  1. Poor intonation on an acoustic would be a deal-breaker for me. Almost all electric guitars can be intonated by the average person with a few simple tools, but if an acoustic has been built wrong it's not an easy fix.
  2. [quote name='Pestie' timestamp='1468234311' post='3089396'] Three is a much more wholesome sort of number !!!!!!!! [/quote] I concur! (see signature...)
  3. [quote name='3below' timestamp='1468658518' post='3092392'] Do you have access to a luthier near to you. Get them to look at the cracks and give a diagnosis. My initial feeling from the pictures is that I would not describe it as EX condition. [/quote] I agree. I have no skill with woodwork, let alone luthiery - an expert eye is what you need.
  4. The cracks parallel to the line of the neck are along the join between the neck and the heel extension. The first photo also shows cracking parallel to the neck/body joint. I can't say from the photos whether the cracks go any deeper than the lacquer.
  5. [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1468500544' post='3091359'] This. [/quote] [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1468500866' post='3091362'] That. [/quote] [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1468501831' post='3091378'] Them. [/quote] [quote name='KevB' timestamp='1468501838' post='3091379'] The other? [/quote] [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1468503384' post='3091399'] Those. [/quote] What they said.
  6. Don't forget trade options: Les Paul Junior or Special (or maybe 339); Fender Deluxe 5E3 or quality clone.
  7. Mustang for the weekend.
  8. Lovely that.
  9. I'm pretty sure the current Boss phaser has a setting for this.
  10. I was the same until I tried a £1,000 instrument and realised it had something extra. Not 2 or 3 times as good as a £500 instrument but worth the extra to me. And that's the key - if it's worth the extra to you, you will pay it. My record now is £2,495...
  11. Some collection points have a size/weight limit because of limited space to store large/heavy stuff like basses and amps.
  12. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1468399644' post='3090616'] I'm not keen on an active Fraudster. Can these be converted to passive? [/quote]
  13. [quote name='acsme' timestamp='1468350469' post='3090378'] Hi is this still available mate?? [/quote] Indeed it is.
  14. Monday already bump!
  15. I'd love to try an Ampeg PF50T with my Barefaced cabs - anyone taking one to the SE Bass Bash?
  16. I had one of these, very well made basses. GLWTS
  17. Whilst packing up after a gig I tried to jump onto the stage but didn't quite get my foot high enough. I scraped the whole length of my shin against the edge of the stage. Stinging rawness followed by aching scabbiness. Ouch.
  18. But no, you won't blow up your bass amp by playing guitar through it. Whether it sounds any good is another matter entirely.
  19. I was a bit embarrassed at how many drummers I had never heard of, given that drummers are rather important to us bass players!
