    The strings are no longer tacky. Just so that you know.

    [quote name='ezbass' post='951939' date='Sep 10 2010, 03:56 PM']Haven't ried a Nash but I know a UK guy who does the same thing. Haven't tried his basses, but his guitars are sweet, drop him a line [url="http://www.kingswoodcustomrelics.com/"]http://www.kingswoodcustomrelics.com/[/url][/quote] I dropped him a line. He does not do basses.

    [quote name='slobluesine' post='952643' date='Sep 11 2010, 12:31 PM']no steel in these Owen, i also have a set of Prestos, pretty similar to Silver Slaps except they do have some steel under the nylon, both very low tension with a gut vibe to them [url="http://www.presto-strings.com/doublebass.html"]http://www.presto-strings.com/doublebass.html[/url] £50 posted[/quote] Ho hum, no metal means tricky bowing. Sadness.

    Do these have any other covering apart from metal? I love my Innovation Rockabillys but cannot bow them. I'm guessing these are Rockabillys with no black wrap?

    I Have a 66 J. If it had a B string I would not play or own any other bass guitars. As it is, I hardly ever play it but cannot bring myself to move it on. I am respecting Beedster's attitude to moving his 64P. I am a sentimental old fool.

    [quote name='kurcatovium' post='944078' date='Sep 2 2010, 11:34 PM']Will this fit standard Fender neck and scratchplate?[/quote] I have no idea. If someone can shoot me Fender neck dimensions I will check. I am so confused by the different MIM/MIK/MIJ/MIA 11/12/13 hole scratchplates that I do not know about that either I'm afraid. Top selling technique by me there

    I sold BB a Status Streamline. It was easy (see above). He then sold it back to me again. Most excellent.

    My brother has this in his garage. It is obv old and rusty. He is guessing Carlsboro, but is resigned to being wrong. Can anyone throw any info at us? TIA [attachment=57707:IMG_0635.jpg] [attachment=57708:IMG_0636.jpg] [attachment=57706:IMG_0634.jpg] [attachment=57709:IMG_0637.jpg] [attachment=57710:IMG_0638.jpg]

    It does not really matter how it plays, it sounds like it looks DA BOMB.

    That D-stop is superb. So simple, but so obvious. It is one of the major gripes I have with my NS5.

    [quote name='Happy Jack' post='931054' date='Aug 20 2010, 03:50 PM']The guy fronting the jam at The Spice Of Life in the West End on Tuesday is like that. He's a multi-instrumentalist, playing guitar + bass + drums, but his approach to all three instruments is the same. [size=5][b]LOOK AT ME! ME!! ME!!![/b][/size] Doesn't matter what else is happening on stage, who else is (supposed to be) soloing, what sort of song is being played. It's just incessant widdling and fills and fast runs and ... oh, you get the picture. I'm sure that he's technically very clever, but musically he's a complete dickhead.[/quote] "Yeah man, that's great. But what's your story? What are you saying?" - Lester Young

    If so could you PM me? I have an outstanding Paypal dispute going on and I hope someone might give me some info. I am not going to ask anyone to do anything, don't worry. I am just wondering if anyone gigs down there and might have noticed a new cymbal being used that I am yet to be paid for. Thanks.

    Harland & Wollf shipyard on top of my own 30ft scaff tower which was part of a circle of 8 such towers each with it's own dedicated PA stack all rigged to an 8 way joy-stick on the PA. The dancers came down from the ceiling and threw chalk and earth at the audience. We were fearsomely loud and we got paid well. You have to love groundbreaking theatre
