THANKS IN ADVANCE WHAT IS ON THE MARKET TO EMULATE I HAVE TRIED THE BASS POD BUT DONT RATE IT?

[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='38884' date='Jul 30 2007, 11:55 AM']Yeah, it was March 1982, just read up on it again, you can look here for serial numbers to see when yours is actually from.... [url="http://freespace.virgin.net/john.blackman4/serial.htm"]http://freespace.virgin.net/john.blackman4/serial.htm[/url][/quote] Top Man! - Serial No is E91XXXX Which is a '84 Precision - Thanks
  3. [quote name='thedontcarebear' post='38071' date='Jul 28 2007, 10:27 AM']Is there any way to clean pitting on hardware?[/quote] Dont Clean!!!!! - All part of the ageing process - some folk pay good money for things like that.
  4. [quote name='thedontcarebear' post='38850' date='Jul 30 2007, 11:20 AM']How can you have a 1981 Japanese Fender? I thought they only started Fender in Japan in March 1982, with production beginning in April 1982?![/quote] Serial Number check = 1981 (BASSBOOK) - Thanks for your interest anyway - 1981 isnt exactly vintage! I would have preferred a Sunburst '67 I could have had in 1982 for £350 from A1 in Manchester Oxford Road....
  5. Took delivery of a Far East Hybrid BA115T Courtesy of Dolphin Music.Well double packed in Ampeg branded box.So far so good.Looked for the kettle lead.....missing!!!!!..... so I had to go without a few brews whilst trying it out.Shaped my sound Gain 10 Master 2 (in house) Treb 7.5 Mid 8 Bass 9 Style switch 2 gave a nice growly tone with my restrung Precision with plenty of G top end with pulloffs.Dont bother with the style switch much setting 2 is well bassy whilst setting 3 is totally flat to shape your own sound.Has a CD input for playalong untried as yet.All in all well happy with it and it is seriously LOUD...
