[quote name='deepbass5' timestamp='1343069631' post='1744793'] Your credit card company will charge you a poor exchange rate though. Just check what it is first so you don't get a suprise [/quote] Yeah, a big +1 to this. I got hammered pretty well by Barclaycard. It's worth calling/emailing them to find out what their exchange rate charges are just before you go for it.

Nice one and a cool build in the making! If you don't mind telling - How much roughly will your build come in at? Cheers, Jon

Sad news indeed. Babbitt & Lord on the same day

[quote name='slobluesine' timestamp='1342434076' post='1734658'] if i buy something here 'new boxed' should i expect 12 months warranty? [/quote] A Private/2nd hand/One off item from here, Gumtree, eBay, etc then No. New from a dealer or shop then Yes. [url="http://whatconsumer.co.uk/second-hand/"]http://whatconsumer.co.uk/second-hand/[/url] Warranties are only transferrable at the Maufacturer's discretion so may be worth investigating a bit more.

Don't know why, but WOW me likey!!! [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Lull_JAX_T_4_Red.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Lull_JAX_T_4_Red.html[/url]

[quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1342360257' post='1733677'] I will admit, I personally don't like using the low string all the time, I try to use it sparingly but not really possible in some sub-genres or with certain guitarists [/quote] I think this is my thinking on the 5th string with respect to Metal

[quote name='Bassman Steve' timestamp='1342202728' post='1731673'] Thanks Jon, if I were an MM player I'd have had that gorgeous anniversary bass of yours. [/quote] Very kind of you Steve. It's in The Gallery now should anyone fancy buying it! Any chance of some more pictures of your new bass for a better look at the 'mojo' Steve?

What a nice old bass. It will look great with the tort plate!

ooh, With a nice guitar like that I'd get it to a reputable luthier...

Don't pass up the opportunity of our very own member OBBM (Dave) and his glorious cable business: [url="http://bassic-bits.co.uk/"]http://bassic-bits.co.uk/[/url] I believe there is a Basschat discount too!

Yes - Too high indeed.

For me this: Guns N Roses - Nightrain. This is a live version that pretty much nails the feel IMO [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FbDSqf55Co"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FbDSqf55Co[/url]

Received some strings today that I bought off Dan and all went well. Thanks Dan and all the best, Jon

Hi topcat3355, On the Barefaced Bass front have a read through Alex's very good Tech Info for more food for thought: [url="http://barefacedbass.com/technical-information.htm"]http://barefacedbass.com/technical-information.htm[/url] Also I believe that the amplified output from low B string to our human ears means we hear the harmonic notes more than the fundamental note so the need for a 30Hz cab is not as critical as you may think... There's some great info on here about all that if you search through, I tried but couldn't find anything immediately so please shoot me down if I'm wrong! All the best, Jon

[quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1339675427' post='1692434'] ...Strange coz that was originally soldered by Fender, not me... [/quote] I've had trouble with a new pickup like that once before so it does happen. Friday afternoon specials maybe?

That looks great Twigman, well done! The Rosewood looks nice and dark which is my fave.

Just bought a bridge off Tony and it was a fast & smooth deal. Thanks, Jon

[quote name='ped' timestamp='1339434989' post='1688435'] OK now updated - have a play and see what you think folks ped [/quote] Nice one ped, that's just what the Doctor ordered Thanks for doing that!
