  1. I have one of these double gig bags from Ibanez. If you need a double that is, great value too .... [url="http://www.dv247.com/invt/50304/"]http://www.dv247.com/invt/50304/[/url]

  5. [quote name='Macko1968' post='458805' date='Apr 9 2009, 08:49 PM']As I understand, so you could lay it on its back on a hard surface without damaging the finish. A piss-poor solution to a non-existent problem.[/quote] Handy ..
  6. [quote name='beerdragon' post='458768' date='Apr 9 2009, 08:03 PM']That went for £160. Bidder No6 was a weird one joined today and bid six times but didn't want that badly.[/quote] Well he's got no excuse for thinking it's a real one... What was the plastic button thing for?

  8. [quote name='The Funk' post='457212' date='Apr 8 2009, 11:35 AM']I would have thought 4s for the most part - but then I don't know much about Ceilidh. Might check out one of the jams in town and skulk at the back.[/quote] Ha ha Ceilidh jams? Sounds interesting or do you mean a "session"? You may be right though as Tauzero uses a Thumb and a WAV EUB, both 4's for his Ceilidh gig and I use a 5 string P and a 4 string EUB ...
  9. [quote name='51m0n' post='458185' date='Apr 9 2009, 10:48 AM']No, he uses a paragraph cos he's a t0553r[/quote] The biggest to553r in the world. We occasionally play the "talk like a top gear presenter" game at home where you have to have that gap before the end of every sentence..
  10. [quote name='mike257' post='458148' date='Apr 9 2009, 10:15 AM']Love it! Coincidentally, also my favourite lookin' SG.... one day, one day. I'd have to say Jazz, based on what I'm using every day right now, but I've got a sneaking feeling a P might sound ace with the new band, so I'm keen to try one. That Sandberg PM4 in the for sale is giving me sleepless nights![/quote] [shamless sale plug] How about my [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=45631&view=findpost&p=453195"] Valenti P4[/url]?

  11. [quote name='Mrs Tinman' post='458007' date='Apr 9 2009, 12:20 AM']Ooooh Si - I think I love you ( but now I feel obliged to say - but I wanna know for sure ) They don't make 'em like that anymore [/quote] Ooooooh Now you tell me! .. even if its the pedal steel bit at the end that I love? PS the Midge Ure Friday Night Karaoke "Stars on 45 Edit" of No Regrets should be avoided at all costs, not even a pale imitation of the Walker's one, or the original.
  12. I asked him for a serial number "can't find one" so I explained that it was certainly a fake then ... We'll see if he adds anything to the auction. So it's quite obviously a "P???? Cock!" Edit.. He has added "ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE ASKING IF IT HAS A SERIAL NUMBER--ITS PLATE AT THE BACK IS BLANK; PEOLPE ARE SAYING THAT MOST TRUE FENDERS WOULD HAVE A SERIAL NUMBER ON THEM. " Fair play .. I guess the £100 it's got up to is just £50 more than it's worth then ...
  13. [quote name='Oscar South' post='458131' date='Apr 9 2009, 09:46 AM']I was much better on 4 than 5 and they recommended I stick with it, and I agree.. I played 4 strings for 4 years before I switched to 5 and I just simply 'play better', I get more productive practice done, I'm technically better and I rarely even use the low notes anyway, I'm more of a middle regester guy.[/quote] Oh that's Ok then .. Thought it was a course on antediluvian bass playing where the only real bass is a 4 string ...
  14. [quote name='Oscar South' post='458094' date='Apr 9 2009, 09:01 AM']I've downsized to 4 strings under orders from my university tutors[/quote] Eh? What are you studying?
  15. [quote name='Buzz' post='457983' date='Apr 8 2009, 11:50 PM']Pffft, Tele's are pretentious yet you choose an SG, the rock god wannabe guitar? Interesting [/quote] OT but Jesus loves an SG, specially a triple PU white one with Bigsby .. Just love that little Pete Townsend windmill move at 1:49 in the rocking solo
  16. No Regrets is one of my top tunes - brilliant arrangement and production and that rich baritone Splendid!
  17. Neck looks a tad narrow for a P bass ... and the gap between the A and D strings looks wider that the other two .. Knobs are wrong, of course, I'd like to see it with the covers off. At best I'd say thats a CIJ or MIJ 57 RI but it could be a Jim Deacon or Noname or SX with a transfer and modded headstock. Knows nothing about the Les Paul he's selling either but at least he's got a picture of the Made IN Japan neck plate on that one. PS That's a Wren isnt it?
  18. [quote name='bassace' post='457625' date='Apr 8 2009, 05:25 PM']Pardon my ignorance, but what's an Oxford comma? Somebody tell me please.[/quote] It's the comma before the "and" in a list of things. EG Fender has produced several classics down the years: the Precision Bass, the Jazz Bass, the Mustang Bass, the Paisley P, and the Stratocaster
  19. [quote name='tauzero' post='457594' date='Apr 8 2009, 04:52 PM']Actually, I'm quite happy with split infinitives, as long as people know how to elegantly split them. And I've used Oxford commas for years. But Lynne Truss - pah. I got into a minor flame war in one newsgroup about the apostrophe in "three day's/days notice". I think that the apostrophe is wrong and that it should be "three days notice". The reason put forward is that it is "notice of three days", to which I reply that "eyes of blue" wouldn't be written "blue's eyes". Then someone started citing web pages at me, so I wrote a web page that said that the apostrophe was wrong and cited it back at him... [/quote] Arf Trying to define what is correct in grammer is a bit like knitting fog ... It moves faster than ever now..
  20. [quote name='NJE' post='361819' date='Dec 23 2008, 12:31 PM']My friend came up by train from Cardiff to get his guitar amp from them, shows how good they are and how bad Cardiff is.[/quote] ? Compared to where? Cardiff's actually pretty good for mainstream stuff. We have 5 or 6 independent music shops selling a variety of basses and gear and a couple of used gear shops too. No Reverb though .. What are you looking to buy? That will give us some ideas of where to point you.
  21. [quote name='Beedster' post='457248' date='Apr 8 2009, 12:06 PM']Damn, I'm after a early 70's Jazz neck PUP [/quote] oh just route the hole out a bit [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=270368909417"]78 set on ebay (US)[/url]
  22. Sold [attachment=23478:back.JPG] [attachment=23479:front.JPG] [attachment=23480:windings.JPG] I got this in the 90's some time for a PJ project. It was rewound by Will Williams in Bristol. It's a Fender jazz bridge pup measuring 95x18mm by 19mm high. Resistance is 8.5k ohms .. £60 posted .....
  23. Bump for various MIJ/CIJ Precision or Jazz trade possibilities. See OP
