  1. Yep shame. I would have had the J 5er .... and the P-esque ... aw heck I'd have had the lot.
  2. [url="http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=3869491755"]Pearl Jammin'[/url] tonight in [url="http://www.rockersglasgow.co.uk/index.html"]Rockers[/url] ...and I'm full o' the feckin' flu.
  3. Bought a set of D'Addario EXL 160-5 Nickels off Stuart. Top bloke. Fast, smooth transaction. Cheers buddy. Rich.
  4. Wow is it a full moon or something?
  5. Tell you what though, if he'd actually sat down and thought for a minute that maybe one day there would be this revolutionary technology and ultimately life altering new virtual medium called The Internet and there'd be all these guys getting all shirty about whether or not it was a good idea he'd certainly think twice about it. Shame really coz I still like it - [b]especially the J surround plate[/b]. But 500+ clams is like ughhh!
  6. I like it . (I'm gassing JPs at the mo) But isn't he asking too much for what it is?
  7. A case of one man's "[b]fairly professional job[/b]" is another's "[b]complete and utter fu<k-up resulting in trying to dump onto some mug off ebay job[/b]" I feel.
  8. I'm a sucker for a bit of spalt, and that one is seriously nice but for me the neck and body don't quite match aesthetically. Apart from the tonal mismatch (colour) the organic warmth in the body is imbalanced by the stark flame maple on the headstock face (ooh hark at me I've gone all Culture Show). To put it crudely it looks like a cut n shut... a very lovely cut n shut. A bit of that beech on the headstock face would have finished it to a tee. IMHO.
  9. Ok but the only time I ever hear of Mr. Tune-o-matic it's in regard to this CAR Jazz and I'm not even in the market for one so it must be working. Also, I might be wrong but isn't it free (and legal ) to re-list an item that hasn't sold?
  10. I think that what he is doing is great to bring awareness about a purveyor of top end goods who is ripping people off without any cares - and who btw way has a supremely worse attitude than the guy we're talking about here - he brags about his cars and homes like a cheesy pimpin' G as justification of him being right/better.
  11. I don't know where mine is.
  12. I found the TU-2 to be a bit twitchy (especially on stage - a boffin told me it might be due to electromagnetic noise ???) and replaced it with my Korg DT-10. No more twitchy.
  13. You'll be changing your screen name then Kevin.
  14. He has taken on board the question about the 50 quid shipping and re-listed it.

  15. Nah man leave it. Sloppy add and it is sold "as is". What you gonna do if it's a raft - send it back to Hollywood? There must be something closer to home.
  16. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='446608' date='Mar 26 2009, 10:28 PM']I run 2 amps, its hassle. Hassle is Doom. Uber mud low end from one and some sort of punch and definition from the other. Plus loads of distortion without dropping the lows, and being able to move from in front of one to the other for low feedback and high feedback. Its dynamic. [b]In practice I use an office chair to scoot between them[/b].[/quote] I want to be allowed to do that on stage.
  17. Thanks guys I wasn't really looking for advice on how to do it or alternative/better methods. I was just after the science of boiling. Y'see what I do is if I like a set of strings, when it comes to replacing them I boil them up, bag them and label them then put them in my gig bag (replacing the last set) so in the event of an emergencies (like a string snap - never happened yet but you never know) I've got a zingy spare ready instead of some dull old bit of wire. Yes I'm that anal. [quote name='Buzz' post='447383' date='Mar 27 2009, 03:24 PM'].... not hot enough to affect steel/nickel at that level, the heat will make it expand a little though.....[/quote] This answers my question I think. Cheers [quote name='crez5150' post='447394' date='Mar 27 2009, 03:34 PM']I like to Saute mine in a little Garlic an ginger....... Mmmmmmm[/quote] Nice one.
  18. If he keeps it up the bass will become so infamous that it'll be worth the asking price one day.
  19. .... should you let them cool down or quench them quickly? In other words, is the boiling process just cleaning them or partially effecting the molecular structure?
  20. I know how it feel though. I only get let out of my case for gigging.
  21. [quote name='josh3184' post='447287' date='Mar 27 2009, 02:25 PM']sorry for my assumptions, think I misread. Apologies![/quote] np's
  22. Can't you get a mate to accept the money for you? The bank manager need never know.
