  1. Picked up an MXR compressor from Marc, came well packaged, in great condition and it arrived very quickly.
  2. [quote name='nugget' timestamp='1360177689' post='1966250'] ohh....Can I come round for a look and a coffee when you've got it?? [/quote] You'd be welcome to.
  3. Thank you, I've just had confirmation it's finished, I just need to plan a trip up to Hitchin to collect it
  4. I kinda like the worn black and red pattern it would make a nice looking guitar.
  5. Not an expert in any way but I have a JV Squier Strat, it just happens I bought it back then as a cheap guitar to strum and still have it, it's nice enough but I would have thought a modern secondhand Fender would be just as good.
  6. Depends if the neck pocket is a standard Fender size? if it is then it would be easy to find a neck to fit it but a pain if it's an odd size and you need to get a bespoke neck made.
  7. I've bought, sold and traded loads on here and all except one were easy transactions, the one that went a bit pear shaped involved me paying for and item then the seller ceased all contact even when prompted by the mods to do reply, couple of months down the line the item turned up out of the blue in the post, very odd.
  8. My view is it's your bass and you can do what you like to it, personally I wouldn't mod it. FWIW I always thought it would be better putting a P pup in the neck position of a Jazz Bass, (easily reversed to) but it isn't done that often.
  9. I can vouch for this being a really lovely bass.
  10. I ordered some black rubber bottle washers similar to the ones used on Grolsch bear bottles to be used as strap locks and it worked out cheapest to buy 20, I don't need that many and as they arrived in an unfranked envelope I thought I'd see if anyone wants a couple or four for free. R.
  11. Thanks I had a call from Lawrence yesterday and all the electrics are in now, it should be finished in the next couple of weeks but in the meantime he's going to send some new pics, I'll upload them when they arrive.
  12. Slightly of topic but there's some great pictures on your Flickr pages.
  13. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1359417038' post='1954609'] Even better news, for my poor ears anyway, is that we'll be in the quieter zone this year. In fact, theoretically, they are restricting crazed noisy slapping to just the first 15 minutes of each hour even in the main hall! [/quote] That is very good news
  14. I've been using 2 1x12's but I've recently picked up a 2x12 Neo cab to try out at our next rehearsal.
  15. [quote name='rk7' timestamp='1359269490' post='1952258'] Comfort Strapp or Mono. Comfort Strapp is, er, comfy, but has a certain degree of 'bounce' built in. Mono is extremely well made. RK [/quote] +1 I have both of these straps and like them for different reasons. Neither are leather though so may not be what you are after.
  16. Thanks guys, it all down to the talents of Lawrence (Henry Norton)
  17. Here's the latest picture with the body finish flattened and polished.
  18. Looking good, I didn't realise they did through neck Perceptions, is that special order or something new from Overwater.
  19. [quote name='bremen' timestamp='1358515555' post='1940606'] Does that make two of us? [/quote] 3 of us
  20. I had a go at the Oleta Adams tune a few weeks ago - Thanks.
  21. That's definitely the ad with the least amount of info in it I've ever seen Beautiful wood nicely photographed though
