Niceguyhomer' current crop

[niceguyhomer]

I woke up to some decent light this morning so I whipped it out and snapped a few of my gleesome threesome.

Spector Euro LX5 / ACG02 preamp
Spector Rebop 5FM DLX
Pimptastic Mexican P







A shaky one of the Euro but it's the only one I've got that shows the flame off accurately



Do I make you horny baby...do I?



Finally my rig...

[niceguyhomer]

...a couple more of the LX/ACG

[GreeneKing]

Very nice Alan, Waiting for the sun to make an appearance here so I can photo 7 basses.

I think it may be artificial light again

That Euro is fantastic. There's something about a red stain on highly figured maple..

[niceguyhomer]

Thanks Matt - it'll look even better when I put black hardware on it

+1, the figuring on that is gorgeous

[MythSte]

Have you been in what used to be sound control in preston recently Al? Theyve got some cracking basses in there, a load od sandbergs and a beautifull 70's RI Jazz that i very almost put money down for. I had to run out the shop!

Lovely Lot youve got there!

Great pics

Can't go wrong with a bit of trans red. I take it the ACG pre has made a difference.

Yeh - it's a big improvement over the Tone Pump - the bass still sounds like a Euro but does an awful lot more besides now. I don't know if I'll keep it cos it's fairly heavy and I have a shoulder problem that won't go away

Oh no you don't, it looks the beaulex with gold.

[Machines]

Agreed, that gold bridge is seriously snazzy. Gold knobs would be too much though..

[OutToPlayJazz]

Love that flamed maple, red stain Euro! Stunning Is that the one you installed the ACG pre into?

Rich.

[niceguyhomer]

Thanks Jon - wish I'd moved the bloody plant first though

Yeh that's the one Rich.

If your shoulders still giving you jip, have you tried a Comfort Strapp (with 2 p's).

Definitely helps with the weight thing, I can actually play my Conklin standing up.

From the Fishergate side of town you head across the ringroad at the bottom of Corporation St,head up towards the Uni and it's the first road on the right,(just after where Maplins used to be)head towards Friargate and its the first shop on the right.

ps, nice gear Al.

[cetera]

Beautiful bass choices Al!

And the same goes for the rig..... I'd love to hear that GBE750....

[Tait]

i love that precision, its about the only bass with gold hardware i do like mind, but even so, its so... i cant think of a word for what i mean, but its really cool..

[niceguyhomer]

Thanks a lot for the kind comments fellas. Just ordered a brushed gold pickguard for that P from WD - website says it'll be 1-2 weeks and the email confirmation I got says it'll be four weeks but could be longer. I could swim to the US and pick one up quicker.

[spree]

that Jeannies place no use?

[niceguyhomer]

May well end up doing that spree but the last two I got from Jeannie's ended up being quite expensive in the end.

[Soulfinger]

Lovely P there - good move!

Re. pickguard: Is it the gold anodized thingy you want? Thomann has them in stock:

Thanks for that but that looks like a 10 hole jobby wheras mine has 13 holes - I expect they won't align properly.
