Pea Turgh

There was a member here who took a saw to the back of his heavy bass, taking off a perfect slice. Mad skills.

Yeah, I’ll probably screw it up. Was hoping there would be a nice easy chemical solution, like pop it in vinegar for 30 seconds and it would magically match perfectly.

In one of my contemplative moods, whilst staring in to space instead of being a productive member of society, my gaze fell upon my favourite bass. Felt the urge to change something, and thought gold anodized knobs to match the gold anodized scratchplate might work. Knobs ordered/sailed/arrived - too damn gold. Is it possible to tone the colour down to match the scratchplate? Light sanding?

Absolutely does my head in when a scratchplate or control plate doesn’t follow the body line!

Awesome looking board. Why three preamps though?

If Batman was a bassist…

That body looks like it was cut from an old Church pew! Love it!

Yes! @Jabba_the_gut is building again!!! Absolutely love that 👍

No experience of it in real life, but mini (5w), and no indication of a fan; https://www.thomann.co.uk/hotone_nano_legacy_thunder_bass.htm

Hey @sshorepunk - like the set up. Have you attached it all to a pedalboard yet?

It says “Stage Tuner” - guess it can be used as either.

I’m in Swansea, and have a cousin on Southampton who might visit at some point this year! Does the seller drive east for work?

Nice! And nice amp! The driver will sound better as you break it in.

Absolutely love that, @Maude 👏👏👏

Is the difference between the 60b to 60b+ more hardware or software? Just wondering if it was software then I could just upload the new patches from that Zoom Effects Manager (if they are available/compatible).

Excuse my misreadings of the original post. As you were.

F..fff….ffffinish, a project? I am unfamiliar with the term.

A couple of months ago I responded to a Recycle post here from a very kind chap @verb. I have yet to make an appropriate sleeve, and it will also need a visit to an amp spa, but behold….

I had an amp that decided to die in soundcheck. Absolutely sh*t myself as it was a big important one (for me - in the grand scheme of things it was just another covers gig). Soundie (bless his cotton socks) wheeled out an old 2x10 Trace combo and saved the night. Yes. Love was felt that night. Probably the best onstage sound I’ve ever had.

Try picking it up. Your love might dissolve pretty quickly!

Pretty sure Roland still have a big place here in Swansea. That name certainly sounds local!

That’s a lovely looking bass - nice one!

Looks Ibanez shaped to me.

That is lush. Nice one 👍
