  1. If I was going he could have borrowed my Ag500 and DB112's. Must be someone in Manchester area that could lend him something for the day? I remember reading about Vic Wooten arriving somewhere and his basses were held in customs. Fodera emailed their dealers and players and came up with a loan bass for him (it was a Fender though I think!).
  2. Nice one Nick, I have a '72 that I really like. Has yours got the narrow J width nut?
  3. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1320522112' post='1428014'] Barrie.. you have a tonne of 4 strings.. [/quote] True - but it's always fun to try more, lol.
  4. Ah - the lovely Mill Hill Studios. I've spent many a night rehearsing there with my old 11 piece soul band. Have they fixed the electrics yet, I seem to remember one of the owners electrocuting himself once!
  5. Had some trade offers but nothing concrete yet kinda bump . . .
  6. I've heard great things about Suhr guitars. My guitarist has a pair of Guthrie Govan Signature models that are really nice. I'm assuming from the first post that you're only interested in 5 string trades?

    Pictures?
  8. Wow - had a blast on this at some volume this afternoon, it really is powerful and a bit of tweaking the EQ gives it amazing heft in the lower registers & then loads of snap & sizzle at the top
  9. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1320419905' post='1426697'] It says in the tag 'old series from 1999', Barrie [/quote] Ah ha - I was reading on an iPhone & the tags are tinier than a very tiny thing indeed!
  10. Really sorry to hear this Darren Might be worth having a stock list you could mail to people with prices as I think not all the stuff listed on your web site is currently in stock.
  11. Just realised I replied to the wrong thread as this has been relisted recently. I think it is the one from the Gallery, listed there at £1,800 and I think offered to BC'ers at £1,400.
  12. How old is it?
  13. Are you sure it's 32"? Not that it makes a huge difference but I seem to remember seeing one of these that was a 33"?
  14. [quote name='Mickb1773' timestamp='1320396522' post='1426198'] Any Interest in my Pedulla 5 up for sale/trade at the moment ot is just one string too many Barrie All the best, Mick. [/quote] Thanks Mick but I'm a strictly 4 string guy these days
  15. Back in my hands & back up for sale! Apologies for the laziness in using an old post but all the details are the same apart from Jon's excellent handiwork. New fretboard lacquer & refret plus set up by Jon Shuker - looks & plays great

    How much?

    I sold a CIJ fretless for about £400 I think (I really can't remember if it was an RI model or not though!).
  17. [quote name='eubassix' timestamp='1320137077' post='1422638'] ... intriguing Barrie - the first (only other?!) one I recall seeing was in the old 'Bass Cellar' in Denmark St. [/quote] Funnily enough because I'd only ever seen one in red I just assumed it was the 'standard' colour, lol. I'd even been talking about these with Phil at BassGear just the other week and saying that i thought they looked really cool with that white binding. I seem to remember they were originally made for Mike Rutherford because he wanted a Steinberger but didn't get on with the 'cricket bat' design models.
  18. I saw that BassGear in Twyford have just had a shipment of these in - will definitely try to get over there & try them out soon!
  19. I remember playing one exactly like this at the old Bass Centre in Wapping. Really liked it at the time and was very close to buying it - eventually settled on a Kubicki because it just 'worked' better for me at the time (even though it was a fair bit more expensive). I'd love to have another go on one to see if it's as nice as I remember
  20. Spoke to Phil at BassGear earlier this evening and there are still some tickets going for this. Given that they are free and it's very rare to get a builder with the class of Jens Ritter over here in London it would be good to see some more BC'ers coming out for the evening
  21. Any time Good price for one of these, in immaculate condition, as well - great little starter bass & sonic blue is a great stage colour too
  22. I'm sooooo tempted to order a full custom build Fodera Monarch 4 - have a call booked with them next week to discuss body woods, top wood, fingerboard, pickups, pre-amp etc. Really looking forward to talking about what I want in terms of sound & feel and how they might be able to go about building this for me
  23. Unearthed some pics of PT live with Jamiroquai playing the Fodera NYC5. Looks pretty cool to me!
  24. [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1319839015' post='1419317'] Been a fan for a long time. It was the segue from "Undercover Man" into "Scorched Earth", on 'Godbluff', which first trapped me. Guy Evans, what a great drummer. And Peter Hammill's solo stuff is up there with the best of them. 'Sitting Targets' is a hugely underrated album. I always sort of thought VdGG were an interesting version of Genesis, who I found very bland and noodly. [/quote] I still love Godbluff and play it fairly often. Can't really pick a favourite track these days but as an impressionable tenager I think Scorched Earth was probably the one that stood out the most: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQbfNZOH0Ag
  25. I had a real Gong 'thing' going for a while around '75, perfectly timed for the Shamal era Saw Sham '69 at Reading Festival in '78 and Steve Hillage appeared out of nowhere to solo over the top of their final number whilst surrounded by a stage full of skinheads. They didn't know whether to lamp him one or stand well back because he was too much of a freak for them
