  1. I have literally joined this forum because of this thread, shared on the Facebook group. Sorry I haven't been here before! You bunch of legends! I have also fallen to this scammer for the classic Sans Amp caper. I have created a file with Leicestershire police (ref: 291220211) and with Action Fraud: NFRC201204132835 Can I please urge anyone who has been scammed by him to create a report with Action Fraud and quote this number. So far I've managed to link mine to 4 other cases. Perhaps we need a centralised place for all our reference numbers that we can all refer to?

  2. So - scary day. Attaching the new fretboard. First job was to make sure that the mating surfaces were absolutely flat. When you are making a neck from scratch, generally you leave the neck as a rectangular section until after the fretboard has been fitted - that way you can clamp firmly along each of the sides of the fretboard to avoid any gaps. But with a finished neck, you can't do that. You can only clamp along the spine of the profiled neck and therefore you are relying on the flatness of the fretboard itself - and the neck mating surface - to fully squeeze out the glue and close the gap at either side of the fretboard. So both the bottom of the fretboard and the neck itself has to be completely flat. I used a scraper to make sure all of the glue residue from the old fretboard was gone and then ran a straight edge all the way along the neck - with its graphite/carbon core - to ensure absolute flatness all the way up. And it wasn't quite. The graphite/carbon (I say that because I don't actually know what the fibres are) was just a teeny bit raised one side. Normally this wouldn't be a problem because the clamping would just force the side gap closed. But with the replacement that wasn't going to be good enough. So some very careful scraping and sanding (I made a small sanding block for the job) ensured that it was made flat. And for this job - with the very fine graphite/carbon/whatever dust - it was the full A1/P2 spec respirator...this is no time at all to end up at A&E with a severe respiratory problem! The neck was masked off to keep the glue off the original finish, the truss-rod adjuster was protected from glue squeeze-out and a clearance channel in the fretboard added to ensure no binding: Then the Titebond, spool clamps, cauls and G-clamps: Note that all of the clamps are running down the centre. This is different to how I will do @Jus Lukin 's where I will have the luxury of being able to clamp along each edge. So in this case, it is the fretboard stiffness that is applying the clamping pressure across the width, and itself protected by the caul on top. The result was better than I expected and as good as I could have hoped: This will now sit at least 24 hours for the glue to fully harden before I do anything with it

  4. Having flown the flag for vinyl even well into the CD age, I appear to have inadvertently become fashionable by default. I would wager a fair few of those vinyl sales during lockdown can be traced directly to my house. I like all the formats and find streaming good during exercise and CDs are okay in the car but I do love the ritual of putting on a record.

  5. I've had a look at the side dots for this and I want to keep the colour simple. White obviously doesn't go on maple, black dots just don't look right and I don't think alabone would look right either. I decided to make some dowels from an offcut of the neck wood. I used a piece of metal sheet with a 2.5mm hole drilled in it then cut some wooden rods to roughly the right size. The wooden sticks are then hammered through the hole in the metal sheet to make them round. These are then fitted into the holes drilled in the neck and sanded flush.

  8. Most of my best paid work in the last 10 years has taken place in the EU, probably by pure luck more than anything else, and I think it would be a massive shame if UK acts were priced / carnet-ed / visa’d out of doing a run of European gigs. Apart from function gigs in the UK, it was always the European ones where me and the guys would get paid decent money and get really well looked after. Audiences round Europe have often been great as well, really up for it. We’ve got to at least get visa-free travel for UK artists to make it worthwhile. Unless you actually are an established top tier act, but even so...

  10. Cog Custom Dirt Box “CADe00” Hugely versatile overdrive/distortion with low passed clean blend and analogue octave up circuit. I’m going to miss this one! Here’s what Cog has to say: “Knightfall (black) and Darklighter (cream) on an A/B footswitch, with a footswitchable octave up (yellow) in series before them, with clean blend (blue) in parallel with the octave and dirt. Sounds absolutely brutal, and is super versatile. Make your bass guitar a weapon. Make your guitarist whimper and politely ask you to turn the gain down because you're making them look bad. Ignore them. Play louder.” Excellent condition with original box. Neatly applied, good quality Velcro on the base. £125 posted in the UK. Offers welcome.

