  1. Everything points to this being a cracking piece of kit WOT. Great to read of your good experience with it. I'm due to road test one of these amps myself and very much looking forward to it. It should be arriving at my place this week, hopefully in time for me to take it along to the Herts Bash, so that BC'ers can give it the once over.
  2. Very lovely. G&L pups do take some getting used, worth persevering with though. I've found that the mixing of the tone/volume controls on G&L instruments really gets a pleasing end result. Have to admit to not being experienced with the LB100 but I've had and gigged a few SB1's and SB2's.
  3. Great purchase. Worse case you could sell the parts for more than you've laid out but I bet, with a bit of fettling, it will be a decent enough player.
  4. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1464453518' post='3059604'] I expect that all the best parking will have gone... [/quote] Yep, my stretch limo takes a fair bit of the available space
  5. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1464445404' post='3059520'] Is anybody planning on bringing anything to sell?? Need to know how much space to allocate for this. So far it seems like it's me selling an amp and Sibob selling his Shuker 5 string (which I thought he'd sold) - I'm sure others (Gary Mac's vintage Fender?) will have gear they'd like to rehome. [/quote] Hadn't thought about bringing my 63 P but happy to if anyone is interested. Maybe I'll just bring it anyway, there must be BC'ers who even if not in the market for one, would like to at least see and/or play a pre CBS instrument.
  6. That is one seriously cool looking rig

I have so far found the courier I use, to be trustworthy and very reliable, having said that, as with most of the couriers, they don’t offer insurance cover for cabs. So, if you want it couriered it will not be insured and is therefore at the buyers risk.[/center] To discuss posting or for any other questions, just message me and I’ll be back to you as soon as poss.

  11. [quote name='sunburstjazz1967' timestamp='1464342828' post='3058580'] So we need different basses for different cabs now, no wonder people say going light weight is expensive! [/quote] I nearly responded to this but have decided that I've much better things to do, like well erm, anything really.
  12. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1464342599' post='3058577'] Thanks Rob - must visit one of these days. I see that no matter how big the new room, it's already filled to capacity with basses! [/quote] and what a pleasing sight that is
  13. Very kind of you to state us as a good example Fran. Now then, do I risk pointing my band mates at this thread?
  14. [quote name='grahamd' timestamp='1463947630' post='3055272'] Brilliant read, more complete telling of the story than the film too [/quote] I thought this would be snapped up, what with all the Jaco fans on here. Anyway, another bump and then if it doesn't sell, off to Ebay
  15. [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1464169792' post='3057070'] Sounds like you're grounding some of the wiring - can you pop a strip of paper or card between the pots and the bottom of the control cavity, see if that stops any odd contacts ? I'd check to see that nothing touches the sides of the cavity as well. HtH [/quote] Had the same problem a while back after shielding one of mine. A slight tweak of the output socket, so that it wasn't touching the foil tape, sorted it.
  16. A strange gig for us on Saturday night at the lovely little rural market town of Old Hemel in Herts. Arrived at the allotted time, to be told we would have to start late as the F.A. Cup was on I was a bit hacked off really, it's not as though the football was sprung on them last minute. Not the easiest of load ins at the best of times but a mob of drunken, chanting football fans didn't make it any more of a pleasure. Anyway we finally started and against all expectations it was shaping up great, a full dance floor and an enthusiastic crowd. Then a drunken twat started dancing around with a bar stool, swinging it in all directions. A slightly less drunken punter, stepped in and made a valiant effort to wrestle the stool away and for his troubles ended up with his leg pointing in the opposite direction to how it should be Ambulance called and the poor chap was finally carted off on a stretcher, amazingly the drunken twat who had caused the mayhem was allowed to stay and was still bragging about flooring the bloke. We got started again following a break of about an hour and three quarters and ended playing to a lively audience who made us very welcome.
  17. Same as Karl, I'm finding myself excited by the chicken heads. I'm new to knob GAS.
