  1. Eek...you get the idea, they can be in dual reciprocal tuning or std 4ths B to Bb.
  2. I got an SB 8 std 4th tuning in july from a guy in NYC, havnt found a band to use it in yet.
  3. [quote name='XB26354' post='366891' date='Dec 31 2008, 10:23 AM']That would be Mark Plati, sometime band member and producer of the distinctly mediocre [i]Hours...[/i][/quote] Just listened to Lodger, now adrian belew strangling a guitar and george murrays near funk style on bass, amazing, but I thought I better listen to hours again and...a bit depressing but a great album none the less.
  4. Do what the rods do......wing it !
  5. New years bump for a trade on my L5500 or sell , Im tempted by a jazz bass trade thats been offered but I am a one pup man really, anyone ?
  6. If you find it on dvd let me know please as ie only got it on vhs, so an upgrade would be well handy, on this topic ive gotta say mike garson and sterling campbell play outta their skin in places, a very good gig on so many levels. afterthought...I loved the mike garson, gail ann dorsey, zachry alford, reeves gabrels line up, that fookin' rocked big time.
  7. [i]EARL SLICK[/i].. yep, you couldnt make up a better rock guitarist name, jerry leonard of irish band spooky ghost replaced mark plati, as for miss gail ann dorsey....freddy eat your heart out...

  8. Mark Plattie bowies producer at the time was playing 2nd guitar to earl slick and swapped with gail on ashes, the dvd/video is worth a look too...especially wild is the wind, oh you guessed im a bowie nut, whoops.
  9. [quote name='chris_b' post='366268' date='Dec 30 2008, 02:42 PM']Damn.... better not waste my time on you lot then![/quote] LOL, Nice reply...

    SOLD !!!

    Well if you fancy a 5 string...theres my G&L L5500.
  13. And I was just about to give up. lol. But thats the bassists job laid bare and as for the dug in tone, I must admit I love it, thanks for that, any entwhistle with band removed out there ?
  14. Its my 3 piece Break for the border, not the other guys...
  15. Yep, loads of bassists and no gigs. . I may just go down to riga on friday, I have a gig either fri or sat, I know steve and dave at riga and they need all the support they can get, I will find out what im doing and get back to you, @ guzzibass Im at the shoulder of mutton where you saw the yaks, im sure its saturday but will double check.
  16. I have a really nice G&L L 5500 for a trady haggle thingy.
  17. Hi from...er hadleigh, shall all the A13 crew meet up for a beer before christmas ?
  18. Im not really this ugly, im actually uglier..I didnt take this off all night, a bit of right hand adjustment as the pup is in the p bass position rather than nearer the bridge as im used to but its an amazing passive bass, the 3 position switch does parallel, series and series with bass boost. anyone who dont play leos best kept secret should try one.
  19. Bass turned up by fed ex, 3 days, nyc to newark, to memphis, to stanstead, to chelmsford, to me. Well new g&l hiscox case is pants, it doesnt line up and lock close, bass however is a stunner, D string frets out on first fret and neck way out, climate and humidity I guess , cos this morning its straight as an arrow, sound amazing , its hard to believe its passive, finish is stunning, at rehearsals tonight...
  20. [quote name='guzzibass' post='344921' date='Dec 3 2008, 11:12 PM']Hi Nig - looks real lush. Here's my '89 L1000! [/quote] I'll send you my address for that, all donations are most welcomed... President..G&L PROTECTION AND REHOUSING LEAGUE.
  21. Thanks guys, its a # 8 or jazz profile neck in satin finish, tobacco burst , its passive and has a standard MFD in the precision bass situation, not nearer the bridge like the L1500, the L1000 has been discontinued for many years so this was quite a coo, babp did a ltd edition L2000 last year, we hope for an el toro rerun next. :wub:
  22. I placed an order with mannys thru Bad ass bass players in the u.s for a limited edition G&L L1000 in April, I could pick body colour, neck finish, size and board, so last night from the shop I got an e mail with my first pic of my bass weighing in at an incredible 8 lb 3 oz I believe, nice n light, its now on its way to me for christmas...

    G & L SB-2

    Just looking at that, its one hot bass, I stand corrected the now ,sb2 is a sb1 with the added pup, as yours has the hot p bass pup and the slightly sexier curves than the lb 100, thats a sweetie too, I have an emerald blue ( americans eh ) climax, love the colour.

    G & L SB-2

    It came from the states and I think someone had a custom scratchplate made so as it looked like a stingray, I took it off and filled the holes with black filler its the same as the G&L Lynx in all but name, the later SB 2 is an L100 with an added jazz pup , close to the sb1 which id a p bass with a great leo pickup, thats way better than a p bass.
