Vat cannot be charged twice ,take the example when buying a commercial vehicle,a lot of second hand vans have VAT payable at purchase,because it has a been a hire vehicle,but if VAT has been levied on the initial purchase from new,then that VAT is not payable again.

Spares for / Circuit Diagram for Sandberg - Electra VS4
Mickyk replied to paddymac's topic in Repairs and Technical
Thanks for the post,i have just been digging a bit and it seems you are correct about the different Amps used.I ve only had the Bass a couple of weeks .The seller told me the Guitar was about 3 years old.The Guitar is in very condition almost like new so little use,it would have been nice to have the option to switch from active to passive though ,might just have to live with it although it's no biggie. -
Spares for / Circuit Diagram for Sandberg - Electra VS4
Mickyk replied to paddymac's topic in Repairs and Technical
Yes it's an active bass with the battery compartment on the back,but as said it doesn't have the passive option on the volume knob,maybe yours was done as a mod at some point.Be interesting if i could mod mine with passive /active switch. -

Mickyk replied to paddymac's topic in Repairs and Technical
i know this is an old thread,but i think it relates to my question about the Passive /active switch.I have the Sandberg Electra VS4. which doesn't appear to have this switch,?would anyone know why and if so which pot or switch operates the Passive mode.i have the maple fret board if that's relevant. -

The Yam BB necks are something in between a Jazz which is 38 mm at the nut to a P which is around 43mm at the nut,My BB424 is 40 mm at the nut HTH.

Yer i get that,but the M62 ends at North Cave near Hull,but thinking about it maybe Hull could equally be construed as being in Hell,even more so than Grimsby come to that.

🎶 Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids In fact it's cold as hell...... I've always been led to believe that Hell was rather hot. Mind you with Bernie living near Grimsby,maybe he thought that that cold hole was actually Hell.

Ibanez SR 500 5.Sire Jazz Bass vintage. i have 2 of these Basses left,but only play one of them,and the other one never comes off the wall hanger. Guess which one that is.

The reason Showaddywaddy had two drummers was something to do with them forming from two separate bands i believe.

What have you got against slap bass?
Mickyk replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
He was better looking than me. I'd moved from Nottingham in 76 with me mam n Dad to Scarboro. Me dad had been made redundant from the Pit so he bought me a Bass with his spare cash. I was very much still a rookie when I met them, they was just a couple of normal guys. Ah well the rest is history.
