    I did get this happen once (mind you I've only played live twice) and it was from a guitard who told me I "sounded immense" (playing a stingray clone on flatbed through a small ampeg combo). Everyone was clapping along so it can't have been too far out. Told said guitard that I'd made loads of errors but he hadn't noticed apparently

    Pretty much gas free I do hanker for a fiver once in a while but usually stop myself realising that I don't devote enough time/get enough time to practice anyway . I have a precision, acoustic and a stingray clone and it's enough One day I will try fretless, eub, fiver etc Mind you a really big stack would massively annoy my teenage son...

    Sounds like you're doing ok to me

    [quote name='Mykesbass' timestamp='1428330880' post='2740275'] That really takes some beating, for someone to go through an audition and then walk off with stuff, beyond belief. Too late to go to the police now, but would be interesting to see if he is actively looking for a band - could set up another audition with a fake band and a mate's phone number and see if he applies?! Does the GK just take standard power cables? I could stick you one in the post as I have a couple of spares. [/quote] Put up a fake ad and see if he tries again ? Then you can make him a sandwich (hint of knuckle)

    [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1428317158' post='2740086'] Just had a look, these are Wizard Hammer pickups, link to the (now Hot Rod) blurb below: http://www.hotrodguitarparts.com/jb-hammer-jazz-bass-pickup-569-p.asp [/quote] If I wasn't moving house and there was no three bass rule, I'd be mentioning encroaching birthdays... Sorry

    As Kate bush said, "don't give up" If it's not shifting it just means the right person hasn't seen it yet at a price they like
  7. Geek99
    I've had several and wouldn't change them unless they were broken or defective in some serious way
  8. Geek99
    They are just being ambitious Never give up. Never.

    A very nice fender jazz 75 reissue cij Natural with rosewood board and pearl blocks

    A slice of washing-up sponge works fine
  13. Geek99
    having played both, I'd say there isnt a lot in it, especially not enough to justify the more-than-double price jump
  14. Geek99
    Yes mine was fine so suggest strings at a lighter gauge also
  15. Geek99
    What about a special section for music hardware ?

    [quote name='Wonky2' timestamp='1426722099' post='2721372'] I'm a bass player but play guitar also... Never in a band though ..... I'm fairly proficient but I stick to what I know in terms of a band environment. [/quote] Me also. I dont see how noticing what a guitard is doing and being able to think about it for a moment and do something appropriate, rather than rely on your ear when he's done it, can possibly be a bad thing. No one is asking you to actually touch one of the evil skinny-string things...

    [quote name='dodgnofski' timestamp='1426698461' post='2720990'] Thank you, it's not an abrasion - it's where the paint has 'flaked off', the bare wood is unmarked, so it could be the grain you are seeing. No idea why the paint is flaking, it' was like that when I got her [/quote] Dont be sad, i absolutely love the look and if i had the spare cash (ie no children to support) i would be beating the door down

    Beautiful Love the natural relic, can you tell me how the abrasions on front by the top horn happen ? Curious

    [quote name='bassus_play' timestamp='1426510168' post='2718586'] Do you have any info about the year / specs? [/quote] Only from my memory - no paper copy It would have been about 1990; there was white, black, sunburst, and pink (as in girlie pink) There is an owners club on Facebook-did you know ?

    NBD (kinda)

    Geek99 replied to stubass's topic in Bass Guitars

    That's a hot looking pair (second time I thought that today)
  22. Geek99
    Nice Like the sunburst one and a good starter bass I'd say

    [quote name='Woodinblack' timestamp='1425907366' post='2712015'] Damn you - I came on this thread to say just that! [/quote] Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Snoozer = loser
  24. Geek99
    look under the nearest rock ?
  25. Geek99
    I cut about two inches off and wind what remains, exiting at the bottom of the capstan, so pretty much like you
