Yes Jon, still got them! But as I said they're not pretty, there is some corrosion/rust. PM me your address if you want the bits sending. Pete.

Fecking IP.Board Not playing anymore lol

I got bored with the looks of this bass about 20 years ago and attacked it in the shed, the body/neck were reshaped and resprayed. Used for many a gig in the past then it was left in the loft and forgotten about. Anyway, I picked it up for the first time in ages this week - the action was awful so I set about adjusting it, re-strung it and got the action quite sweet. The sound was nice and growly, so, I thought I'd treat it at a few new bits - the originals had gone rusty. Changed the bridge, knobs and tuners with some new parts from Thomann. Setup the action and intonation and it sounds and plays great again. The tuners look a bit lost on the headstock, so I might have to hack a bit more off it if I can be bothered. So what do you reckon? Anyone know what it it/was? [attachment=983:GazmFull.jpg] [attachment=984:GazmBody.jpg] [attachment=985:GazmNeck.JPG] Pete.

If you read the add again his is 3/167. Maybe the numbering system is different to what you might initially think? Perhaps 3/ refers to 2003 and the figure after is the production number. Dunno really just thinking out loud. Pete.

[quote name='wizbat' post='24142' date='Jun 27 2007, 07:51 PM']The switcher unit that,s at the top of the rack just below the pedals does the switching, all I have to do is select a patch from the pedal board onstage, It,s like using a multi effect unit but using my pedals as the effects. The pedal board lets me program what effect chains i want so I can switch in multiple effects in and out with a single step.[/quote] Got ya! So what about that Clark compressor any good?

[quote name='wizbat' post='23864' date='Jun 27 2007, 03:12 AM']Quick Update, The pedals are now in place and all I have to do is make up the 32 jack to jack leads to lace the whole thing up.[/quote] You must be tall to stomp on those pedals

Just ordered some custom size covers from [url="http://www.amplifiercoversonline.com"]them[/url] so, assuming you can wait a bit, will let you know what they're like when they arrive in a couple of weeks. Pete.

He's got it on his [url="http://www.nortonbassplace.com/3bassguitarsforsale.htm"]website[/url] for £485 Pete.

Dave has recently added some sound clips on his website [url="http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/Sound.html"]DHA Sound Clips[/url] Pete.

Hey Mikey, glad to hear you've sorted a fretless 5 - if it plays and sounds as nice as it looks you've got a winner there. Does that mean my W can come out of hiding again Pete

Hi guys, If I'm not mistaken, NAS has offered his exellent establishment for future bashes. The recent Midlands BB was held there and I think that all that attended would agree that the venue was out of this world! It is located near Kidderminster so is fairly central.

[quote name='Cantdosleepy' post='20830' date='Jun 20 2007, 03:11 PM']Awesome! Why do you eq the signal twice?[/quote] I don't! Channel 1 EQ is used in the side-chain in/out for the compressor (channel 1), this is used to 'shape' the compression. Channel 2 EQ is in the signal path in the FX loop. Pete

Hi guys, No BM it's not mine, it belongs to MHUK. I noticed the aspect ratio on the photo got fubard when resizing so here's another: [attachment=805:P1010392A.JPG] I Had a play of it and it seems well made and plays nice. The only -ve comment I'd make is that it sounded a little dull but that might be cured with new strings. Pete.

Some are a bit ropey but here goes: [attachment=747:P1010413.jpg][attachment=748:P1010415.jpg][attachment=749:P10104 16.jpg][attachment=758:P1010427.jpg] [attachment=754:P1010422.jpg][attachment=755:P1010423.jpg][attachment=756:P10104 24.jpg][attachment=757:P1010425.jpg] [attachment=806:P1010392A.JPG][attachment=728:P1010393.jpg][attachment=729:P1010 3 94.jpg][attachment=730:P1010395R.JPG] [attachment=731:P1010396.jpg][attachment=733:P1010398R.JPG][attachment=734:P1010 399.jpg][attachment=735:P1010400.jpg] [attachment=736:P1010401R.JPG][attachment=737:P1010402R.JPG][attachment=738:P101 0403.jpg][attachment=739:P1010404.jpg] [attachment=740:P1010405.jpg][attachment=741:P1010406.jpg][attachment=742:P10104 07.jpg][attachment=743:P1010408R.JPG] [attachment=744:P1010409R.JPG][attachment=745:P1010410.jpg][attachment=746:P1010 411.jpg][attachment=750:P1010417.jpg] [attachment=751:P1010418.jpg][attachment=752:P1010420.jpg][attachment=753:P10104 21R.JPG][attachment=759:P1010428.jpg] [attachment=760:P1010429.jpg][attachment=761:P1010430.jpg][attachment=762:P10104 31.jpg] Pete.

What a great day at a fantastic location Nice to meet you all, I enjoyed myself. Thanks Nick for your hospitality, will post some piccies later too. Pete.

Running a bit late, will be setting off shortly when the rain slows down a bit and lets me load up!

I bought one of these from the same seller and was quite impressed [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Electro-Acoustic-Bass-Guitar-new-43in-natural_W0QQitemZ200107511433QQihZ010QQcategoryZ4713QQcmdZViewItem"]Electro Acoustic Bass Guitar[/url] Took it to the local jam night on Wednesday and ended up selling it to a guy for £12 more than I paid Dunno if I just got lucky but it was a nice bass. Pete.

Hartke strings use coloured ends: B green E brass A red D blue G silver Just looking at your description again they are different - oh well :wacko: Pete.

I'm still going, will be bringing my rig, Ric and either my Yamaha TRB6 II or Warwick Streamer Std 5 fretless (can't play either of em lol ). I'll try to get all three in but it will be a bit of a kerfuffle :wacko: Joe, my vote is for the Stingray. Pete.

Let it b?

Yep four-be-ten here etc.
