    SOLD thanks

    And responded thanks.
  3. Just trimming a couple of pedals I never really use. Both in excellent condition: [s]Pearl OC-07 Octave pedal - Excellent analogue octave pedal (MIJ in '80s I think) with 1 down, 2 down and, unusually, 1 up octaves available. Excellent tracking, and with the octave up option some really interesting sounds available. Comes with original box that is also in really excellent condition for its age and original instruction sheet. £95 posted - Reasonable offers also considered[/s] SOLD [s]Aguilar TLC Compressor - Well known quality compressor. No box with this one but will be well packed. Condition is excellent. £80 posted[/s] SOLD Thanks for looking. If you would like pictures of any particular detail please just ask.
  4. [quote name='krysh' timestamp='1355571951' post='1900030'] I love my active and passive basses. there is no better, just different. and it's all in your taste and your goals. [/quote] +1 to that.
  5. I've heard nothing for a couple of weeks. I know the p/g I have asked him to reproduce has been received along with payment, but only because I sent it 'signed for'.
  6. You may very well think so, but I couldn't possibly comment.

    Aria SB-101

    Can anybody clue me in on these basses please? Cheers
  8. [quote name='iiipopes' timestamp='1353633160' post='1876911'] Try the Fender 9050CL 45-60-80-105 flats set. Feel and tone. They converted me from rounds. [/quote] +1 I didn't need converting to flats, but these are great strings (imho)
  9. I've used Wizard 84s on a Jazz fretless albeit with a rosewood board and imho they were rather special.
  10. Anybody seen this? http://manchesterbasslounge.com/?p=2637
  11. My first fretless was a Yamaha RBX270 that I bought for very little on evilbay and upgrade once I decided fretless basses were for me. Had it for about 4 years so it must have been OK. There are often similar things on the 'bay if you want to gamble a bit.
  12. My sympathies to the OP. My digits have also had to deal with 30 years of rugby and several dislocations that I am now definitely noticing. As above, long warm up now required...
  13. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1354361650' post='1885155'] There's a band round our way called One foot in The Groove, apart from the singer they are all in their 60's! [/quote] love it, wish I'd thought of that. I'm definitely the 'father figure' in our band; greying but loving it.
  14. 1960 = absence of wonga in bank account
  15. I've been into PMT in Salford (or is it Manchester) and have been completely ignored several times - won't be going there again. I've only ever bought a new bass on line once and that was from the Bass Merchant who were marvellous. Other than that mostly on here or occasional evilbay purchases.
  16. [quote name='andydye' timestamp='1352806631' post='1867578'] Thanks matey, I'm so impressed with the preamp, it's enormously powerful! and yes it is taking a little while to get my head round but I'm already able to dial in appropriate sounds relatively quickly inbetween songs...time will only improve my ease with this monster! [/quote] Aaaaahhhhh! My fretless ACG build seems to be progressing well (same pre) and seeing this just increases the anticipation. I'll have to go and lie down in the dark with a damp flannel on my head now.
  17. Sorry, can somebody just remind me what this thread is about please?
  18. +1 for TIs... ...but also for Fender 9050CLs and Picato flats. Both of these around £20 new. I never could get on with D'Addarios although they do seem to improve a bit with age/use.
  19. [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1353609925' post='1876613'] I've contacted them twice over the last few months with queries about pickups which aren't on the website, and both times I've (eventually) had one-line answers of "We don't/can't do that. Sorry." [/quote] Same here regarding a rewind on some old J p/ups. Basically advised to buy a new set.
  20. Wise words from Dr Dave there against a sea of general blackness. Thanks, keep 'em coming...

    Help BC

    Donation made, lanyard purchased. Thanks for your efforts and keep up the sterling work guys and gals.
  22. The bass in question has a butterscotch blonde body. What pickguard colour would you have as a replacement? I've allowed for multiple choices (so I can vote for several combinations obviously ) Thanks for your help Mr Indecisive p.s. The Management reserve the right to completely ignore all advice and purchase something really silly.
  23. [quote name='Leen2112' timestamp='1353080394' post='1871434'] I saw the musical box a couple of times and they were fantastic, they even have a balding left handed drummer who sings!! I read that Peter Gabriel even took his daughter to see them to show her what Dad used to do. Check em out if you can. [/quote] Yeah, saw them do the whole of The Lamb this year. Very good it was too.
  24. Max just purchased some straplocks from me. Quick payment, very easy and professional to deal with. Thanks very much.
  25. Oh yes, Firth of Fifth, when Steve's solo starts still sends shivers up my spine when I hear it - those white lights on the album cover didn't half singe my hair when they were turned though. Going to see Steve on his Genesis Revisited II tour next year.
