  2. Last call - anyone thinking of coming along?
  3. Met Mrs C in 1987, so nearly up to 26 years. I play bass, she cooks sea bass, maybe there's our common bond?
  4. FYI, ATS gear is available through Phil Nixon's fantastic BassGear outlet,in Twyford just west of London http://www.bassgear.co.uk/product-category/bass-amps-and-cabs/ats/ I bet BCer Barrie (molan), who helps out st BassGear, will be along in a moment to add his thoughts on ATS
  5. Surely you mean how do I find time to present a book club on TV with Richard Madely? [attachment=135792:461292072.jpg]
  6. Fine by me. Small donation to the birthday fund required only * [size=2]* £1900[/size]
  7. [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1369836879' post='2093274'] Yes, I want my money back [/quote] Me too
  8. Admit it Dave, you were once the bass player for the Wombles
  9. PS, Chris, there was a time when I not only played a Warwick Thumb, but it had (gasp) 5 strings too .... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uI3OsjAAIc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uI3OsjAAIc[/url] A far cry from All The Queens Ravens!
  10. Are you re-considering the other 738 deals we have already done, Chris?
  11. It was all a hollow empty sham Chris
  12. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1369827901' post='2093119'] Banish it from your mind Clarky.................... [/quote] Worry not, Lozz. I am slimming down my collection, not adding to it. Think of it as mid-life crisis moment (the big 5-0 approaches in July, eeek). By tonight I shall happily be playing my Jazz bass again
  13. Listen, don't mention the war(wick)! I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it all right.
  14. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1369818171' post='2092966'] That's complete rubbish, and totally unfair. To me, it looks like a puddle of congealed fat with bacon bits in it. [/quote] Said the man that recently visited a Warwick factory and considered buying one
  15. [quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1369813747' post='2092910'] You're not Clarky. Where is he?? What have you done with him?? [/quote] Probably delirium caused by sleep deficiency
  16. As a fender fan boy and avowed hater of coffee table fancy wooden tops I should hate this bass. But I don't. I really think its a great looking piece. On sale at BassDirect for £1500 if anyone's interested (its a Warwick Thumb 'Dirty Blonde' - perhaps the name is what's hooking me!) Not buying it but thought I'd post up in case anyone else fancies a pop [attachment=135764:Front.jpg]
  17. Bump for any Sarf Lundunners
  18. I have had second thoughts about selling my '71 fretless (thanks Beedster!) and so I am putting this up FS instead. This being a 1990/1 CIJ hollow bodied A/E Precision fretless. It has a Cafe Walter preamp and a piezo and 'normal' P pickup which can be blended. As is typical for this model (according to Talkbass) the G piezo output is slighly weaker than the E/A/D (apparently as the bridge pressure is lower on the G piezo [there is less tension from the thinner G string than the thicker E/A/D]); it can be remedied by getting a luthier to split the bridge saddle apparently - a fix which is largely invisible - but I was happy blending the two pickups so that the lower piezo output is neutralised by the electric pickup). Whatever, it sounds great live (I used it at our Finsbury gig a couple of weeks back and BCer wwcringe aka Tom commented on it sounding DB-like). For an early 90s bass it's in great nick with just a couple of minor dings. Weighs under 8 pounds The price is what I paid only a couple of months back on BC. Sorry no trades.. These are stock pics of an identical bass as its too dark to take a photo now [url="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ae+precision+fretless&safe=off&client=safari&hl=en-gb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=OsOjUemrB8Sh0QWM94HQCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=768&bih=928#biv=i%7C10%3Bd%7C8aFr5sByvIvnvM%3A"]https://www.google.c...Fr5sByvIvnvM%3A[/url] [url="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ae+precision+fretless&safe=off&client=safari&hl=en-gb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=OsOjUemrB8Sh0QWM94HQCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=768&bih=928#biv=i%7C7%3Bd%7C2BMHeE7n3XpN9M%3A"]https://www.google.c...MHeE7n3XpN9M%3A[/url]
  19. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1369680012' post='2091589'] Be warned -There will be an additional charge for anybody wearing an Arsenal shirt!!! [/quote] Do you get free lasagna if wearing a Sp*rs shirt?
  20. Looking good for me coming along. I will bring my BigE 4x5 cab, EA Micro head (thats an amp, not a description of me) and a Fender or two (63P, 75J and/or 71 fretless)
  21. The user guide is very self explanatory Pete. In practice all you will need to adjust is the EQ sliders (takes a split second) and - if feedback issues - the phase control. http://www.fishman.com/files/pro_eq_platinum_bass_user_guide.pdf
  22. very nice Nick! I am cutting down my collection too. A P, a J and (for my current band as I am not 100% comfortable with it) a fretless
  23. Sorry OP, very poor quality shots, too much reflection
  24. I've had both. The 3 series has a more sturdy metal case (2 series is plastic) and a new algorithm on cutting off low frequencies which has a set level and a variable level. TBH, I can't hear the difference, I prefer the 3 series as its less likely to break if it drops on the floor. But that said I've never dropped it on the floor! Horses for courses, both are good
