    Brian Eastwood lives in Hebden Bridge I think. He makes some interesting stuff.Each Sunday evening he hosts a jam night in a pub near me and always has a home made jobby with him. He often uses a guitar with strings on the front and back and flips it over for different songs.

    I imported a double bass about 4 years ago and the import duty /vat was round about that,I cant remember exactly but I think all the details were on the Customs and Excise website.I suppose things may have changed since then
  4. keeponehandloose
    Import a string instument over 50 years old and VAT is about 3 or 4%.Similar with Duty.

    WILL & TOM. GOOGLE THE MAKE.Excellent soft case,wheels to drag it,more handles than an octopus would need.Less than £200. Much better than a hard case .

    Think so,they have a Myspace page.

    Ebay item 180519317796. This looks good.

    I would seriously consider second hand.E bay is always good for Boosey&Hawkes basses from 70/80s.They are consistent quality and far more robust than any £500 new bass of today.

    I got the 15" combo,love it,but I [u]WANT[/u]a matching extention cab. Yours is much easier on the eye than the standard livery

    Boss LS2 . 3 inputs but only 2 with gain controls. Should be able to match the 2 to one without the gain.

    Dont think that is too bad a neck repair-it looks clean. Looks like a tuning peg is bent,but they are small gear machines which suggests older. You can still get replacement scrolls in plastic(they always were). Slap on a new Kay emblem ..job done.

    A frustrating gig last night. Great pub in Llangolen,fantastic ale, which I always miss out on as I have to drive. Best of all they have a house PA,way too big for the venue,only now they have the added luxury of a council funded noise meter. One of my fave gigs is now ruined.

    Up for sale is a "brand new" X&M crossover pedal . This is the latest addition to the SFX Sound catalogue. I ordered it on Saturday ,it arrived today! (Wednesday),and here it is up for sale. Why??? I had an idea in mind and thought that this may be the answer.However it didnt go as planned. This si no reflection on the X&M at all.This thing is a Bi-amp in a box.It will seperate your signal into hi and lo at a selected point using the rotary control. Hi and lo each have an effect loop so that different effects can be added to a part of the signal,then combined within the box and hi and lo gains matched with the 2 gain controls. It is built like a tank,unmarked and less than a day old.It must be one of the first made as they only went on sale on Friday. Price £120 posted to UK mainland.(£159 new on SFX website.) Go to SFXsound for official description. I will post pix soon. Andy

    Definetly get a propr setter.It makes the the job a hell of a lot easier than any homemade tools.

    Maybe I do without realising. Sitting at the dinner table recently, with my wife sat opposite me,my gaze drifted over her shoulder towards my upright bass which stands in the corner.It took a while for her to realise that the dreamy look on my face wasnt for her but for the bass. She got up and walked out of the room without a word. I think she knew she was beaten..

    [quote name='Mykesbass' post='846935' date='May 24 2010, 09:58 PM']Apparently (at least from the Turkish kids I went to school with 30 years ago) Cack means sh1t. In Middle eastern cultures, the left hand was reserved for wiping one's ar$e, and to offer the left hand to shake hands was a huge insult. Therefore, to call a left hander cack handed I would have thought fairly insulting. Sorry to seem pious, but when you have heard of the predjudice that left handers have faced - my mum (back in the 30's) was regularly beaten at school to get her to use her right hand then all of a sudden calling it sh1t handed doesn't seem so mild and meaningless after all.[/quote] I always used to say I was going for a cack when I was kid.Now I know where it comes from,thank you ! BTW I am also sh*t handed

    Is the 51 P bass pickup a noiseless one?
  20. keeponehandloose
    I think of it as the " B of the Bang" thing that runners do. When in the blocks at the start of a race,they aim to go on the B of the Bang that the gun makes.
  21. keeponehandloose
    True,but its what I use and its never been a problem.You can switch past the ones you dont want before you even hear them

    Boss LS2 line selector. 2 LOOPS AND A BYPASS INPUT. Loops A&B have gain controls. Select mode A/B/BYPASS. Each press of the pedal scrolls through and mutes the other 2.
