  1. At the moment I feel that one is all I need.
  2. Here's my BB1100s. She's had a bit of work done. [attachment=89146:new_yam_1.JPG]
  3. Serious or not, he's only saying what the rest of us are thinking.
  4. [quote name='ShergoldSnickers' post='1295913' date='Jul 7 2011, 01:04 PM'](Whispering very, very quietly) I once did. Even worse, I've seen Cliff Richard, admittedly with the Shadows. My big sisters made me. [/quote] I'll see your Cliff Richard, and raise you Black Lace! BTW I love hearing slap bass - I feel that one of the main purposes of bass guitar is to make people want to dance, and slap does that for me. Unfortunately, I can't actually do it very well at all despite years of trying!
  5. Rory Gallagher - Laundromat or Bullfrog Blues (with bass solo!)
  6. Bump! Hope you enjoy the Q-Tron, Netballman.
  7. Q-Tron now sold. Will accept £25 for Bass Compactor. Also, is there any interest out there in a Boss CE-2B Chorus Pedal?
  8. Oh, but it can be! (active/passive selector switch)
  9. [quote name='Happy Jack' post='1257758' date='Jun 5 2011, 08:42 PM']Yeh, well, it's yer maple board, innit? Can't go wrong wiv a maple board, mate. [/quote] +1. And perfect with the sunburst Had a go on a P-Bass last week and now have serious GAS. Played like butter I think the saying goes.
  10. For sale – the following three effects pedals: - Electroharmonix Mini Q-tron - Electroharmonix Big Muff - Tech 21 Bass Compactor They each come with a mains adaptor and Velcro on the bottom. The EHX pedals also have adaptor cables for a Diago power station. A few scratches on the face of the EHX pedals but they function perfectly. Looking for £35 each incl. P&P Here is a photo: [attachment=81832:pedals_1.JPG] Will accept £25 for Bass Compactor
  11. I am looking to sell my Yamaha BB1100s, bought new in 1987. It was gigged regularly over the next few years and underwent the following modifications in the late eighties/early nineties: - brass/bone nut - OBL pickups - Schaller bridge - Hipshot D-tuner - Pickup selector replaced with pan switch After buying a Kubicki bass in 1992, I had the frets taken out of this one, realised I couldn't play fretless and put it in the loft. Fast forward to the present day. It has now had a new maple fretboard and a general spruce up. It has a few dings – mainly on the base of the body and the end of the headstock – but still looks and sounds great. I am looking for £350 (was £400), which will cover the cost of the latest mods! This includes a hard case covered in lots of stickers from the 80's. No trades – sorry. Here are some photos: [attachment=81766:new_yam_1.JPG] [attachment=81767:new_yam_2.JPG] [attachment=81768:new_yam_3.JPG] [attachment=81769:new_yam_4.JPG]
  12. Great pictures. Didn't realise that the early P's had the strings through body feature.
  13. The bassline still sounds like Jaco - Even on a keyboard!
  14. I would suggest speaking to the drummer and asking him how he thinks that it's going. Interesting how you get used to someone over time, though. A drummer who I have played in several bands with depped with my current band the other week. The rest of the band commented that he tended to slow down - I've never noticed!! S**t - does that make me a fraud too?
  15. For me, the old style pickguard only looks 'right' with the pickup cover on. Shame they didn't do that for this bass.
  16. My Jazz has a J-Retro, a Badass bridge and a D-tuner. That's about £400 worth. I also can't speak highly enough of the J-Retro - AND I didn't ask for the discount!
  17. [quote name='ahpook' post='1246284' date='May 26 2011, 09:30 PM']there are more costly hobbies.[/quote] +1 Being in a band is my golf. I wonder what my handicap would be...
  18. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='1239951' date='May 22 2011, 07:48 AM']Get one of everything that's the best bet IMO [/quote] The Holy trinity? I quite like that idea.
  19. I would keep my right thumb on the low B, and keep everything simple.
