  1. Past hour
  2. Imagine you're after a new Jazz bass and you have about £500 to spend. Do you opt for the £489 Squier CV Active 70s - active pickups, nice block inlays, lovely turquoise or mocha colour options; or do you shell out a little more on the £549 Fender Standard - simple classic Jazz spec and colours (blue/black/burst/white), but it has "Fender" on the headstock? Are you likely to feel and hear much of a difference between them (assuming both are set-up well and if you want to get real picky you can fit the same strings)? I guess the active electronics of the Squier will give you more options for sound output, but is it "better"? Or does the enhanced quality of the Fender actually show through? Personally, I'd go for the Squier CV 60s in daphne blue, but that's beside the point.
  3. What @AndyTravis said!
  4. just a small update with my flyrig. temple mods added for dual input, fx loop and DI
  5. Fabulous, & as usual in a different time zone 😭😆
  6. Feel kinda sorry for any bass player who had to let that go to CC.....
  7. Settling with my Anagram and found a NAM profile(Tech21 Red Ripper) that can do something similar so this one must go. Listing it at £400. Bought from the US including postage and customs. Paid more than my selling price. Only thing missing is the pink paper packaging wrap, won’t affect the tone though 😂 Any questions, feel free to message me. Chad
  8. For many years I was a long term user of Guitar Tapp Pro on Android. It's been all I needed when playing in 4 different bands, easy to share and simple to create and edit set lists. It's now been upgraded and replaced by Chords.wiki and is faster, more flexible and easy to use. As it's an App you can use it across your, phone, tablet or laptop and it automatically sync's up from the cloud. Sharing set lists between band members is breeze. Only downside is the annual subscription.
  9. I'm sure they still tried to offer the previous owner £50 for it though.
  10. It wasn't a background / restaurant gig. It was a rock venue.
  11. Replacement Rock/Metal guitarist wanted for Dio’s Purple tribute band. Set ready, gigs pending Warrington based 🤘
  12. Nice, but not really all that much use to me.
  13. Not to mention their X Air series mixers have become the go-to solution for many gigging bands on the pub and corporate circuit.
  14. Shipping should be possible as I'm getting a new cab in a couple of weeks so I can recycle the packaging from that.
  15. . . . . and then Monica arrives with her noisy weekends!
  16. That was me - I think you had the Clover and I the Stingray. In any case, I think I need a gold sparkly bass again so have DM'd OP
  17. If you put the screws in the holes, unless you leave them proud, the holes will be made bigger, so when you come to replace covers, the screws will have nothing to screw into. 🤷‍♂️ Put them in a bag with the covers.
  18. Waifs And Strays - Marc Almond
  19. Today
  20. I'm near Wakefield now so posting would have to be the way as halfway is around Bristol! I don't have available funds at the moment but am hoping they're not too far on the horizon, so just looking at options for the fiver I've been promising myself for a while, and this is very high up on my list.
  21. The screw pixies ran off with mine sometime in the mid 80's.
  22. This is such a gorgeous bass. I have the HCT 500/1 version - the mid-range Contemporary Series - and even that is a wonderfully playable, resonant and authentic bass. But it won't hold a candle to this one. GLWTS, Ash! (not that you should need it!)
  23. That is just crazy talk 🤣 tape them to the covers and put them in the case or envelope in parts drawer.
  24. Vintage 1980's Westone Thunder 1A Active Electric Bass from Matsumoku Factory, Japan - Fretless. Manufactured between 1981 and 1989. Serial number 4071308 Check out the Westone website as it holds useful information. Different eras of this iconic bass but otherwise very much the same instrument (other than being fretless + active). This f/less bass has been converted from an originally fretted bass. There are the usual signs of pitting/wear to the original metallic hardware (SEE PHOTOS). Pots run smooth with no crackle currently when played. Knobs pitted and aged. There are signs of surface scratching and small dings etc. as photographed. instrument has a basic, somewhat tatty, generic hardcase. Price includes UK 24/48h courier delivery
