    I do. I'll PM you.

    2 for me, and we only play stuff that was recorded by the Pogues.

    Here's a picture of the one from my SB465.

    Definitely this.

    I love the sound that Richard Bona gets on the Reverence album, and I think it's a great fit with the styles of music. Here's a couple of examples. Where he drops down to the pedal note in Suninga at 0.42 it still sends shivers down my spine. TIme to break the headphones out.

    I love these instruments, the sound they make is incredible. Would love to hear you playing them once the lockdown is lifted.

    dave.c had a pair of the original SP212s and they sounded really good.

    People have had great results with the John East pre-amps. He's showing out of stock at the moment but might be worth a call, he's a nice chap very friendly and helpful.

    Au contraire, I've just had a quick count up and have at least 31 instruments in the house, not including the guitars owned by my son, amplification, pedals, etc and another build on the way. But I am coming round to the idea that it's usually better to understand the problem and fix it, than to throw money at it and hope it'll go away.

    The FDeck is a wonderful piece of kit no doubt, but if AndyBass is already using a K&K pre-amp he doesn't need to go and spend any more money on another pre-amp. All K&K preamps have an input impedance of 1MOhm.

    You could make a box for it to stand in, that way you could vary the dimensions so that it was a good fit for your bass. I think Bassace had a thread some time ago about how to do this.

    You'd be better off with the distance from the 12th fret to the coil centres.

    More 'lawsuit' twaddle. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-collectors-vintage-1975-EB-3-Electric-Bass-Guitar/324125443973?hash=item4b7761c785:g:27YAAOSwdppeiHnx Unfortunately not rare enough.

    Setting up a collection , rather than sending it to someone else, drastically reduces the number of couriers you can use. Could try Eurosender with basschat discount - search parcel discount and you'll find the thread explaining it.

    Mike Walsh's handiwork on my CIJ Precision:

    And Musicman, virtually everything they make is 17.5mm and the OLP clones were 16.5mm . Pretty sure my G&L Tribute was 16.5mm too.
  17. pete.young
    Yamaha BBNE2 is 18mm at the bridge. 19mm: Bass Collection SGC Nanyo Yamaha TRB 5P MK1 MTD basses - I had a Kingston but they're all the same spacing. 35" scale length though.

    Mmm. As other have said, depends on your bass. I'd start with it flat, small boost at 400Hz, slightly smaller boost at 800Hz and tweak the compressor to see if it does anything useful.

    If you have some switch cleaner, spray it onto a plug and put that in and out of the socket a few times, has been known to work occasionally!

    I'd say 'I Saw Her Standing There' is currently very uncool, especially when murdered by a bunch of 50-something dad-rockers. But the bass line credentials are impeccable.
  21. pete.young
    Usually the latter.
  22. pete.young
    Carmine Rojas? He'd be on my list. He'd be joined by Richard Cousins, Nathan East , and Colin Hodgkinson.

    Thats why it mostly grows in churchyards. Consecrated ground was one of the few places off-limits to grazing animals in the middle ages.
  24. pete.young
    Under normal circumstances I'd say bring it round and we can try it on a different cab & lead, but I don't think that's such a good idea at the moment. Could it be dirty jack sockets in the effects loop? I've heard of that causing trouble with other equipment.

    The one at the SE bass bash was my orange one. Identical in every other respect to this one, apart from the colour.
