  1. I use this one http://www.screwfix.com/p/lap-mas830b-digital-multimeter-600v/75337?kpid=75337&cm_mmc=Google-_-Product%2520Listing%2520Ads-_-Sales%2520Tracking-_-sales%2520tracking%2520url&gclid=CPe169j-ltMCFUVJGQoduIoJuw&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CIurj9n-ltMCFZeEsgodsfcAIw
  2. Eddie Vedder in June. Tom Petty in July. Stevie Nicks also.
  3. [quote name='pqs' timestamp='1491329642' post='3272206'] I'm seeing Cheap Trick in a couple of months. looking forward to it. [/quote] Me too. Fab band. Seen them twice before and also Tom and Rick doing Surrender with Pearl Jam in New York.
  4. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool PJ player and I couldn't get on with the Aerodyne because: 1. The bound edges are uncomfortable. 2. The stock pups are really weedy. I swapped mine for Fralins and this then brought out the real sound of the bass... 3. The sound of the bass for whatever reason (basswood body perhaps?) didn't click with me. 4. You can't fit an aftermarket bridge without some fettling. The stock bridge is very good though. It looks stunning and has a great neck.
  5. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1491462078' post='3273137'] Update from me: It's the only thing I'm playing. Anyone got an El Toro kicking about?! [/quote] I kinda thought that could happen. The wunkay becoming the wunandonly. El Toro!? They come up for sale every now and then in the same way Halley's Comet comes round occasionally. I'd love one.

    Anyone tried one or got one yet? What do we think? https://youtu.be/Rh0QZJWu6P0
  9. Rich bought my J&D J bass for a friend. Another great basschat transaction. Great comms, great chat. Top bloke and highly recommended.
  10. That's next year's bonus taken care of, then! A JJ config could be very interesting for me.
  11. A classic vintage sounding P pickup that is 11.5k. From the website: [i][color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]This is a faithful reproduction of one of the most famous pickups in the world. It will give a very big and full tone with the slightly hollow grind that the originals are known for. Includes black covers (exposed pole pieces).[/font][/color][/i] Price includes postage 1st Class signed for to UK Mainland - Highlands and Islands extra.

Accurate to late 1960 J Bass coils, the plain enamel wire produces a tighter coil with slightly more output and a more aggressive tone. The bottom-end is extremely defined with fast response to playing dynamics; mids are punchy and solid while the highs are clear with vowel-like reproduction.

  14. As part of a brutal cull, I'm selling this Charvel 2B. It's a fabulous Japanese made bass from 1987. It's got a proper P shape neck, is set up and intonated beautifully with a medium action and has very little fret wear. I bought this from MacDaddy last October and had the pleasure of gigging it with him there in Shepherd's Bush Belushi's. I've used this bass as my main Eb-tuned bass since buying it but it's not set up for 40-100 roundwounds in standard E. It's a sparkly metallic white colour and has aged beautifully. The headstock is dink free and the marks on the body can be seen in the photos. It has a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder (SPB-3 @11.5k) and original Jackson J pickup @ 8.3k. It comes with a hard case which is in excellent condition. I can ship at extra cost, about £20-25 fully insured with a reputable company like DPD. I'll get a quote on request.

  17. Probably the best bang for buck on Basschat at the moment! J&D Jack & Danny 70s J Bass c/w Gear4Music padded gigbag! I bought this bass two and half years ago from a Basschatter to use as a rehearsal room instrument so I could leave it there and go to rehearsals on my bike. We no longer have a permanent rehearsal room so this is now redundant and needs a new home. I'm also thinning the herd. It's absolutely bangin' for the bucks and punches well above its weight, which is 8.8lb. It sounds exactly like a good Jazz should. It has one small chip on the back and a few scratches but this is a very sorted instrument. This has been modified to enhance what is a pretty good instrument off the shelf. Mods are:[list] [*]Full copper shielding and earthing job. [*]KiOgon wiring loom - a high quality wiring loom with screw terminals of solderless change of pickups. Improves the sound over stock installation. [*]A Gotoh-alike high mass bridge improves the sustain over the original. [*]Proper set-up and fret job so the action is low-medium and it plays really nicely with no buzz. Intonation done with a strobe tuner so it's spot on. The aftermarket bridge helps no end. [*]Chrome knobs fitted [*]Replacement Kent Armstrong Bridge Pickup fitted (8.2k), bridge pickup is original J&D (7.7k). [*]Strap buttons are replacements to help it stay on the strap better. [/list] Collection from Gloucester or if you're in London and message me today, I can make it collect from Canary Wharf this week. No postage/shipping as I do not have any suitable packing material.

  18. [quote name='gareth' timestamp='1489780037' post='3259858'] that bit of leather on the back! [/quote] Grim
  19. [quote name='Grahambythesea' timestamp='1489838542' post='3260204'] Is Mac plying one in this photo of wings? [/quote] That's a BB1200. It's single pickup (reverse P), neck-thru, less bling than the BB3000 though same pedigree, just a different price point. There is a BB1600 too, which is similar to the BB3000 however that has a bolt-on neck. The BB2000 was like a BB3000 with a reverse P and less bling. All different flavours of the same excellent concept.
  20. I have a BB1300, two buckers, neck-thru. Same pedigree as this. Quality is excellent, very classy. BB3000 was the flagship Yam for years replaced by the BB202* series.
  21. Nice one. I was very close to buying this. The wunkay is the only bass I have GAS for. It's the only one I've never owned that I have wanted for many years. How versatile and could a wunkay be the wunandonly?
