  1. Past hour
  2. I have an idea regarding pickups which does not require breaking out the router. Hardware will be staying chrome (for reasons which will eventually become apparent). But yes, the strings will be going - amusing as they are, I'm a die hard D'addario XL nickel round user. First job will be to change the tuners - I suspect someone in the past has nicked the Gotoh GB7s it would have come with and replaced them with some generic units which aren't great to use - quite a lot of play in them and jarringly clanky play at that. I have the tuners which came off my Epi Les Paul bass which are decent so will reuse them.
  3. Another Barefaced user. I'm thinking of getting a 2nd hand Barefaced cab but not 100% sure i need it having my Mesa SW210/115 cabs. I like the idea of the 212 cab as its a better fit in my car plus the reviews for BF cabs are all excellent. Alex's vids are very interesting too highlighting many things i wasn't aware off with bass cabs. I might send Alex an email about it to see what he comes back with that would suit my needs. He comes across as a really good guy Dave
  4. Here's some PUPs. Please ask in the thread if you need further details of any 👍 Aggie AG 4P-60 £50 EMG Geezer PHZ Ivory plus solderless circuit new/unused £60 EMG Select and preamp board/pots albeit not a complete wired circuit. Project for someone? £20

  6. Nice bass gear. Is that the 6x10 cab and what do you think of it ? Dave
  7. You'll be perfect. Stop worrying about it. "Positive vibes Moriarty" Dave
  8. 2 soap bar pickups? Black hardware? That would be ace. As would changing the strings! 🤮
  9. Absolutely. A speaker the size of your thumb or fingernail is not going to reproduce any low frequencies. I listened to that BF video on my DT770s via a wired internet connection (you lose a lot with wireless) and it sounded fine. Same here. For practical purposes, super deep bass from a stage rig is usually not desirable. It sets the stage and everything on it vibrating, goes down all the mic's as a result and turns the FoH to mud. Attempting to pump out single figure frequencies also wastes a lot of amplifier power. Super deep bass is impressive and pleasing in the showroom, the studio and your hi-fi, but not on stage.
  10. Unusual looking WAL. Has it been modded with control panel. Mine had no scratchplate ? Love the colour tho. Dave
  11. This is the bit which makes me chill about these strings from Amazon versus ones off eBay... No third party involvement - so Amazon take full responsibility if something is wrong. I genuinely believe this decidedly bonkers price is a result of massive buying power. Call me naive if you like.
  12. Gig pressure is a wonderful tool to be used against lazy band members. 😁 Well done. Dave
  13. The Final Countdown - Europe
  14. We did an speaker shootout at one of the bass bashes, they all sounded very similar apart from the MarkBass which was so heavily tuned.
  15. The ones I got were generic chinese junk. The packaging said they were phosphor bronze, but they were actually bronze/brass.
  16. NOW £80 POSTED Mackie 802 VLZ3 mixer Cracking little desk, I've used it for home recording and gigs - sounds great for both. Tons of features, great mic preamps, full working order, complete with PSU (euro plug with adaptor). Selling as I'm just not using it any more. Manual here http://kunstencentrumbelgie.com/overbelgie/802VLZ3_OM.pdf I'm in Manchester over the next couple of weeks - happy to meet at a services or even drop off if you're near the right motorway. Trades - I'm interested in Jamerson's original P Bass or *possibly* a compressor pedal - feel free to offer anything else.

  17. The packaging on these looked spot on. I complained, eBay refunded me, but seems odd really to fake strings, they have actually seemed just like normal strings, if they are fake they are pretty good.
  18. Gorgeous! Id love one of these, was this Steff's?
  19. G&L Fallout Tribute. Properly set up, with upgraded electronics and Fender locking tuners. Condition is almost as new. I can see two tiny blemishes to the paint but very hard to spot.

  20. I'm no longer gigging, so another item up for sale. This bag offers a very high level of protection and with plenty of useful additional storage space. All zips work perfectly and the general condition is exceptionally good, with no rips or other damage. I don't have a box for postage, so this will have to be collection only.
