    string death

    I'm not a big fan of the NYXLs, as a serial D'Addario user I tried a set out but now I'm back on my preferred set for fretted basses the EXL170BTs. I am now hoping that these don't get discontinued.
  2. Can somebody please tell me what style is; I'm a bass player after all?
  3. Good pints folks, will get measuring and photographying asap. If it helps I'm 6'3" and I had to shorten it from full stretch length. I've just been on their website and I think it's this one but not 100% sure on that front: http://www.harvest-guitar.com/en/Cow-Antique-The-Classic-oxid.html
  4. Just sold Jon a harness. Totally stress free one of the good guys. Many thanks for your business.
  5. For sale is my Harvest leather strap. It's nice and soft and in good condition. Just not being used. £15 posted to mainland UK. I'll sort a pic or two out. NOW SOLD - Many thanks for the interest.
  6. Favourite: The real kick in the guts from bass pedals at live gigs (in case i have the terminology wrong I am referring to the ones that look like organ foot pedals). Least favourite: Probably synthesized hand claps.
  7. For things Fender Japan try this: https://support.fender.com/hc/en-us/articles/214343783-How-can-I-find-out-when-my-Japanese-made-instrument-was-manufactured- For the other one not so sure I'm afraid. Maybe the BC hive mind can help.
  8. I went through a variety of sets before I found out that I really liked the D'Addario EXL170BT sets which now inhabit all of my fretted basses. I have tried their new NYXL sets but they don't do it for me in quite the same way so I'm hoping that the EXLs don't get taken out of production any time soon. On the upside pretty inexpensive next to your GF's favourites!
  9. Is anybody still waiting for their pickups to be returned?
  10. Interesting thread that caused me to revisit my '66P again. When I was looking to buy I deliverately sought out a vintage bass that had been played rather than cherished, so to speak, in the hope that the wear would point to a bass that people had enjoyed. So my bass has scratches, wear marks and pickguard that is slighly warped and a few corrosion marks on the hardware. To my ears, and those of others it sounds great though. The neck has a beautiful feel to and I enjoy playing it as often as possible.

    Bought some strings from Mark. Smooth and easy and he went above and beyond to get them in the post to me quickly. Many thanks.
  12. All this talk of PJs kicked off bad GAS. Ended up getting this yesterday; anybody remember these? Judging by the serial number it's one of the original batch that came over and is in mint condition. Cost me less than £150 and local too, it was clearly meant to be
  13. For sale is a P bass harness I bought from our very own Kiogon a few months for a bass that I sold. I hung onto this for a short while thinking to use it elsewhere but in the end it is surplus to requirements. It was made for a Korean Squier and has the small pots due to the smaller cavity. It will therefore pretty much fit anything. £25 posted by 1st class to the mainland UK. NOW SOLD THANKS
  14. Why did you post that when I was drinking coffee? Will need to get a fresh shirt out now and receive statutory reprimand from SWMBO
  15. The sheer horror of it, I can't image that's legal. I'll turn myself in right away. Officer....
  16. Or I could get some made up as "Indiscreet of Preston" and pass them off as your work?
  17. Can you make me a dozen of these please as I've some "Fenders" to sell.
  18. Antoria Tele bass that I stupidly sold to a collector/dealer. Beautiful flame on the neck and board too.
  19. Not sure where you are in the general firmament, but you are very welcome to come and check mine out drlargepants.
  20. I'm not sure, probably I suspect. Certainly not stickers.
