Hi all, Prices include postage: 1 x D'addario EXL170 45-100 Nickel 1 x D'addario EPS170M 45-100 Medium Scale Pro Steels (stated as fine on basses upto 34" scale, I used them for my old 32" Jazz) SOLD [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/4kd5yh.jpg[/IMG] Cheers Si -
£2k for a refinished '73.....meh It does look nice, but I wouldn't pay more than £1600 for it. But then we're back to this being a shop, it's going to be more expensive than the private market. And I agree, some really fantastic 70's Fenders about, I've still never played a better Precision than my '71 Si

Still eying up one of the Elwood 5s in stock for when my Shuker sells, either one of those or an Xotic Si

Yup, standard for all Maruszczyk payments, including my custom. Si

*Forum shocked that a shop sells a bass for more than the private sale value* Si

Bought a pedal from me, easy to deal with a paid quickly. Thanks Si

[quote name='Japhet' timestamp='1460965688' post='3030102'] Love Victor for the simple reason that he has no inhibitions, restrictions or boundaries to what he does, or attempts with a bass guitar. He has an extremely fertile imagination as well as a mountain of talent. Sure, he's gained a reputation as a show pony, but so what? Put him in any context and he'd be able to absolutely nail it. He is also, by all accounts a very genuine, humble and generous man. [/quote] Fully agree with everything above. I studied with him a couple of years ago at one of the camps and he's incredibly lovely and very accessible for anything you want to know! Si

He's a master musician and educator, enough said, and I don't like slap solo stuff. How's this for emotion: http://youtu.be/3mBfTe9owUw Si

[quote name='Hugh971' timestamp='1460750937' post='3028562'] My custom Elwood arrived today! I'm proper chuffed with it. The craftsmanship is excellent and it plays like butter. The setup out of the box is perfect for me too, which is unusual. Usually I've got the allen keys out within 5 minutes of opening the box. Hugh [/quote] Very nice! What's custom about the build? Compared to their stock 'Human Nature' builds. Si

Cheers guys, yes it's a beaut of a bass, just fancying a bit of a change is all Si -
It basically just sounds like Stefan Lessards SSB rendition from the Dave Matthews Central Park concert, not awful, but meh. I'm not sure what tone people are expecting him to play with, a nice fat P-bass tone isn't going to cut through in a stadium like that, it isn't a band after all. Si

[quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1460454136' post='3025778'] Thought I'd give a quick update. Last night was the first opportunity I had to sit down with the TFR and Musket pedals I built. The Musket is the hands down winner for me. So flexible and can get SUPER aggressive. Just haven't clicked with the TFR, although I'm not convinced I haven't made a boo boo somewhere in the build! It sounds REALLY congested, although it has lots of the standard TFR cap values replaced with higher values for bass use. I think further tinkering is required so I'll add a blend and mid control while I'm at it. Maybe add switchable diode options too... Any suggestions on a decent blend circuit Si? Is a paralooper overkill? [/quote] If you don't want to go down the route of a paralooper, just take a look at the Fuzz Dog Blender kit, nice with the onboard pot. Or JMK did a nice layout if you're not fussed about onboard pot: http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3414.0;attach=2704 Si

[quote name='uzzell' timestamp='1460482327' post='3026123'] Absolutely! Suits my particular ethereal style of playing. In fact, it was a comment made by yourself a good while ago that prompted me to give them a try so thanks for that. [/quote] My pleasure! . Great board! Si

Hi all, I built a one-off Poultone Trooper clean boost into a 1590a enclosure, just to see if the PCB fit really. The Trooper is based off the Zvex Super Hard-On, but with tweaks to make it quieter, with no crackle, just nice clean boost. The pink enclosure has a tiny scuff on the left side (pictured), so cheaper price. Clean inside, premium parts.

Naaaa, I'm voting for black. But then that's what I went for on my Shoreline Gold Maruszczyk, so i'm biased Si

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1460539049' post='3026531'] I'll not due my sofa shot for another couple of weeks, and that's with a following wind. *drums fingers* [/quote] Argh I want the spec lol. That silver sparkle Elwood is killer, although I'd have gone gold sparkle Si

[quote name='uzzell' timestamp='1460394038' post='3025353'] Just thought I would quickly share with you all the latest evolution of my board. Need to add a true bypass switch (for switching on multiple effects at once, namely the POG and Organizer (sic)) and replace that daft red lead. As you may have guessed, I am one of those more ambient style bassists. [/quote] Organizer with an Eterna is ultimate Si

Love this! Si -
Kinda mildly considering an Elwood 5, a super-jazz type vibe....hmmmm. No real news, just thinking out loud! Si

[quote name='OutSpoon' timestamp='1460206012' post='3023609'] pre-amp is awesome. The sound variety is incredible. Passive with the front pickup sounds really growly and warm. Active with the back pickup on split coil is super jazz. Back pickup active is totally music man. Everything on = just awesome. I'll record a demo. :-) [/quote] Yes would be interested to hear it! Si
-
[quote name='OutSpoon' timestamp='1460198018' post='3023434'] they already do a Pelham blue and Charcoal Frost... :-) [attachment=216552:Screen Shot 2016-04-09 at 11.31.59.png] [attachment=216553:Screen Shot 2016-04-09 at 11.32.29.png] [/quote] Which are cool, but aren't quite there for me to say 'must have'. Their Olympic White was spot on, but am looking forward to seeing what other custom colours they go with. How do you find the preamp? Si
-
Ah I saw Anthony Wellington post this . Very cool, I wouldn't hesitate buying another Fodera if the money was there, my MGS was wonderful. The Classic series are fantastic, and I just know they'll screw me over by releasing a Sonic Blue or Shoreline Gold colour in the future lol Si

[quote name='cocco' timestamp='1459878110' post='3020535'] Mine hasn't missed a beat since I got it to be honest. It came with super low action and too light of a gauge string for me but they are drops in the ocean when considering how good it sounds, feels and plays. I'd order another one in a heart beat. I've seen a Jake with T-bird pickups that looks pretty dangerous [/quote] That Jake with TBird pickups does look awesome, not quite keen on the neck, but the body is awesome! I too would order again as mine has been great out the box, this setup issue does seem to be an anomaly. Either way, it will get sorted and the stealth tank will be an awesome bass Si
