was there a snowman. where ?

I bought WHUFC's SX Precision. I'm so pleased with it. It's great He's a really nice guy, very helpful, a pleasure to deal with and let me try his other basses over a cup of tea while I was there. Sorry I inadvertently stole his pick though !

Think I'll bring my, recently purchased from WHUFC on here, my SX '62 precision-alike because its really nice.

Oh no! More fuel for my Precision GAS. It'll end in domestic turmoil.

I had a Tribute GL2000 with maple neck. Great bass. The only downside was the quality of the pots. Mine started playing up not long after I bought it new. I've heard others with the same problem. The shop that I bought them from swapped mine for US Mighty Mite ones and it was lovely from then on. You could do it yourself but it's a bit tricky soldering as it's all a bit tight in there.

Good for getting started on new songs. Thanks Pete

I haven't much i the way of exciting toys to bring. I have a us Jazz bass, A peavey TL5 (Tim landers signature) and a markbass CMD102p if any one wants a go on any of these. If not I'll just come and bring myself. Happy to help out on any advice for setting up instruments for newbies as mentioned above somewhere. I can bring my feeler gauges screwdrivers and allen keys if it helps!

Great stuff. Thanks for that.

Me too. £10 to book my place if we can have payment details

mm? (sorry posted twice

mm?

Peavey do seem to be good at growl. I have a late 90's USA Peavey TL5 signature that I picked up for a snip on ebay . I think that the electrics are a forerunner of the cirrus and the mid sweep knob means that you can go from thump to growl really easily. My only criticisms are that the stacked pots are a bit flaky and the it has a big chunky old neck (34'' scale), which is fine when you get used to it, with a nice string spacing and low action. Haven't tried a new cirrus to compare but would imagine that they're quite different.

I'd behappy to pony up the dough ie ten quid in advance if we have a date that I can do and a venue

thanks for this, First Yes song that I heard ( Yessongs album I think) still love it.

[quote name='Conan' post='978489' date='Oct 5 2010, 04:01 PM']Yeah, but let's blame the bald guy anyway! [/quote] Absolutely see what happens when you give a drummer the microphone. He's always struck me as being a complete git. Good drummer though especially with Brand X

[quote name='silddx' post='978335' date='Oct 5 2010, 01:44 PM']I loved Tormato when I was 16ish too. And Drama. TFTO is a different matter [/quote] My name's Mike an I liked Yes in 1979 when I was 16-ish too (although I never would have admitted it then) and still do. Had all their albums and all individual members solo albums, including Olias of Sunhillow; Oh dear! up until Tormato. Also saw them 3 times. Thank you for helping me finally admit that sildxx. Going to spotify Relayer now
