[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.

[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?

Agree with Walbassist, my fretless is in need of exactly the same tweak, which I'll probably do later today Good luck.

Good find and what an excellent price.

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.

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.

[quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1493297703' post='3287247'] I like my '72. [/quote] That is lovely.

that is a serious knob collection. Good luck, hope it works out for you Ped. I have to admit to struggling when faced with anything other than P bass controls.

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1495961419' post='3307725'] I upset Mrs Lurks when I told her I could sell all my other guitars now , she complained that I wasn't allowed to because of the guitar brackets on the walls would look awful without guitars hanging on them [/quote] Love it.

You lucky chap, that does look the business

[quote name='T-Bay' timestamp='1495817934' post='3306878'] Any idea of price for one? [/quote] Just pm John and he will give you a price double quick.

Just taken delivery of another of John's excellent kits. As always a pleasure to deal with one of BC's true gents.

Well it looks good

I seem to recall that an early 70's Jazz that I sold, has recently been offered for sale here on the forum. If it is still available, I can thoroughly recommend it as a very good one.

There is an impostor among us

Definitely worth doing. Just about every bass and guitar I work on, need a few frets leveled and crowned.

CTS pot would be my choice.

They still should Karl. Let us know if rules have been broken.

That does sound like a fine deal. Shall I, shan't I.........maybe

What a shame, after all your efforts. All the best to Chris and you Mick. Let's look forward to a bigger and even better bash next year.

My fender Rumble has been excellent for home practice. Well built, decent sound quality and so far has proved very reliable.

[quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1494934671' post='3299681'] Same here - Servisol is the one for me. Maybe it's worth contacting them if you, like me, find the lack of tubes vexing. The company's called CRC [email protected] Maybe we could raise it as an election issue...."Britain's not going down the tubes" [/quote] Cheers for that

I didn't know that they weren't doing the tubes anymore. Doesn't make sense, like you, I use the tube just about every time. I hesitated to spend out the dosh on Servisol the first time but have to say, it was money well spent. I would take a lot of persuading to try a different product now. Use it just about every day. Today it's already been used on a P bass and an old Pacifica that I'm servicing.

Despite me having a fairly serious chest infection, a good one for us last night in Hertford. If it hadn't been for a hefty dose of Steroids, I don't think I would have been able to do it. A sofa day today.