  11. A lovely classic Westone 1984 vintage Thunder 1A bass. Crafted in the Matsumoku factory Japan. 34” Scale length. Bass is in great condition with the 18v hand wired active circuitry in perfect working order. Plays and sounds really well. In good condition as the pictures show with a small amount if patina adding to the appeal. Open to trades - or sale. Shipping via UPS service or local pickup.

  12. I have already signed this in the hope that it might at least get well debated in parliament... Before then being completely ignored by this hapless government, as is their usual way of responding to any other point of view outside of their own, very narrow one. The creative arts in the UK are being destroyed through things like this and Covid whilst BoJo murders a few Vera Lynn tunes on his fiddle (emphasis on the word fiddle of course)..

  14. Just have to post this as these two basses are rare. So for all you Fender lovers, here is some history unknown to most of you, at least it was to me. I actually managed to get both the US (2002 -figured maple over alder) and Mexican version (2006 - Sienna sunburst) of this bass. Picked up the US-one for about £ 625 and the Mexican one for about £380. And I managed to find Fenders own words from a Siamese(?) site. A right out steal for the US one (I hope the previous owner does not read this...), the Mexican one perhaps not so much. Both in very good condition, no scratches or dents. I just had to get the Mexican one once I had the US-version. Just to compare... What is there to say, both are tone monsters. The US version a bit heavier, has a far better neck with better fretwork, but other than that they are pretty equal. Soundwise they are pretty close to each other, even though they have different pickup-configurations. The US version came with a really nice G&C Deluxe hardcase. Both necks were lacquered, to a degree that you get stuck the minute your hands start to sweat. So I sanded down both necks and made a nice smooth satin finish. Maybe I should not have done that in terms of value, but now they are so much better to play! Too bad I messed up the picture with the backside of the headstock, but the tuners are Gotoh crome on the Mexican one and the US version got Hipshot Fender Lite weight tuners. Fender Enters the "Zone" American Deluxe Zone Bass Deluxe Zone Bass July 23, 2001 Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) will release two edgy new basses this summer with the introduction of the American Deluxe Zone Bass and the Deluxe Zone Bass at the 2001 Nashville NAMM show. Both of the new Zones Basses offer cutting edge features including newly designed pickups and electronics, and in the case of the American Deluxe version, a choice of exotic woods. "This is a very ambitious step for Fender basses," says Richard McDonald, vice president of electric guitars for Fender. "We’ve put a great deal of effort over the past few years in finding out exactly what players want in a contemporary bass. What we’ve come up with is this new line of Zone basses, and we are very proud of the results." The American Deluxe Zone Bass is one of Fender's first ventures into the realm of exotic wood basses, offering a choice of either a highly figured maple top over alder, or a walnut top over mahogany. Engineers in Fenders Research and Development have spent the last two years designing an entirely new electronic platform to match and maximize the tonal characteristics of each of the options, including new hum canceling pickups designed to increase the low frequency response and extend the upper frequency range. Both neck and bridge pickups are designed with ferrous steel pole pieces contained within the core of each bobbin. They are driven with low-profile, wide area ceramic magnets located at the base of each pickup, with the ceramic magnets offering optimal strength and excellent string transfer characteristics that result in incredible clarity and articulation. The unique sonic nature of the exotic woods and their body mass require electronics that can bring the most out of these instruments. To accommodate this, the new American Deluxe Bass circuit is tweaked at the input stage - pre-shape, boost and EQ settings - to match and compliment the instruments characteristics. The Bass frequencies are centered at 40Hz± 12db with a 4db per octave slope, while the Treble is centered at 8 kHz± 10db with a 2db per octave slope, with the Treble cut working as a more passive control for warm, organic tones. The Mid control is centered at 500Hz± 10db and -15db, with a wide-band slope to bring out the growl and new distinctive voices of the electronics. The circuit is powered by a new 18 Volt supply. The bridge on the American Deluxe Zone Bass is deluxe chrome plated steel. The maple neck is C-shaped has a 34" scale, 9.5" radius with a rosewood fingerboard and 22 frets. This bass is made at Fenders state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Corona, California. US MSRP is $1,949.99. The Deluxe Zone Bass is styled after the American Deluxe version, offering straight ahead, professional features and the signature value that is associated with products made at Fender’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. The Deluxe Zone Bass features two new pickups designed specifically for this instrument, with the popular American P-Bass“ serves as a starting point for the neck position pickup. Fender has added more of a top end response to the flush mounted Alnico magnets, brining more top end definition to the full bodied nature of this pickup. The bridge position pickup is a fully customized version of Fender’s Active Deluxe Jazz Bass pickup, with quarter-inch Alnico magnets and end-to-end hum canceling vintage style construction. The new active EQ circuit is controlled by Volume, Blend/Pan, Treble, Mid and Bass Controls. The solid alder body features a contoured top. The maple neck is C-shaped with a 34" scale and 9.5" radius, rosewood fingerboard and 22 frets. As with the American Deluxe version, the bridge is deluxe chrome plated steel. Available colors are Sage, Pewter, Black and Sienna Burst. Made at Fender’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. US MSRP is $849.99.

