Stuart purchased my Status bass from me last week. Paid immediately, great communication and a pleasure to do business with.

If it's compressed heat/steam will work very well. Rather than trying to describe the process, I would point you to You Tube [/quote] In my experience this only works for soft woods. Dense woods are harder to compress and therefore harder to decompress

Why not boost the bottom three of the five EQ knobs and turn down the gain and or volume to make the treble roll off more pronounced. Failing that buy an EQ pedal

I use 0000 wire wool to clean the fretboard and polish the frets. Mask over the pickups first. Afterwards vacuum the dust off, wipe down with a slightly damp cloth, let dry then use the lemon oil to replenish the oils in the fretboard.

If you read the other threads on here about the same seller and same bass it will make sense.

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1498000188' post='3321957'] Only if the sale actually went through. If the buyer didn't pay, and I very much doubt he would, then he'd just cancel the transaction. [/quote] as I said in my post, ebay charge the fees to your ebay account invoice the moment the auction ends - i know because it happened to me on an item the buyer did not pay on. It wasnt until I opened an unpaid item dispute and that dispute was upheld (14 days IIRC) that I got my final value fee back!

[quote name='Bass_Guardian' timestamp='1497955456' post='3321550'] It's that roaster mentioned another thread. The guys a looney tune [/quote] I bet he has seen the bid and is sitting there rubbing his hands together with a maniacal grin on his face!!!

Excellent! I hope someone took my advice and created a shill account to place the bid. That way very soon he will be paying nearly £20K in final value fees when the auction ends!!! and yes that is right, the charge goes on to your next invoice when the auction ends, not when the buyer pays!

Undoubtedly a phenomenaly talented musician either way. Would be very interested to see how good he would be at just playing straight guitar. Pretty bloody good I would guess!!!

Definitely having fun with it: [media]http://youtu.be/yYuyJ1NZIUU[/media]

he's just having fun with it I guess. i too think it would be better without the vocals but the guy has to have a little fun along the way.

I'm surprised at the comments about the "singing" it is entirely tongue in cheek!

for fellow Tool fans, his cover of Lateralus is also mind blowing: [media]http://youtu.be/SzREx4vCZpU[/media]

Maybe they have given up on their new album having seen this guy cover their material with one instrument and two hands! (for those of you not familiar with the song, skip to about 1min in to get a true idea of this guys talent) [media]http://youtu.be/zg84JNRFQG8[/media]
