  1. [url="http://thedecalshop.co.uk/"]http://thedecalshop.co.uk/[/url] Someone else on here recommended them to me, but not actually tried them yet.
  2. I'm sure I recently spotted some extra long strings by DR, might be worth checking out.
  3. This has got to be a first for this forum, or any other bass forum on the world wide web.
  4. Can you not use a standard off the shelf one? I think the gold anodised fender ones are about £30.00. One of the stickies on the forum has details of suppliers who do custom pickguards.
  5. [quote name='thinman' post='1034348' date='Nov 23 2010, 08:12 PM']I've 84s in my Jazz and I think I know what you're saying when you say "muddy" - they're quite fat sounding and maybe have less bite than standard pickups.[/quote] Elequently put, compared to my feeble effort, thanks.
  6. Like the others have said, he's a top chap and very helpful. I've got 64's in my jazz, my daughter has 84's in her jazz. They do sound very different. I find it very hard to describe sounds what I would say though is that the 64's sound more defined, the 84's deeper maybe more muddy. See what I mean, rubbish at describing sound. They both sound good though. Right I'm off having cleared up this discussion for you
  7. I couldn't get the link to do it's thing Chris. Will try again later. So I've not ignored your post but been thwarted.
  8. Nice one. I always feel that life seems extra fine when the sound is right. When it's not, I find it very confidence zapping.
  9. Always made me chuckle back in the day and ashamed to say, it still does.
  10. That's a weird looking beastie. Looks like the sort of thing the crew of Star Trek might use if they were to put a band together. Quite like it really.
  11. Looking good. Hope you enjoy the upcoming tweeking and tinkering.
  12. As I don't play guitar these days so this for sale. Epiphone EP1000 combo. 20 watt 10" 4 ohm speaker. Two channels: clean and overdriven. Controls as follows: Gain, Volume, Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble. Inputs: Foot switch and Head phones. Overall this little amp is in very good condition, no rips or tears to the covering or grille. One of the plastic corner protectors is cracked, other than that all perfect. [s]£ 55.00 Now £45.00 [/s]NOW ONLY £40 collected from my place in Herts. Surprised it hasn't sold at this price, it's a great little amp for not much dosh. Overnight courier if required, will be £16.

  13. He sounds like the Arthur Daley of guitar sales....priceless.
  14. Enjoy the gig matey. Look forward to seeing more pics.
  15. That just looks mega cool. Nice job. Does it sound as impressive as it looks?
  16. Regardless of ability if you can afford it, just treat yourself..... cos your worth it.
  17. Top Bass Chatter, contacted me and offered then sent a set of fender tuners FOC. A very kind gesture and much appreciated.
  18. Good to deal with, a fine Bass Chatter.
  19. A pain free transaction and a true gent to deal with.
  20. Nice find, looks good. At the risk of making myself look a total knob, who's Pat Badger? I'll go and do a bit of googling.
  21. Worse one in many a year for me. One depp and just a short mini gig last weekend at a charity firework bash. On the plus side rehearsals are really enjoyable and productive at the moment.
  22. [quote name='icastle' post='1021529' date='Nov 12 2010, 03:02 PM']Got it! The shiny chrome plated rings on our gas hob had gone really manky, we used a whole pile of different cleaning stuff and it made no difference. Last night we dropped them into a bowl of Caustic Soda that we picked up from our local DIY chainstore. This morning I fished them out and washed them down - the Caustic Soda had certainly removed all of the mank... and the chrome plate as well - they're all dull now. Good news for your quest but not so good for our oven... [/quote] I think she will allow that one. I might actually try Caustic Soda, maybe not an overnighter though, just an hour or so.
