  1. Past hour
  2. Longshots in a pub carpark in East Manchester this afternoon. Bass player with a Capri Orange P and a fridge. Respect!
  3. Thanks, and interestingly I bought not only a hand-held reamer today but also a step drill bit! I'm aiming to use the former but will have the latter on standby. I love the fact that whatever job you need to do, someone has invented a tool. However, there is one major problem - knowing what that tool is called! I'd never heard of a step drill until I searched reamer and they appeared low in the results 🤔 This is the body in question, I'm hoping next time I post a photo it looks a whole lot better
  4. @Basvarken: what's the order of the strings? If I remember an old article right, playing with a pick or fingers defies the order. Is this true? With pick the downstroke hits the lowest first, and with fingers it's the other way around, yes/no?
  5. Fabulous, & as usual in a different time zone 😭😆
  6. 😍
  7. We arrived early and went round the festival before anyone else! Bought some naga chilli sauce which was my level. Tried hotter ones, but the flavours weren’t as good.
  8. added a diy noise maker from holy island it can run of the two solar panel but one of mine is faulty, but it has a back up 9v super simple sounds weird which is what I want
  9. Selling this nice passive DI from Radial Eng. Details here Looking for £65 posted within mainland. Can be collected in Aylesbury. I might have the original box somewhere, will have to dig the storage.
  10. When enlarging headstock tuner holes I’ve used successfully either a hand-held reamer (as suggested by @Hellzero) or a step drill bit with a drill chuck and t-bar handle. Slow and steady by hand………just watch out for chips occurring in the surface coating (poly worse than nitro). If you can locate centrally a washer or coin of the desired final hole size, pre-score around it with a sharp scribe. This will help minimise chips and serve as a guide for the drill/reamer.
  11. Today
  12. I couldn’t play that. The band would be running round trying to find me trying all the chilli products
  13. I do agree Tom, but without the original packaging, I'd be concerned about sending this out into courier world. I also much prefer potential buyers to confirm they are happy with the item in person before they purchase. However, if a buyer would be prepared to arrange collection by their preferred courier I could source appropriate packaging.
  14. Ditch the tort-ure scratchplate? Seriously though if my credit cards weren't giving me daily manxiety i would snatch you arm off, it's a stunning bass.
  15. ….and of course if you installed a pair of Dimarzio model Ps in there the adjustable pole pieces would have it covered anyway 👍
  16. My solution for that - a wristband, pulled up to where the forearm meets the body. I play basses with zero forearm contouring, even binding without issue if I do this.
  17. Marvellous!
  18. I did buy that but returned it due to the lack of a forearm contour. It sounded great and the colour looked amazing. Was really sorry to part with it but I knew from previous experience, it would be uncomfortable for me to play.
  19. Here? Basschat? I am losing my grip. I thought I had been through the adverts!! Off to look now!
  20. Jack has some VERY interesting basses but most are too esoteric and/or expensive, so sadly this is still here. A Precision with rosewood board would grab my attention, as would cash 🤔
