  1. Past hour
  2. Totally I played zombie recently at an OM and had to throw in a 6 quarter note bar as I’d overstayed on the previous chord. Still finished on time with a sustained open E to the pleasant surprise of the two acoustic guitards, one of whom shouted me to the crowd and the other fist bumped me. Personally I think the only bit that went right was that last note and that only by chance. Crowd went nuts which was a pleasant surprise theyre used to playing acoustic unsupported so they obviously have ridiculously low standards
  3. Yes totally. I think im Right in saying that his jazz bass that day is the same one as the New years Day video
  4. It's been exactly 1 year since my last NBD 🙂

  5. What a fantastic set up that must have been... especially if you were in demolition of buildings. I very much regret getting rid of my 1212L. Absolute beast of a cab.
  6. Some more pics
  7. He always does that, they are used to it. I thought it was a masterpiece of showmanship. The riff does vary a bit.
  8. Damn

  10. Once upon a time I was a little irresponsible.....Schroeder 4x10 AND 2x15 Where the heck did I think I was playing? Wembley 🤣 I replaced it with a "more sedate" Barefaced Big Twin T. 🤣
  11. Don't fancy yours. Bass, that is, not other half.

    Agree with you @paul_5 - also don’t forget washers mean you can drill 1-2mm up to give you some wiggle room.

  17. Man, that's very nice indeed.... I had (and stupidly sold) a paisley Telecaster, and have wanted a bass in the same scheme for ages.
  18. lovely condition £45 including UK shipping will ship internationally at cost
  19. If, like me you're a big Primus fan, that's got to be tempting. But unless you're pretty darn rich I can't recommend it in good concience.
  20. Today
  21. I'll take £12.50 a set and offers for more than one
  22. I've had great fun and satisfaction out of this instrument. It is much modified, as you'll see, and it took me a couple of years to get it to just where I wanted it. I've really enjoyed having it, but have moved on in my mind, so happy to pass it to someone else. Specs: 30" scale Semi hollow 38mm nut width Mahogany body and neck Maple top Bound fingerboard, not sure what wood (likely rosewood), 20 frets. Modifications: (loads!) Tuners - Wilkinson gold Y tuners Neck - I don't like shiny, so I took the neck back to bare wood, then danish oiled it. It feels fantastic, very tactile. I'm not good at fine finishing, so the points where I left off sanding are obvious (see pictures) Body - same as above, don't like shiny. Back and sides have just had the shine taken off, but I went to town on the top - took all the finish off, then danish oil. It's a matte finish that allows the wood pattern to present well. Again, see pics for a couple of bits where I went too hard... Tailpiece - I wanted to use a long scale set of TI flats, so fitted the tailpiece. This has worked very well, with a couple of unexpected benefits - the usual 3 point bridge 'problems' have been bypassed. Also there is a pleasing natural saturation to the tone. It's very much a blues bass. Pickups - as you can see, I've replaced the 2 mini humbuckers with 3 matching AliExpress specials. I really like the Thundertron vibes, and they sound excellent. Controls - wired the pickups to master vol/tone and a 5 way selector. I don't like positions 2 and 4, but each pickup on it's own sounds great - real plummy warmth from the neck, P vibes from the middle, and just a tighter P sound from the bridge. So there we are. I think it looks splendid, you might disagree. I believe the current examples have 42mm necks, so this one might appeal to those who prefer a jazz neck... Very happy to answer questions, or take any good natured abuse...
