    Yeth, perhapth.

    I spotted a couple more with the buy-from-some-pawnshop.com image with price and reported to ebay and it's gone (they do seem to react when you tell them it's avoiding fees!). (I couldn't link that one here, because it was the brand which cannot be mentioned...)

    I keep looking at this and thinking it'd be good to have in my parts box in-case... ...but then I wonder if that "in-case" would ever arise.

    Not too heavy to carry, so good for your Elf...

    At £570, I'd have looked at the one here instead.

    It's now above what I would've been prepared to pay. Mind you, I've got one, albeit the one where they let a nutter chop the corners off...

    That is very nice. (But sadly too rich for me.)

    I've been working on the fence in my Rickenbackyard.

    I got it from someone at work (actually, it was £50 and included the tuners). It lived on a Precision body for a while and then I swapped it to a Jazz; it's also got a Badass bridge, Geddy pickups and control panel, and a Hipshot eXtender/D-tuner.

    An update - I spent ages looking for a 2nd original pickup, but in the end a pair of EMG 40Hz 5-string pickups came up and now they're fitted to the Spirit 5; I did have to do a bit of surgery with my Dremel and now need a couple of surrounds to cover the gap either side of the pickup bay, where the EMGs are just slightly narrower. The bass sounds really good now - surprisingly good, I'd say!

    Aye - not to be confused with...

    It's snuck up to £1,130.00 - somebody's going to get stung!

    Every time I look at a for-sale ad of a de-fretted bass, my heart drops. I've got a Jazz with a Mighty Mite fretless neck which is really good and cost me less than £100. Cheaper than stuffing up a decent neck...

    I reckon he's Havant a laugh!

    It says location is Midlands, but AFAIK, Wilko Johnson (the famous and rather excellent guitarist) lives in Southend. https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2020/jun/08/wilko-johnson-musician-on-life-in-lockdown-i-feel-grateful-to-be-alive

    It'd look great with fanned tuners.

    Shill bidding didn't pan-out, then...
  18. prowla
    It’d just be a rumour.
  19. prowla
    I’ll just leave this here.

    Thinning the herd.
  21. prowla
    I’d rather keep the £200.

    People selling computers with RAM or HDD size in grambits. There is no such measurement as a "gb"; it's a "GB"!

    I think it is one of those.

    Jailbreak siren

    prowla posted a topic in Effects

    Out in the car yesterday I switched on Planet Rock and it was playing Jailbreak, by Thin Lizzy. The "breakout" bit features a siren and I remembered that I had a had a Shaftesbury wah/squall/siren pedal I used for that back when we played it in the band I was in at school; I've still got the pedal somewhere. Well, I took a look on ebay and there's one going for £275 - crikey! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-rare-Shaftesbury-Squall-1970s-guitar-pedal-wah-siren-volume-surf-tornado/254701368522 Are they really worth that much?
