  1. On ones with a 9.5 radius fret board, I like about 2.4mm on the E @ 17th fret and 2.0mm on the G.
  2. Not the best but I would still rather listen to her, than any of the young auto corrected upstarts
  3. Another bump and to say that I will sell them singly if necessary.
  4. [quote name='T-Bay' timestamp='1497192059' post='3316439'] How did you package them? Maybe I am being a bit unfair to eBay but I stopped selling on there a couple of years back (mostly old car and bike stuff and only a few bits and pieces) as I just seemed to come across idiot after idiot. How did you value them? Or did you just run them as auctions? [/quote] I purchased some proper card album packaging, you will find them on Ebay if you do a search. If you can't find them, let me know and I'll find you a link. As far as valuing them, some guess work and some search completed sales. As always, good photos and an accurate description will get you the best return. I found that classic Zepp, Floyd, the Who etc. sold well.
  5. I've been selling some of my old vinyl collection and have done so on Ebay, no experience of other sites. So far I've not encountered any of the morons that you speak of Maybe vinyl collectors tend to fall in to the decent bracket.
  6. [quote name='missis sumner' timestamp='1497099686' post='3315845'] Update: Nasty big crack noise - but I think I've got it moving. Followed by another big crack noise, followed by a slightly better crack noise. I'm just going to give it a little more... [/quote] I experienced exactly this when working on a customer's Yamaha bass a while back. When the first crack occurred, I really thought the rod had snapped but actually all was good. I did then take the nut right off and applied some grease before proceeding.
  7. I mostly play with a pick and haven't found it difficult on a Jazz.
  8. [quote name='drewk_ie' timestamp='1496785730' post='3313892'] Pm sent [/quote] Replied, thanks.
  9. Two Hercules Wall Hangers and screws. Used but in good condition. £18 posted, second class signed for. Happy for them to be collected, in which case they will cost you just £ 14.00 I will consider selling them singly if necessary, just pm me. Cash or Bank Transfer.

  10. I've no experience with Ashdown cabs but have to agree that my BF cabs really do sound better, to me, when driven a bit harder.
  11. You know how it is with some people? If it's easier not to put it back on, then why bother. I can relate to it annoying you
  12. [quote name='FinnDave' timestamp='1496420752' post='3311328'] I hope a 112 is up to the job, i've recently ordered a Super Compact to use as an alternative to my Super Twin at smaller gigs. [/quote] Don't think you will be disappointed Dave
  13. I've done a fair few pub and club gigs with one Barefaced Big Baby and GK Fusion 500. Certainly been up to the job.
  14. Congrats, love the look but never actually played one.
  15. [quote name='therealting' timestamp='1496308931' post='3310347'] Why do people post and then delete all traces of it? It's pretty annoying for people arriving at the thread late. [/quote] Agreed, so I won't be deleting it. Fabrocker, please edit the title back to how it was, cheers.
  16. [quote name='bazztard' timestamp='1496201374' post='3309491'] good drumming is more than just pounding the kick and snare incessantly. looked like you were more interested in looking good for the cameras than actually playing well good quality camera work Oh dear, then the 'singing' starts, seeya [/quote] You weren't keen then?
  17. Agree with Walbassist, my fretless is in need of exactly the same tweak, which I'll probably do later today Good luck.
  18. Good find and what an excellent price.
  19. It's the way of the bass sometimes, it does vary from venue to venue and depends on a number of factors, bodies in the room, furnishings, surfaces etc. You need to take note of the comments though, particularly if they are from people whose judgement you trust.
  20. I use a very similar set up to you. GK Barefaced BB2 and Super Compact. Unlike others I tend to not have the gain up high on this amp, my preference is for the master up higher. Most of the controls at 12 o'clock, with the mids boosted up a bit more. Switches on top off.
  21. [quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1493297703' post='3287247'] I like my '72. [/quote] That is lovely.
