  1. Not to mention young Mr 40Hz's USA Sub.
  2. My Greco was a 34" scale and from my recollection so is the one currently f/s. I'm currently gassing over a very fine 32" scale ACG Mum's the word of course and mention it not to the ever tolerant Mrs ead.
  3. I have no frame of reference unfortunately, but I used to own this one (a little earlier in time than the black one on here) and it was a perfectly decent bass. The tone you describe is certainly there but didn't suit either of the bands I play in.
  4. There's a nice looking Greco EB-3 alike on here for sensible money....nothing to do with me I should add.
  5. Now sold. Thaks for all the interest and kind comments.
  6. The nut is 40mm. The J and P Silver Series shared a common neck and it sat between the two profiles. Not sure how to describe it but not a baseball bat, probably somewhere around a C or a D.
  7. None of my older basses appear so guessing it's a new thing? Surely only going to work well if everybody registers everything.
  8. Hopefully a good omen. If you want me to take a peek on your behalf, you have but to ask 🙂
  9. One of these...the bass itself is a Limelight that I commissioned as a replica of the main man's '72 Jazz. I've got the plain aged white p/g too, but couldn't resist getting the pearloid white one with the amalgamation symbol he has on the US sig basses (with pearloid block markers on the neck).
  10. Nelson is only a few miles from me. next to Colne (silent "L").
  11. Hi peeps For sale is my Squier Silver Series P bass that i acquired a little while ago (from the original owner I believe). The bass has sat pretty much unused for the last 9 years and is in excellent condition. There are two dings on the body, one near the bridge and the other near the pickup. The pictures make them look far worse that they are. Everything is original apart from one bridge saddle (A string) that has been replaced with a Fender item. The strings were ridiculously rusty when I acquired the bass and have been replaced. The truss rod works, there is very little fret wear. A very nice bass that I will be sad to see leave the fold, but I do have three other Ps so something had to give. By my scales the bass weighs 8.3lbs or around 3.7kgs, so nice and light. I have a new Fender gig bag that is included, but if I have to ship it would be a 'roadworn' but functional hard case. I prefer to meet up /deliver if possible and courier would be the last resort and at your cost. Price is a very reasonable £295 ovno Here are some pics. Please let me know if you have any questions or want to see any additional details of the bass. Thanks for looking.
  12. '66P, not the best pic, sorry.
  13. Do folk not understand that the world and its views change over time? If I don't like a particular lyric then I choose to not listen to it, I don't write to my MP. Just loop the Pistols "No Fun" endlessly....
  14. I have an ACG version. Top rock bass (for me at any rate).
  15. Snap on the Sandberg. The best non-F jazz bass in my possession is my ACG. I do also have a Limelight replica of Geddy's '72 Jazz which is pretty good and a proper vintage P which is great but not for gigging at every venue we play at!
  16. I used to own this bass (until I realised that I couldn't play 5-string fretless basses). All three pickups were active and the controls included a 4-way pickup up switch and a blend control as the filter preamp only had two channels. The bridge and neck were switchable between bridge only/both series/both parallel/neck only and the combo selected could then be blended with the middle p/up. Massively flexible tool but did also produce some odd phase cancellations. I recall that my favourite with a combination of the bridge and the middle pickups.
  17. I did once try the "well you only have one a*se, why do you need so many pairs of trousers" approach. Needless to say the casualty nurses were (slightly) more symathetic 😞
  18. Yup, good CD and a cracking voice for this kind of thing. Free definitely worth your time too.
  19. May I also suggest Hundred Seventy Split are worth checking out. Leo Lyons, formerly of Ten Years After (another great blues band), on bass.
  20. Paul recently purchased some strings from me and having discovered that we worked in close proximity very kindly wandered over to th'office to collect them. Top banana, thanks for your business.
