If it was me I'd change the knobs for something darker, but to each etc. These are fine basses, you won't be sorry you bought it

This thread has definitely jumped the moon.

David Bowie is The Knife's silent partner.

Amp with headphone socket

There's usually one up on eBay. I wouldn't have it if you paid me, personally.

Fireworks. I hate them.

Got a black one somewhere... I need to get it out and play with it (oo-err Matron!). As I recall, it's pretty good. (It's on my list of "I don't play this, I should sell it", so if you're after a second-hand one then let me know. Cheeky, or what...)

I have used one of these http://www.diy.com/departments/floplast-grey-soil-pipe-dia110mm-l1m/245701_BQ.prd Probably overkill

[quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1415138732' post='2597210'] Another one in Hampshire, I think - hard to be sure because of the rotten pic, but the headstock shape is right. I've asked the seller to confirm (and where in Hampshire he is, given it's collection-only).

Hmm.

[quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1415132571' post='2597119'] these [url="http://www.musik-produktiv.co.uk/hercules-stands-gs402b-mini-staender.html"]http://www.musik-pro...i-staender.html[/url] [/quote] These are OK but do be careful and make sure the vertical arm is actually locked up... I put a bass on mine once, and it sagged backwards into the wall with a nasty clunk.

Oddly, I'm not "amazed by how rare this is". Sometimes things are rare for a very good reason...

Vox Standards had DiMarzios, IIRC. Mine is a bit weedy but has great tone if you crank it up

Peavey UDI looms North of the Border...

Ad no longer available...

I'd take the p out of it

Ooh... okay, so that's pretty much a P-J Foundation? My Peaveys are not migrating north, BTW. Though I did get the pink Foundation out for a plunk this morning (ooo-err Matron!).
