Cat Burrito

Seven but it's likely to be five by the Autumn. My anti-GAS phase has been quite liberating.

There was an avoid thread earlier this week but I can't remember the company (!) I use Musicguard who are quite popular but I've never had to make a claim.

I bought some 62RI tuners off James. Posted & delivered within one working day. A typically smooth Basschat transaction.

Didn't sell then? My 78 is an awesome P-bass and I know of a few that are - directly contradicting the theory that they were all dogs. Didn't know that on the split logos on the left handed ones. A bit more info from the seller and this would've sold

I think it's fair to say when they designed this I was probably not the target market

[quote name='howieee' post='937402' date='Aug 26 2010, 06:44 PM']sorry just to clarify. im interested in the 2x15 not the 210. lol.[/quote] Yep, just commenting on Chris' post there. I think the thread title kinda gives away what you are after

I saw that too & I must confess I like the refin. Tempted but no, I have enough

[quote name='Girl_from_mars' post='937160' date='Aug 26 2010, 02:07 PM']I'm in NW London so if anyone can recommend a non tw@tty guitar shop, even better! Cheers [/quote] The other option is using an online stockist like Stringbusters. I'd ask the producer what he's looking for. I agree with the comments about such things being personal. I use flatwounds and heavy ones too but a lot of players like a lighter gauge and roundwound seem to be the most popular. Rotosound are good so I'd stick with them if the producer has mentioned them. If you like the lighter gauge try something like [url="http://www.djmmusic.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=RS66LC"]http://www.djmmusic.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=RS66LC[/url] And good luck with the session

Rosewood seemed to be all that was shipped to the UK at the time but they still made maple for the US market. It looks like he may be a genuine seller who doesn't know his stuff? He needs a lot more pictures & Information with this listing. Certainly a shot of the headstock is noticeable by it's absence

A lot of the copies are good but the originals are great. I just got rid of my 4003 & it was / is a fantastic bass - I just decided I was a Fender player & couldn't justify keepimg such an expensive bit of kit for occasional studio work. The prices seem to have come down second hand with the recession. The new / current ones are great but then I like the vintage mojo of the 4001s too

listening to Dan Fogelberg transcribing John Prine's Common Sense LP who are you discovering? old 70s country rock vinyl like Pure Prairie League who's making you wince with musicality? The last thing that did that was watching back a video of myself when I'd be drinking. Lesson learn't (again!)

It's funny with these mods that Fender push on us that aren't wanted. I had to remove the S1 switching on my old P-bass. It overlooks the fact that a lot of us just want a traditional sound

[quote name='chris_b' post='937357' date='Aug 26 2010, 05:42 PM']Ampeg don't even make the 210 any more!![/quote] They still do that as a combo though. Thankfully I have an old 90s SVT 2x10 USA cab which is great. I'm sure they'll do another run at some point. As for the OP I think Chris has answered it best. The 1x18 always was a bit flabby

I have flats on my dobro electro acoustic bass & it sounds great. It sounded terrible with roundwounds too. I had an Aria which was really big bodied a few years back. They are good for home use /recording but in a band situation you can get a little lost in the mix, so just bear that in mind. Don't buy online if it's acoustic, check it out personally & get one with a bigger body to get more volume

I'm getting into the bitsa basses & I'm the other way around. If I had a Jazz I'd stick a P-bass neck on it.

[quote name='Doddy' post='936475' date='Aug 25 2010, 09:52 PM']I don't believe that the Bullet Bass was ever available as a 32" inch scale-only 30" and 34". Mine is definitely a B-30 which has a 30" scale length.[/quote] The Korean Squiers were 32", or some of them anyway.

Did Fender split the logo like that on 70s basses? I know some 60s ones differ but I'm not "absaloutly" sure they did come the late 70s. If it is genuine I'd want a LOT more detail. He talks most about his M4 Corridor man journey!

There's an Olp MM2 that has had at least 5 BCs own it. I got it off ChrisWilliams666 and sold it to Stevie and I know Chris was the 2nd or 3rd owner and Stevie's sold it on. All of us acknowledge it's a great bass but obviously just not a keeper!

[quote name='Marvin' post='936383' date='Aug 25 2010, 08:44 PM']Quiet on BC on a Wednesday isn't it![/quote] Ironic as it sounds, we were practising!

Skip Battin from the last incarnation of The Byrds didn't have a sig model so I made my own

It was mentioned in the OP but Ashdown 'Little Bastards' simply isn't clever

The Eagle Bass One & I'd strip the black paint off it [url="http://www.bcrich.com/bass_eagle_one.asp"]http://www.bcrich.com/bass_eagle_one.asp[/url] Sorry!

Welcome to Basschat Ondrej

I think it looks great, mine just sit in cases and it's a cool storage option
