  1. Nooooo not the loft!!! Hope it’s warm and dry loft!
  2. Its a later one too so its the solid alder (I believe) body rather than the composite/ply they used on the earlier ones. Also need to change the tuners as they are pretty much past their sell by date - but I do have a set of Wilkinson 70's style that I bought from here on a whim about a year or so ago.

    Bought Pete's SD Quarter Pounders - excellent condition with all the bits in the original box, arrived quickly and so well packaged I could have played football with it and not worried one bit! Thanks Pete
  4. Years ago (1996 to be exact) I bought a maroon-ish coloured brand new MIK Squier as a backup to my 76 P bass. It never really got played much and was sold on when I quit and sold all my gear around 2000. Fast foreward to this week, and this comes up on ebay - same year/model/colour. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Squier-P-Bass-Korean/254711420265?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648 Arrived today - oh god was it dirty - gunky fretboard, dirty body and neck, collapsed pickups, crackly pots. Upside is the neck is fine aside from a lot of grime and dings, Truss rod works great. Basic clean up done and stage 1 of upgrades (Gotoh 201B, SD Quarter Pounders, Sprague/switchcraft/CTS loom). Gold mirrored pickguard due and more cleaning.
  5. Wasn't sure till I compared the grain pattern - and that difference in stain colour just on the bass side of the bridge. I bought it from somebody else on here. If I had £900 burning a hole in my pocket I'd buy it in a heartbeat! Looks like you looked after it well, glad it's had some decent usage.
  6. Mine too at one point, traded for a 62RI and cash... lovelly bloody bass. Miss it.
  7. I could see the attraction - she was somewhere between Clara Osborne from Dr Who and Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeah's (and by christ she could sing) But I was there to write music not play "Fleetwood Mac style hide the sausage".. LOL. He never got his wicked way either way.
  8. No. But I was in a band where the guitarist had the hots for the singer, then wanted to fire her when she brushed him off. So I ended up firing him for a few reasons.. and she left because I had fired him (not knowing he was actively trying to get her fired...)
  9. He's just Testing us...
  10. Owzat?
  11. should be Bye now...
  12. Doesn't Bowl me Over in the slightest..
  13. Report them as a non-performing seller.
  14. The case is identical to what was (before knowledge and the internet) sold to me as a refinished 76 P Bass. In some wys it looks right, but in others (in the words of Han Solo) "I have a bad feeling about this"
  15. Thats a VERY clean neck for a 75. VERY. Just saying.
  16. My newest one - LWA1000 with 2 matching 4x8 Celestion loaded cabs. Lightest (and loudest) rig I've owned.
  17. The Washburn XS-5 I owned was the same but J J. Always thought it wierd as my XS-4 (the 4 string variant) has normally positioned P/J's
  18. Just bought one of Chris's Warwick gigbags. Just as described and sent fast. Top bloke.
  19. Where in East Mids are you? I have a variety of bits (pickups, bridges, bodies, couple of necks) that I should really get rid off
  20. with enough petrol and a couple of nicely aimed matches I'm sure it will catch on just fine....
  21. My mate has a nice collection of guitars (he cant play very well so its just a collection) couple of Jacksons, Dave Murray sig Strat, Couple of MiM Strats and a MIM tele. Gretsch Streamliner. Vintage V100AFD, Brian May Red Special.. out of them all if I could pinch one have to say it's his Gretsch. Love that thing.
  22. I'd be interested in the Premium (1) OR one of the standards if its still available. Have yo be posted as we are in Rona self isolation hell (thanks kids)
  23. Nothing special - Epiphone 2016 Les Paul Traditional Pro II
  24. Checked everywhere - right out of monkeys to give either way.
