  1. I was running the Original 54's on my '51P tuned DGCF & they were fine, better I felt than at EADG Less stress on the neck What bass are you wanting them on? Cheerz, John Edit: Have you read the catalogue? [url="http://www.labella.com/catalog.pdf"]http://www.labella.com/catalog.pdf[/url]
  2. I've been looking for a red P for a while, (I think it's the Duck in me) couldn't believe my luck when this little beauty fell into my hands It needed a clean up, new jack socket, strings & a set-up, now it's P-perfect, unbelievably good to play, wonderful neck, only 8&1/2lbs & just feels so comfortable, it's like getting into bed with your dream girl/boy in satin silk sheets 100% original except for the new Switchcraft, Straploks & strings, I don't believe it had ever been apart & probably the factory fitted strings on Talk about coincidence, lifted the pick guard & the date stamp on it is June 06 2003, exactly 9 years to the day I bought it! Anyway, took it out in the sun for some photo's today It's still a bit shiny after me polishing it up, but it's that lovely Satin Nitro finish, Crimson Red Transparent #38.
  3. [quote name='jaydentaku' timestamp='1339413557' post='1687994'] I feel like criminal. [/quote] Annie are you OK? Will you tell us that you're OK, are you OK Annie?
  4. If I hadn't spent all my pocket money already this month I'd have bought that just for the colour & the neck. It looks lovely Tom
  5. OBBM cables for the win definitely - but the OP is in North Carolina - it's got to be easier to go local That's the one for the job - http://www.guitarcenter.com/Monster-Cable-Performer-500-Speaker-Cable-1-4--102584653-i1128650.gc
  6. Looks grrrrrreat & a lovely tint, looking forward to seeing it all together - good job nice
  7. ^^But we're bass players not bloody songsters^^
  8. [quote name='barneyg42' timestamp='1339262132' post='1686092'] This thread is now available in hardback...........The Origins of Tim! [/quote] How much? You should know by now - you have to state a price no wonder nobody buys anything bloody Tims

  10. Perhaps I'll send it back to Fender, from the vid's I've seen it takes them about 1or2 minutes to do Having the right tools would certainly help Yes I'd be quite prepared to pay £100 on a bass that was of any value, but not for a beater
  11. Cheerz - yes I was hoping to get a 'cheaper' job, not a pro & it's a r/w board BTW, no refin required.
  12. I bought a de-fretted P neck for a project but it doesn't fit the body, so I'm thinking of getting it re-fretted for another. Is there anybody here that can do - or know someone? Cheerz, John
  13. [quote name='Inti' timestamp='1339082849' post='1683388'] Ok my kind bass friends! He admitted after "checking it" a little bit better that it actually was a Highway 1. Thanks everyone so much! PS: And buy (Or trade) my Windmill! [/quote] Silly me I thought all the Windmills were in Holland So are you buying the HW1? ATB, John
  14. Yes American Standard would have string through body & be Polyurethane gloss finish. Check the bridge, HW1 does not have the 4 holes for string through. Ask the seller for the serial number & send Fender a email for proof. With the (non standard) hardcase, chrome covers & thumbrest (not quite in the standard place), I'd say it's been modified to look like something else, but definitely a HW1. Shame about the extra string tree I've no idea what the going rate for Fenders is in Stockholm but I'd say if it's what you want, it looks in perfect condition, with the extras it's not [i]too[/i] dear, if it plays as good as it looks Mine has barcode/0061286-950 under pickup which gives this Fender Service Diagram.

  15. It's all relative, how much is a beer in Stockholm?
  16. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1339010787' post='1682478'] £718.71 [/quote] I must have got a better rate £720.15 xe.com
  17. Highway One 2004 Logo same as mine & as already said Satin Nitro finish. BTW How much is that Pris: 8,000? in GB£?
  18. That home made 'Herbert' looks great! Mustard Good job Len - far better than the 'proper' thing I had for a while [url="http://www.log-jam.co.uk/logarhythm.html"]http://www.log-jam.co.uk/logarhythm.html[/url] now I just use a block of wood 10x6x2" with a bit of carpet on top & wooden floorboards
  19. Bought a P-bass pickguard from Andy, exactly as described & posted as arranged, 2nd time I've had the pleasure to deal with. Cheerz, John
  20. So if it's a Union 'Jack' bass then will it have to be used onboard ships?
  21. Don't do this at home kids - never NEVER leave a key in a chuck! Not even for a photo'!
  22. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1338673505' post='1678008'] Never understood the Antigua thing at all, but then I don't understand a lot of things... [/quote] Me neither I worked there (Antigua) & it was a shithole but never understood why the Antigua link
  23. There seems to be some bargains to be had this weekend, I've been looking at the American Specials - what are they like? Edit: I really really need some Candy Apple Red
  24. Frank Bello Bass = P-neck + J-body + P/J pickups, best of everything [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/kjon51/Fender%20Frank%20Bello%20Signature%20Bass/22082011861.jpg[/IMG]
