    Hmmm,thanks for this. Si. I haven't received an email reply and by the looks of your post, it might be ages before I actually got my hands on a Tarkin pedal. Think I will investigate the Fuzzrocious instead Edit: I ordered the purple one at Joes Pedals you linked to 😀

    As an update, I have dropped an email to Cog regarding availability and build time of a Tarkin fuzz. I recall reading on BC questions over whether they were continuing in business but their website looks active so hopefully I will get a reply

    On hold, pending a viewing early next week

    Thats super helpful thanks Si. I wouldn't trust myself with a soldering iron (and don't know anyone else who could do it) so will work my way through researching links on each of the pre-made pedals you suggested. Cheers!

    Hi all, I use a Big Muff Nano pedal for 2 or 3 songs in my band's live set. With my Mustang bass its fine but with my Rick 4001 the hum is really intrusive and noisy. I have read that Big Muffs don't always interact well with single coil pickups, which could explain it. Questions I have are: 1. Am I right in thinking its the interaction with single coil pickups (the Mustang with hum cancelling P type pickup acts as the 'control arm' of the experiment, proving its not connections, patch leads or faulty pedal)? Do other BCers have this experience? 2. If so, is there a Big Muff Nano alternative which isn't hellish expensive that doesn't have this issue? Thanks in advance, Clarky

    Yep. The mediums are red at both ends, the solos are yellow at the top. This is a useful string identifier from Gollihur, for future reference: https://gollihurmusic.com/string-identification-chart/

    Classic colour scheme, noticeably lighter than an average Jazz and plays beautifully. Gwaaann!

    My goth/post-punk band The InSect are headlining an evening in Southend on Friday, in case anyone is in the area and fancies a listen.

    Any BCers in/around Southend fancy some live goth/post-punk music action on Friday? My band, The InSect, is headlining. Details below

      Not really my wheelhouse Clarky, but if I wasn't already gigging I'd struggle down the road to see ya.

    Stunning short scale bass from one of the hottest luthiers around. Was made as a one-off special with Aguilar to highlight the Aguilar ceramic P pickup. Capri orange nitro finish with racing stripes. Very light (weighs roughly 7.0 pounds) and in vgc. Only selling to defray cost of a vintage Mustang bass I have acquired which performs the same role (so no trades). Comes with fab Serek padded gig bag. To buy new would be about $3200 and - allowing for post and import duty - would mean about the same figure in pounds. So, at my reduced price of £2200, mine saves about a third and - as stated - is in vgc. Collect SW London or post at cost, as agreed with buyer. Various pics below (mine and Serek website) and a live video of it in action.

    Bought a lovely '73 Mustang bass from Chris. As with my multiple previous feedback comments, always a pleasure to do business with!

    £25 discount (£875) if I keep the TI flats and swap for the nickel rounds that were on the bass when it came from BassDirect (not sure what brand, yellow silks?)

    Need to fund an incoming bass 🙄 .... hence final price drop to a bargain £900 including TI flat strings. If postage needed, will be at cost and as agreed with buyer

    Thanks Chris, I will need to do some sums but WANT! My left forefinger is still pretty b*ggered from the accident but a bit better, thanks, and with physio I can at least play a bass in my usual agricultural style! Fretting in the lower positions is trickier, as I discovered when I bought a P bass and a J bass not so long ago, thinking I was on the mend - hence I think in the interests of expediency and life being too short, I am going back to mainly focus on short scale basses (plus my vintage Ric as it looks cool).
