  1. Past hour
  2. Took the Poseidon V out last night and remembered that I still haven't changed the strings from 45s to 40s. A night of technical hitches - my Variax acoustic wouldn't power up (battery holder, not the Line 6 original which I've mislaid, played up), someone else managed to turn the volume right down on his guitar while putting on a capo, some shenanigans around a guitar and pedalboard, and at the end of the evening, in our final jam (the customary Freebird outro) after I'd gone walkabout to the back of the room and was heading back, my sound cut out. Not wireless, not pedal, amp. The power lead had pulled out slightly. With that pushed back home, we finished the song. Featured band was a punk and post-punk band doing assorted covers, Green Day, Weezer, Beastie Boys to name a few.
  3. bought a pedal from Carl. Simple and straightforward deal. Arrived superbly well packaged. Would happily buy from him again
  4. here’s how it sounds
  5. Bought a Mooer pedal from Carl. Straightforward, easy deal. Thanks mate
  6. Updated to add proof of ownership photo
  7. The product description on that very page includes "Integrated Bluetooth allows effortless audio streaming and remote mix tweaks via the Alto Mix Control App." (third paragraph).
  8. Just received my order through today. Does this look right to you? They're the same strings but in 2 different styles of packaging
  9. I had a lot of fun playing through this at last nights rehearsal. It’s the first time I’ve been in a room with amps and a drum kit playing rock music for about 8 years! After 5 years of silent stages, in-ear monitors and acoustic guitars. I had completely forgot how flippin’ loud it is 🤣 Still, the trusty ACS just about saved my lug holes. Dusted off the old faithful Jazz Bass which I’ve had since I was 13 and it all sounded blooming marvellous! It’s nice to feel bass again! This was my dream rig for about 10 years, of which I never achieved. I had the head with a 2x10 & 1x15 but could never justify the 8. I still kick myself regularly for shifting my old ABM rig!
  10. A trip to my friendly local motor factors later... I stuck the badge on with number plate sticky foam. For completeness, I hacksawed the fixing bolts the badge came with and glued them in the bolt holes with black gasket silicone - and ran a thin bead around the edge of the white sticky foam so you can't see the white.
  11. Like the other posters, I hope things take a turn for the better very soon. GLWTS.
  12. My set arrived about a week ago. Only used them at home so far, but couldn't be happier with them.
  13. They could call them the Fartex Precision and Fartex Jazz and even the Fartex Professional (all noise reducing)
  14. A 70s Vintera P bass. B neck, 70s voiced pups and available in natural (ash body) and mocha. Both with maple boards. Fender to use the jaguar shape and put dark sounding humbuckers in there so it sounds like a Gibson. A Gibson & Epiphone flying v bass.
  15. Oscillate Wildly - Marr/Rourke/Joyce
  16. Advert updated, now blue body with Maple mex neck and a price drop 😊
  17. Hi Chris, Seems I don’t automatically get a notification when someone replies! I’ve PM’d you the number. Terry
  18. The Norfolk special
  19. I used to have a Zilla 2x12 which was great. Not Barefaced light, but still manageable. Completely customisable and the guys there were spot on.
  20. Thank you brother 🙏 It's an amazing pedal

  22. Hi guys. Here it is, my 74 fender jazz. Incredible sounding bass and the easiest bass I've ever played. Let's start with the neck. As most of your are aware, 74 was the first year they did the maple/pearl block inlays. And I think the last year before going to 3 bolt necks. What makes this one so damn good as that it was made by herb gastelum the neck guru of fender for 52 years! The neck is stamped herb g. It has had a brass nut installed at some point in its career. The body is sunburst as you can see with the usual dings you'd expect from a 52 year old bass. Stamped H Ferry who was another well known fender employee. It has had a modification back in the day, someone cut out for a bigger pickup to the neck position. This sits behind the pick guard and has not changed tone in anyway. The bridge has been upgraded to a baddass 2. This looks like a very old modification and seems quite common with older fenders. The pickups have been changed, I would say sadly, but these sound unbelievable so although not original it is the sweetest fender I've ever heard, maybe sweetest bass ever heard! They are hand wound pickups made by Ben lindsay in the USA. From what I read he is considered one of the best winders? Completely silent, but sound amazing. Scratchplate doesn't seem to be original as I think they were black. But has some age to it. This has been a tough one to price as I think an all original 74 would be worth 3.5k or so. Ive put it up for what I feel is fair.
