fleabag

I did - this really takes the pizz.

Perhaps not

Spoke to John about a V V T T + 3 way switch on a Sunday afternoon. By Monday it was built AND posted . Received Tuesday, next day. !!!! Opened the box and discovered one of the neatest circuits of any bass i've ever owned. Components were all top names in the pot, jack and switch business. It was also completely solderless. Instructions in the box, but had some questions for John because i'm thicker than a whale omelette. He was patient and i got answers imediately. Got it all wired up and it took off into orbit first attempt, which is a first for me and my wiring John is a gent and a scholar. There wasnt much more than the price of a couple of beers in it, after parts paid for , so this was a labour of love. Take a bow sir

Did anyone notice JT playing a Kubicki in the live on stage vid of VTAK ? I never knew he played one

That's a joke , shirley ? Ebay listening ? About 100 years ago, they stopped sellers being able to leave scumbag buyers a negative feedback. Since then, there's been a multitude of scams that no seller can warn other sellers about. People have moaned to Ebay for donkeys years about this and what have they done - sweet FA

You dont have to pay to relist it. But you do have to list it again using a new ad, if you want to. Fees are only if you want to bump the original ad after 30 days of no sale

I was under the impression the neck is sitting too high in the pocket, as this is what Brig said in an earlier post. If it is merely the strings are too high, then yes, i agree a neck pocket shim is the answer, but he never mentioned that

I would aslo go the simplest route of shimming the bridge. I dont see how putting a shim on the neck pocket would lower the neck.

Which can easily be removed with Optrex

Chas' wife ?

I'll never buy so much as a single string from BD after the shocking attitude i got from them regarding my expensive commission sale Overwater Guess i'll have to stump up top price or wait for some used ones

Where do you guys get your Copper White Labellas and what price ? I've seen some at 40 quid and some at over 50

That message " Is this still available " on Gumtree ads, are mostly not from people interested in the item. I've had many of those, and ignore them if there's no other text. This is because that one sentence is generated by Gumtree / Ebay. The people are real, i think, but they didnt send the message. If the message says " Is this still available " plus a bit more like " can you tell me about the condition " then this is a genuine message, rather than a Gumtree generated sentence (always the same one line sentence )

I think i paid 114 quid for my MK1 Xvives. They lasted 2 years. Not exactly good value

That looks like the dog's danglies

Especially useful for drummists. Rehearsal room with asbo lootly mahoosive windows

But i never want to see you ' strap on ' in public . Keep it in the bedroom AP, cheers 🤣

Just for the record East is North. Yup, to travel to Johns gaff i drive north and as he's not far from me, if i want East bits and bobs, i go to his house, where his workshop is. I like to time it just as he's boiled the kettle and made some toast. Makes a fine cuppa, and the toast aint bad either. I've known JE for 30 years. His work with Sony Pro Audio and Solid State Logic was awesome. He's as nice a guy as comes across in his customer service. 100%. He's a damn good bass player too. Ya just cant go wrong with East pre's.
