  1. Good condition apart from a couple of scratches and some of the lettering over the gain reduction meter has worn off a bit. The output op-amp chip has been replaced with a better spec one so this unit will not suffer from the same fate as many others. This is a known issue detailed here: Link Has Velcro on bottom. No box or manual. Price includes postage.
  2. Both the track and the vid are great. Thanks for sharing!
  3. 1994 Warwick Fortress One fretted four-string in 'Honey Violin'. Brass Just-A-Nut with individually adjustable slots. MEC P/J pickups with active 2-band EQ (push-pull volume pot to switch to passive). 3-piece wenge neck and wenge fingerboard with 'bell brass' frets. Recessed straplock fittings. All original to my knowledge (I got it used in 2004-ish), in Warwick gig bag. I've only ever used it as a backup so very little wear and tear - IIRC I've literally played one gig with it. It's lived in a hard case 99% of its time with me. Based in Sheffield. Difficult to price as I've only ever seen a couple (except the other one I own) and the last one on here sold quite a while ago. If I'm way out on the pricing, please advise accordingly and I'll try not to be offended. Cheers.
  4. Hate the string spacing, and small hands restrict me to a 4. I do use a BEAD-tuned 4 (actually it’s Bb/Eb/Ab/C#) when required but most of our material is in drop C# or drop C.
  5. I found the low tension of Superbrights too much to deal with. Shame, as they are relatively inexpensive and come in suitably heavy gauges to accommodate my excessive down-tuning.
  6. Received this from Tom at COG this morning, and it was too good not to share.
  7. I have some DRs on my Jazz (can’t remember which type though) which have stayed bright an awfully long time. Comparatively expensive but IMO worth it.
  8. D’Addario Pro Steels and Elites Stadium Series Stainless spring immediately to mind.
  9. Recently bought a pickup from Nick. Very easy to deal with, good comms and prompt delivery. Cheers Nick!
  10. As above, I am also a beneficiary of Tom's clearout! Great comms, speedy delivery, well packed and a good price. A pleasure to deal with. Thanks Tom!
  11. Hi mate. Any idea of the shim thickness that would be required?
  12. @Phil Starr Just a quick question if I may. When we were briefly discussing moving the port holes in the baffle (earlier in the thread) you said that it's better if the speakers are placed off-centre in the baffle to reduce cab resonance, yet on the plans for the larger 50l cab the speaker cutout is dead centre. Is this just simply due to the limitations of space in the baffle for the speaker and four ports?
  13. Beat me to it! I think he also used it on "Under The Bridge", but that might just be because the video for that track shows him playing the Stingray?
  14. Well, thanks for making my own efforts look remarkably amateur! 😭
  15. So are you saying you still get sound out of it, and it’s just that the meter doesn’t work (it just stays fully lit all the time)? You don’t actually plug an instrument into it in the video so I’m not clear on the problem.
  16. Guitarist in my band uses one of these. Apologies for the ridiculously long url: https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Palmer-CAB-M-Passive-Cabinet-Merger/T2K?origin=product-ads&campaign=PLA+Shop+-+GENERIC&adgroup=GENERIC&medium=vertical_search&network=google&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=37676d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=127201494799&gclid=CjwKCAjw9-HZBRAwEiwAGw0QcQ-aNao-LxDaZXMmoGSYO4FQkX801vR70WaBEZKYw-RNscyWMu8HehoCDdcQAvD_BwE
  17. Always. Heavy rock, with a pick 95% of the time.
  18. +1 for Fuzzdog. I particular enjoy these on my builds: https://shop.pedalparts.co.uk/Aluminium-finished_12x17mm_knob_-_black/p847124_8388607.aspx These from Jed's Peds are also rather fetching: https://www.jedspeds.co.uk/product-page/aluminium-knobs-1
  19. Not yet, but it's in the pipeline. At Phil's recommendation I'll be doing a pair of the slightly larger 50l "Mk 1" cabs once my guitarist gets the materials sorted.
