  1. Past hour
  2. 😢 I've left it there. Might be a future project...
  3. Tech 21 Bass Flyrig V2 with power plug . With instruction manual and box. Versatile bit of kit. £268 posted
  4. Thanks mate. Just to stop people misusing it for nefarious reasons. Probably not really necessary on an old Musicmaster.
  5. Did a pedal trade with Ian. Hassle free, great comms, very happy!
  6. I did like Skipton. I think it was there that had the most upmarket Oxfam bookshop ever, no cheap paperbacks but first folio editions of properly expensive books. None on bass cab building though 🙄
  7. isn't it everyone's favourite compressor? best compressor on this earth, second best pedal second only to SANSAMP
  8. Grassington is lovely, since they film some of the Vets stuff there it's a lot more touristy. We looked at moving there when we came from London but chose Clapham instead. Skipton is a small market town. It has a genuine old castle and a really good Saturday market. It also has real night clubs according to my daughter. I would have no idea to be honest. There's great walks along the canal both north and south. You can cycle from Leeds to Skipton along the canal side. Quite easy apart from the locks at Bingley.
  9. Just be wary of the advice in this thread RE aging of the finish. The Squier CV series is gloss finish and if you take sandpaper to it or try to “age” or “wear” it through use, it won’t produce the same kind of wear that nitro finish will. It also won’t yellow with age as it cures (that’s why they add an amber tint to the gloss on the neck finish of the Squiers to create an effect, almost like fake tan) If you want a bass that will age nicely over time, nitro is the only option IMO (although there are cheaper options, like Limelight, second hand AVRI or probably even Nash that will give the spec for less than this specific model [Vintera Road Worn] of basses new at RRP)
  10. Enable is the input used to mute the amp.
  11. Yes, I'm UK based. Appreciate shipping isn't cheap. I pressed the button as finding a lightweight, medium scale with slim neck in excellent condition isn't easy. Is 1999 necessarily better than 2007 manufacture? It's a Yamaha Motion B Thanks.
  12. I have to agree with my honourable friend. Given the cost of it (incl taxes) I would be inclined to bail on the deal and wait. May be fine but, as Beedster says, a difference of almost a decade can mean a big difference in quality. Similarly, that is an opinion based on gut and zero knowledge of Yamaha basses.
  13. Hello. Have you managed to sell your aerodyne? Hard to find anything lefty in the US.
  14. Are you based in Aus? If you're in the UK, courier and import costs will be quite high and if there are any further issues with the bass and you have to return it you could find yourself out of pocket. Seems a bit odd that a reputable seller got the year of production wrong which does make me wonder if they've made any other errors? I don't know the model, but in other model/ranges an 8-year difference in manufacturing dates can mean a significant difference in quality and value
  15. Usually resting against my hip, but occasionally a bit more relaxed...
  16. Thanks for your thoughts guys. Appreciated. Ah I see- the bathroom stuff I guess? Suppose that gives it some hold to aid the single screw but not so much you couldn't remove in future. I suppose hipshot ultralight only have one screw don't they. If I get time this evening I may remove one existing and see if either of the gotoh holes line up exactly. It isn't, but this could still well be the most sensible solution 😉
  17. Advice please guys. I've paid for a Yamaha Motion bass from a reputable seller in Australia. The advert indicates it was made in 1999. After paying for it I asked for the serial number out of curiosity. The seller has sent photos and explained that he misinterpreted and it is actually a 2007, quite possibly an innocent mistake. It's one of the last made at the Hangzhou factory in China. I know there's a big debate about whether Chinese made instruments are inferior. It is ideal for me being medium scale, 37mm nut and very light at just over 3kg, apparently in excellent condition. I'm a relative novice. Can wiser heads give opinions on whether I go ahead? Thanks Dave
  18. Tasty, great harmonies too! 👌🏼
  19. ***PRICE DROP NOW £1300*** 2010 US Stingray, 2EQ, CAR with rosewood board. One of the limited edition 133 basses, full fat ‘ray but with a soft gig bag case instead of a hard shell job. This is in excellent condition with one very minor ding on the top edge, and the pickguard is quite marked but obviously easily replaceable. Comes with a Hipshot D-tuner (long key though instead of short… doh), if you want the original tuner key I’ll chuck it in. I’ve also replaced the pickup with a Nordstrand MM4.2, which sounds flippin’ great. She’s quite heavy (10lb) but with a decent wide strap it feels ok. ***EDIT*** now comes with the option of a Warwick Rockbass semi-rigid case - photos added. Loathe to post this but can at buyer’s (insured) expense, or can meet in person at either Portsmouth, Southsea, Southampton or Lymington (I’m on the I.O.W.)
