Neat clamp for jack socket on DB tailpiece - place your orders!

[Clarky]

I am in Frankfurt next Wednesday on biz but - assuming my schedule allows - I will try to pop in to Lando Music where Jonas Loehse sells a rather neat little screw on clamp that allows you to attach your pickup jack socket to the tailpiece (see link below). After my Full Circle debacle (see earlier thread from me) I plan to mount my FC jack on the rear of my tailpiece with one of these little contraptions.

I am happy to pick up some extra clamps if any DBers would also like one - they are Euro 5 each and i would pass on to you at cost plus the cost of postage. Let me know - and I add the health warning that all of the above is dependent on whether my schedule leaves me a free 30 minutes at some point

Brilliant. I wanted to order one of these when I got my Ehrlund but it seemed like a pain to do. Put me down for two of them, I'll put one on my Realist as well.

[Mr Bassman]

I could use a couple more please.

[Clarky]

OK chaps, so thats 4 so far plus I will have a couple

[Beer of the Bass]

Hi Clarky, these look great. Could you put me down for two please, one jack and one XLR size?

[BassBod]

I'll be up for two - to fit the Realist jack socket. PM me...if the mission goes according to plan!

[Clarky]

Looks like I will need a sack at this rate!

[Owen]

Coolness. Put me down.

[jwbassman]

These look great, I'll have a couple too please, not sure what size I'll need, I've got a Bassbalsereit but with a standard jack socket but its got the locking thingy like the last pic on the page in the link, so whatever size that is - hope that makes sense... cheers

[/quote]If it's a standard jack size I assume it's the standard (non XLR) clamp?

[steve]

Hi Clarky, can you put me down for two jack socket sizes pls? ta

[steve]

Actually, can I change that to one jack-sized clamp and one of the locking jack sockets with clamp (the 12 Euro ones). I'm happy to paypal the cash over in advance if the order is starting to get too big

[Clarky]

OK, so thats

Clarky - 2 jack clamps
TNIT - 2 jack
Mr_B - 2 jack
Beer of B - 1 jack, 1 XLR clamp
BassBod - 2 jack
jwb - 2 jacks (I will double-check these fit locking socket)
Owen - 1 jack
Steve - 1 jack, 1 locking socket/clamp

Grand total - 13 jack clamps, 1 XLR clamp, 1 locking socket/clamp

Please let me know if this is wrong or any additions. FYI, I emailed Lando and they have plenty in stock so the only risk is my schedule doesn't allow me to time to pop in (right now its looking good)

Cripes, you'll need a santa sack. I won't add to your burden, but I wonder could you ask the seller if he'd do mail order? The gizmo sounds just the biz.

[Clarky]

He does do mail order but the cost is prohibitive when buying a cheap item like this, which is why I offered. Gwaaan, do you want me to put you down for one or two?

[Beer of the Bass]

Excellent. Let us know if you want paying beforehand, though I guess if your schedule is uncertain you may not. You're definitely owed a pint by a substantial chunk of basschat!

Nope, let me ensure I buy the clamps etc first and then I will PM everyone individually for addresses and let everyone know the cost (will be Euro 5 per clamp, at whatever exchange rate I get on Wednesday, plus 60p postage I guess)

[bassace]

Will you be taking a Transit, Clarky?

Fortunately the clamps are very small! Any use to you Roger?

[bassace]

I have developed the Bassace range of clamps (yes, really) but because my photo attachment skills are rubbish I have a customer base of one - me! I've had one of Jonas's clamps through my hands at one time and it was very good indeed.

[TPJ]

Can I have 2 please Clarky.

[Clarky]

Sure thing!

Two would be great, thanks clarky. Star=you.

[Clarky]

Grand total (incl 2 each for TPJ and Fatback) - 17 jack clamps, 1 XLR clamp, 1 locking socket/clamp

Think I'd better call it quits at that or I will run out of carrying capacity!
