  1. Could I see a closeup of the pick wear below the G and also the forearm contour ? Assuming it's painted in polyester acrylic rather than nitro ?
  2. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1442868363' post='2870180'] Totally love the wear on the body and if I had the money I would buy it in a heartbeat [/quote] Can I ask how those two scrapes below the G string happen?

  4. That, as father jack would say, would be an ecumenical matter. I'd suggest he is being presumtuous at best
  5. Mostly my beaten-up precision with flats Occasionally a stingray and an acoustic 4 to bang out ideas with people
  6. The jb was bolt on
  7. I saw a sunburst : maple pearl block The RBJ-67 Bass and it looked really good. Action very low indeed - entwistle pups ?
  8. That looks pretty good Needs tort though
  9. [quote name='lowhand_mike' timestamp='1442411436' post='2866774'] cash converters near me has got a MIM fender P for £249, not sure if thats a good price, looks in pretty good nick [/quote] Good price Grab it
  10. [quote name='Waddycall' timestamp='1442085427' post='2864373'] I've always been curious about warwicks. I like the look of the corvette and streamer but there seem to be so many different versions that I wouldn't know if I was getting a good deal or not if I bought used. I guess I could afford a new rock bass version. Trouble with living in Cornwall is it's pretty hard to get anywhere yo try these things out! [/quote] I had a Warwick corvette std active - German model It was dirty and didn't fetch much in eBay so I was lucky there - very nice and recommended
  11. [quote name='the boy' timestamp='1441914765' post='2862985'] Garage band on the iPhone is really useable. Check out this track I made about 2 years ago. It's got it's flaws but it was made completely on an iPhone 4 using GarageBand. https://m.soundcloud.com/theboysings/mama-leave-a-light-on-poor-boy [/quote] Totally amazing
  12. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1441893481' post='2862705'] Fascinating - have you checked whether the bairn can actually have dual nationality? [/quote] She does We had to decide which passport to apply for in order to bring her home We took her back to the same hospital to visit as a one year old - she met her nurses and neonatal clinicians Her name comes from Amelia street, near the hospital in FL
  13. I've got five of these as I bought a few more once I'd tried them. I have imposed my own one p bass limit (gasp) so these have been gathering dust Picture here [url="https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=F1B48FF289BAE6D2!758&authkey=!AOSpE_f2EW-Eb04&v=3&ithint=photo%"]https://onedrive.liv...3&ithint=photo%[/url] Fit my Japanese bitsa and also a mex p bass I once owned but obviously you may need to move a screw slightly -happy to supply measurements upon request £9 to you plus second class postage at cost £2.80 PayPal gift (no fees please) or bank transfer Nb 1. these do not fit a jap 70s closet classic particularly well, (I'm told) - not tried it myself . 2. Matt freeman model has a wide control cavity and reportedly a tiny gap is present but suggest that would also be true of any aftermarket plate 3. Affinity p bass needs slight sanding around neck joint and the pickup moving slightly 4. There is no cutout for the truss rod, but you can easily file one or sand one out with a dremel
  14. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1441891605' post='2862666'] So you're out on parole then? [/quote] In a manner of speaking - partner was pregnant and baby popped out unexpectedly early and was in hospital for quite a while. A fellow citizen of blue's
  15. I do understand - I went to Florida last year for two weeks and got stuck. For two months - saw a whole new side to the U.S.
  16. Number 1 or both if possible
  17. I'm not going to be quite that provocative - round here there are no bass players and I've had lots of offers to play. My relic p bass gets lots of admirers too from those who've seen them but never touched one or consciously heard one (the vicar is a big fan). I may as well have walked in with a balalaika in pink paisley Sadly some of the offers to join are beyond my low ability or repertoire at the moment but it happens often.
  18. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1441635765' post='2860440'] do you want an open mic or a Jam session, the Hop Pole is mostly open mic, I think the one Kev B mentioned are Jam sessions [/quote] Either really - happy to try both. Dont get much opractice time at home although partner happy to give me night off for OM nights at church
  19. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1441625386' post='2860310'] the Hop Pole have one on 2 Fridays per month [/quote] Thanks - chap in cross play next mentioned the hop pole
  20. Can anyone recommend one in Beeston area? Likely to be moving in near future
  21. Did you tell them to get funked?
  22. I'm Planning to sell my classic 50s p pickup soon - is that of interest ?
  23. [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1441536934' post='2859549'] Most of the open mics in my neck of the woods are predominantly acoustic and there's not a bass in sight. [/quote] Yep definitely the ONLY bass player in the village at my local one.
  24. I've had one of these (back in the dark days of six string evilness ) - quality item
