yorks5stringer Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 [quote name='DarkHeart' timestamp='1359310426' post='1952894'] why has he put 2 miss matched control knobs on when the black originals matched the rest of the hardware? `touch of class`? cheap and tacky more like! and why has he swapped the neck humbucker out for a flamin jazz bass pick up? the blokes an idiot. [/quote] "(Jazz Bass Pickup)[size="4"]gives a superb frequency range and is nearly as powerful as the twin coiled humbucker so needs just a small height differential to equalise the volumes." Nuff said ![/size]
V4lve Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Wonder what market research he has done. Presumably there are large handed guitarists out there waiting to snap this of a kind of butchery up.
MB1 Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 'V4lve' Wonder what market research he has done. MB1. He knows there's one in Bolton,at the back of the shops!

Moos3h Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I'm more suspicious about user 'http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/pelevincat' - seems to have bought rather a lot? Perhaps it's just another happy customer!

I think the Scheckter is not the same one that was for sale for £161, or whatever, that seems to have been sold to a different person, I hero's one seems like it was one knob short of an eq. Not the only one!

yorks5stringer Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Just re-read the Schechter 7 string blurb, apparently he does the "tuner reorientaion conversion himself". Would that be taking the Tuner out and leaving a big bloody hole? Useful if you are into Clapton era solos, you could stick an e-fag into it....

Or hang it up conveniently on the back of the door with my coat?...speaking of which... I'll get me coat! (and my guitar for my unfeasably large hands).
Protium Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I asked him if he could put 8 strings on it for people with really small hands. No reply.
Happy Jack Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Try asking about 12 strings for people with three hands ...
yorks5stringer Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Do you think he could convert a Chapman Stick to 4 strings for the Incredible Hulk?
PaulWarning Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I see our hero has lost his 100% feedback
BetaFunk Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 [quote name='PaulWarning' timestamp='1392072672' post='2364473'] I see our hero has lost his 100% feedback [/quote] I once received negative feedback for something i sold on Monday and the buyer received on Thursday. The buyer thought that they should have received it earlier and left negative feedback. Since feedback changed so only the buyer (the seller isn't allowed to) can leave feedback it has become totally worthless.
yorks5stringer Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I'll just get in before the lockdown......
yorks5stringer Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) In the interests of balance: "P-bass good copy with overhaul and full pro set up on new strings" AVOID sold me a piece of junk, that was unplayable and crackled the whole time! Only 1 bad feedback in 117 Edited February 11, 2014 by yorks5stringer
PaulWarning Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) it was interesting that it was a bass, wonder if anybody on here carried out the threat to buy one of his guitars? edit, I really don't see why this thread should be locked as long as we keep it adult, stick to the facts and avoid juvenile name calling Edited February 12, 2014 by PaulWarning

chrismuzz Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Sorry guys! I know the guy's a hero but best to close it early to avoid letting our displays of love get out of hand Edited February 12, 2014 by chrismuzz
