    Given what you have said, unless you really need the dosh, I would tend to avoid. There is bound to be another position available in the not too distant and maybe it will be a set more to your liking. I've been trying to get Stuck in the Middle, Mustang Sally and Brown Eyed Girl relegated to standby material but the thing is punters do request them, particularly at the social club type gigs. It's strange really, I play with a band of relative youngsters, yet they want to do all the old stuff and I keep suggesting the more modern stuff

    Yes I've done the same bought one from them for a jap body, perfect. Got to agree, they are good people to deal with.

    first bump

    I've found kit with smaller dimensions to be so much better for the pub scene. Getting gear in and out of most pubs can be a total pain, the combination of doors, corridors and drunken twats always standing right in the place that makes it most difficult to pass. 8 x 10's are good for frightening the landlord though

    It has been pointed out to me that this bridge may not be a fender, as it has seven fixing holes as opposed to the usual five. So I will alter the title and the price. Should I charge extra given that there are two additional fixing points or reduce the price due to not being able to confirm the manufacturer? I'll go for a price drop. £11.00 inc. postage.

    A deal was struck, payment was immediate. A fine Bass Chatter and a pleasure to deal with. Recommended

    [quote name='Ruiner' timestamp='1357559835' post='1924364'] Is Flea renowned for his choice of badly set up instruments? Hasn't' he also used Musicman/Modulus/wal basses in his time? Does that mean they are inferior also? Confused. [/quote] and me

    Great work Nige, really enjoyed that. Found the vid very slightly distracting but that's probably down to watching at the the tail end of a migraine,

    [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1357545203' post='1924130'] Yeah it's a shame, he was a good chap to have on here. [/quote] Agreed, miss quite a few of the old regulars on here. On the plus side, Mr. Discreet is amongst us again

    [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1357521379' post='1924068'] Dominant 7 chord with some or all of the following upper extensions - flat 9 (G), sharp 9 (A), sharp 11 © and flat 13 (D). Altered scale is the 7th mode from melodic minor scale and contains all the above alterations. [/quote] Newbies aren't allowed to have all this knowledge, it's just not fair. Now go away and start asking questions like "should I buy a jazz or a p"

    Nice bass, I sold it to Ikay last year. Bet it sounds so right with flats on.

    [quote name='Mark Dixon' timestamp='1357491046' post='1923412'] Woo hoo, I've done a deal with my brother, I've traded/bought back the other 4 Wals, just sat here staring at 6 Wal basses, I'm now a pig in the u know what.. [/quote] Glad that you are reunited. What a collection

    [quote name='TheRockinRoadie' timestamp='1357072728' post='1917238'] Looks really similar to mine - I just need the matching Headstock! Great taste [url="http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=TChd6DpwTVWbYma6nWwY%2B4h4l5k2TGxc"][/url] [/quote] Great taste indeed Sprayed up the headstock myself and quite pleased with the result.

    Fairly recent convert here. Love them on my 58 bitza p bass. They are also a brilliant company to deal with, their customer service being really first rate.

    If you do decide to go with the traditional type bridge, then I'm with White Cloud, The Gotoh 201 is a really nice bit of kit and for me much more pleasing than the Badass. I've not got any experience of the other type of bridge, other than on my Wal. Not broken a string in a gigging situation but as you say, it could happen.

    If I'm using rounds these days it has to be DR Hghbeams. If flats then it D'addario Chromes. So smooth and lovely
  19. gary mac
    I hadn't spotted the price tag but looked at the Wal anyway.

    Enjoy your big spend up and hope it helps relieve the boredom.

    If you click on the pic you should hopefully be able to see all the controls fairly clearly. If not, let me know and I can send you some more pics. Thanks,

    High quality three ply, mint green, precision pick guard. I can't confirm the manufacturer but the quality is better than some of the Fender ones that I've seen. Screening foil to the control area. Very good condition with just some light scratches/pick marks. This is a thirteen screw hole version, with additional holes for thumbrest and cover. £14.50 inc. postage. Bank transfer please.
