    Odd balls

    Rather than Frankenbasses, which appear to be basses cobbled together ( and many quite brilliantly ) by members, and has already been a rather big thread... has anyone bought an odd ball from a Pro ? ( Guitar shop, luthier etc ? ) I'm throwing this one of mine in - Unknown 3 part Ash P body, Unknown Peavey neck, Peavey tuners, reshaped headstock , jazz width at nut , Gotoh bridge Big allen head neck to body bolts, vintage Schaller Bass Bucker neck pup ( bluddy lovely too ) Dimarzio Model P DP 122 bridge pup. Vol, Blend, Tone. Simple
  2. Did you message him ? He's written that someone has informed him its a Shaftsbury. He sort of half disputes that though.
  3. I think the problem may have cleared itself .. 3 cheers for Dynorod
  4. Yeah that figures. I'm assuming the Shecter is a signature, being that it's called Ultrarcure
  5. I'm glad it wasn't just me. I clocked those strings at the start and thought, big bar stewards , or am i imagining it
  6. No i wouldn't ! I always thought he was a Parker Fly lover. He certainly was in Tinmen, IIRC Take another look at Smiths Schecter - it looks suspiciously like its been strung as a Baritone. Maybe thats exactly what those Schecters are ??
  7. And Bob Smith is also playing a Schecter. Seems to be an Ultracure ... 30" scale
  8. Longer arms ?
  9. Is your stand similar to mine ? I dont think this comes standard with the NXT, but it was included in the sale by the previous owner Mine seems well sturdy
  10. This one ? https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/maruszczyk-cazpar-bass-guitar-fretless-short-scale/1281047785
  11. Nice Dave Nah mate, not Chippy - Witney
  12. Wouldn't it be easier to have one of those mobile phone screen protectors made ? I like your engineering though - work of art

    Hi All

    Evening Zen.
  14. Looks like Curzon ?
  15. Brill - Inbetween Days another killer, of which there are many, of course. Close to me is another
  16. Not yet Pierre, but sounds like a good idea. I've breezed over some of his vids, and the bloke is mustard I've been twatting around on the NS and loving it . It was hard to start with but its amazing how quickly one gets used to things. Having recorded with and still owning a fretless regular bass, some of the muscle memory is there, just gotta stretch a bit more.
  17. Yup - Cure fan here. Hiram - is Lullaby in that YT vid ? I didnt go through to find out, but i love this track
  18. Dear Cliff ! These NS Contemparies are magic. Just what i was after. No expensive Spiros for me, gents Bit of lowering on the bridge and i'm right there. Just got to blag some EUB talent now.
  19. Lately, when a notification pops up, or checking the notification box up top, clicking on the notes takes me to the beginning of a thread instead of the new post. This is not a big deal , natch. But i'm sure the notes, when clicked on , used to take us to that post. Its also doing this thing on threads with more than one page, and so i end up at post 1 on page 1. And there's more... i'm getting a lot of notes where there's nothing been posted. I know thats been addressed in that maybe the poster changed their mind but i'm getting too many for that to be true all the time - shirley ?
  20. Good man. It always help to know weight, as some of the old farts on here ( me ) have a limit to what they can move around
  21. Yup, thats £968 to £1,057 in conversion at todays rate
  22. Sounds about right TH
  23. Bought from Bass Direct. Played once Weird
  24. They look damn good Might be useful to put the weight in.
  25. New 1300W Amplifier with Bass Response Technology I'd take that with a giant shovel of salt
