  1. [quote name='itsmedunc' timestamp='1475703936' post='3148174'] No pics yet? [/quote] Here you go! So, great condition for a guitar that's over 20 years old. There are a few minor dings, but nothing that I can photo. I've added the black scratch plate (original white plate included in sale). Also I had the neck slimmed, its still a Tele neck, but less of a club. There is a bit of wear on the bottom edge - shown in photo - but this makes it more comfortable as the edge is rounded and doesn't stick in your arm.
  2. Pointy headstock that is still pointy. Upgraded with a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder and comes with a hard case. A tad of mojo on the bottom - I've tried to show in the pic. An amazingly well preserved over 20 years old, made in Japan Charvel.
  3. Isn't Oxford known for its well regarded university? Oxford Brookes.
  4. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1476521251' post='3154909'] I`m similar Dave, have an MiM and two US Standards and the US are noticeably better, in as you say, sound, feel and general quality. I`ve added the same pickup to my MiM and a hi-mass bridge to get it as near to the US as I can, and these have pushed it nearer, but the US still feels more substantial underhand. [/quote] maybe some kind of blind test is in order for the next Bass bash?
  5. Ola! MacWifey and I are gonna be in Sao Paulo next year. Post a link to your bands website and we might get to a gig [size=4] [/size]
  6. check out the back of the store by the bins. Bet you'll find something.
  7. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1475532790' post='3146788'] They are headlining at WGW this year. [/quote] who, Sisters of Mercy? Eldritch was always particularly scathing about WGW when they have been previously asked to do it.
  8. nobody [i]needs [/i]a P bass, but they are a sort of right-of-passage. With a P, you are not buying a bass, you are buying the rock n roll dream, and Fender's history and heritage. Regardless of what is played now, most people seem to have had one. Probably just due to the ubiquity of the instrument though.
  9. [quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1476117936' post='3151489'] You could try putting it on the back of the headstock - you can still read it, but the punters can't see it. [/quote] I've started to do that since the last gig.
  10. How are you getting on with the neck?
  11. At the SE Bass Bash they had the 'new' shape Wal's. Surprisingly non-fugly.
  12. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1476093070' post='3151095'] Me too, I hope it's quite furious! [/quote] if it's just 'mildly miffed' I'm gonna be well disappointed!
  13. Dare I suggest the Future Impact? Pricey, but apparently worth it. There's a thread somewhere with the demo sounds etc.
  14. yup eagerly waiting for the 'anger' review.
  15. [quote name='paul h' timestamp='1473760089' post='3132783'] Specifically listening to band homework... [/quote] same here, but all originals.
  16. Update from Jon: [color=#000000][font=sans-serif][size=1]The body is all sorted now, i’ve just started get the shielding sorted, so electrics over the next few days. I’ve got a bit more to do on the neck which i’ll be doing this coming week too. I’ve had a bit of a restricted 2 weeks or so with ‘students’ in, a course the week before last, returning students for three days last week and 3 days again this week, but i shall crack on![/size][/font][/color]
  17. If a band are playing in a pub, for me, that's a reason to go in. If the band are crap, that's a reason for me to leave.
  18. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1475842013' post='3149140'] No worries ... just waiting for a decent one to appear. [/quote]
  19. Too many strings, but I like it. but not at £750.
  20. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1475841654' post='3149130'] As long as I can copy the best ideas from better musicians than me, I'm happy. [/quote] you can copy my ideas then
  21. You don't miss what you don't have. But if I didn't have it, I would miss it.
  22. Re. the power light, according to the instructions, it flashes when there is a low charge.
  23. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1475678460' post='3147899'] Just checking...how much of the gear for sale actually sold?? [/quote] [size=4]I sold my wireless, and gave my case of leads to the raffle. [/size]
