What amp is it?

dry joint?

@JapanAxe Hughes & Kettner QT600 

@andybassdoyle who knows, caps needing replaced maybe? 
 

it’s well built and designed so will be fixable unlike some modern stuff. 

I don't but there's an artist in my wife's building who does all of that tin type stuff, photography mainly. I could ask him if you have a specific question or if you want to just go straight in he's [email protected].

Pretty sure it's SUBLIMATED.

If you've been surfing t'Net looking for SUBLIMINATION then you probably only got a very, very short glimpse of what is out there. 

@Happy Jack yeah that’s my poor spelling - my searching has been ok. I found people who could do it but found a different method which hopefully will work 

Moffat Toffee!!!! get some, you wont regret it

Moffat Basses!!!! get some, you wont regret it

FIXED!!

Get some toffe and a bass you won't I can highly recomend both (go for the toffe with Glenfarclas if you do)😁

Trying to buy a 2nd hand HX stomp that isn't £25 quid off the new price is also a pain  

Passing trains in the night 

 

I sold mine a few weeks back for £300 - stick a wanted post up on here, I replied to one to sell mine

Hope you get it sorted.

I haven’t had any problems here and I’ve spent quite a few thousands buying, I suppose there’s always a first time, hope you get it sorted Luke 

For clarity my purchase isn’t on basschat.

probably why it’s gone wrong 

Jamiroquai books by Stuart Clayton, always nice to see the dots to some good tunes 👍

Get yourself a solid single pack of strings for that....

Isn't being a bassist fun.

NUX Mighty Plug (great for practice when travelling, especially if you already have IEMs), Clip on tuner poly/unitune, Strings (as mentioned above), EBS patch leads, Quality cable.

@Bigwan - yeah… go big or go home! 

More like it came up looked good, I could afford and… well there’s like zero past sales to know if I under or over paid! 

Wow!
That is incredible!
I've played a 4 string Le Fay and the neck profile was to die for, super comfy.
We're going to need more pics...

❤️ 

Saving this one lol  

I think I've just woken up in a parallel universe

It's ok, the cheques went out in the post that morning... 

I had a DHL no-show last week, despite being informed of a 1hr delivery window. They tried the next day and the drop-off point supposedly refused the guitar. The drop-off point was recommended by DHL.

It's in Thomann's hands now.

I am getting the feeling the answer was and is in the future something that rhymes with “Chase Effect”

I hope they eventually delivered your Thomann order. Mine arrived today undamaged, which is not bad at exactly 5 working days since I ordered it. Unfortunately, the main part of the order, which was a Guild B-240EF fretless acoustic bass had clearly not been through proper quality control. The nut and bridge were cut much too low. The first string was practically touching the fretboard immediately after the nut and it rattled horribly. The fourth string wasn't much better. It had quite a noticeable bow in the neck. I think that, rather than send it back for a new nut, the factory QC just slackened the truss rod a bit to make it almost playable. If I had tightened the rod to get less of a bow, the top string would have been touching all the way up. I am not sure if it is because of this but plugged in the middle two strings were much louder than the 1st and 4th.

I have started a return/replacement request but assuming it is collected on Friday, I am probably not going to see the replacement for another two weeks. This is the second time I have had to return a faulty guitar to Thomann. I suspect they just take the boxes out of the warehouse and post them without more than a perfunctory check. The battery was still in its plastic wrapper, so clearly it had not been plugged in before being posted and how anybody could think the setup was acceptable, I don't know. It is irritating but then I have had similar experiences with Andertons. It seems quality control is not a priority for the volume box shifters.

Dictators are funny.
I prefer the term 'trouser-spuds', though.

And Blair just got knighted.

I'm still waiting for the payment you promised...😉😉

Luke, if you go to 'dream Basschat' tonight you can check who you bought it off in the 'dream feedback' forum

just for clarity the dream was about a new bass amp, and I dreamed of meeting someone from here and discussing if I wanted the cabs and they might not fit in my car.... 
I was not actually dreaming of being on here talking to you lot!  

Was it on time?

yep!

It's not worth it, bail while you still can!

I did. A right culture war going on

Be afraid, be very afraid.

So many of the, let’s say controversial, topics are chasing their own tails.

I wouldn't know what to want anymore. Maybe the GAS will get triggered again though. First half of 2021 got me a 5str Sadowsky PJ, 6str Yamaha John Patitucci sig and a Warwick Thumb NT6. I-think-I'm-covered.

@DiMarco - you say it as if it's a bad thing to have no GAS?! 

@LukeFRC indeed. My current lack of gas is disturbing.

I just bought a Mesa Boogie V-Twin pedal 5 mins ago though so I can go Ben Shepherd style later on this week.

Pink is good.

She's very, very wise.

That's a free-pass as far as I'm concerned  

Couldn't possibly comment...

I was playing guitar, while supposedly participating in a team meeting online and somebody said, 'where's that music coming from?'. I'd forgotten to mute myself.

Ooooops....

@gjones wins this one

I recently picked up a new Mexican Player Series Stratocaster. Lovely, lovely guitar.

Japanese from 1988....

🤦🏻‍♂️😂

Cheaper, but not cheap? 

I had a windfall a year ago, bought some lovely basses, haven't had a gig since early March and I just sit there looking at them and feeling miserable. 

So the answer is no.

Bought a Fodera and a Stingray neck through 5 since the corona crisis started.
I am ecstatic by now, man!

Thanks @gjones

Suck-age

its a wipe the hard disk and start again job... luckily most the work was backed up in the cloud or on a hdd. 
Still will loose me over half a day reinstalling stuff

My wife has it on repeat and, dare I say it, its quite listenable (and I normally can't stand TS). Quite folky in a modern style

She's a keeper! 🤣

Now that's what I call a compliment.

or she knows less about music than I thought @Rich!

They do sit nicely in the mix.
