  1. [quote name='cd_david' timestamp='1425479858' post='2707752'] I knew Id seen this one before, it used to be mine, I sold it about 2 years ago and regretted it straight away, its a lovely bass. [/quote] You are quite right David, it is a lovely bass and it now lives in my house.
  2. Do you think Finnish Crack Tango will be adopted by Strictly for the 2015 season?
  3. [quote name='lou24d53' timestamp='1425387196' post='2706734'] Anyone else find themselves reading that script section in an Eastern European accent? [/quote] Yep, hate to admit it but I did.
  4. I've just read your quoted section again, I would definitely walk away, it screams of the classic drawing you in type of scam to me.
  5. Like Jack and Wooks, I would be very careful. On the info provided I certainly wouldn't be going to his gaff with a pocket full of cash.
  6. Looking good. Makes it all the more pleasing when it has been a long search. Hope you enjoy
  7. Hi Keith and welcome. You have some lovely kit there.

    Another great deal and a personal delivery service to my gaff. Bass exactly as described, I'm very happy with it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mark, first class Bass Chatter.
  9. Hi Barnsie. Enjoy your time here. Get some ads up in the relevant for sale sections and you will get your stuff shifted
  10. Welcome Catalin. The cab project is looking good. What finish are you planning for it?
  11. If you are thinking of going for a G&L WOT, this is a useful link: [url="http://www.americanguitarboutique.net/SB1BassGuitarGen.html"]http://www.americang...sGuitarGen.html[/url] I've had two USA G&L's, an SB1 which is my main gigging bass and an SB2, which I recently sold on here. Both excellent but 1980's vintage instruments with different controls to the current models, so maybe not relevant to your question. My SB1, although passive, is certainly a turbo charged Precision. The MFD pups in the USA models are very, very hot. The SB1 weighs 9lb 4oz and the SB2 9lb. The bridges are very substantial and a breeze to adjust and lock. The neck plate, although only the three screw variety is perfectly stable and also has the neck tilt adjustment, to save on faffing with shims. A couple of pics down below. The SB1 is the white one.

  12. [quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1425078132' post='2703836'] Very nice Gary. the fingerboard is especially nice [/quote] Thanks Cameron, it is a very pleasing looking piece of wood. [quote name='Kev' timestamp='1425078465' post='2703839'] Nice upgrade, that is wonderful Glad you approve Kev, I am extremely chuffed with it. I am tempted to gig it tonight but the venue is quite cramped and generally busy, so not sure. All these things to worry about [/quote]
  13. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1425087841' post='2703905'] Well it went great, will do a post later but am still buzzing having just got home. [/quote] That's good to hear. Enjoy a post gig cuppa and savour that buzz
  14. Another Dingwall in the house [url="https://flic.kr/p/riTWXJ"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/qnbAcT"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/r2rd8m"][/url]
  15. There is one for sale on here at the moment
  16. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1425029525' post='2703039'] Maybe you are an insufferable ballache ;-) [/quote] Have you considered a career as a Counsellor?
  17. I noticed this a while back when I just grabbed an old pic out of the gig bag. After the first number I had to swap back to my usual Jim Dunlop Stubby 2 mm and there was my sound again.
  18. I've had them on a couple of basses, I have found them useful but not essential. I did find I was getting an intonation problem on one of my Dingwalls. Easily sorted though, it just needs setting up correctly, which when you know how, is very easy.
