Legs? I'm clearly on crack. Feet. Rubber knobby things.

(must take less crack)

"take" crack, lol. like anyone says that.

See how black, how Russian, how phasery it is.

Velcro on the base, with legs as well.

£45 posted to UK.

Thanks.

Makes your bass go nnnggggg or fffffffnnnggggg or grrrnnnggghhhh depending on the settings. Other sounds can also be created. If you like you can describe a sound below and I'll tell you if this pedal does it.

The metal casing of this thing is proper hardcore tuff stuff.

£15 plus £3 postage. No postage at all if you collect from Penge or Bromley in SE London. You can even have the battery.

Thanks.

It's solid wood; that's all I know.

Bought from someone here, I forget who. Standard Fender pocket width, whatever that is (I can get more precise if you need me to).

45 quid delivered quite literally to your UK doorstep.

Trade: a jazz bass body. Or suggest something else.

Collection from SE London (Penge or Bromley).

Thanks.

"It's like a dream, a magical dream"

Sounds like she fancies you.

And was the paying in cash bit significant? So they couldn't trace you afterwards once you made your getaway?

Or did the sticker really say £12.99 but you sneakily told them it was £10, and they didn't look to check? Maybe purposefully averting their eyes as they scanned it and put in a bag for you.

Er, are you pleased that you scored a good deal, incredulous at the sales assistant's reply/the shop's crap attitude, or amused at the sloppy price-tagging? It's not clear.

Has anyone else with a Sue Ryder P bass experienced this?

I bought a body and neck off someone here, and got round yesterday to putting in the pickups, a Seymour Duncan SPB-1, so I put in a bit of stiff foam (of the kind designed for this sort of thing), and then the pickups. I screw them in, get the pickguard on and everything good, and it turns out the pickups are at the same level as the pickguard. They don't rise up above it. It's very odd. I can't unscrew them any further or they'll come out. The screws are a standard enough length (two inches, maybe?).

There seem to be two solutions:

1. Buy longer screws and put more stuff underneath the pickups.

2. Glue some wood into the pickup cavity and screw the existing screws into that.

Can anyone think of good reasons not to do one or the other, or does anyone have any other suggestions?

The bass and the pickups work fine, but it just looks weird. And the pickups are a fairly long way from the strings, so it could all be a bit oomphier.

Put some clothes on as well.

Do that and I'll probably buy the neck off yer.

I don't agree with that mate. Otherwise Chris Squire would sound the same as Robbie Shakespeare.

Well yes. But I know what I mean. Sort of. But you're right of course.

(I had to google Chris Squire)

No, sorry. It's still twiddling.

You 'sculpt' the tone?

Come on. We twiddle some knobs to get a sound we like.

Yes. Yes it does. Which is why I still have a job

He was trying to say the opposite is in fact the case...

[i]es todo lo contrario[/i] is more what you were after.

I was a bit drunk last night. But still. Wow.

No, really. Come on guys, Look at those photos. Wow. Seriously.

You, sir, are an artist, a craftsman, a scholar, a visionary, the genuine article, a defender of the faith, a protector of the heritage of the tortoishell truth and dreams that are found within us all, and I salute you most humbly and most admiringly, from the geniune bottom of my poor sinner's ugly, debased, sickened and poorly heart.

I hereby declare my ever-lasting love and abiding devotion to you and your incredible wondrous delirious fantastical groovy-ass tortoiseshell acts of God.

I will be in touch. In the meantime, enjoy the praise and acknowledgement your artistry is bound to cause here on these shores. What you do is beautiful. Thank you.

Logan String Melody II... I got it for £75[/quote]

[b]Wow![/b] Nicely done. I've often tried to buy a Logan (for cheap). I have a Roland RS-09 which I like a lot, but would very happily own more string synths, especially the Logan.

Back in the day, when I lived in Spain, a friend once told me his family had some old "Yamaha organ" in their garage from some embargo case ages ago (his dad was a lawyer), and that it had been sitting on a shelf in a bin bag for years. I said, oh, yeah, great, would love to take a look. The next time we were up there at their house, I mentioned it, and he said, oh, yes, let's take a look. Here it is, you have it, it's no use to us.

It was a Korg MS-20.

And I'm not taking the piss.

[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Whoever that person is, they've got a great way with words:[/font]

[font=georgia,serif][b]THE QUEST[/b][/font]
[font=georgia,serif]That discovery led me on a search to find a modern pickguard with the same captivating craftsmanship—a search that led to dead end after dead end. I couldn’t find a single pickguard available today that resembled the quality of the original from the 60s. I realized that if I wanted to possess this art ablaze, I had to harness the elusive flames myself.[/font]
[font=georgia,serif]So I began researching how I could resurrect the exotic fiery relic. My determination began a years-long exploration. I never had a taste for chemistry in school, but passion drove me. I searched for the perfect compounds—some highly toxic. I experimented with admixtures, I tested materials, and sometimes at my own peril: blisters, blood and chemical burns challenged my resolve. But I should have known that when I attempted to tame the inferno it would bite. So I shifted tactics and continued my endeavor with greater respect for my newfound craft.[/font]
[font=georgia,serif]Then it happened: after many years, like a billowing explosion captured and frozen in time, [i][b]Spitfire[/b][/i] Vintage Tortoiseshell pickguards were born.[/font]

Hell yes! And it's all about Jesus, which is ace. Fire, brimstone, tortoiseshell, Jesus, it's fantastic.

You need to do the Litmus Configuration.
