[quote name='BassApprentice' timestamp='1490697623' post='3267105'] Fair reasons, have to say I didn't know that it was a 'thing' to use the North of Scotland as a fake location, good to know. [/quote] Nor did I! Hmm, wonder if that's why my Schecter didn't sell...

This just reminds my of my first ever cab - 1x15 bought off ebay, got it delivered and plugged in - sounded terrible. Opened it up and most of the speaker was being held together with sellotape on the back, including where this one's been punctured. So yeah, don't use sellotape

I can't believe I forgot about this guy - Good to see he's still as creative as ever.

I belive I took advantage of the same clear out as above. Mark, the generous chap that he is, just sent me a very well packaged set of pickups and tuners. Asking only for the price of postage to be covered. Couldn't have gone smoother - Thanks again

Think this is the first time I've ever posted something in this section - Only started looking as I'm going to try my hand at some upgrades etc for my first bass (Jim Deacon P) Before I do too much to it, the body has been signed* using a silver marker. Wouldn't be an issue but it stretches up on to the forearm contour and has already shown a wee bit of fading. Any recommendations for what I can use to give it bit of a protective layer? The body is black so I imagine whatever I use will need to be used all over but happy to be told otherwise *Oscar from Ocean Colour Scene for those interested

FWIW I've just watched those videos and I now have some tools in my Amazon basket totalling £15 or so. Going to dig out my old Jim Deacon and give it a go for the first time. Keep an eye out for the "disaster" thread

I've had a look through this thread as doing a search for Dundee brought it up but not seen anything - mobile's not the best for searching! Anyone in or around Dundee? Emailed one or two but none have replied
