  1. I've usually found GAK to be pretty good but that said I have taken to phoning ahead these days if ever I'm in a hurry. I know it defeats the point but that's what happens when you've had your fingers burned in the past. Personally on stuff like strings I prefer buying from my local shop. You pay a bit more but they are there for the emergencies.

    I'd probably cancel the order on this occasion

  2. Pretty much as the thread says really. I know there was some excitement around the tiny terror heads but these little combos look like fun for those on a budget.

    Just for mucking about really & acoustic jams. I bought on looks, I'm sure it's hideously overpriced in some eyes but it just screamed retro cool to me

  3. [quote name='colski' post='671647' date='Dec 1 2009, 10:18 PM']To be honest I don't have a clue, was hoping for some suggestions! Would take £180 including postage.[/quote]

    Missed the boat again! Oh well, I hadn't checked in and would have bought this on the day of listing had I seen the update. I'm sure somebody will be very happy.

  4. I was admiring the Area 51 pup online just yesterday. Can't say I've heard it but it looks awesome. Happy to be proven wrong but the SD pups are really good and I do wonder whether the difference would be worth the cost - or even if there is that big a difference? I tend to favour the SPB-1 and the Antiquity pups for my playing though (although I am familar with the SPB-3).

  5. A couple of references to the 50s classic but worth remebering this is not a standard MIM bass. Expect to pay more & expect a similar jump in quality like what you get with a standard Squier & a VM Squier. I really rate them but not everyone likes the traditional feel

  6. [quote name='bobbass4k' post='675425' date='Dec 6 2009, 05:57 AM']So why contribute to a thread entitled: "post your pedalboard?" It might be the sleep deprivation and accompanying paranoia but that seems intentionally antagonizing. I don't surf, but I wouldn't go on a surfing forum and tell them all how pointless their surfboards are.[/quote]

    I'm certainly not criticising other players at all. I like effects but keep it simple myself. I think you are reading too much into this. I'm probably posting a lot more at the moment to keep my mind from the treatment (chemotheraphy) I'm going through at the moment, not looking to pick fights. Some great looking set ups here. Peace

  8. Very cool - check my 1978 P-bass thread I posted earlier this week for another piece of late 70s Museum quality
