  1. Phil sold me a Hercules wall hanger. Arrived quickly, great price, great hanger, great chap. Thanks Phil! Tim
  2. Fab comms, packaging and item from John. Top man: many thanks! Cheers, Tim
  3. Hi. Quick question: can the Powerblock connect direct to mixer/PA via XLR with no speaker load? Cheers, Tim
  4. Sold my Fiesta Red CV Precision (and a few other bits) to Geoff having seen his ‘wanted’ ad. Great comms, lovely chap, and what a view from his road!
  5. What he said. And put the saddles in a tub with a bunch of nails and give them a good shake for a few minutes...
  6. Many thanks for the kind words gents. It's solid as a rock and sounds really decent thanks to the Tonerider/Ki0gon combo And the headstock turned out far better than I expected, although as I say the finish isn't exactly mirror flat!! I hope it sells in one piece: it's a really decent budget bass, if you can live with with one or two minor cosmetic issues. Having just acquired a mint 2010 Fiesta Red 60s CV P there's a lot to be said for a bass having a spot of 'patina': I'm scared to breathe on it in case it picks up a ding!
  7. ZVEX Seek Trem boutique tremolo pedal. Bright, shiny and near-immaculate save for Velcro, with Cusack tap tempo mod. Really clever device: effectively works as a tremolo or turns bass/guitar into an analog sequencer, sound-wise at least! Read online reviews for a better description, but suffice to say it does a very authentic ‘How Soon Is Now’! Reason for sale: slimming down my guitar board to ‘the basics’! Price includes insured UK shipping, add £10 for Europe.
  8. SOLD PENDING... Parting out options removed: too good to split! Next up on the block in my attempts to rationalise/downsize is my Squier/Tonerider/Kiogon 'bitsa'. It comprises: A Squier Affinity body A Squier Vintage Modified neck A Tonerider pickup A Kiogon circuit A BBOT bridge from a Squier VM Jazz A decent quality BWB scratchplate I've undertaken a few items of 'home relic-ing', as follows: Headstock tinted. Always thought the VM heads look a little anaemic, though of course that's a matter of taste. Personally much more happy with the look now, though it's a little rough to the touch. Fret markers darkened. Now returned to standard. Bridge chrome dulled. A few marks, knocks and dings, the worst of which are on the back and show best using flash photography. Also a couple of lacquer cracks at the neck pocket, but these were already present when I got the neck and body as the basis for this project a couple of years back and haven't moved since. Flash makes these look worse than they are though, but would rather be upfront about it. Plenty of ‘swirlies’ too but all adds to the ‘charm’! Any questions, let me know. Price includes UK postage, Europe add a tenner.
