  1. Seller has posted all the questions and queries on the listing so maybe his lack of knowledge is reasonable?
  2. I know I nearly spilt my coffee.

  4. One for Fender experts. Is this for real / what is it? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221191522984?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

    Pulse gig Friday 15 Feb

    I see you managed to capture my bald patch perfectly
  6. Update for those following this thread. I received an e-mail from Minotaur today apologising for the situation and explaining that the site had been hacked and my order and e-mail never appeared. So it looks like they are still in business (good news). I may well take them up on the offer they have made me.
  7. Popped along to see Pulse, a bunch of young hopefuls playing music by this new up and coming beat combo Pink Floyd. Very good evening indeed; good lighting rig, great sound, and over 2 1/2 hours too! Bonus, a BCer on stage - see if you can spot him - to be fair he sold me the tickets. Here are some pics: [attachment=127833:Pulse 01 150213.jpg] [attachment=127834:Pulse 02 150213.jpg] [attachment=127835:Pulse 03 150213.jpg]

  9. +1 love those 9050CLs.
  10. Thanks kingforaday, I haven't noticed that Thomann sold them. Strap-wise I have acquired a very nice strap from our own walbassman on here.
  11. [size=5]For sale is this rather lovely Overwater by Tanglewood Aspiration Elite ([/size][size=5]top of the range[/size][size=5]) bass. The top is a lush slice of dark Wenge on an Ash body. The head stock is matched to the body. Year of manufacture is 2011.[/size] [size=5]The bass is in excellent condition with no blemishes to the finish that I can detect and has just been re-strung with a brand new set of Ernie Ball Slinky nickel wound strings in 40/55/75/100 gauges.[/size] [size=5]The bass comes with a Sumo gig bag and I'm looking for £350 which I think represents excellent value for money for an instrument[/size][size=5] of this quality[/size][size=5].[/size] [color=#0000cd][size=5][u]Specification:[/u][/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Body - Wenge top on White Ash[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Neck[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]3-piece Maple, bolt on[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Fretboard[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]Rosewood[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Tuners[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]Gotoh style mini[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Bridge[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]Overwater heavy duty[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Pickups[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]2 x Overwater soap-bars[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Electronics[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]Overwater active 3-band EQ[/size][/color] [color=#0000cd][size=5]Controls[/size][/color][color=#0000CD][size=5] - [/size][/color][color=#0000cd][size=5]Volume (pull for bright) / Pan / Treble / Mid / Bass[/size][/color] [size=5]This bass is the top of their entry level range and benefits from full Overwater design and components whilst being built in the far east to keep costs down.

  12. [quote name='Lowender' timestamp='1360427797' post='1970236'] You're entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own facts. Sgt Pepper is considered the first psychedelic/prog album. It was released before the Moddy Blues ever had an album out. [/quote] If memory serves the Moody's released their first album in 1965. Days of Future Passed was released a few month after Sgt. Pepper..

    Four strings are quite sufficient for me unless I'm playing my 5-string air bass, but that can be a bit tricky due to the added complexity
  14. Still heard nothing from Minotaur despite charic's intervention.

    OK spec. finalised. I took some inspiration from sk8's ACG bass and, always mindful of GreeneKing's comments on that very same thread, here's my spec.: Body: Wenge top on Alder Neck: 3-piece Maple with Maple board, 34" scale fretted Black hardware PB single split coil p/up ACG EQ02 3k The body was one that Alan had available: [attachment=127331:Graft Finn Special body Wenge top Zebrano veneer.jpg]
  17. [quote name='Ashborygirl' timestamp='1360609659' post='1973357'] You just have to look in the for sale section to see "good" 70s Jazz basses with pickup routes that look like Ozzy Osbourne did them with a spoon. [/quote] Is he allowed metal objects now?
  18. My amp has a -10dB pad button that takes care of most of the difference in output, then just a bit of tweaking on the on-board volume knob.
  19. It was inevitable, don't fight it!
  20. That does indeed sound like an awesome (sorry, but had to be said) bass. Looking forward to the pics...
  21. [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1360487485' post='1970989'] actually, just throw a stick... [/quote]

    Steady, steady. Just sorting out the spec as I was given certain budgetary restrictions, however Alan has been incredibly helpful. I'll share soon!
  23. Just sold some straplocks to Paul. Prompt payment, really easy deal and a pleasure doing business with him.
  24. Looking forward to that review dood.
