  2. Hi , For sale my Blackstar ID Core Stereo 20 Guitar Amp . As new condition ( spent most of its life in its box ) Bought for home recording but now record with V=Amp . Price includes delivery to UK Mainland . Pics to follow . Pete
  3. Your dead right ! Best Bass rig I have ever owned , just wish my lower back would agree ! ! ! ! ! ! Every morning after a gig , my back would " complain " , and I would walk around like a 100 year old on crutches ( mind you I am 69 ! ) Saying that , I now have a lightweight Warwick LWA1000 running into two GK 2x12 lightweight Neo cabs . The sound is so uncoloured , I use a Tech21 VT Bass pedal in front to warm it up .. My back is happy , and I am . Whoever buys this , or parts of it , will get a bargain .( they might have to go on a body building course ! ) Pete
  4. Hi All, Price reduction ..........Will sell both cabs for £500 cash on pickup ( or £275 each ) , and Head £500 cash on pickup . Pete
  5. Sorry wrong post Pete
  6. Hi All , Just came across this book on flea bay ..............Item no.[size=3]191993941624[/size] [b]Bass Culture - The John Entwistle Bass Collection[/b] , buy it now [b]...............£316.58p[/b] I have this book ( bought for me by my Daughter 2 years ago for [b]£29.99[/b] - printed on rear cover ! ) Could this be Brexit inflation again ? Pete
  7. Hi Colin, They are 18mm across ( both ) and Bridge is 94mm , neck is 92mm . This is measured at the top face of the pup . Not really interested in the Di Marzios ( had them before - found them too mellow ) By the way, I have tried all sorts of Jazz Bass pups ( Bartolini , Lindy Fralin , Fender Custom shop , etc etc ) and the best , IMHO are the Nordstrand . They are expensive ( £160 pair ) but well worth it ., and they fit perfectly . I will be away now for a few days of isolation ( no phone or internet - brilliant ) so there will be no way of contact till Friday , but they will still be here when I get back . Thanks Pete
  8. I have given up on heavy gear ( Mesa Boogie 600W M-Pulse head , 2 2x10 Powerhouse cabs ) because every morning after a gig , my lower back would hurt like hell . Now using 2 2x12 G&K Neo cabs ( 50lb each ) , and a Warwick LWA 1000 Head .( 6lb in weight !) - NO back problems now . Just measured the action on my Bitsa Jazz .......at 12th fret distance between bottom of string to top of fret ........... E .140" A .130" D .120" G .110" About .015" relief on neck String Gauge .105 .085 .065 .045 Pete
  9. My bitsa Jazz , has a high action , because I find a much better balance across the output of the strings . Could it be that they are allowed to vibrate more freely , without buzzing on frets ? . I had a terrible problem with the output varying across the strings with a low action Tried balanced tension sets etc etc , but as soon as I raised the action , balance heaven ! I only use Fender 7250M ( quite cheap ) but I dont seem to notice how high the action is when gigging . Anyhow , what amp are you using now Lozz ( I take it you sold my Ampeg on ? ) Pete
  10. Hi, Yep I have just searched my "spares " box and found them . I had forgoten they were there . They are Fender Standard Jazz ( the short one for the neck , and the longer one at the bridge ) If I remember correctly , they were bought from someone here on Basschat . There are some surface scratches on the cases , but still fully functional . £40 to you incl UK Mainland postage . Pete

  12. Anyone with any info ?
  13. Hi, Just bought one of these acoustic Guitars , only info I can find is that they are made in Vietnam . Looked at their web site , and none match any current models . There is no head stock logo , no serial number , Just a oval shaped shim of wood inside stating Duy Ngoc . The reason I got it was because it has a wonderful balanced tone across the strings , and a nice feel to the neck . I love playing a six string now and then . Cost £130 , including a VERY padded gig bag . Will get some pics up tomorrow ( must rehearse the bass for the gig tonight ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ) [URL=http://s1298.photobucket.com/user/petetexas/media/SDC12017_zpslspjzj4q.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag59/petetexas/SDC12017_zpslspjzj4q.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1298.photobucket.com/user/petetexas/media/SDC12021_zpshjyii5ks.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag59/petetexas/SDC12021_zpshjyii5ks.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1298.photobucket.com/user/petetexas/media/SDC12029_zpstb808vx4.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag59/petetexas/SDC12029_zpstb808vx4.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1298.photobucket.com/user/petetexas/media/SDC12030_zpss1stewep.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag59/petetexas/SDC12030_zpss1stewep.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Pete
