@tom1946 Got laid off this afternoon so PM me your address and I'll make a template for you tomorrow. You should have it by the weekend.

Thomann aren't stupid, the basic models like the PB-20 & JB-20 are perfectly acceptable basses. If they were crap there's the risk folk would just give up,that means no further business. By offering a nice bass for peanuts chances are the learner will stick with it and maybe buy their upgrade from Thomann. I much preferred the full scale PB-20 to the Squier Affinity P-bass.

93%. Stripey Mustang/Musicmaster type thing got me.

Thanks Donny but I reckon I've enough of them.

Sunday night I was at the Alice Cooper show in Glasgow. Missed The Tubes and most of The Mission. The bass player Chuck Garric had a busy night, Halo of Flies was epic performance. About an hour in I spotted a thin dark haired fella in shades behind the curtain and was certain I'd glimpsed a spangly bass. Had no idea Dennis Dunaway,Neal Smith and Michael Bruce were doing the Reunion segment outside the US. What was already a brilliant gig just got better.

@Phil_T I never use the buttons either. There's a marked increase in volume using the silver box Behringer instead of just plugging into the mixer. Since I mainly play a single coil P-bass with flats I appreciate the kick in volume,

@Sibob Naw. Too late I bought the silver Behringer for £15 s/h ages back. @Phil_T Were you using the - 20Db pad buttons ?

@Sibob If I'd known about the Orchid for £36 I'd have bought one :-)

Behringer Ultra DI 100. £30,built like a tank,no preamp just a DI box. Needs a battery unless there's phantom power involved. http://www.music-group.com/Categories/Behringer/Signal-Processors/DI-Boxes/DI100/p/P0062

Had the Kay EB100. Terrible thing !!

When the hell did Thomann sell them ?? I'm certain it's never been listed in the last 3-4 year.

[quote name='Vinny' timestamp='1509811961' post='3401826'] I think I sold it to someone in the west country, as if that matters. [/quote] This one came from Bodmin,Cornwall so there's a slim chance it was yours

Had a feeling these would be tied in with the Peavey/Jack Daniels stuff. Sure as fate they are. Look at the back of the packet on these acoustic strings. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Jack-Daniels-Acoustic-Guitar-String-10S-Set-with-Free-Shipping/122748075675?hash=item1c945afe9b:g:rUsAAOSw53NY~mKT

Alice Cooper next Sunday.

Made a list of mine last night. In 36 year I've managed to own 99 basses When I hit 100 I'll post the list but careful thinking is needed,be a shame if the century bass was a £20 beater

It's Peavey time again but for a change it's acoustic Peavey time First off I know absolutely nothing about this bass. There's a purple Peavey Aberdeen somewhere in the UK,it was owned by Ken Achard when he was MD for Peavey UK. As Ken's was the only 1 I was aware of I thought the Aberdeens were a range of acoustic guitars and they'd built a bass version just for Ken. Not so !! I now know of 3 others (including this one) I'm guessing it has a mahogany neck,back and sides with a spruce top.and I'm thinking a Far Eastern origin. The preamp is an Artec ASE-4 with a Peavey logo and kinda nice wooden veneer. It's a 34" scale and the nut width is 42mm. Just picked up a set of La Bella tapes for it as I'm not too keen on the rounds.

Last bass on the bucket list is a Vigier. This thread is not helping GAS,it's definitely not indigestion I'm feeling just now

8 hours after my complaint about only1 tuner,they reply saying "very sorry, there's one on the way " Currently opening can of alphabetti spaghetti so I can eat my words about the £2 refund

Thought my 2 arrived last month. Opened up the envelope last night but there was only one in there Expect Reverb will just offer me the £2 refund

Some fella called Hadrien Feraud is playing one of his other models in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swp6unWYLag Background noise is terrible. Bit more about the man on the Russian guitar player forum. https://forum.guitarplayer.ru/index.php?topic=223276.0 If you use Chrome right click and choose "translate to English". Must be loads of fellas working in East Europe we never hear of,still kicking myself for passing on the Polish Langowski earlier this year.

Hey folks. Is there anybody near Bodmin ? Bass on Gumtree and while I'm waiting on word from seller regarding courier I'd like to have other options. Would involve collecting and couriers. TIA
