  1. [quote name='Clarky' post='603244' date='Sep 20 2009, 12:19 AM']I was playing my Oly White US P-bass, Dave - you might have had some Precision pangs if you saw it, especially with that Lakland interloper![/quote] Eh? I thought I was playing it tonight
  2. Time for this one to say hello again
  3. Took me a while to find this again. Pre off to study school bump. I'll be back next Saturday
  4. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='595975' date='Sep 11 2009, 07:23 PM']...then lob the same pattern to that funny cymbal with the rivets for 'Variation'[/quote] I knew there was something I hadn't seen in my bass playing reincarnation. So they still have that thing (in Oxon at least)
  5. [quote name='beerdragon' post='596130' date='Sep 11 2009, 10:55 PM']They are oven cooked to a golden brown and there's a free can of stella, got be quick though.[/quote] Shoot. I'm going to miss out again and these are going to end up on eBay.
  6. Trade for black pudding?
  7. [quote name='budget bassist' post='594753' date='Sep 10 2009, 02:11 PM']that really reminds me of luke's taitycaster looking good![/quote] [quote name='Tait' post='595111' date='Sep 10 2009, 09:04 PM']funny you should say that cos i really really really want this bass already![/quote] Cheers chaps. The thing is by the time I've finished it your wives won't let you buy it.
  8. Gentlemen relax. Having patented the Deav-O-Meter[sup]TM[/sup] earlier in the thread and marketed it to a popular forum member I have received the following unsolicited testimonial: [i]"I'm totally satisfied! I've saved thousands, added two inches and met the woman of my dreams! Thanks Deaver!" - Mr K, Banbury[/i] Guaranteed results for non-priced listings. PM me for licence details.
  9. [quote name='timmchale2009' post='593299' date='Sep 8 2009, 09:16 PM']Bumpdiddlybumpbump[/quote] How old/new is this bass?
  10. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='593436' date='Sep 8 2009, 11:22 PM']Personally, I don't bother reading offers ads because I assume the seller will probably want more than I'm willing to pay. There's logic for you... [/quote] Skank, I can offer you the Deav-O-Meter the ultimate guide to non-specified bass pricing. No more shall you fret over such matters. PM me and I'll let you into my little secret.
  11. I can never understand why this always ends in a dust up. It doesn't bother me which way people want to price or sell. The only reason against not putting a price on your sale is that you'll get a numbskull offer. And that offer will most likely come from me.
  12. [quote name='BigBeefChief' post='593152' date='Sep 8 2009, 06:31 PM']I'm gonna bring a high-class escort like I did to my school reunion. That and the rented Porsche.[/quote] Is she driving?
  13. [quote name='EdwardHimself' post='593144' date='Sep 8 2009, 06:18 PM']I personally never ever use tone so i took mine out of all my guitars and basses so i'd go with the 2 volumes were it me. I'm liking the musicman pickup in the bridge position, i did a similar thing with my jazz copy the other day. Love the tone from it.[/quote] May well do that. Can anyone point me in the direction of a correct wiring diagram for Volume/Volume. Also does leaving the tone and therefore the cap out have any bearing on posiible electrocution? can you tell I don't know what i'm doing
  14. Updated gear 37. Deaver: [s]El Maya or the Prosebass Humbucker Fretless[/s] MIJ 86 Precision Still after a lift from Salisbury if anyone's coming through that way
  15. [quote name='charic' post='592172' date='Sep 7 2009, 03:44 PM']Thats actually come up looking pretty nice. Almost 3D should be a great looking bass [/quote] Cheers, I've got a better photo here- I've manipulated it slightly to get as true a colour as possible. The big thing now is wiring the pickups, I think it's going to be two volume controls and no tone rather than a blend volume and tone but I need to look into it. [attachment=32458:BuildLat3.jpg]

    [quote name='gafbass02' post='592510' date='Sep 7 2009, 10:24 PM']Tis true, I bloomin love this place!! Group hug!!?[/quote] Gerrorf me yer hairy bugger

    Thanks

    Why thank you, though I'm rarely any help to anyone. I'll be in your neck of the woods in a couple of weeks time, I'll be no use to you then either - unless the sight of middle aged drunks amuses you.
  18. And again, very impressive. Watched it all the way through, which may be a first for me.
  19. [quote name='munkonthehill' post='592377' date='Sep 7 2009, 07:32 PM']interested in a swap, i have a vintage bubinga fretted bass or a peavey max115[/quote] Not at the moment thanks. Looking at cash sales for the time being. I quite like the look of those Vintage bubinga basses mind you
  20. [quote name='Stu-khag' post='592372' date='Sep 7 2009, 07:25 PM']Hey, I really want this and have the money now! how would you take payment and I see its unlined- where exactly do you fret on the neck for the notes? (if that makes sense!!!)[/quote] We can sort out payment via PM, I've got a few options. You fret where the frets would be. There are dot markers on the side where you would normally find them on a fretted bass.
  21. It's taken a while but we're starting to get there now. The body has been finished with a couple of coats of Colron staining wax, a couple more coats of Lord Sheraton's Beeswax, and a polish with Gibson guitar polish. Haven't sorted the electrics yet, I may replace one of the pots with a blend pot (Volume/Volume) for the pickups. Hopefully finished before a popular seasonal winter holiday (I don't want to be the first to mention it) [attachment=32371:BuildLat1.jpg]
