  1. [quote name='Beedster' post='96261' date='Nov 29 2007, 05:45 PM']Well iuf it's graphite you want, you can't beat a Flea, and there's a few to choose from at the moment as well :huh:[/quote]

    Your a bit fast on the uptake there!

    Not a fan of Modulous Fleas though. Not unique enough for me :) I like things a bit special.

    However if a 70's P or J came up in the colours i like then maybe i can be swayed.

  2. Bump. Seems like this might be happening again this coming January, i am currently looking for vintage fenders, 8 strings, trem equipped basses, Good basses for metal, Antigua Finished basses. Graphite, Headless basses. etc.

    let me know what you have, which you might sell in a couple of months time!

    [url="http://www.warmoth.com/showcase/sc_guitar_bodies.cfm?type=bass&start=21&itemNumber=BP336&menuItem=2&subMenuItem=0&subMenuItem2=0"]Warmoth Antigua[/url]

    (But personally I hate it...)[/quote]

    I have definatly considered Warmoth, But its no substitute for the real thing. I know someone who has two Antigua P's One Fretted and One Fretless, I'll have to take pics at somepoint.

  4. Hey guys.

    I am gassing for a vintage Fender, Unfortuantly it seems like i will only be able to afford a late 70's. So post your 70's basses, Especially looking for Antigua Finishes, But anything would be great!

    Wish i could start you guys off but ah well :)

    Cheers. Rob.

  5. Hey guys.

    Celestion G12S-50 speaker. Holds its own on stage and in the studio!

    Great 80's Rock sound. You get some nice High gain out of this thing. Really good tone for such a small amp. Its pretty articulate and Reverb is FANTASTIC. Good clean sounds also. A nice portable amp.

    Welcome to try it out anytime. Pickup is from Bristol. The only reason why its this cheap is because it has to be picked up from my place.

    £50 = CHEAP. :)

  8. [quote name='Soulfinger' post='87743' date='Nov 13 2007, 09:02 AM']Hey, I actually like that!

    Just what are all those switches for? :)[/quote]

    Main volume, Booster Volume, Main Tone, 3 Way Pickup switch, Booster switch, 6 position Varitone switch, Phase, Series, parrellel.

  9. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='87658' date='Nov 12 2007, 11:42 PM']Great looking bass! Did it used to belong to Lorne?

    +1 to all you said about 'not enough love for BCRs on the forum'; they may look a bit different to the norm but in my experience, they are often amazing sounding basses...

    Here's mine with it's 80s white Dimarzios!!



    Nik[/quote]

    Is that a neck thru right there?

    And yes, It belonged to Lorne, I bought a Mock bass off of him and played the eagle whilst there, And fell in love, Wanted it for for over a year and got a chance to buy it, An offer i couldnt refuse, Sold practically half my collection to buy it.

    :)

  10. Not enough love for BCRs on the forum.

    Here is my Custom shop Eagle. Used at 2004 winter Naam on the BCR stand. It was made in 2003.

    Full electrics, Top notch top quality and all the extras.













    Some people have commented on the white pickup covers not really fitting the bass. But i have an appreication for the 80's :)

    Its all mahagony Neck Thru with Walnut stringers, Ebony board. The best bass i have ever owned.

  11. Hey guys, I know alot of you guys are from around south.

    I am filling in for a bass player who has slipped a disk for an alt rock band.

    Lots of different influences, Were the only band on the night.

    Its at the Wunder Bar in Midsomer Norton 8 oclock start. Only a quick 30 minute set. Come on down if your around! Free entry.

    Heres the bands myspace. [url="http://www.myspace.com/thebandoftheeye"]http://www.myspace.com/thebandoftheeye[/url]

  12. [quote name='steve-soar' post='77157' date='Oct 20 2007, 10:30 PM']My head says NO, my heart says YES. Why should everything look like a Jazz Bass or a Fodera?[/quote]

    I'll take that KGB headless;-)

    Anyway, Your right, Pointy is good, its a showbase in every sense of the word, but plays bloody nice, hit me up with an offer if you feel like going crazy :)(
