I needed to get a mystery box delivered quickly to London over the weekend so I posted asking if anyone was [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/187432-anyone-travelling-from-yorkshire-to-london/"]travelling from Yorkshire[/url].
Paul was doing a round trip from Croydon to Loughborough on Sunday and offered to take the mystery box and contents (if any?) and hand it over to another bass chatter.
So I took him up on his kind offer and drove to meet him in Loughborough
It was a pleasure to meet Paul and chat for a while.
He's fine, outstanding member of the Basschat community
Thanks again Paul

The neck has got to be the hardest part of an EUB to make.
I spotted [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/stagg_edb_replacement_neck.htm"]this[/url] at Thomann
If I didn't already have too many basses or projects I'd be pullin' the trigger myself
Nice shape, nice flame, love the cello button, shame it's got a slim neck so I'm out.
And there is a rule that you must state an asking price or post will be removed.
Good luck with the sale anyway

I will try a spare Kolstein Heritage string
[/quote]
Don't forget Kolstein Heritage take a while to settle in and sound their best.
I believe they improve with time, after they've stopped strechin'
Try a different string on the fatback.
Don't change the whole set, just one string for whatever you've got in your spare box, then listen and compare.
It might be that the new pick up doesn't like your current strings!
What sounds nice acoustic doesn't always work amped innit!
This Tuesday 4th September at Balcony, Harrogate Cricket Club, St Georges Road

If I won I'd donate a [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Jazz-Bass-Book-Technique/dp/0879307161/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1344981644&sr=8-1"]bass book[/url] which for some reason I have two as new copies (+ c.d.'s) for the next bass book giveaway.
Just bought an Epifani UL110 from Chris
The cab arrived well packed and in great condition with speedy delivery
It was nice to chat to him on the phone and have no worries about any future transactions.
Cheers Chris
