Nice one Ralph! Like the fuzz

We could bash out an alt-folk version of Nutrocker if you wanted? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Op2U-qGUDkg

If you are not in Basingstoke (watching the Jetsonics) but are in London , come and see us!

I find it slightly disturbing, Rev, that your 50's DB is called Jayne, that being my wife's name (with the unusual letter 'y' in the middle)!

This Friday we are on some time after 10pm with a 45min set

OT but worth it: http://cms.springboard.gorillanation.com/embed_iframe/2653/video/772303/what003/whatculture.com/5

The New Rutles

Nice looking beastie. The bridge is cut very oddly and should have a rounded sweep where the strings cross. For a good luthier check this thread http://basschat.co.uk/topic/204959-db-luthiers-thread/ Fraid I don't recognise those strings. Maybe some kind of Innovation given the end multi-coloured silks? Someone round here will know (ubassman)?

Might make my double bass a bit more portable too

Unless you can prove the pub gave that very note to you, they could reasonably deny all knowledge and counter that you were trying to pass it off on them. Sadly, I think you've been done Jack. At least you're Happy

Vintage & Rare in Denmark Street

[size=4]They added some basses to the new arrivals page only 3 days ago, so I guess its just a problem with the telephone line. Try emailing, they generally respond in a few hours in my experience[/size]

Hoping to get along to this, as I believe is Nige/xilldx. Any other BC'ers fancy hooking up?

ROCK! Nice colour Sean. IIRC older Ricks are recommended to use TI Flats (they being best tension wise for the idiosyncratic necks and truss rods - I got this from the * hushed voice * [i]Rick forum[/i] * oops I said it)

Early 80's 62 reissue in seafoam green - never seen one in this colour before. Looks mint (groan). Seriously beautiful but surely at least £500 (if not £1000) over-priced? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1986-Fender-Jazz-Bass-Seafoam-Green-62-Reissue-Stack-Knob-/400659847515?pt=Gitarren&hash=item5d4930195b

Its the same bass and seller

Loved them back in the day, esp their debut album Affectionate Punch. My very first band (1979-82) used to cover A matter of gender. Such a tragedy that Billy Mackenzie committed suicide

Bought a DB pickup from Harry. All good! Cheers mate

should work with any barrel jack as long as you specify the size (eg neutrik locking barrels are larger in diameter and need the bigger plastic loop whereas a standard Switchcraft type barrel needs the smaller loop) Bassace uses Underwood pickups and nmakes his own equivalent to the Lando clamp. See here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/204392-jack-socket-attachment-to-db-tailpiece/page__p__2124394__hl__clamp__fromsearch__1#entry2124394"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/204392-jack-socket-attachment-to-db-tailpiece/page__p__2124394__hl__clamp__fromsearch__1#entry2124394[/url]

Let them know its for a Shadow as they do two different sized plastic loops, depending on jack barrel type. Incidentally they actually do a neat mod for a Shadow (if you look on their website) and put a proper Switchcraft jack on.

this? [url="http://www.kontrabass-atelier.de/pickups_e.html#clamp"]http://www.kontrabass-atelier.de/pickups_e.html#clamp[/url] Or BC'er Roger (username bassace) makes a neat version with a wingnut and plastic clamp for not very much moolah
