  1. Bought David's Joe Osborne Flatwounds. Item as described, well packaged, quick delivery. Excellent transaction all round! 👍
  2. Can anyone tell me if they have silks at the headstock end? Thanks folks 🙂
  3. Hi, possibly a stupid question, but what does "tw" indicate on the E & B strings of the 5-string sets? Something wrap, maybe? Cheers 🙂
  4. Ed was a pleasure to deal with. Good comms, item well packed, arrived promptly, and was exactly as described. Definitely recommended! 🙂
  5. Ooooh, if they do that Central as a 5-string I could be I trouble! 🤤
  6. Where did you get the machine machinehead covers? I want some too! 😄
  7. Yep, I regularly go to the Edinburgh store and buy stuff from them - basses, amps, pedals, leads etc... and I've traded some gear in too. They're a good crowd, they stock a wide variety of products from a pretty varied array of manufacturers, they don't bug you, there's no hard sell, and the manager knows I regularly spend decent sums of cash with them so he never refuses a discount if I smile and ask him for his "best price" on any given item! 😉 I like 'em! 🙂
  8. I've used Roto 55's for fretless for years. They're stainless groundwounds, so you get that brightness without all the fretting noise associated with rounds, and you can slide notes and harmonics easily.
  9. Oooh, that's lovely, especially with the pickguard in place! 🤤
  10. Yeah, I had a 4-string Stingray for ages but ended up selling it. I never played it as I'd moved back to 5's, but instantly regretted selling it. I've been looking for a 5-string replacement for a while now and this Cali Central just nails that distinctive StingRay tone. I A/B'd it in GuitarGuitar against a 4-string and a 5-string EB Stingray and I guarantee you literally could not tell the difference. If you blindfolded Sterling Ball I think even he'd have a hard time telling which is which, it's that good. You should go for it!
  11. Here's my most recent addition - a 5-string Central. This thing is a StingRay killer! 😎
  12. A 5-string Sire V7 has just popped up for sale (no affiliation):
  13. Awesome! 🤘 Whats the cab in the middle? I don't recognise it.
  14. Good ol' Binkies! I know that backdrop all too well, stood up there many a time! 🙂
