  1. [quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1452002996' post='2945371'] HG Mould spray. Very good stuff. [/quote] Actually the thread title is 'Mold'. Isn't that a town in Wales??
  2. [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1452002962' post='2945370'] I do wonder if there are ways to build a sleeve to thicken the neck of a bass... [/quote] More trouble than it's worth, I'm sure! Probably end up looking like that abomination of a 4-string Warwick that someone made into a 5-stringer...
  3. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1452000736' post='2945340'] You need to get some advice about improving the circulation of air in your roof space. [/quote] +1. This is the problem. There should be ventilation bricks in the loft - check they're not blocked with clag or goit.
  4. Foundations are fantastic basses - the super ferrite pickups are HOT. Just too narrow a nut-width for me, unfortunately. But if this is something you can deal with then there are huge bargains out there to be had. The 91 Foundation I had briefly was light, balanced well, sounded great, and the one-piece maple neck was as good as anything you'll see. A classic USA-built proper pro bass for peanuts.
  5. You're welcome mate, it just stopped off briefly at my place on its way home. Looks much happier in the proper company. I only have two P Basses me, but I'm working on the third...
  6. [quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1451990552' post='2945212'] Takes me back. Mine was maroon. [/quote] Was that a factory finish, or a refin? I know that 'cherry' was an option.
  7. [quote name='DaveFry' timestamp='1451989811' post='2945199'] ...Ebony fellers use elephants to haul the trees to the nearest river... [/quote] I think you'll find 'ebony fellers' is racist.
  8. Bah! Hurry up, or I'll have to start talking to members of the family.
  9. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1451919453' post='2944568'] My white G&L SB1 has become known as the bra worrier [/quote] I'm confused now, I thought YOU were the bra worrier. Isn't that what the business with the injunction was all about?
  10. [quote name='sprocketflup' timestamp='1451916987' post='2944540'] Steak nad kidney pie? [/quote][quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1451917156' post='2944544'] Or maybe a Goan Curry? [/quote][quote name='cameltoe' timestamp='1451917463' post='2944546'] Duck in Plum sauce [/quote] These are great suggestions, but I think I'll go for tongue in cider.
  11. [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1451915886' post='2944517'] Alternatively, she might make your nads into a favourite dinner. [/quote] The rules of the forum prevent me from adequately replying to your comment and I'm already pushing my luck.
  12. [quote name='cameltoe' timestamp='1451915344' post='2944502'] This thread will also serve as evidence to Mrs Cameltoe when I walk through the door later today with it under my arm and a hole in the account to explain. [/quote] For sure! It's an investment with a guaranteed return, no worries. The current mrs discreet would probably make me my favourite dinner and kiss me on the nads.
  13. Gross. I would suggest Elixir Nanoweb coated strings. More expensive but they last longer.
  14. [quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1451915284' post='2944497'] ...maybe it's just a sign of madness anyway? But who cares? [/quote] Not caring about your madness is a sign of madness.
  15. Mine are called 76, Dakota and Hayman. Dakota is a colour and Hayman is a brand. You don't want to get too personal, in case something happens to them or, God forbid, you need to sell one.
  16. Off the top of my head the RBI is two hundred quid's worth at least and I would imagine a QSC power amp to be a similar value if not more, so yes, a bargain.
  17. Davie bought a Peavey bass from me. Super-fast payment and great comms, plus he was very tolerant of PorcelFarce taking their own sweet time delivering to Scotland over the Christmas holiday - which was annoying - but he was philosophical about it. At least they got it there in one piece. Enjoy the bass Davie and a happy new year.
  18. [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1451859462' post='2944173'] Is that a Roger Waters special? [/quote] You mean just another brick - oh, right.
