  1. Past hour
  2. Oh and another thing, you won't find those Gotoh GB7s anywhere but the second hand market, especially those ones with the plastic, fluted bit below the button.
  3. @BassAdder60 please see SumOne's post above re. your comparison query? Plus my reasons for wanting the additional features on the GX10. Hope that helps!
  4. There's loads on ebay. Yes, shipped from China. I bought a roasted flamed maple neck there for about a 100 quid. It was stunning. I didn't end up using it though but I know the basschatter who I sold it to liked it a lot. I couldn't say if the fingerboard was real rosewood but it looked good. Nice and dark.
  5. Excellent session last night with my stoner metal band. I made a switch from my Spector to my 80's Yamaha BB1100S and it was the right choice. Really fun and productive session and we're definitely getting closer to being gig ready. Me and the drummer are starting to understand each others playing better. He at least knows a look of panic from me means "slow down ya bastard!"
  6. Will take £550. If not I'll keep it.
  7. Take another one out, and measure it, then get a replacement? It's just a case of getting the correct screw. Perhaps a local, friendly fastener supplier could help? Contact Gotoh?
  8. A really nice example finished in the beautiful Fender Dakota Red. It has had a really nice professional set up - level frets, low playing action & is in excellent condition. The back of the neck has a lovely flame to the Maple. Other upgrades include a KiOgen wireless loom, Bourns potentiometers, Switchcraft input Jack socket, uprated pickups and a spiffing Celluloid top layer faux Tortoiseshell pickguard. This Bass would be ideal as a travelling instrument, for a beginner, or anyone with smaller hands. Because it is so small - about the same size as a Fender Stratocaster, it is ideal as a studio Bass or just for ‘noodling’ - Guitarists love these as they feel familiar in their hands. Included in the sale is a Gibson heavily padded Levy’s Gig Bag which although is a tad threadbare in places, still provides excellent protection.

  9. I didn’t have the classic F91W to hand… luckily I had enough room left on the board for its bigger brother, W217H! Happy to give it a new lease of life after a broken strap mounting hole saw it unused for years.
  10. PM sent
  11. Christmas is out of the way, you've been paid - what are you waiting for?
  12. Now £349 as I sold the second Tung Sol tube separately. Sale includes the Tung Sol fitted in the pedal and the original Sovtek tube.
  13. Analog modelling device to replicate the sound of a 12in guitar speaker. Connect either to an instrument-level output (eg from a preamp) or a spare speaker output (IMPORTANT - it is essential to also connect a speaker or dummy load to a valve amp, and strongly recommended with a solid state amp). Runs from PP3 battery (not included) or phantom power. £40 delivered in mainland UK.
  14. cheers Mark , it’s lovely just needs playing
  15. … wanted to try one for a while (to compare against my other B15 type offerings 👍🏻):
  16. While playing my vester fretless bass , one of the tuning pegs fell out . I pushed it back in , but notice that it has a black screw that has gone missing. Any idea where to get the right sized replacement ?? Or am I screwed , and have to purchase a replacement gotoh tuning peg? 😬
  17. IMO there's good mileage in playing through a lot of pieces in the early stages and moving on quite quickly. My daughter's sax teacher has been doing this with her, and she has been progressing quickly and, importantly, maintained motivation. If you go back to those pieces in a month after working on something else you might find them a lot easier and fresher.
  18. On numerous occasions lately I have been unable to save the information I had written. It just would save. Furthermore when log out and back I again the txt does not appear for acceptance or deletion. Can you explain why?

  20. My relationship to the Trace pre-shape (granted on the GP11/12s) has been to turn it on, play a few notes, say "cool", then turn it off for the gig. The compressor is fine if you don't have anything better on your pedalboard, albeit I normally use compressors for peak limiting rather than anything more drastic.
  21. Gather here, ye converted, and weep! Even though we've never met I kind of assumed that you might enjoy a little oikishness, so yes, of course. It's an inevitability. It's obviously not 'ard enough.
  22. Today
  23. If only...glwts.
  24. I have the same combo and they are great. Loud and a great tone the horn makes a lot of difference to the sound
  25. Relisting this as, try as I might, I am not A Jazz Bass Guy. Original thread below, the only thing that’s changed since May is the bass is now wearing a nicely worn in set of La Bella IMA Super Polished strings. I’m in the market for a JMJ Mustang so would be interested in a trade involving one of those (plus cash adjustment on my end). Collection from Haywards Heath preferred, or I’d be happy to meet within 30 miles or so.

  26. I'm down to just 2 basses (shocking, I know) One is a bitsa P Bass with a Harley Benton neck on it. Whilst it's fine, it's not exactly a looker. Has anyone bought a reasonably priced roasted maple neck, ideally with a rosewood or equivalent board. I appreciate I could go to AliExpress but that seems very much like a lottery in terms of fit and finish.
