  1. If adjusting the height of the pups doesn't work then adjusting your technique might be the solution. Do you play finger style?
  2. What Machines was getting at is that there are rules to posting here in the For Sale section - a key rule being setting a publicly visible sale price (private auctions are a big no no). It's all set out in the Ts&Cs [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&section=rules&f=19"]here[/url]. Oh and hi from Aberdeen... and a fellow G&L L-1000 ('80) owner.
  3. The '51 RI has a slab body. This one is based on the '54.
  4. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1321288765' post='1437363'] Their Facebook status update... [/quote] Ah cool thanks.
  5. Yay about time too... oh hang on I need drop C. Did you get that info by standard email notification. (I've noticed mine can be day later than some guys on here)
  6. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 7.5". [url="http://www.pickguardian.com/pickguardian/Images/Pickguardian%20Neck%20Radius%20Gauges.pdf"]Here's[/url] some gauges in pdf format - although 7.5" isn't there it should give you a decent idea.
  7. Pics pics pics
  8. Gently flex the p/g to see if the paint will crack and flake off.
  9. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1321277978' post='1437194'] I vote for 'Negged'. May I also pre-emptively vote for 'Negstorm'? Thanks. ...[/quote] [b]Negkrieg[/b]. [b]Mwahahaha. [/b] [b] [/b]
  10. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1321277024' post='1437177'] Shouldn't it be possible for the mods/admins to detect multiple identities almost automatically, through their (common) IP address? (not an expert here, so I may be wrong). ...[/quote] Nope you are right enough. It has happened before, however I'm not sure if the detection system was automatic or if it needed the crafty intervention of the forum elves. That was on the old forum's software, maybe this new software can do it.. I don't know.
  11. [quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1321276221' post='1437159'] Hm, why have a two-tier membership? I suppose you're entitled to have and express an opinion whether you've been a member for a month or several years, and if you're a dickhead, it probably doesn't make any difference to your behaviour how long you've been posting on the forum. [/quote] I think he has a point though as it could eliminate multiple screen identities being created in order to fuel a neg campaign on some poor schmuck. Admittedly it's only ever likely to happen once or twice. There is already a strong case for a "two-tier" system in the FS sections (where large amounts of money are at stake) so the practice wouldn't be quite as elitist as it may at first seem. I liked your earlier post btw.
  12. [quote name='Linus27' timestamp='1321271477' post='1437073'] HAHAHA I have already done that in the F1 2011 thread [/quote] Thankfully I think most of the regulars in the F1 thread will be able to resist negging out of pettiness. I'm not as hopeful for such a well balanced response outside of that thread though.
  13. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1321270144' post='1437053'] No, you big gay [/quote] No, you big gay
  14. [quote name='sk8' timestamp='1321262979' post='1436955'] You big gay [/quote] No, you big gay.
  15. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1321235155' post='1436879'] [size=4]Right, that was long enough. You can turn it off now, thank you.[/size] [/quote]
  16. How about we have a sticky thread documenting suspect serial numbers? Going on the premise that reproduction decal makers are printing runs of decals with the same serial on them and therefore a lot of suspect basses out there will be using these identical serials, a database of "flagged" numbers could save a lot of hassle and perhaps help avoid some major disappointments. Here's a starter for 10. [b]S7 35688[/b] a "78 Jazz" currently being discussed on here but previously discredited as being bogus a couple of years back.
  17. [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1321228756' post='1436838'] I thought this rang a bell. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/58115-john-entwhistles-jazz-bass"]http://basschat.co.u...stles-jazz-bass[/url] Got to be the same one surely. [/quote] Blimey. Well remembered mate. Yep same serial... although I guess a whole bunch of fake decals all have the same number on. Hey maybe we should start a database of hooky serials on here - could save a lot of hassle in the long run.
  18. [quote name='Vibrating G String' timestamp='1321230743' post='1436858'] I think reasonable people use it for reasonable purposes and non reasonable people for their own reasons..... .... [/quote] plus to the one
  19. [quote name='punkypuncher' timestamp='1321230373' post='1436854'] THIS SITE IS CRAP,THE DIFFICULTY IN TRYING TO UPLOAD PIC'S IS A NITEMARE,SORT IT OUT BASSCHAT. CHOP CHOP ANY INTEREST,EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND THE PICS. [/quote] Don't try and upload pics. Simply host them elsewhere (photobucket for example) then link to them using the green square "picture" icon above your edit box. Like this....
  20. [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1321228292' post='1436834'] ...... I think the like system is fun & if anyone takes it serious, then a life would be required [/quote] The like system is wicked. The dislike system on the other hand enforces negative thought.
  21. [quote name='munkonthehill' timestamp='1321224669' post='1436790'] Right thats it ya bunch of characters........All who were in on this are getting at least 10minutes of spooning at the bassbass. Just to clarify, I will be the BIG spoon [/quote] Don't tell Mike. He'll be right up for your big hairy bear action.
  22. The misemployment of "brought" for "bought" right at the start of the description pretty much made me tune out straight away. He's been into the neck pocket, shouldn't the neck have a stamp in the heel too?
  23. [quote name='BassBod' timestamp='1321213132' post='1436607'] Is that an oil finish..or has it been sprayed with something? Some sharper pics would be good (and yes, I'm old enough to remember them...) Its not the Hondo version, is it?? [/quote] I had one of those bridges on a Hondo once. Big fan of DiMarzio P's at the moment. Bet this sounds large.
  24. [quote name='protected' timestamp='1321209703' post='1436524'] PM'd [/quote] What? Is that on the off-chance that he's got a secret 3rd one for sale?
