  3. A remarkably fine way to have spent a Sunday afternoon [size=4] [/size]
  4. [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1465067384' post='3065123'] there you go courtesy of tauzero [url="https://media.music-group.com/media/PLM/data/docs/P0294/BDI21_P0294_M_EN.pdf"]https://media.music-..._P0294_M_EN.pdf[/url] the instructions in the box are a complete f*** up [/quote] Ta! And tnx 2 'zero!
  5. [quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1464983248' post='3064478'] Anyone want to post some settings? [/quote] I mean it! The examples in the instructions are for the guitar version.
  6. Mine came yesterday. Anyone want to post some settings?
  7. John bought my Iceni. Smooth transaction, pleasure to do business with. Yup!
  8. [quote name='The-Ox' timestamp='1464641624' post='3061118'] apologies, I won't be able to carry out the task [/quote]no worries. :-)
  9. [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1464774919' post='3062331'] As long as it can tie up at each end I don't see why not. J12 M25 might be tricky - nearest services are J9/10. Just tried your number - I'll ring again later. [/quote] You have pm :-)
  10. [quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1464616148' post='3060799'] We have been here before. I can't remember the name of the bass player, but it was an American guy, played for someone like Third Eye Blind, had Fender custom shop instruments with left-handed/reverse headstocks, citing the longer string length (albeit on the E-string) resulted in better/more agreeable tension across the set. I think the consensus was the guy was speaking out of his bottom. [/quote] I wonder how this would affect a Hipshot extender, as there would be more of the string before the nut, to detune?
  11. M25 jnc12 could work for me, A303 may work for Oldslapper.
  12. [quote name='casapete' timestamp='1464436997' post='3059446'] Been looking at getting another of these as a spare for my spare! Cracking pedal for the money, even if you just use it as a DI. Good deal here including p&p too. [url="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Behringer-Modeler-Guitar-Effects-Pedal/dp/B000KIPUQG/ref=sr_1_1?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1464436800&sr=1-1&keywords=behringer+bdi+21"]https://www.amazon.c...ehringer+bdi+21[/url] [/quote] Just be careful to tick the free delivery option. I clicked 'buy with one click' and got charged for postage. Have cancelled and reordered.
  13. [quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1464094839' post='3056499'] Pm'd [/quote] Replied.
  14. And we haven't had any more trouble with the FBI since. [size=4] [/size]
  15. [quote name='el-gnomo' timestamp='1463648027' post='3053014'] Myself and Pineweasel (the lefties from last year) will try to be there, if we can. [/quote] that's Bluejay happy then!
  16. I know one of Wilco Johnson's offspring. Back in the day they made a comment along the lines of 'my Dads' bass player Norman'. It was years later I realized it was the legend that is Norman Watt-Roy, being referred to.
  17. [quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1461429942' post='3034607'] [/quote] and again!
  18. No examples, it's a bit of a leap of faith, but I trust Jon. The decals for the finish are coming from a custom car parts firm. I want a matt finish (with a black volume knob on a black strip) . The ramp will be a bit simpler, probably smaller, with the thumb rest part a tad nearer to the strings.
  19. [quote name='Si600' timestamp='1463086738' post='3048545'] That's an interesting approach to a drop D tuning. I've never seen it before. Does it cause any issues with not being able to play an open E or I guess you just learn to work around it. [/quote] I got the idea from the Kubicki's I used to have, but it's been a feature on some double basses from back in history (although they generally were extended to C). No probs for me having to fret the low E. I find it easier this way as the E is still in tune for the rest of the neck, unlike the Hipshot types, where you have to play 2 frets up.
  20. Yup, but different
