    Yeah, I moved up from Croydon three months ago to the village of Little Paxton! I still commute to London though, so meeting there could also be an option.

    I have here a beautifully knackered Fender Road Worn Precision for sale. Factory reliced, so still in 'as new' condition - and always will be! It is therefore impossible to harm the resale value of this bass by adding another ding! The classic two tone sunburst with a gold anodized plate oozes vintage cool. The neck is amazing, with vintage tint satin nitro finish, rolled edges, vintage frets, 7.25" radius, 1.75" nut with vintage reverse tuners. The neck is wider at the nut and the fretboard more curved than modern Precisions, but it feels a lot smaller in the hand than the similar Classic 50s series probably due to the rolled edges. I've not weighed it but it's the lightest P I've ever picked up - apparently they used specially selected lightweight alder for this range. Neck pocket is tighter than a gnat's chuff and also word has it that they use the same pickups as the American Standard. According to reviews, many say that for tone and feel, these are the best P basses that Fender have ever put out! Cheapest I can find online for this is £948. I'm asking for [s]£600[/s] £575 delivered, or [s]£575[/s] £550 if you can pick up (I live near St Neots in Cambs and commute to London).

    Yup - the pickguard from the BB424X should fit. Anything else would have to be custom made, but let me know if you find anywhere that does them! I would like a chrome P-Bass style one piece plate for my BB415.

    Blend is only useful IMHO when using really heavy distortion, like a Bass Big Muff or ODB-3 set to high gain to bring back some clarity and dynamics. Both of these have enough low end by themselves - using a blend to try and bring back lost low end doesn't work that well in my experience! Anyway I imagine they may bring out a souped up version like they did with the B7K if the demand is there!

    The numpty has put a £40 delivery charge on it with Paypal as the only payment method, then goes on to say he doesn't want to post it or use Paypal!

    I've had that kit for almost a year now - one day I will get round to fitting it!
  12. dannybuoy
    Might have to pick one of these up! Disappointed there's no tone control though, which is one of the things that made me return my B3K, hopefully this one isn't as bright. I wonder if the 'era' control just affects the EQ before the clipping section like the 'character' control on the VT Bass.
  13. dannybuoy
    Bear in mind that the results may be skewed by the fact that the real pedal heads only ever look in the effects forums and may not even see this poll!

    Interested in selling or swapping for a roadworn P?
  15. dannybuoy
    I hated the factory strings on my BB415 and found the B to be really floppy - put on a set of Dunlop nickels and have stuck to them ever since!
  16. dannybuoy
    You could also try taking the neck off - Fenders usually have the date stamped on the neck and body, they probably do the same on Squiers.
  17. dannybuoy
    Surely you need an overdrive! Also, I love a wah before fuzz, and prefer an octave after fuzz so try that order out if you haven't done so already!
  18. dannybuoy
    What make is it, do you have a link to the original place you bought it from? Could be interested if it hasn't gone already!
  19. dannybuoy
    Head-Fi is the place to ask, but it appears that somebody already has! http://www.head-fi.org/t/393597/new-se102-is-this-old-e2c-rebranded

    I spent the afternoon yesterday trying out a few sets of flats on my P (I had a few used sets in my box). I've been using LaBella 760FL for a while as they seem to be the standard recommendation - I didn't like them at first as they were quite bright, stiff and sticky, although they got better with age. Tried the Chromes and they had the same issues as the new LaBellas. Then I put the Pyramid Golds on and they are never coming off! They just sound perfect on this Classic 50s P of mine, and are so smooth to the touch that they, to use an overused Talkbass term, 'play like buttah'. Slides are just so effortless and I have the action nice and low - I can't put it down now, and have only done so long enough to write this, and now I'm off again!
  21. dannybuoy
    Glad to see you went for the TIs! Those along with Pyramid Golds are my favourites.

    [quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1357298152' post='1920476'] Bear in mind that the MXR - and indeed the DOD FX25 - are band-pass filters, and as such they are more in need of a clean volume control or a blend control than low-pass filters are. Personally I prefer the sound of low-pass filters on bass. [/quote] Maybe off-topic as it's out of the price range of the OP, but when it comes to blended bandpass vs lowpass, I like the bass wah preset on the Sonuus Wahoo - fixed bandpass at 100Hz with the auto/pedal filter acting on another bandpass in parallel. I prefer the sound of a swept bandpass to a lowpass as it just sounds funkier, but this allows you to do that whilst keeping the lows intact!
  24. dannybuoy
    Apart from the new bells and whistles, does the actual fuzz sound any different to the original? If someone has both, please could you set them to 100% dry and compare the sounds?
  25. dannybuoy
    I perch mine aloft an SVT210AV, and it sounds great!
