  1. Does anyone know of a UK source for a green Trace Elliot decal.I'm currently renovating my 4x10 cabinet,which is in a sorry state,so I've given the grille a couple coats of black gloss,but the badge is a disgrace.I do believe I've seen adhesive decals somewhere,but I've tried the 'Bay and other places but to no avail.Anybody??Thanx.
  2. 1:"Ring my Bell" by Anita Ward 2:"Do you really want to hurt me" by Culture Club.This bassline is actually quite complex,if you listen closely.
  3. Thanx for that Steve.Ok guys it's £210 posted.Cash by bank transfer.Lets hear you! Stop press..Paypal up and running again.I'm getting there.£200 posted.
  4. No? OK lads.I don't blame you actually.I guess it must look a little suss to some of you.Thanx for showing some interest anyway.If any of you are still interested,I've decided to bite the bullet and accept a Bank Transfer.I suppose every penny that goes in there helps to soothe a rather irate Bank Manager!Cheers!
  5. Ok men FYI.I need cash.Simple and as basic as that.The Credit Crunch (whoever thought that up?)has got me firmly and squarely by the balix.I don't want banks or even Paypal involved.Thats why I need cold hard cash in my grubby little mitts.Normally I would have no problem with Paypal.Just so's you know.
  6. Here she is guys.The little attachment on the rear of the headstock is,I believe,a pick holder[attachment=22807:Squier4pics_001.jpg][attachment=22808:Squier4pics_002.jpg][attachment=22809: Squier4pics_003.jpg][attachment=22810:Squier4pics_004.jpg][attachment=22811:Squier4pics_007.jpg] Sorry for the poor quality pics.Also,I would never dream of asking anyone to put money in an envelope and send it.I was referring to Special delivery,or Registered Post.My apologies for the misleading statement.Postage would be around £12.Thanks guys.
  7. Hi guys.It is with great sorrow that I must sell my lovely VM Jazz bass.It was bought on this very forum last September from the venerable Steve Soar,but now has to go.The bass is in lovely condition and has been well cared for,both by Steve and myself.It has had an Artec pre-amp fitted which gives Treble/Bass boost /cut,blend,and master volume.The bass also has a Gotoh bridge fitted as a replacement. The bass hardly gets used now and spends nearly all it's time in it's case in the wardrobe,so maybe some of you guys could make better use of it.Will come with gig bag and strap.Looking £200 ONO and I must specify now that I would require the cash to be sent AS CASH to my home,no banks or paypal I'm afraid. So there you go.Will post pics ASAP.
  8. I got a BEQ700 Equalizer pedal and a V-Tone BDI21 amp modeler for sale.Both for £35 posted.(ONO).Both in as new condition,Very rarely gigged.Paypal accepted.
  9. Just sold a P Bass lookalike to Frank.Very pleasant transaction.Nice bloke.Great wheels!
  10. Guys,I need to sell this.It's not what it looks like ie a genuine P Bass,but it certainly would pass for one.It's in lovely nick,very clean and blemish free.The neck is unmarked and it's strung with flats,can't remember what make.Headstock has been (ahem) suitably redesignated.I'm looking £80 posted,but open to near offers.[attachment=19805:The_boys_012.jpg][attachment=19804:The_boys_007.jpg] Sold pending collection.
  11. That Aussie TV clip-That the first time I ever heard her speak.Why did Prisoner:Cell Block H suddenly spring to mind?
  12. My grandson,Delbert.I used to sing this song years ago in a covers band and just presumed there was a bassline because Phil was playing bass on TOTP.I just never really noticed it's absence before.I still love the arrangement tho'.
  13. I was just watching Guitar heroes on BBC4 and Thin Lizzy were on doing Whisky in the Jar.I couldn't make out a definite bassline.I listened again and all I could hear was guitar,drums,Hammond organ and vocals.Am I mistaken,or has anyone else noticed this.I mean Phil was there,playing a Plexiglass Dan wotsisname,but I couldn't hear any bass.Am I going mad????
  14. Did anyone notice the Fender 5 string being played by Alan Price's bassist.Not many of them about.Ace Kefford's bass seemed to have a slight mod around the top bout.
  15. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120350022353&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dm37%26satitle%3D120350022353%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...y0%3D%26fvi%3D1[/url] Yeah,I like the way he says that you can confirm the sound of the bass by looking at the pictures Clever or wot???
  16. We like to do "I've been away" by the Who.It's in waltz time.Usually for when someone asks for a Who number and they're expecting 'my Generation' or suchlike.We usually do that next,just to keep them happy.
  17. Also.the solid black colour on the body cutaway usually indicates a plywood body,bu I also think that the 'G' machine head doesn't quite fit.It seems to be overhanging the end of the headstock.
  18. [quote name='marcus bell' post='341582' date='Dec 1 2008, 12:34 AM']hi, im thinking about this option, so what knobs did you use for the double layer pot??? thanks marcus[/quote] Again Marcus,Ebay came to the rescue.Look under 'Dual concentric' in 'knobs'(oo-er missus).They come in 'short' and 'tall' versions.I used the tall one.
  19. I did it to my Squier VMJ.I used an ARTEC SE2A unit off Ebay.It gives you a blend control,treble and bass boost/cut,and master volume.Much better tonal range than the standard set up.You will need to route out a cut out on the back for the battery box,but thats it.8 solder connections in all,and all for around £30.Check it out.
  20. Sorry.It's on SKY TV.Channel 378.Lots of live unknown bands(most of the time).
  21. Today on ROCKWORLD TV,I caught no more than about 15 seconds of a black female soul vocalist being backed solely by a guy playing a Jazz bass.He was playing some nice bluesy chords and stuff,nothing too elaborate.Anybody catch it?
  22. Any chance of elaborating on option 2 BOD??I'm not completely clear on that.
