  2. [quote name='ColinB' timestamp='1421862209' post='2665947'] Volume3 means that lead gets soldered to tag #3 on the Volume pot. [/quote] Thanks! I may need to ask you about all the other shorthand too.
  3. I've just spotted that they have a circuit for a Wampler Black 65...hmmmmmm. Some of the shorthand instructions are a little hard to follow for the uninitiated, such as myself though, eg. volume3
  4. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1421843047' post='2665570'] My local amp tech has made a 1000w all valve bass amp. I want it. [/quote] Does it come with a hot plate and BBQ tongs?
  5. [quote name='adledman' timestamp='1421766192' post='2664712'] if still available i will be very interested in this. cheers. ad [/quote] PM'd
  6. I've used 2400 grit wet n dry on the neck of my spector. It can be reversed with some automotive cutting compound.
  7. I am a keen user (and unwitting promoter, it seems) of tiltback set ups. I started with two GK RB700 combos - great pieces of kit, apart from the castors disintegrating. They're all the amp anyone is likely to need. Having the cabs pointing directly up at me, rather than having the mids and highs blasting past my knees, was a revelation (especially with fretless). However I had to give them up after having back issues. I then went to a lightweight solution but noone at the time was making tiltback lightweight cabs. Stands were an extra item to carry and didn't prevent the cabs from walking while in use. I had a look at old Trace and SWR tiltback design cabs but wasn't too impressed by the specifications of either. However recently I've purchased a pair of fEARless F112 tiltback cabs and power them with GB shuttle 6.0's. Great solution so far although not cheap and I have yet to give them the full beans.
  8. How on earth has looking like an Edwardian farmer become so popular? Some of the beardier ones need to stand a bit closer to the clippers or risk looking like Brian Blessed parodies.
  9. Will probably take this to be repaired... Flump bump

  11. I'm a tax resident of two countries at the moment (NZ IRD are hanging on for grim death to any kiwis who leave to work overseas) and get hit at whatever the highest rate is (NZ at the moment). Charging VAT on where the purchaser is located seems to be an auditing minefield. How would either HMRC or the seller prove that the location used for calculating VAT was correct...? Also, given the purchaser will have their own tax residency and VAT/sales tax registration status, how does caliming back the VAT work out if the country they purchase in is different to the country they're registered for sales tax in?
  12. Apparently they burn hotter when cremated. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2154897/Dead-obese-woman-body-fat-set-building-cremation.html
  13. Cheers Luke!
  14. How much does it weigh?
  15. Heh, I was looking at that very ad last night...
  16. Bladerunner by vangelis for me also and anything written by Lalo Schifrin.
  17. If it was a Tony Goggle signature bass, that's where the volume pot would go for the neck LEDs. The brightness control for the pickups would be located on the headstock. Although after 1993 they perfected wireless technology enough that the brightness control could be located at the back of the room, on the bar counter by the Old Rosie tap.
  18. Apart from the distortion, I love how tight his bass sounds. But I'm a little biased...
  19. Pulling the trigger on a $1.2 million gaff back in 1995 when he wasn't really established made me think is that his wife was on good money as a paedetrician. Of course with Fourplay's commercial success and Nathan able to command top rate (assuming that he wants to) for tours and sessions, I'm sure they're both laughing all the way to the bank now. Not sure I'd be very comfortable with a feature on where I live - would be like issuing an open invitation to burglars.
  20. None for me - all my sales have been made for the right reasons. Still kicking myself about letting the status necked musicman mongrel I put together go for silly money. A regular on here has is now and had it refinished in black,
  21. We posted this on the FB page also
  22. Welcome aboard Mike.