  15. So yeah, playing around with this today... It’s lacking a few inches off my other basses (feels really tiny!), but not missing any bottom end! I’m not big fan of signature instruments, or ‘relic’d’ basses really, but this one has excellent specs that I believe outweigh its price tag. Plus, Fender and Justin Meldal-Johnsen haven’t done any silly faffing with the concept. JMJ’s just got a really nice Mustang that they’ve cloned... Bit of a nervous wait for delivery (have always picked out an instrument in person before, but that’s really not an option right now...), but no major issues identified from its transit! Will need to have a look into some shielding paint/foil to counter 60-cycle hum at some point, but that seems to be fairly typical of these instruments.

  18. Just picked up this trans white Valenti which was for sale local to me. I owned the Basschat candy apple red #42 for around a year more than a decade ago now, so I know just how good Nino’s basses are. The seller was a guitarist and couldn’t tell me what preamp it has. A check on the Valenti archive doesn’t list the circuit either. Wondering if anyone can shed light on what it is before I have a look inside? Front to back it has volume/mids/passive tone (pull up for passive)/concentric bass and treble. Pickups are Aguilars according to the archive. Both pickup covers have hairline cracks running across the middle so guessing someone maybe over tightened them in the past. Otherwise the bass has no issues at all. Truss rod has the MM wheel and works fine. Very light on the shoulder too. Wondering too if any basschatters owned this bass previously? Anyway here are the pics

  20. And the holes drilled for the tuners. I'm using a set of Schaller tuners I was given on this build - (sorry, can't remember who it was on here but thanks again!). The holes are in a slightly different position to the Gotoh ones I've generally used with this shape of headstock as the string posts are different diameters.

  21. Some people have been known to fuss over having to have audiophile type quality. Above an mp3 of 320bps(some people say 192), very few people can tell the difference in the quality anyway. A lot of people have vivid imaginations. Just enjoy the music.

  23. The main thing that would prevent me from returning to vinyl is the cost. With albums anywhere from a shade under £20 each to £30 +, it's enough to make me stick with the CD format for now. As mentioned above, apparently a growing number of people are buying the vinyl issues from bands they like as a sort of collectors item, and probably won't ever be playing them. Must admit that whilst I've always had okay hi-fi set ups, I've never gone down the audiophile route and spent eye watering amounts on gold plated mains leads and speaker cables spun by unicorns etc. For me the music has always been the important bit, and how you get to hear it less so. From my experience in record retail in the 70's, most people who bought expensive Japanese pressings and quadrophonic recordings (remember those?) tended to like music which suited that level of investment in the first place - ambient trippy stuff or the more obscure classical / avant garde material. We dreaded selling to these folk as they invariably came back to query the quality or even recording of their (expensive) purchases. All I needed then (and come to think of it now really..) for playing my music collection is something that sounds good to my ears and will last a long time. I've used NAD stuff for ages now, and only needed two CD players in nearly 30 years so quite happy with it. Also got my NAD3020 amp my dear old Mum bought me in the 80's too, and it still sounds great.

  27. I'm sticking with CD's. I bought 7 overall for Christmas, of which 5 were for Mrs B and two for both of us. Three of the 7 were classical and the other 2 were past rock-pop classics. Music-Magpie was good for 4 of the discs. No point in having a good hi-fi if you don't feed it with quality. If we then want to rip to mp3 for the car then it's all possible; the car also still has a CD/mp3 player & a wacky SD card slot. Old laptop & this new desktop both with DVD/re-writers. Vinyl was the quality of it's time, that time has now past. Sure, mp3's, Spotify and assorted download sources are OK for general listening, as has been said, but when I want to bathe in the best classical or jazz then only CD's do the job. Vinyl buys are reserved for feeding to my grandson on his birthday & Christmas.

