  1. Yeah I’m not fussed about the ‘vintage’ element, but could be good for paring with my Noble. I had a GR Amp that was a similar setup, but the fan was pretty bloody loud. Si
  2. I’m more interested in the Little Mark Vintage Amp 1000 (the power amp only one), but can’t find any info on it other than on the MB site, no dealers or anything. Si
  3. Haha, no, although would be a cool twin for my 4 string. Would likely be a US 55-01 style, ie two soapbars (Bartolini naturally). Si
  4. I just don't get on with Cherry burst finishes at all, but it's a stunner, put it in tobacco sunburst or a metallic 'custom' colour, and you have me! Seriously considering a US Lakland 55-94 custom (with a couple of Sibob personal touches), but need to sell the 55-02 first. Si
  5. This was mine and is genuinely a very good bass, especially for the price! Si
  6. Ooooo, it came! That was a quick turnaround from the last convo!! Very cool! That’s it now, P-bass itch sorted….right!? 🤭 Si
  7. Getting married TODAY 🥰😁

    SOLD

    Price reduction Si
  9. It’s slightly different, similar EQ section I think, but the preamp of the Thump is based off the old Echoplex preamp. I have tried it, and while it definitly has a use, I felt it was losing the Precisions low-end character in favour of the Nobles low-end character. As I say, sounds great, has its place, but not all the time for me. Si
  10. I only had the mini boost version, which I think is very much aimed at guitarists. I definitely appreciate the extra EQ on the Thump! Si
  11. Yeah it’s just something I’ve never felt the need for, or when I’ve used one, have noticed a palpable improvement. I very much like having full and complete control over dynamics from my hands. Si
  12. Thanks, already sorted though, see above 🙂 Si
  13. I rarely, if ever, use them together on this board, so it’s not an issue. I could simply swap them around if needed I suppose. I think the only stacking I do is Fuzz into Chorus. Si
  14. Made a couple of changes for the better I think. Swapped out the TC Spark for the MXR Thump, WAY more functionality of course, and I do love the MXR bass range! The Thump is actually marginally smaller than the Spark too, which has allowed me to swap out my COG Knightfall 66 Mini for my custom COG Tarkin, which again, has a lot more functionality on it. Chain is: Bass -> MXR Thump -> COG Tarkin -> Boss TU3W -> MXR Envelope Filter -> Boss OC2 -> MXR Bass Chorus -> Noble Pre -> Amp Si
  15. Oh no.....a bass I've wanted for a while has become available. £2k+ though.....what to do!?!
    I should probably go try it and hope that it's rubbish haha

      Seems overpriced to me, even by todays inflated standards. Think that was the right call, whatever the reason.

      I agree with Pete

  16. For me it’s the MXR, best envelope filter on the market IMO Si
  17. The pickup came back from Aaron on Thursday last week, but I only had a chance to refit it last night! It needed one side of it rewinding, but it’s now reunited with the bass! sounds as wonderful as it did before, can’t wait to gig it again! Si
  18. The pickup is now indeed with Aaron Armstrong! So fingers crossed it’s recoverable. Thanks all Si
  19. Tool tickets acquired. Happy with that!

  20. So upsettingly, the original pickup in my ‘71 Precision has given up the ghost and, it seems, will require a repair/rewind. I know next to nothing about pickups, so wanted to garner some opinions on who might be the best person/company in the UK who could take it on, hopefully retaining the ‘vintage’ness’ of the pickup haha. Thoughts? Si
