  1. It isn't as if gits are a rare commodity - part ways and audition the other 5million...for the one space.

  3. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334855498364?hash=item4df6f16a7c:g:BRUAAOSwOupkT-ai&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0OU4Z%2BQnfDocYFvH2QQYQzrrlKmRnCMjcY1JJE3C5ZNBP8p%2BsifOVpHRGNzSuuNebWRL%2F0HYGHCJQ78%2B2qX%2FK7A0xy8bB9lXzfgleet8lUly4fqFBACqn0NtuW9q7NkNrI%2Bh34S1lQIZ2uObBAr1xhPJO5TaGpD0IZnrwaw2g6wIZuRxI9BSPjdu6mMDG2b%2FNaLFoVWZDVbZx1xo%2B7%2FzXzHTAusg0ViwkwXq2acGMWGe5kPzpn2%2B4aITdQ1l7ngMF7pWAFkV7h0iooqp1Q4uwPY%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR_iVq4v7YQ
  4. I think somebody posted that the washers on bicycle brake blocks is an ideal fit too.
  5. Chrome plating - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Chrome_plating Prior to the application of chrome in the 1920s, nickel electroplating was used. In the short production run prior to the US entry into the Second World War, ...
  6. I/we ordered one when I had the pickup rout recut in my Kawai. @Grangur was full of praise.
  7. I ordered some Tapewounds from Amazon which they say were delivered - handed to me apparently. Complete bollox!! Probably left in the foyer which they do regularly, somebody swiped them thinking they might be valuable before finding they weren't to them. Took Amazon ages to make good on my order...it's like I was the criminal.
  8. Congratulations on the sale but TBH I think you'll regret it. Such a beautiful bass - I really needed to win the lottery.
  9. I have to wipe the drool of my chin now...
  10. Take your best shot - Dope
  11. Do it to me one more time - Captain & Tenille
  12. Not sure who bought them but @Jabba_the_gut's creations are amazing. See if you can borrow one of them (check the build diaries thread if you haven't seen them)
  13. Welcome to the Pleasuredome - FGTH
  14. Man in the cornershop - The Jam
  15. Not mine - I know nothing about this model other than it's semi hollow. I'm sure that those who know will know. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185526828639?hash=item2b3242be5f:g:1fwAAOSwrPZi4stc&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8PW7fpr9%2Br1pn82%2BgX%2Brio9yRBfhVvrhWXWL%2FXWtpeppkgMeRAGyQEQqOEgR23S63%2BjCXPDLfiZq89obobbq2uiO3iQeanZSYkL2BOk1URZuEzb5tpRhZj%2B6jUyvm3BzcGnUvQuHXR569JUeDderYBPN5krOlBYQvZHU%2BJ1%2B6lRldOIu%2FIzUrzEOVcD24C5qEAxcEglUHvQrsUSKFGHQgQ5kpMEZQ48h5t51y1OUvDKg514%2FsuVUADYMzmWvrIUCUfWa9c0cwpAlIO%2BJ6a3VpaU4VnC9yJPr1sbqqNO3c4erw9Bz3nEwu8Y8TwKmpahZOg%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR97torv6YQ
  16. Browsing....and was looking at the Sadowsky Metro Express PJ 5. They have them at DHGate which I believe is a Chinese site - are items like the Chinese made Sadowsky models they sell the real thing or just poor copies? https://www.dhgate.com/product/sell-like-hot-cakes-5-string-bass-guitar/537594367.html?f=bm|GMC|pla|755398248|39890016695|537594367|pla-293946777986|113003004|GB|li13683772583|c|2|&utm_source=pla&utm_medium=GMC&utm_campaign=li13683772583&utm_term=537594367&gclid=CjwKCAjwo7iiBhAEEiwAsIxQEbwF1lj_qgCBo2S1LStLaaIAsa23W2EDz6FDh38ZJhcX6LOUjDnPJhoCY7cQAvD_BwE
  17. Just saw this
  18. Now you need to kill him to limit the rarity of instruments he signed.
  19. I don't have any experience of them but they seemed to be well regarded. Have you tried any of the Ibanez range? Alternatively, with a £2K budget @Andyjr1515 could build you whatever you want (if he isn't already inundated).
  20. Are you thinking of moving?
  21. You know how you keep things - even though you don't need them - in case you ever need them? Ross came to my rescue when I needed a box to send a bass. Not only did he have a box, he had a box that fitted inside that other box. Double protection. A Godsend!! I expected a bit of trouble finding where he lived as I knew he'd moved since I'd last been round there (to pick up my second ever Trace Elliot) - he'd moved about 100 yards. Top, top fella!! He is the type of person that makes this forum so great. Thanks you, sir...

  23. As soon as I started reading this I was thinking "Mammoth" - enhanced performance may be the Emperors Clothes though.