  31. I just received my new Metro Express 5 string jazz bass. I have the same horrible noise problems as everyone noticed. Being an electronics geek I had to look in to the problem and stared poking around inside the electronics compartment. I noticed that if I touched the blue or green wire going from the treble control to the input of the preamp the noise would increase. It looked like the problem was at the input of the preamp. I went to my electronics parts bin and found a .01uf bypass capacitor. The type used in most circuits to suppress (bypass) RF signals to ground. I placed it between the blue wire (lug) and ground (lug) on the bass control. Amazingly this fixed the problem and now I have a very quite Metro Express. One thing that is notable. Sadowsky already has a bypass capacitor between the blue wire and ground. So adding my capacitor placed it in parallel to the stock one. The fact that adding my capacitor fixed the problem tells me that either the stock capacitor was defective or it was not large enough to suppress the noise. Also, adding only .01uf on the treble control will not roll off audio frequencies.

  32. There is a petition that aims to get this debated in Parliament. I don't expect that the over-privileged toffs in power give two hoots about this issue, but at least this might put some pressure on. Seek Europe-wide Visa-free work permit for Touring professionals and Artists We would like the UK Govt to negotiate a free cultural work permit that gives us visa free travel throughout the 27 EU states for music touring professionals, bands, musicians, artists, TV and sports celebrities that tour the EU to perform shows and events & Carnet exception for touring equipment. More details The UK has a huge music / event touring industry which has suffered immensely due to Covid. After the end of the transition period, we face further hardship when trying to tour the EU on a professional basis, with potentially each country asking for its own visa, that would be valid only for one trip, As a freelancer I and many like me travel through the EU countless times a year on different tours and events, this will become impossible due to cost and time if we do not have visa free travel. To sign up, you can go here: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/563294

I've still no idea what I would be expected to pay shipping goods out of the UK into the EU. Or the other way around. My wife who runs a small Etsy business has now taken the UK off her shipping list altogether. I will never understand how anybody ever thought this was a good idea. How are business supposed to deal with all this cr@p with less than a weeks notice. Another appalling mess from Boris and his chums.

  37. Absolutely stunning example of a Fender Jazz. PRICE DROP- £2100 Here I am (very sadly) selling this fine example of 1975 Fender USA Jazz bass. Ash body, matching neck and maple fretboard with binding and block inlays. 3 bolt neck. It has the original scratchplate which has never been changed, only removed for set ups etc. I like the ashtray cover, but its easily removed. I also have the original ashtray bridge cover that I will include. Black thumb rest has also never removed by my myself as I like to keep everything the same as the way I purchased it. Bridge has been upgraded with an early edition Leo Quan Badass bridge, fitted around 75. This has aged very well alongside the wood and other parts so it resonates in harmony with the wood adding plenty more punch and dynamic range to your tone. Everything apart from the upgraded (IMO more responsive and dynamic) Badass bridge on the bass is original. Tuned E to G its whole 46 career. Selling due to bad timing-I have too many Jazz basses and I feel this is too precious to play frequently so I rarely play it and I've never personally gigged with it myself. The sound it produces is huge and has plenty of depth. If you're looking for that Marcus tone, vibe and look, it's got it in spades. I've played many Fenders and quite a few 70's era Jazz and P-Basses and this really feels like a true classic Jazz bass that one of their Master Builders would be proud of if they came close to replicating the sound, feel and character of this bass. Purchased from GuitarGuitar Glasgow last October, It's playability makes you you just flow freely. If you've owned many basses you'll understand what I mean. It's dripping with MOJO. Very well looked after, so minimal wear for a 45 year old bass. Set up regularly and stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. Also a smoke free household. The previous player and owner of this bass had owned this bass it's entire life and you can tell it's been well looked after. They would regularly service and set it up due to working with instruments professionally for years and having full access to a highly reputable workshop. The neck is straight and the truss rod has been well maintained. To play, it feels great and fretboard looks great with the MOP block inlays which have a lovely glow under sun and stage light. Zero fret wear and the body has aged so well that the natural unplugged tone is loud, projects well and has its own character. It's a very versatile bass capable of producing many different tones. Whilst playing natural and pinched harmonics, they sound bigger with more depth and through the beautifully aged maple body. It has a very full and alive tone which also sounds great acoustic. Really brings out the feel in you as it's very fun to play. Zero crackling or undesirable noise when adjusting your tones du to the tone pots being maintained well. It's developed a very unique and naturally punchy tone due to the beautifully aged matching Ash body, maple neck, and maple fretboard. I have owned modern 70's reissues which have very little terms of charm or character. Mainly as its all new wood, which takes time time to mature and develop. The fact that the instruments parts have been together for decades adds tonnes of resonance to the sound and tone of the bass. The secret to this special bass is rooted deep within its beautiful natural maple wood grain. It will only continue to grow and develop over time. Invest in your tone! Comes with a beautiful original Fender hard case with solid and beautiful orange fur lining to really give that feeling your about to play a really special instrument. I string this with Dunlop Nickel Superbright's. (.45 to .105 gauge) These treat the frets well and as it was purchased from a very reputable guitar shop employee and store everything was set up and checked to a very high standard. More pictures will be along soon with extra light and nicer surroundings on a Hercules stand. It's harder to get to my usual nice pictures with a limited neutral backround space and a lack of natural light, Make's it difficult to show you how nice it is in the flesh. The bass itself weighs 11.2lb. So plenty of tone from it! Also, if you have specific parts you'd like an image of, please PM me and ill get them along to you. Due to the whole "situation" I'm looking for a straight sale. Not into negotiating on price as I don't want to lose money so posted at price paid for and classic Fenders accumulate value really well. However, I may be swayed into a partial trade plus cash. I like Dingwall (intrigued by the fanned fret thing and their tone) Strandberg. Overwater, Sandberg, Limelight etc I can arrange for delivery of this bass all over the EU at the buyers expense. I have plenty of experience at selling instruments so my boxing and packaging skills are quite efficient and secure. I can also deliver within a reasonable distance in order to try but only if the person was serious and there was a contribution towards distance travelled to and from the location. Happy to arrange for a safely socially distanced, sanitised and masked time with the jazz before you buy when it's ok to do so. Any questions you may have, don't hesitate to PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks, Ruairidh. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1v1hf0fjwqu-uV-MTV7QsCqod-M780CLa/view?usp=drive_web

