  1. [quote name='Number6' timestamp='1445295561' post='2890444'] Looks like it will do the trick and always handy to have anyway.....enjoy new amp day!! [/quote] Thanks! Eeee I'm excited
  2. Hi guys I've finally ordered my new amp, and it arrives tomorrow. But I'm a goon and didn't realise it only takes a Speakon, and I've only got 1/4" jack speaker cables. I've ordered the right lead, but it's gonna take a few days to arrive - I'm excited to try out the new head! Will this do, in the meantime? http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/neutrik-na4ljx-speakon-to-635mm-mono-jack-adapter-n25aj Thanks in advance

  4. Thanks for putting this together I skipped over the fodera (active) and the nordy. Hope that's ok but wanted to stick with the actual passive jazzes. It was between the 66 and the 08 for me, but I think the 08 just about took it. All sounded great though.
  5. [quote name='Machines' timestamp='1435438656' post='2808866'] Stunning, although it'd be great if you could post some detailed pics. [/quote]
  6. Finished! Immense build Andy, you've got some serious skills. And I always enjoy reading what you have to say. Nice
  7. Just discovered this! Don't have time to read it all now but following for later
  8. Where did you get it? I haven't seen one for sale in ages
  9. Lovely! I'd love one of those but alas, I think I'm too late
  10. Damn. I was about to message you to discuss. Keep me in mind if it falls through.
  11. I tried one of those and it was about 8.5lbs for a 5 string. my old SR600 4 string was just over 7lbs
  12. I had the same bass, and really miss it neck was too big for my girl hands though. GLWTS dude
  13. [quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1432910963' post='2786162'] One strap to fit them all, One strap with which to play them, One strap to balance them all; on lighted stage to slay them. [/quote] Day = made.
  14. Reminds me of a 1950's Cadillac. Love it.
  15. Absolutely gutted. My favourite bassist, and probably one of my favourite musicians full stop. R.I.P. Rutger.
  16. Hello all So, I've managed to avoid buying a bass for 2 1/2 years now. Been holding out for "the one" but nothing off the shelf has really got me interested. My two current basses are okay, but they're cheapos and I have to set the damn things up almost every time I go to play them, and I've had enough of that really. So I'm looking for something a bit higher end, I fully understand that no bass will be "set and forget" in terms of set up, but maybe something that has to be adjusted a few times a year rather than every week would be better. As I've not bought a bass in so long, I've been saving my pennies up, and I've decided to go the ACG route - they're fantastic looking and sounded basses, and although I've never actually played one, I can't see myself being in any way disappointed by one at all. It might seem a bit silly to buy a £1100 instrument when I'm not in a band, but I love playing bass and want an instrument that's all mine, and I can have and play for years to come. and I might be in a band in the future - my dodgy hands are improving slightly since I started using short scales so you never know... Anyway. I want some help with specs. I've never done this before so am a little confused by it all. Have briefly chatted to Alan via email and he's been really really helpful, but I don't want to bug him about every little thing while I'm trying to make my mind up on the small details. Ok, so, I'm looking for something about 8.5lbs max, and well balanced on a strap or sitting. neck will be maple with wenge centre stripe. Fretboard - I absolutely adore the look, sound and feel of wenge, but is there any reason that I should choose rosewood instead? I asked Alan about symmetrical carve for the neck and 16" radius for the board, he seems to be happy with those. Dual AC FB humbuckers in standard jazz layout - I'm pretty set on this, but let me know if there's any reason I should consider an alternative. Body wood - this is where I'm really stuck. I'm going for the J type design, and the choices of body wood are black or white limba, or alder with a choice of top - torn between alder with flame maple top and black pickguard, or solid alder with grunge black finish. Not sure how the weight/balance would be with alder though. What do you think chaps?

  18. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1429779295' post='2754773'] Anyone in the West Country recently had a Cort 5-string nicked? [/quote] Ha, that was the main reason for the post, but I just didn't feel right assuming it was nicked haha
