    Cool, looking forward to checkin' it out!

    I thought that R shape might have been a reflection from the 'slap cut' on the body of a TRB. The top looks contoured a bit like an Aria though so not sure now. Perhaps it is a custom build?

    Yeah I listened to some of their stuff, they sounded quite good. Warwicks definitely have a nice 'clack' to them too, I am not sure what the best ingredients are for that sound but I think it has to be a mix of a straight stiff neck, low action, soft body and pickups near the sweet spot. Cheers ped

    LOl. I think my house has concrete foundations, but have heard of cowboys using all sorts!

    Hehe awesome. You need to get that slant on your house fixed!

    Yamaha TRB I think

    It does lend itself to that sound very nicely - I use wimpy thin strings too so all in all it is quite effortless to play. I like it so that when you dig in, it sounds almost like a slap. hard to describe. I normally play with a light touch so any variation in plucking technique is amplified massively, and of course, mistakes really stand out and make me look even more of a bender than usual. Cheers ped

    Yeah I am going to sort a poll soon, need to establish how I am going to go about organising the higher volumes first. Watch this space! ped P.s we need a thread of people posing/gigging in their BC gear!!

    Ah brill. Glad you like it. The print quality is apparently quite good too, should last a while!

    Great stuff guys! Four out of Sixteen isn't bad for Royal Mail, eh ;0) Cheers ped

    Personally, 4. I normally drop my E to D and this sounds much better on a 4 than playing a 5er to D.

    I love this sound. I have my action extremely low and no relief in my neck so that when I dig in I get a bit of 'clack'. My sound otherwise is quite smooth and a bit of clack really helps define the bottom end. Watch my 'demo' video on my websh*te (link in sig) for my interpretation of the sound. I don't like basses with higher action because I find them harder to play and I can't get that sound if I dig in, it just goes 'buh' Cheers! ped

    Hehe you know what - I listened to it on my laptop and didn't realise there was bass in it because of these speakers!! I will have another listen later!! ped

    I like it too mate, sounds great. You should still be able to pan yourself in Mono, but stereo will give your reverbs and so on a bit of room to breathe, but not really any need most of the time. Nice tune though man, really good. ped

    Hi Bob - would be very interested to see some pics of the home build. We have quite a few DIY enthusiasts here, too. Have a look in the 'Build Diary' forum. Cheers ped

    I was just about to say the same, or Robbie at RIM; I remember him talking about sourcing some rods for himself. Cheers ped

    How bad exactly is the brassware? Is it not something you could do with some brasso and cotton tipped buds etc? I use 'Peek' metal cleaner on my fretless bass neck (brass/zinc mix) and it comes up beautifully. Cheers ped

    Hehe naah its a pleasure. It's my way of thanking everyone on BC for being so great! Group hug! ped

    There is almost TOO MUCH choice to be honest so narrowing it down to 3 or 4 that everyone will like is hard. The best thing is for me to make batches of different things and sell them as and when, until I can organise an automated shop where items are made to order, but this will mean the T shirts are more expensive. £16 posted means no profit for me and just about break even, which is what I am trying to aim for. Low prices and good gear... Cheers ped

    The latter mate. Not final yet but think it would look pretty cool. Cheers]ped

    XXL is 47-49 inches. Will probably go with the 4 designs mentioned next otherwise things will get rather complicated. I can't see XXXL sizes but will ask about it. Cheers ped P.s Poll is coming soon so you can register your interest there.

    Used to use Elites Player series strings but now sold on Elixirs - current set over a year old and sound new when compared to a brand new set of Elites ( a little test I did a month or so ago to make sure I wasn't deceiving myself!) ped

    OK dudes, black with orange print white ribbed with black with black print, long sleeve black with grey sleeves and orange print caps/beanies ....will all be available soon. I will just set up a poll so people can pre-order items when I am sure of what I will buy. Cheers ped

    Hehe. I am lucky enough to have found 'the one (fretted and fretless, ahem)' so I don't think I will buy another bass, to be honest! This means I have a bit of money for the first time ever and can waste money on other expensive hobbies!! Cheerz pedro
