  1. Could you post up images of the whole bass please...front and back. Cheers P
  2. I've got one of these. Strung BEAD; solid as anything.
  3. OK...Darren has confirmed. I'll bring my Waterstone Tom Petersson12-string bass too unless Warwickhunt has bought it by then P
  4. Pencil me in. I'm going to see whether I can make it...if so I'll bring two or three thunderbirds and my Ashdown/Hartke stuff. As an aside, I know a great drummer (Darren Oliver-Jones of Basingstoke based 'My Never Time') who will almost definitely handle some of the drum duties. P
  5. I downloaded a 10 day trial of the Ampeg SVX plug in earlier today. It's really pretty impressive. I've generally recorded Sansamp BDDI>PreSonus>PC but quality of recording is dependent on so many factors. I've done a little experimenting this afternoon and it sounds pretty awesome, so much so that I'll probably buy the software and not try and find a crack for it. (Joking.) So many variables. Highly recommended. P
  6. It's OK...I just see 'neck' and 'dive' in threads and it get's my heckles up a bit! The benefits of playing Thunderbirds (lack of body weight, slender neck, that tone, the uber cool shape, the magical ability of it being able to transform me into a lithe 20-something), by far outweighs any issue with diving of the neck. Most people who talk about neck dive probably haven't even touched a TB. It saddens me. P
  7. I tire somewhat of the whole neckdive argument thing and I play Thunderbirds. Yes, the Waterstone is a tad neck heavy - it's heavy anyway - but when I do play it, I'm playing it, not throwing a JC arms wide-open stance waiting for gravity to take over. It's a very comfortable bass...I use a 3" wide Levys strap and it's fine. Mr Warwickhunt. Shoot me a PM sir and we'll see if we can sort out a deal of some sort. P
  8. I've got a Waterstone Tom Petersson 12-string...it really sounds the dogs if you can control it...the secret seems to be having a pair of rigs - guitar and bass - running it through a crossover highs into the guitar side, lows into the bass side. I get a fairly decent tone running it through a small Rolls crossover, into a Sansamp and then into my amp, but straight into the amp I find the sound too ringy and unusable. I've toyed with selling it several times (there's still an old ad up on the For Sale section)...it spends more time in the spare room than it should, which is a crying shame...it just doesn't fit with anything I'm doing musically. Shame. P
  9. I'm no Fender fan, but are you mental? Get rid of the fretless! P
  10. Earlier tonight was made aware of this and it made me a little weak at the knees. Quite lovely! P http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=hkiLQo1fa30 Ack! How do I post a You Tube link?
  11. You local to me? Reading. I'd really like to see how they play. P
  12. Anyone on here (still) got one of these? They're ticking all the right boxes for me at the moment... P
  13. Too soon for another TB!! I've had a super heavy round of monetary commitments over the last few months...I have a handful of basses/guitars I would need to shift/trade first. I've aleady got four Gibson TBs [i]and [/i]a Hamer FBIV; I've promised myself a vintage sunburst model at some stage. P
  14. Gary...hold on to it for now. If I go to a 4U I'll source a short one. P
  15. You have three of the reverse Fernandes now?? Jeepers. How's my rack holding up? P
  16. Doug starts about 16 minutes. Refers to 'some English dude' when talking about his Spector basses. Gary? P [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HqtWkpC6J8&feature=youtu.be[/media]
  17. We went in to Trumpet Voluntary. Interestingly, first dance (I am no dancer), was 'Walk Forever By My Side' by The Alarm. P
  18. I had the 300 watt version. Loud, but not quite loud enough. The 600 should be mental. Cetera ran one for a while. Shoot him a PM. It's effectively Sansamp RBI and RPM plus a power amp. What's not to like? P
  19. It's OK...me and Carl know each other pretty well. He's an awesome guitarist. P
  20. Carl...you kill me. Here and elsewhere! Five isn't enough. I'll take it off you when you're doen with it. P
