Hell! - are you the same Tom Android that was the prototype for the The Finglonger Hedonism-Bot made at Santa's Death Fortress on Neptune that went on to serve in The Hover-Bot Death Troopers Infantry? Welcome!

[quote name='Hamster' post='431121' date='Mar 10 2009, 11:19 PM']Isn't $300 for shipping a wee bit excessive? IIRC the last bass I had shipped to me from the US&A was $150 by USPS and was here in 6 days.[/quote] I didn't recall correctly - I've just looked it up and it was $115 fully insured. Even the cheapo SX bass I bought was only $63, and that arrived in 8 days

[quote name='clauster' post='430513' date='Mar 10 2009, 02:14 PM']Its the TSA500 that caught my eye. Any amp with a master gain labled from "pub" to "stadium" is my sort of amp [/quote] I was really beginning to like that - until I saw the £1.5k price tag!

Sweet Child of Mine? - not too hard and your fingers move around a bit!

IIRC they are prone to buzzing problems. There's a fix-it on the Talkbass wiki - [url="http://www.talkbass.com/wiki/index.php/Silencing_the_Noise_on_a_Marcus_Miller_Signature_Bass"]http://www.talkbass.com/wiki/index.php/Sil..._Signature_Bass[/url]

If you put your location in your profile, then people with stuff to sell can see if you're nearby - or they can recommend cheap stuff to you in nearby shops.

Isn't there something about drummer content in the T&C?

The EMMA DiscomBOBulator and EHX Q-Tron are very popular. There are some youtube vid demos of both

I would imagine this guy should be able to help? - [url="http://www.howardsmith.co.uk/"]http://www.howardsmith.co.uk/[/url]

The only drawback is the prices that Pixie luthiers charge for set ups

On second thoughts....... "Drummer" and "outstanding" in the same thread - shouldn't this be in the "drunk" thread?

That would be Jason Sutter

Hi Jon - and Welcome!

I don't know, but if you write to him through his publishers and ask you might get a reply? - [url="http://www.cubesoundtracks.co.uk/composers/Danny_McCormack.html?viewtab=Contact&wlsess=4bb2d96daf412aec"]http://www.cubesoundtracks.co.uk/composers...bb2d96daf412aec[/url]

I know a few people who have used a 36" scale neck and have found the extra stretch involved to have given them tendon trouble. Of course it's cumulative, but see if you can play a 36" scale in a shop for 30mins or so to see if you can cope before you splash the cash.

Hi & Welcome! Some nice looking wood on his bench!
