  1. Past hour
  2. Yep, often people come out with this rather than just say it’s not their thing. I've even found it with bandmates, with people in one band reluctant to come and see my other band for example.
  3. Fantastic bass Multi Effects Pedal in a rugged metal chasis. Very little home use. New batteries just fitted. Quality 10ft guitar cable TheVox StompLab 1Bis acompact, budget-friendly bass multi-effects pedalfeaturing modeling technology from Vox's acclaimed VT+ amps, offering 10 amp models, 12 cabs, 8 drive/pedal effects, 9 modulation, 8 delay, 3 reverb, and noise reduction, with 100 presets, 20 user slots, a built-in tuner, and headphone jack, all in a durable metal casing powered by batteries or an adapter, designed for ease of use with style-based sound categories .
  4. Des bought a Jazz p/u cover from me. Great comms, prompt payment, nice and easy to deal with. Nice guy.
  5. Yes done by Bow Finishing. The finish is absolutely flawless but they’re not cheap. I had a P body in Tidepool and really couldn’t gel with it, so got this done. Also bought a loaded pickguard from an American Professional II and a Mexican neck, Hipshot tuners. Only fiddly bits were cutting the nut slots and soldering in the two ground wires.
  6. I mean, yes. God, yes!
  7. Only realising now David that I needed another set for an incoming Bass, will PP you the funds if still available...
  8. I’ll settle for something that glows like this…:)
  9. Ordered someLaBella double ball black tape wounds on Sunday , arrived early Tuesday morning . They look and sound fantastic, rekindled my love for the Steiny .
  10. I just bought a pedal from Dan, and everything was smooth. Timely delivery, pedal well packaged and as described. Thanks man!
  11. For anyone interested in the Streamer I’ll be playing in Twickenham on Friday, Southport on Saturday and Hornchurch on Sunday. Happy to bring the bass along for potential buyers 😎
  12. Very cool (to me) and a further demonstration that tort goes with everything! Where did the body acquire its orange sparkle? Custom refinish?
  13. Weightshaming, seriously?! Come on man, it's 2025!! 😊
  14. A good description of my band!
  15. Those were the days. Mary Hopkin
  16. That's outrageously cool.
  17. Today
  18. NOOOOOOOOO!!! I’m reclaiming orange back for decent folk.
  19. Trumpie the Precision?
  20. If you want to be doing chordal work like Janek, I’d suggest making sure you spec narrower string spacing (16.5mm string spacing on Janek’s basses usually). It makes a world of difference when you’re moving between chord shapes at speed.
  21. One thing about ordering a custom bass is you can never be exactly sure what the result will be. Owning a bass by the luthier already is a good starting point. I notice you’re specs are inspired by Rocco Palladino and Janek - two players with a very different specs and sounds - so to expect one bass to sounds like both of those is asking too much, especially from a builder who manufactures for neither.
  22. Looks awesome
  23. This one’s a customer commission, so the customer is always right… unless it’s truly horrific, at which point we pause, laugh nervously, and then have a sensible conversation about why maybe we shouldn’t do that. I always try to use one-piece bodies where I can — so far, that’s been the case on all my builds — as it forms the main structural backbone of the instrument. I’m perfectly happy with a two-piece drop-top, but I like the core of the bass to be a single slab if possible. Entirely unnecessary? Possibly. Deeply satisfying? Absolutely. A P/MM in full stealth black is still whispering bad ideas in my ear though…I found this matt black nitro paint from a paint brand I’ve used before and think it might make an amazing finish on a bass; https://ebay.us/m/3sJlTs Paired with either a full matt or satin nitro clearcoat🤔 You know where I am if you feel the need to. 😄
  24. Up for sale is this passive Sterling by Music Man Pete Wentz signature StingRay bass in a very eye catching Fiesta Red finish. I had a change of heart and withdrew my 40th anniversary Squier Jazz ad recently, so have put this up for sale as although I love it, it's the bass getting used least with my band and I've recently bought another bass. This is a very cool, passive StingRay in fantastic condition (small scratch on the back of the headstock pictured in the only sign of wear), with one of my favourite necks I've ever had on any bass. Roasted maple, stays straight throughout all seasons and feels great in the hand for those who like a chunkier bass neck. This also comes fitted with Dunlop Straploks and crucially; high quality Schaller BM tuners to replace the stock tuners which were to be blunt, utter garbage. As a passive bass with a single humbucker with just volume and tone controls it's less versatile than a regular StingRay, but it sounds great and it's a snarling rock beast that you can also get a lot of mellower tones out of. You will get most tonal variety from how and where in relation to the pickup you play it, rather than the tone control to bring out the dynamics of the fat sounding pickup. Also comes with a good quality Ritter gig bag; has a broken handle (as pictured) but all other straps and handles are in good working order. I would much prefer collection in person or half-way meet if you're reasonably close to Brighton in the South East. However, I do have a sturdy cardboard box to send this in so could look into sending at an additional cost to the buyer, and at their own risk (as it's not in a hard case so can't be insured by courier services). Please see my feedback for assurance of past honest dealings on the forum: Any questions, send me a message. Thanks.
  25. Lovely, if I didn’t already have one I’d be checking my wallet
