  4. I bought these on eBay for my 51P but they arrived in the mail just as I decided to sell the bass. Cost me £21 including post from US (can't get them in UK, leastways I couldn't find them). £20 posted anyone? Here's the ebay link [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170553916858&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT[/url]

  6. How doo and welcome to BassChat! There's quite a few of us Londoners on the site and there's a BassBash on 27th in Guildford you might want to jump on the Honda and get along to. Meet a load of us and ogle some nice gear (and play it if you ask nicely!)
  7. [quote name='halfmanhalfdrum' post='1014426' date='Nov 6 2010, 04:13 PM']Interested in the head. Where are you based?[/quote] Its says on his sig "From: Pinner", which is in Essex I think
  8. After an embarrassing amount of buying and selling I have finally worked out what I want and need. Between these three basses I have passive retro/motown thump through to bright-sounding modern rock covered. 1. A lovely flatwound-wearing Fender Precision (in this case a 2005 CS Pino Palladino model which I have long coveted and recently acquired from BC'er Legion). Yes, Beedster, I have moved on my 73P back to original owner Chris Kelly so you will never speak to me again! 2. A nice maple-necked Fender Jazz [i]without [/i] binding/blocks and heavily lacquered neck (which I just don't like, as I discovered when I went down the vintage route). I now have a nice oly white 2009 MIA one (which I was the original owner of, before I sold it on a vintage quest, but have managed to buy back) 3. Ahem, sold it! Replaced with fretless Jazz which can be seen a few posts down Anyway, enough guff, here's the porn pics: [attachment=63161:DSCF2204.JPG][attachment=63163:DSCF2207.JPG][attachment=63165:DSCF2209.JPG] [attachment=63160:DSCF2205.JPG][attachment=63162:DSCF2206.JPG][attachment=63168:DSCF2213.JPG]

  10. [quote name='Schnozzalee' post='1014164' date='Nov 6 2010, 12:30 PM']Haha! I didn't notice that either, thought it was a great bargain[/quote] Hey Schnozz, I recommend you place a bet on Spain to win the 2010 World Cup
  11. I bought this only a few weeks ago from Grand Wazoo who keeps his basses in minty condition. I got it thinking it might be useful in my retro band Rattlin Bone in which I play DB. In the event, although it was useful for our first rehearsal (when I had just suffered a broken hand and couldn't use the DB) I am recovering and I cannot really see me using it (I will be using DB only for Rattlin Bone from now on and I have my Fender Pino for rocking out). Plus I am thinking of upgrading my EUB from an Aria to an Eminence and so the cash would be useful! Its a 2009 (I think) 2TS Crafted in Japan '51 Precision reissue (this range has been discontinued), which GW modded by adding a custom Jason Lollar pickup (higher output than the stock 51P pickup). I paid £450 for it, and have since modded it by adding Fender chrome covers (around £25), an ebony finger rest (£9), chunky LaBella black nylon flatwound strings (50-110 IIRC; £25). I have also bought an electrosocket jack socket replacement (£12) which I haven't got around to installing as my still-healing left hand has precluded using a soldering iron (50s Ps and Telecasters have a habit of losing the jack socket and this is the standard replacement and does not interfere with the looks at all). All-in its cost me just over £520. It weighs 9.8 pounds so its certainly not a lightweight but it hardly qualifies as a heavyweight (my Alembic weighs 11 pounds by comparison). Comes in a padded Fender gig bag. Please note: that I slightly damaged the finish on this bass when I removed the covers for a potential buyer (see fifth post below with picture) as the screws coming out flaked some of the varnish . For this reason I have cut the asking price to £460 (from £499) posted 48-hour service or £450 (was £490) collected (from central London).

  13. If he could read, Chris Squier surely wouldn't have mis-spelled his surname
  14. Amazing to think he played keyboards for Barclay James Harvest in the 70s. He looks so young still
  15. [quote name='thunderbird13' post='1011932' date='Nov 4 2010, 12:26 PM']sounds like you and the drummer should split and try to find another guitarist who isnt an idiot ( might take a bit of time though )[/quote] +1 Once resentment sets in, its difficult to shake off and the fun of being in the band will never be the same
  16. Have to say, love the retro look of these

    If this is still available in 17 years, I will definitely have it
  23. Weren't the cutaways popular with rockabilly slappers? So may be it allows you to slap higher up the board rather than change to thumb position ?
