Poets day bump -
This is exactly how I feel about it these days. I've cut right back atm and only play where and when I want. It may be an age thing but I was sick and tired of playing to and for dickheads, this includes some landlords and band members. I've just turned 51 and have gigging since I was 17. I have virtually no interest in equipment any more. No GAS whatsoever. But my passion for cooking curry is getting bigger!!! Have a break mate and see how feel

Ibanez MC940 active circuit info please
police squad replied to police squad's topic in Bass Guitars
battery is fine as the active controls all work as they should. the passive tone also works. mine is the 79-82 model, any pictures or help would be gladly accepted, thanks -
yep I had similar with one of mine. It was capacitors but I'm not sure which. Got it fixed and it was fine
-
I have a rather splendid MC940, this is the fretless model. The switch that switches the active circuit in. My question is, when I switch it off, the whole sound is switched off. It should just revert to passive but doesn't. Any ideas how I could put this right? thanks in advance

JV , SQUIER fender,FENDER squier, fender, what's the difference?
police squad replied to spencer.b's topic in Bass Guitars
The JV serial numbers with Fender logo only were non-export models ie Japan only. They have obviously found their way over here -
my wife's bass from 11 years ago. It was a Valentine's Day present from me It's the Japan 70's reissue with USA p/ups. A mighty fine bass

Rhino has been in quo longer than Alan. Has played on many hits Andy Bown played with them before he was a full member. Again, played on many many albums Is Ronnie Wood a Rolling Stone? Of course he fkn is

Ian Paice Only original member of Deep Purple get over it people Mick Jones has never left foreigner .He missed some gigs which meant no original members but still tours as Foreigner

sounds to me cover band. BL heart not in it anymore. This happened to me last year. My band had been going 30 years (4 years with me as BL) Too much apathy and a Richard of a guitar player, so I let it fizzle out. Said I would honour all booked gigs. Tell them you are leaving at the end of the year. Originals band #1. can't be arsed. Just leave, stop wasting your time New orignals band, run with it. Look for new covers band. I turned 50 last year and have decided to only gig for fun. I want decent pay too. I'm just not playing for Richard head landlords or Richard head punters. I gig for pleasure, if I am enjoying it, I put on a better show

his main is a 57. I had the Sting signature for a while and it sort of purred. Ash body, maple board. Nice bass but then I had a replica made of his 57. Alder body, more thump but lovely

It did actually but it was in better condition. I'll have a quick look inside to fix it.

REDUCED TO £450.00 I have decided to sell my Musicman. i had one of these when they first came out. Used it, sold it, the usual thing. I bought this about 5 years ago I think. Did some gigs with it but mainly keep it in the rehearsal studio for when we practice. I'm just not using it these days as I have fallen in love with my '73 P bass again. It's in pretty decent nick for one of these. Original scratch plate is in the gig bag. Sounds like a Stingray should. I can now courier this for free in the UK I'm in Deal in Kent but work in Folkestone if you want to try it out No trades please, I've got too much stuff already

I have decided to sell my Moog Minitaur set up as I just don't use it anymore. It's been attached to a Pedal Train 2 board, along with the Keith McMillen 12 step controller and the midi expander. It's all you need to get Moog Taurus with no weight I bought this 6 years ago for my Police tribute. I set it up every gig and it sounds amazing. I don't do many Police shows these days and haven't used it for a couple of years now. I plugged it in, it all works as it should. Somewhere I may have boxes and manuals but I have moved house since I bought it all. I'll have a look though. It doesn't take up any space and I'm not desperate to sell. £550 is a great price for all this kit No trades and I will not split. It's a great set up I can possibly courier or you can come to see me in Deal, drink tea (or beer, I'm near the train station) eat biscuits and have a play of any of my Sting style basses

I once had a custom built bass, lovely neck, great sound. It lacked...........................don't know. It was rattly and just a bit rattly I took it to my local luthier, 'Have a look at this Andy' Andy fret dressed it. It still fkn rattled. Andy suggested changing the strings (the strings on it were new) So I put a set of my trusted RS66 on it Rattle? What rattle? Strings, yeah, they're quite important really
