  1. Past hour
  2. What?! It's not even multiscale! 🤣
  3. I used to like the way MK wasn't afraid to change his tone from track to track on the studio albums back in the '80's. Like on that song Micro Kid on Standing In The Light it sounds like he's cranked the mid and treble controls on his JayDee. This Croydon gig sounds not dissimilar to that tone:
  4. This piano hasn't seen the light of day since around 6 months, when I started playing again (and definitely) one with 88 black and white keys. Maybe I'll even sell that Le Fay...
  5. Very nice, but no thanks, they are the same as I fitted on my P Bass. £60 is a good price, don't sell them any cheaper... Thanks anyway, Gaz.
  6. 12-14m but that was me just asking for basic, orientational quote - line in the sand if you will. I imagine this gets adjusted from there based on magnitude of bespoke adjustments within the order (never been through full custom order process myself m, I wish I was :))
  7. Back up for sale boys and girls!
  8. Is that the piano you’re playing now
  9. 5-string set reversible, £60?
  10. That said, owning this means that I'm easy to convince about Aristides instruments...
  11. A .50 G should fit fine. I've done the same this week actually, going back to a .70 D and a .50 G (Fender flats). I'm working on using open strings to help with transitions and the thinner strings I had on weren't cutting it. Both strings fit fine on my Fender P.
  12. Careful curation? hah - not in our band, the sax gets everywhere!
  13. Those were the days! Such an exciting time for bass players.
  14. I tried to find the Spider-Man paint job, but failed, so perhaps I either imagined it or just mis-remembered, but yeah, that TRON paint job was pretty nice I thought. Mark
  15. I love the Tron model @LowB_FTW! 😍
  16. The Schallers I fitted were massive plates, you must have a different model number, how much flooding gear are you asking for them? and do you have any pics. I might be interested.....
  17. Sorry, I didn't pick up on you being sent a 2nd replacement for free. Fair enough!
  18. Thanks for the reminder; I haven't listened to this album in over 40 years. It's even better than I remember!
  19. Really underrated basses these. GLWTS.
  20. Today
  21. What sort of build time?
  22. I've been searching for an answer on an FRFR unit. All I'm seeing is people jacking in HX Stomp type boards...my question is whether an FRFR unit will work with a rudimentary distortion pedal (in my case a Fender Pugilist).
  23. All credit to you guys for taking on a Burns Supper night. Not an easy task unless you're a typical Scottish Ceilidh band. Well done. Dave
  24. 2006 Squire Vintage Modified Precision Bass in Olympic White for sale - with some modifications to dress it up like a 70s P bass. I will include the Thomann gig bag with the sale. I have always wanted a 70s P, but as a mainly 5 string player I knew I wouldn't use it that much so I didn't want to commit too much cash to one. So, I found a Squire VM P bass in Olympic white which had a few dings online and then proceeded to create my own. Personally I think it looks great and it saddens me to sell it but I could do with a little cash injection right now. So, the main change is the headstock. The squire details were removed and sanded flat, some discolouration added to age the wood, a 70s decal added and then a vintage amber Nitro lacquer from NorthWest Guitars. I have flatted it back and flatted off the sheen from the back of the neck so it's nice and smooth. Aged string retainer and neck F plate was added (I always intended to add aged tuners and bridge but never got round to it.) Body - it had a few dinks here and there which have been added to (nothing major to be honest) and the bass still has the Seymore Duncan designed pickups, original bridge and tuners. The olympic white has aged and yellowed really nicely and the rosewood board is nice and dark. I know this won't be to everyone's taste but if you fancy a 70s P and don't fancy the price of one, this could be for you! I have included a picture of the original squire serial number for information. Not sure what else to add about the bass. It plays great and sounds just like a P should. The previous owner changed the wiring to cloth wiring and added an orange drop cap to the tone control. Any trial is welcome and I have packaging to post. Will look at quotes and happy to look at various options.
