  1. Past hour
  2. G&L is pretty '80s! https://richtonemusic.co.uk/g-l-tribute-series-l-2000-left-handed-bass-3-tone-sunburst-2nd-hand/
  3. It's also just possible to use spade terminals which crimp to the wires without soldering, though I recommend soldering if you can do it.
  4. If it helps this is the back of the Speakon sockets. They are neatly marked as +1 and -1 the +1 is connected to the +1 on the second socket and then to the + or red terminal on the speaker. If you use a jack socket then you are very naughty, but the tip of the jack is the +1 and the sleeve is the -1.
  5. We all get it, you’re not a fan of Peter Hook. Loads of people are, myself included. The thing with all this comparison stuff is that no one’s right and no one’s wrong, you simply can’t add a measurable quantity to what’s essentially an emotional response, it’s different for everyone and that’s what makes the world go round. This whole debate is like comparing dick size, a pointless exercise that leaves everyone feeling a bit inadequate.
  6. The one cab solution: 1200W @ 4ohm. This is by far the best cab I've owned, but it only goes out once a year for the odd gig without IEM, so it has to go to make room for more relevant gear. Very good condition - no marks or scuffs apart from slight scratches in the handles as seen in the photos. Official Vanderkley cover included - also in very good condition apart from wrinkles from being stored. Dimensions: H x W x D, 59 x 50 x 41 cm Weight: 20 Kg / 44 lbs Not thinking about posting it at this stage. Will drive within reason for a meet up - just PM me.
  7. Thanks I've discovered that for a five string I need wide spacing pmd you
  8. @Stub Mandrel I'll try and make gaskets for the jack sockets and for the plate. That would be neater than sealant, which knowing my luck, would mean I'd attach myself to the cabinet, never to be released. Much like Hans Solo in his Carbon tomb . Rob
  9. Brooks SparkleBird. In Cobalt Blue candy finish
  10. Stenback basses don't show up very often at all. His vision of the Jazz Bass is the best you can find. I guess this one must also sound terrific, but I'm not a fan of the look, that said. GLWYS.
  11. When your boing has been boinged out.
  12. Stuggle? I've got 18 year old Chromes on my 76 P and they are great got Chromes on a Warwick 5 these are only 18 months used, all good Chromes are by their nature what I consider a stiff or tight string , they certainly couldn't be marketed as Low Tension
  13. The neck specs are: 34” scale neck 38mm (1 5/8”) nut weight is 3.9kg (8.6lbs) cheers
  14. How much wider is this, I presume at the nut, than the standard version? My OLP MM5 was 43mm from memory.
  15. Seriously Paul, if I had the woodworking abilities God granted to gerbils, I'd be over there like a shot to help you. Common sense tells me your chances of success are at least ... oh I dunno ... improved by keeping me 10 miles away.
  16. Hard to tell without any photo as it could be anything from an old Japanese brand to a cheap Korean bass, or a full assembly...
  17. Ok thank you.
  18. Excelsior!!!
  19. Probably not to be honest, I'm pretty set but happy for any to be thrown out there at me on DM
  20. Today
  21. Tra la laa. Skipping forward through the tulips.
  22. I did see that thread however I was a little bit concerned given that the last post was almost 10 years ago! I'll have a Google of some of the names in there anyways though, cheers.
  23. Yup this gap, and that front face of the block which was detached from the front. Also explains the angled end pin. Exactly as I deduced must be the case. You can all laugh at me when I'm head in hands with an expired bass and a top that wont glue back on straight... Or you can applaud as I proudly play it back to life! (fingers crossed)
  24. Dignity - Porcupine Tree or Deacon Blue
  25. Happy days Kit is great when it works and the absolute worst when it does not.
  26. It's best to minimise leakage, but most have some porosity around the connectors, especially if using jack sockets. If you use a vinyl covering then the edges will seal well enough, but if on a hard surface a bit of sealant wouldn't be a bad idea.