  38. Selling my L2000 Tribute. Always wanted one of these since I saw Martyn le Noble playing the more expensive version. Plenty of demos of this bass on YouTube. Loads of varied sounds on tap but I've realised over the last year I'm obviously a bit of a simpleton, and prefer basses I can just wack the dials on full and play. Despite all the variations the pickups give you, I seem to be endlessly fiddling and adjusting my sound rather than just enjoying it and settling on one that works in my band. Never mind. .......my problem. Its a shame cause I love the neck on this bass. It's quite chunky, but with a great satin finish. Hardware is great for the price esp the bridge. Only change I will be making before selling is refitting the strap buttons it came with. I bought this as B stock so one picture shows the ding the bass had when it turned up at PMT prior to shipping to me. It's not remotely sharp or dangerous and actually quite smooth to the touch. A bit of the lacquer has chipped off but it's in the position of you forearm and mostly against your belly when playing and not a problem or noticeable in any way. Weight exactly 4 kg on our scales. UK shipping fine at buyers expense and risk. I have a good quality bass box it can be packed in. No problems. Collection in line with social distance rules fine too. Not really up for trades at the moment.

Not in 20 years, it's happening right now @PaulWarning as Pro-Ject, one of the leading manufacturers of turntables who believed in the vinyl comeback, has started a new range of CD-Transports... for the same sale reasons as the previous medium. Worth reading the introduction comment : https://www.project-audio.com/en/product/cd-box-rs2-t/ This market based essentially on nostalgia for the oldest and discovery for the youngest is not a niche one at all...

  42. In another bass forum where there is a lot of "talk", they have a classified section for domestic and a separate one for foreign-based sales/trades. Is that an idea for BC? Perhaps another suggestion would be to keep things as they are but to require that folks specify the location (economic region) of the item for sale/trade. In most cases it is already in the members' avatar anyway. Just a suggestion. Personally, I find the BC classifieds a great place to visit. The "B" word won't change my habits....but I might be forced to be a bit more selective. Then again, maybe not😉!

The one good thing about working from home over the best part part of a year is that I've been able to listen to my records all day, I don't think I've listened to a CD in the best part of 10 years - maybe even more. From time to time I'll buy a CD and rip it to digital, but when I'm on the go it's streamed/stored digital for me.
