock 750 I tried was another tone I loved, wouldn’t mind having one. And the 400/400+ is still one of the most highly regarded all valve amps out there.
  18. Who needs wood anyway, I rate my graphite/composite Bogarts over most wooden basses any day of the week... personal taste and all. But seriously, beyond aging, settling of the fibers etc, a good bass is a good bass. I have played a pre CBS Jazz which sounded and played like a turd, I also played one that made me want to sell a kidney. Same with 2 pre EB Stingrays. So to me, quality of materials and luthier skills is what makes the bass, not the age. Just as I would never fork out 10k on a Smith, Thompson, Fodera I would not pay 5k for a vintage instrument. But that’s just me. And also, so much depends on your touch... tone is in the fingers not the wood nor the EQ.
  19. Thanks, I am sorted. GLWTS
  20. Hmmm, good question. I am quite GAS free - never entirely of course - but who knows what will happen post NAMM. I do want to stick Aggie DCBs in all my basses as they are pretty incredible.... okay so I have GAS
  21. To me the pots and wires pose a bit of a conundrum, it could be me but I think perhaps they are not original.... I would expected some more corrosion of sorts. I fear you may never fully know what’s what, but hey as long as it plays and sounds good.
  22. Still sounds like Janek. I shudder to think how much the full custom will be, 8000 is my guess.
