    [quote name='harleyheath' timestamp='1358868966' post='1946302'] fricking pooters, lol, sorry peps! [/quote] Me and my mum are the only people I know who call them pooters. My brother thinks we're talking about 'putas'...

    Smooth deal on an envelope filter. Have funk (groan), many thanks!

    It's 'the one that I want' out of the basses on here - A few large and somewhat unknown expenses forecast for the next month just mean it's an irresponsible time to start waving such a chunk of cash around! Part - ex for an RBX 375..? [quote name='Ashborygirl' timestamp='1358770448' post='1944587'] The core tone is superb & the electrics put paid to the notion that flexibility demands an active EQ. [/quote] Passive a big plus IMO - can't see the point in forcing your signal through a second-rate EQ if the bass sounds decent in the first place.

    [quote name='Dave Vader' timestamp='1358686527' post='1943245'] You are definitely weird, diet coke? That's just wrong.... [/quote] +1 Diet coke sounds different to open than normal coke. Hollower click and more fizz.

    The nut width is 42mm, the heel width (if that means the widest it gets before it starts to curve back in) is 60mm (measured carefully but with a school ruler ).

    SOLD - thanks. [color=#A9A9A9]Hello, Bought this from another forumite recently hoping it would be a drop-in replacement for the neck on my cheap P-copy - however it looks like I'd have to do a bit of basic woodwork to make a good job and I don't really have the bits or time. Fair bit of playing wear to the laquer on the edges of the neck as shown in pics. Apart from that it looks and feels like a nice solid plank, no major bangs - was looking forward to having a go! Truss rod turns smoothly. Any questions let me know, though I've not actually had it on a bass. No logo on headstock, so ready for yours! With the authentic wear, could be great for a 'relic' project, or just to stick on a body and see what happens. Tuners included.[/color]

    I have pretty much been a GAS man my whole life, on and off... first keyboards, then computer/VST software, and now guitar and bass gear... It's pretty natural, all part of our hunter/gatherer mindset! I think the thing I've really been after, though, is not the gear itself but just the knowledge of how to get various different sounds. I hope I'm at a point where most of those mysteries are cleared up, and I will be happier with a small amount of gear (the fact that so much is possible on computers now helps - not that I have a lot of software any more, but it's only a click away if I do want it!) Everyone needs a quest and once you are over that line where you basically know what your sound(s) is/are and have the gear to make them, it's time for another quest. Get obsessed with technique, songwriting, learning to sing while playing.... I think it obsessions are only mega unhealthy when you get focused on one thing so much that you step over the line of diminishing returns and you are disappearing up your own backside pursuing something that you basically already have. Ultimately, always just ask yourself: Does this help me with the ladies? (Which is the point of hunting/gathering in the first place)

    [quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1358621119' post='1942412'] it'd like to take the credit for a teaser-marketing scheme [/quote] Well it obviously works! Especially with a sexy instrument like this one...

    Seeing it revealed a bit at a time - so exciting!
  13. topo morto
    Aha. don't know why I thought this was 35", probably because I am stupid. These seem to get a lot of love for the B... how is this one?

    [quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1358354945' post='1937676'] ESH has had plenty of interest but bidding's been slow unfortunately. [/quote] Decent late effort though..?

    Just got a bass neck. Nice easy deal, many thanks!
  16. topo morto
    Ooh, interested! How does it compare to your Lakland ? They're both 35" passives, I think?

    Forum rules : even if you are just after trades, you need to give a trade valuation of the bass

    From comments on other threads, the uploader is dead - that was with the [IMG] tags. All merely an excuse for looking at basspr0n!

    Don't suppose you'd have a trade interest in any of these bits? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196268-way-huge-pork-loin-fender-sub-lime-etc/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196268-way-huge-pork-loin-fender-sub-lime-etc/[/url]

    A few bits sold, a few bits now on ebay.

    Very pretty. I don't really get what an Aerodyne is, they all look so different to me!
  24. topo morto
    Aha. That's better than it being marooned somewhere away from the bass! Idiot question, is that a passive setup or is there a pre / active EQ in there?
  25. topo morto
    Looks lovely. Don't suppose the original neck is included..?
