  1. I've got one of these basses. Very nice and GLWTS
  2. well I saw them and they were awesome. Great show with great songs. Seal was supporting too. He opened with Crazy and then Killers. Now that's some support
  3. [quote name='M@23' timestamp='1449758135' post='2926561'] I'm still loving mine. Lost count of how many gigs it has been, over 100, and I wouldn't swap them for any other 1x12s. I use a Tone Hammer, but they sound great with most amps. Would love to try one if those Demeters. I used the power amp once and that was pretty special, especially for such a little box. [/quote] yes I spent the day at bass gear with JT and we did a lot of testing using a tone hammer and ampeg pf-500. At the time I wasn't really playing a lot of bass guitar but now I am, as I've replaced our dearly departed bass player who passed away last month. I think I may need to order white tolex cabs, but with a red front and an oxblood grill cloth, to match my green bass strings!!
  4. I heard JT Crossfires pair of S112s at the weekend with a Demeter head. No PA support and the sound absolutely filled the room. Bloody amazing sound. Looks like I'll order a pair early in the new year, although I still want to try the H115
  5. do bass gear have anything JT? I wouldn't mind another trip up there to try the TKS H115
  6. Hey guys, I've asked this before but I'm still looking for this bass. The picture attached is a left handed version that was ordered by a music shop owner in Canterbury, in the late 80s. Big Mart (my boss) is left handed but Jackson managed to build his custom order RIGHT handed. This ended up for sale in Brixton Exchange Mart. Sadly, Big Mart passed away recently and this photo was taken at a memorial gig that we did last week. I'm now playing the bass in this band (I was the singer but now I'm doing both) I would dearly love to find the right handed version that was made by mistake. Has anybody seen it
  7. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1448290903' post='2914183'] Cracking selection of P's there Police Squad. [/quote] Thanks Gary, like yourself, there's been several others over the years, of which I don'y have any pictures but there was a '62, an early USA vintage reissue '62, 2 x late 70s, a Fender Sting re-issue, a JV that Billy Apple now raves about, and I gave a P Bass Lyte to my brother
  8. Finally I'm back to playing bass in a rock band, so I get to use my old P bass. I bought this in 1990 and it's only ever been set up once. It is truly an amazing bass. I originally thought it was a '75 but on closer inspection of the original pickup I think it's a '73 and the backup bass I haul around is this and then there are my 'Police tribute basses'. Firstly the Bravewood replica of Sting's #1 and then there's the MIJ 70's fretless and then there's the self built, 70's red fretless Got to love a P Bass
  9. I saw The Doors Alive and was very impressed. I'm not even a doors fan, but they were great. I also saw an Italian Muse tribute, Well I listened to them as i was having dinner and couldn't actually see them, but they sounded really perfect. They were called Muscle Museum
  10. I've got one of these too. It's mega and has a fab neck. The headstock tint is basically recreating the 70's look. They had a supply of decals that curled up if they sprayed poly laquer on them, so they used nitro only, for the face of the headstock. This turns yellow over time leaving the poly on the neck still clear. Plus I'm a hammers fan and an 'Arry fan too.
  11. [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1444837409' post='2886558'] More importantly how heavy is it [/quote] priceless
