  1. Past hour
  2. Happy to post ?
  3. Welcome back @Grangur we have met in real life many years ago
  4. So I’ve been looking at vintage fender basses as I’m hankering after one and this which isn’t vintage came up and was too good to pass up. Its a 2012 Fender American Jazz Bass in beautiful nick, lovely weight and sounds brilliant. I wasn’t looking for a Jazz but oh well 😂 The serial number amused me too, it ends in 6666. Had to include it in a photo with my AV60 Precision too!

  5. Ha, you’ve triggered a forgotten memory! As teenagers, we supported a rock covers band in Darlaston. My dad drove us all home to Telford. When the guitarist got home and went to take his £150 Epiphone Les Paul Special out of it’s generic Gator case, he couldn’t believe his luck… It had transformed into a rather ugly but very expensive Parker Fly. A few phone calls later and my poor Dad was in the car on the way back to Darlaston. Safe to say the guitarist was a mix of relieved and frustrated. he’d only had it a few weeks as an anniversary present if I remember rightly, and had spent about 2 hours in uproar thinking it had been stolen!
  6. Thanks @tauzero - I've had a punt....
  7. I quoted your assertions not your prejudices.
  8. Trades - X Touch Universal, maybe Alto TS215. Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.

  9. You only find out how good retailers are when something goes wrong tbh, any idiot can stick something in a box and take your money in exchange. Well maybe not the guy who packed your amp but the point still stands.
  10. I have those- they work very well
  11. In my opinion an irrational prejudice is an opinion.
  12. How about flute-like sounds on synths?
  13. Isn't a prejudice an opinion by definition?
  14. Bought some B strings from Pete. Excellent communication, well packed and very fast delivery. Deal in total confidence.
  15. I think they are. They demand a distinct right and left hand technique, especially with regard to muting, and a different mindset with regard to the scale patterns you use. No. There's an optimal number related to the size of a typical human hand. A typical five is too wide to allow thumb muting and left hand fingers access to all strings without a lot more wrist flexion.
  16. Human Fly - The Cramps
  17. Have just arrived - that was quick. Externally identical to the Lekato WS-90, just charging them up now. Will report further in a bit.
  18. These are lovely little amps with the typical, great Phil Jones Bass sound and superb build quality. It has had a very easy life, kept in its box when not in use and only used in the home (or on the occasional UK holiday). It has a 3 band eq, headphone socket for quiet practice, excellent Bluetooth for playing along with the iPad (or Aux in) and at 35 watts is more than enough for the home. It weighs just 2.4kgs. There is a tiny indentation on the top left hand corner of the combo but of course this does not affect the functionality of the unit in any way. I have the original box, so postage (at buyer’s cost) will not be a problem. Collection in person is welcomed.

  23. Surely that should have been a Roy Orbison tribute? 🤓 Btw I have never heard of Ms Kenworthy!
  24. I've bought from G4M before with no problems. This is not at all impressive.
  25. I've been away from here for a long time. I've not checked out any members here for a long time.
