  1. That cheap enough for you? [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220572483884"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=220572483884[/url]
  2. National made most of the steel resonator guitars and basses but Dobro are the more familiar name so they ended up all being called Dobros regardless of who made them just like Hoover, Coke etc
  3. Thanks but I think I've had enough Stingray's. I draw the line at 13 (I think) lovely as they are to look at.
  4. [quote name='MB1' post='804891' date='Apr 13 2010, 02:10 PM']MB1. ...Surely its a P Nut?...Coat Collected! BUMP![/quote] You're a P Nut or at least some kind of a nut
  5. Neck, tuners, bridge and body all provisionally sold
  6. Neck and tuners provisionally sold - immaculate MIM Fender body still available. I may sell this fully loaded for the right price / trade - other wise I'm looking for somewhere in the region of £100 including postage to mainland UK
  7. Not sure if you've got my PMs or not but I may interested in a trade
  8. I may have a buyer for the neck so if anyone is interested in a shiny new black MIM Fender body (minus parts) and a set of vintage tuners then let me know. Once I have a buyer for all 3 then i can split the bass and keep a hold of the other bits unless there's interest there as well
  9. If memory serves me correctly its 43mm I'm at work so I'll C when I get home :brow: How can I tell if its a C or something else?
  10. I used my 1212L on a cab stand so that it was closer to me and at the right angle. I've used everything on that stand and have only just recently gone back to having my cab behind me after using a stand for the past 15 years Then again, I don't think a 2x15" would fit
  11. [quote name='merello' post='803623' date='Apr 12 2010, 12:39 PM']I have bought from this guy and I'll have to warn you all.... .....it's a struggle to get him out of bed in the morning! Good seller and I've seen the bass up close and it looks absolutely stunning.[/quote] I have a confession to make - when you came round for the Hartke combo I was still very, very drunk from the night before. I'm talking legendary drunkness.
  12. [quote name='BassJase' post='803592' date='Apr 12 2010, 12:13 PM']Those FretFX LED's look the business, I was gonna invest in some myself in the future but didn't know how well they actually fixed to a bass and if they stayed where they're meant to, are they good mate? ...and bump for a nice cracking looking bass [/quote] They are fantastic and stick on really well. They look the business when they're on.
  13. I seem to remember having one on my Modulus Flea bass and i can vaguely recall the same problem with the post stopping short and being a bit wobbly. I can't recall what I did but I'm sure I managed to fix it somehow.
  14. I remember when these were £16 from Thomann and that was only a year or 2 ago. I've used both types and personally, the closest I can find is Ernie Ball Slinkies - not the coated ones (haven't tried them) but the standard nickel ones. Think its the Hybrid set I use. There's a seller on Ebay doing 3 sets for £32 delivered. That's what i am using just now - don't feel rich enough to start spending £25 on a set of strings when i can get 3 sets for slightly more
  15. I've just had a good long look at it to check for any damage or marks. The body is perfect - no dings dents, scratches or swirls to be found The neck, considering its about 25 years old is in excellent condition as well with just a few tiny marks on the back and a bit of abrasion at the tip of the headstock. The back of the neck nearest the heel has some red paint on it from when a previous owner glued it to its original CAR body. I've never tried to get this off cos its relatively well hidden
  16. mummy One of my favourite basses in my favourite colour
  17. We played there last year - one of the loudest gigs we've done Full PA, sound engineer and an SVT II - if only more places were like that
  18. [quote name='Bassman' post='802609' date='Apr 11 2010, 02:03 PM']Hello, is the bridge "thru-body" please? thanx[/quote] No - its just more substantial than the stock Fender ones
  19. [quote name='12stringbassist' post='801904' date='Apr 10 2010, 04:26 PM'] I've been lucky with mine. I've had to do prectically nothing to any of them.[/quote] Oooh, a Blue Boy that's actually blue. This was my one I absolutely love the look of these and would love another but the lack of front arm contour and the issue when you want to play over the bridge pickup without the cover fitted put me off. One of these days I'll get myself a 4004
  20. Its always a dangerous time when I have a few weeks between gigs - I find myself buying stuff and then selling other stuff. Some of the things I buy never make it to a gig and are, instead, sold beforehand. So it is with little surprise that I am offering my very custom Fender Precision for sale. I could not find anything I liked to I decided to build it from mainly Fender parts. The neck is from a Mid 80s E Series Fender MIJ Precision, The tuners are from a 1978 MIA Fender, The body is from a brand new MIM precision with a date of October 2009 on it. The scratchplate is from WD and is made specifically for MIM Precisions so don't know if it will fit ones made in other factories, the bridge is my favourite Gotoh 201 and its finished off with a Jason Lollar pickup, CTS pots, Switchcraft jack and paper-in-oil cap. I fitted Fretfx LEDs to the side of the neck a few months ago as well. The only thing that would'nt be included is the Star Wars knob. I have the complete collection including the strap so it would be staying with me. For a straight sale I would be looking in the region of £500 but am open to negotiation. If I were to part it out then I would be looking for a buyer for each part before I could split it as I need to make sure that I have enough cash to buy myself a new bass. The individual parts are: Neck £200 Body £100 Tuners £180 Scratchplate £15 Bridge £15 I would be keeping a hold of the pickups and wiring as I plan to get myself another P bass. Maybe not now but at some point. I may try to remove the LEDs but if I can't then I would add £25 onto the price of the neck (half what I paid for them). Again, I'm flexible on price as long as its not rediculous For trades with my bass only I would be interested in quite a few different ones: Yamaha BB3000 or 5000 Ibanez SR506 or SR1016 Fender Musicmaster or Mustang Fender maple fretless precision I currently have my 3 gig old Orange Terror Bass available. i have a few interested parties but nothing solid yet. I would be happy to do a trade with this as well for something like: Musicman Stingray 5 string Warwick $$ 5 string Spector Euro 4 Being absolutely honest I don't have anything in particular that I am after. I tend to be very shallow when buying new stuff inthat if it looks good then I'm interested unless I've had one before and hated it. This also means that I dislike anything with lots of dings and dents. That should be everything covered so fire away if you're interested. If you're after a part then I'll draw up a wee list so that I know who wants what so when I have a new owner for everything then I'll be in touch and we can sort out payment and delivery.
