  1. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1413723670' post='2581205'] 27B High Street South Norwood London SE25 6HA [/quote] I' think that's the address of the local driving test centre. Bass sounds huge BTW.
  2. I wonder if the necks are the same size/spec on the P as the J
  3. [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1413807445' post='2582083'] Welcome to my world of magpie gear whore-dom [/quote] Luckily I hadn't started on the wine when the auction ended or it WOULD have been mine
  4. Thanks for the clarification. I just liked the colour
  5. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1413793825' post='2581803'] I asked him about blocks - he can do a block'n'bound J-profile neck for an an additional cost. I also asked him about lighter-touch rellic'ing, and he said he can reign it in a bit. [/quote] Cheers for the info, just what I needed.
  6. Does anyone know if Limelight do any options? could you have blocks and/or a binding on the neck if you wanted? While I'm at it with the questions does Mark offer a light relic? all the basses I've seen on here and in real life are very lovely but a bit too worn and rusty for my liking. Thought I'd ask here 1st
  7. Battered Teal SR5, custom fretless, J&D. [attachment=174210:P1010333 lr.jpg]
  8. I have 3 green basses and with get them all together and take a pic soon.
  9. I bailed out on bidding on this eventually as I only wanted the body, I got bit carried away though as I love the colour, afterwards I got to thinking maybe I was bidding against a fellow BC'er? it would be nice to think someone on here has nabbed it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111485796032 Out of curiosity does anyone know what make it is? I've owned Tokai's before and I don't think it's one of them.
  10. I bought this on here recently and while it's been fun to play and has a big double bass like sound I can't get on with such a short scale bass. Here's a link to Gareth's original ad: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/243107-tanglewood-fretless-travel-bass-twrb-e-bass/page__p__2531301__hl__tanglewood%20travel%20bass__fromsearch__1#entry2531301"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2531301[/url] The only difference is I don't have the box for it and I have replaced the batteries in the pre amp for new one. £150.00 - Including mainland UK postage, a bit less if you want to collect it Trades: Zoom B3 or B1on, MXR M81 Pre Amp, Fender Road Worn Jazz neck and or parts, block and bound Rosewood Jazz neck, Stingray 5 pup.
  11. I still use my old Whirlwind cables all the time, as good as they ever were but when I do need something new I now get them made for me by ....................... OBBM
  12. I've got an old Boss CS-1 that gives this weird swell to notes, it kinda gets louder before it drops off, works quite well on fretless.
  13. Great looking bass and I've always wanted to try a Sandberg, if I wasn't having a 5 string Jazz made for me I would have snapped this up. Good luck with the sale.
  14. I'm fond of an Octaver on fretless it's very 80's though!
  15. Mine is a tad heavy but apart from that it's as good a bass as any to gig with.
  16. Tis a thing of absolute beauty, alas it's well out of my price range.
  17. I think I might have to have a go on that at some point Mark - pretty please
  18. My brother-in-law has a spare ticket for the RAH show so I'm now going to that, I haven't seen them live since the late 80's, hopefully there will be NO punters with whistles in the audience any more
  19. Dot and bound neck, lollipop tuners ............ oh I do like a 66 Jazz Bass.
  20. Funnily enough I've just been looking at bandmix.co.uk and having slightly similar thoughts, I was looking for for a keyboard player or guitarist who who just plays for a bit of fun but there is no way to filter out all the professionals. people who want paying gigs, the wrong age group or want to make it big! I gave up and went and made a nice cup of tea
  21. [quote name='andybass87' timestamp='1412593397' post='2570137'] seen one on gumtree this morning for a silly price. don't know if I am allowed to post a link or not?? [/quote] The blue one for £60? blimey that is cheap!
  22. [quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1412420178' post='2568763'] And now ordered !!! I was initially thinking of converting it to a PJ, and adding a black bridge and control plate. Hmmmmm. [/quote] You will have to let us all know what you think of it.
  23. [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1412419316' post='2568747'] How heavy are they? [/quote] On the heavy side, I'd say it's 10lbs
