    He stored it away in the 1980s because he thought it would make a great investment? Now there's a man with a very serious crystal ball!

    I wondered the same. Also wondered what sort of vocal range this singer might offer ... could be a solution to the perennial 'Robert Plant problem'. Incidentally, on the whole 'does it matter?' thing, I believe it does when the advert chooses to be up front about it. If this person didn't think it matters, then they wouldn't mention it.

    Mind you, if I'd paid £770 for a Squier bass, I would expect it to stand toe-to-toe with 'fancier' brands. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FENDER-SQUIRE-62-PRECISION-JV-BASS-EXCELLENT-CONDITION-WITH-TWEED-CASE/292498030689?hash=item441a3dc061:g:enkAAOSw5NJaiXFT

    For me it's all about scale length. I'm not happy with a 34" low B, and yes, I do know that good ones do exist. It's just that I haven't really found one. Now 35" low B is a whole nuther thang, and it immediately means that Mike Lull, Lakland and MTD are all in the frame. My main squeeze? http://s1128.photobucket.com/user/h4ppyjack/library/Basses CURRENT/Mike Lull T5 2014 CURRENT

    Do you think that girl realises that you can see her knickers? Should have worn a slip ...

    If you can cope with the weight (I couldn't - too old ) then this is all the bass you'll ever need. I had two of 'em. If they were 1kg lighter then they would still be my go-to basses.

    Isn't this the one John developed for Alan Cringean (ACG Basses)? If so, then you can't go far wrong with it. I've had several of John's preamps over the years, and never a problem yet. As a Precision whore, I'm particularly fond of the P-Retro.

    Be careful when the drums go Ba-Dum Tish!

    Just steer clear of the famous cello joke, dear.

    I'm really not sure that apology is sufficient, y'know.

    Chaps, he wants £20 for it. Life's too short ...

    I'll check with H&S whether the AC is OK ASAP. HTH.

    One pot-code to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them. Bwahahahahahaha!!! If you want to go into any more detail than this, could I suggest an MRI scan?

    The cardboard shim is glued in place, so I gave up trying to (gently) remove it.

    That's tone aluminium, that is ...

    I forgot to show you my bottom. OK, that's enough toilet humour for one day.

    I'm a big fan of feedback exterminators, destroyers, suppressors, and anything else the manufacturers can find in Roget's Thesaurus. But following a major change of direction in all matters PA, I no longer need three of the buggers! These are fire & forget units, no need for real-time intervention during a gig, or even during the setup frankly. Just switch it on and wait five seconds while it identifies the problematic frequencies in the venue. This one is in very fine condition, no issues or problems.

    We've all done it. Bought a piece of kit especially for our new project, and then had the project bellyflop. I've had this for two years and it's, essentially, brand new. It's done several test sessions in the studio, one actual gig (NYE 2016 since you ask), and ... erm ... that's it. A complete change of direction in all things PA means that I will not have another need for this, so it's time to go. A couple of trivial scuff marks from being put in a rackcase (once) and removed from that rackcase (once). New price has now dropped to £159, this is as new, so I've knocked over one third off. https://www.studiospares.com/Studio-Gear/Crossovers/ART-CX310-Crossover_325920.htm

    "Other Musically Related Items? You're 'avin' a giraffe!" Well no I'm not. This is essential equipment for any music studio. I bought these stools from Snob's Custom Shop on the Hanger Lane Gyratory maybe 10 years ago, when I still rode a Buell. That's why they don't say Fender or Gibson on them. One has a small but irritating slash (maybe 2" long) on the seat. The other has a much smaller split on the edge of the seat. I no longer need them and they have years of useful like ahead of them so they're not going to the tip! Collection only from HA1 3RG. No, I won't wait in all day in case your courier bothers to show up. Not for £20!
