  1. You could use the Autosol straight away.I thought that by using the fine wet and dry first,it would soften the dings and scratches,so that it did'nt have that fresh reliced yesterday feel.
  2. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='727750' date='Jan 28 2010, 04:14 PM']Shame it's a lefty.[/quote] where ?
  3. Lightly use the fine wet and dry,then polish out the scratches that leaves with something like Solvol Autosol,..........hey presto.............one slightly matte/slightly shiny finish.
  4. If it was free,it would still be too expensive.
  5. Cash converters proberbly.
  6. Try the finest grade wet and dry paper you can find to take the shine off.
  7. Best of luck with the re-fin.Theres a lot more dents and scratches now than there was before the "relicing" i'll guess.
  8. I have done this,the acoustic bass guitar was not quite loud enough on it's own.I used a small cheap battery powered amp,can't remember the brand,but the batterys did'nt seem to last very long.
  9. Encore do a 3/4 size P bass as well.
  10. Jim Deacon 3/4 size precision.
  11. If your wife is a "non Musician" could you not buy her a drum kit ?
  12. What would that £8.15s.0d.equate to now ?
  13. Thats what i guessed.
  14. Why 2 fretted necks ?
  15. I think that a lot of people are put off by the realatively low cost of the JHS Vintage gear,and just dismiss them as tat.They may not have the kudos of the big manufacturers,but every one i've seen has been good.The hardware is not fancy but good quality,and the build quality is consistent.They are as good as many basses costing far more.
  16. I would'nt have owned that at the time,but i would now.
  17. 1 - Buy a decent amp secondhand,Behringer amp simulator,service the bass,save up for a better bass. 2 - Buy a decent bass secondhand,amp simulator,save up for decent amp. I have gigged with a secondhand Jim deacon bass £80 IIR,and still use it quite often.I also bought a used Carlsboro Delta bass head £120 IIR,new Behringer 600w 2x12 cab £150,Behringer V-Amp effects unit new £75.All are giggable,so it can be done at guitar store prices.All of these were bought at the same shop,so there was no searching involved.They were'nt all bought at the same time,though they could have been.
  18. They sell from about £160 new,so i think that £80 - £100 could be possible.
  19. Sounds like the speaker is knackered (technical term)to me.
  20. Amazing bass,love the sound.Is that clip with flats on ?
  21. So will the add if you do'nt post a price.
  22. [quote name='karlfer' post='720604' date='Jan 21 2010, 10:19 PM']Pardon my thickness what is/are W&T's?[/quote] [url="http://www.wtbasses.net/"]http://www.wtbasses.net/[/url] ?
  23. [quote name='Earbrass' post='719180' date='Jan 20 2010, 04:06 PM']...with Vangelis (Papathanassiou) on keys. Check out their album '666'. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=selfqEH-JnY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=selfqEH-JnY[/url][/quote] Great album IMO,i've had it for about 30 years.
  24. My bikes do'nt break down,i do'nt fanny about with them like the HOGgies do. I've just had a think about this.........since 1978 i've only broken down on a bike 3 times 1 - fried coil - Suzuki T500 2 - puncture - Honda CB400N 3 - chain snapped - Suzuki GN400 so i must either be lucky,good mechanic,or due a breakdown ? Anybody want to buy a Harley ?
  25. I should'nt like this,but for some reason,i think it looks great. It must take some skill to make chrome adhere to sausages though.
