  1. Tee-totaller Silvia's facial expression is a picture at 28 seconds 🤣
  2. I bought some nice old school Optima flat strings from Luke and all was good
  3. £4500, if memory serves me correctly (yes, its only a couple of days but festive alcohol was consumed last night!)
  4. The 'Simple bass guitar tuner' app on my mobile phone is a life saver (not literally obvs)
  5. The shooting of the Deputy, however, remains unsolved
  6. Plugs. My amp sounds sh*te without one
  7. Great song by Sting
  8. Sold Derrey a bridge bezel for a Rick. Everything was tickety-boo! Cheers!
  9. Is the sunburst 73 P of interest to you @Reggaebass? https://www.atbguitars.com/store/product/1973-fender-precision-bass-1973pbass/
  10. Would also p/x (with money your way) against a lightweight early 70s Precision (1971-3) with rosewood neck. Yes, I know I just sold one 🙄
  11. One pickup version (bridge) but I bet it doesn't hang around https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Wal_MKII_4_Fretless.html
  12. Daphne blue I assume (gone a bit grey over time)? Nice but I reckon LPB beats it for bling
  13. "Roll up, roll up to Clarky's gear emporium!"
  14. Haha, long time (and I mean loooong) time no speak!!!! Yep, still a gear tart. And yep, still not very good at playing bass
  15. And when those blue snowflakes start fallin' That's when those blue memories start callin' You'll be doin' all right with your Christmas of white But I'll have a blue, blue, blue, (lake placid) blue Christmas
  16. They are passive. I had one and it was fabulous but, like the seller, moved away from short scale This gives an idea
  17. Voila: "Injection Molded ABS Plastic, plated in copper, nickel and real chrome, creates a stiff exoskeleton with a brilliant and durable finish." https://www.thetreblebezel.com/
  18. If you play a Rick you will know what these are. A drop in replacement for part of the bridge pickup assembly which allows you to (a) do away with the pretty but useless hand rest (b) do so without risk of your picking hand falling in to the sharp edged 'hole' surrounding the pickup and (c) while providing a neat built in thumb rest. I am only selling as I bought two, one with raised thumb rest, one with a thumb 'cove' (inset/hollow thumb rest). I prefer the latter. This was £46 new from Rickysounds, so £33 posted seems fair. PS, first 3 pics of the for sale item, pic number 4 is a stock photo to show how it looks in situ
  19. I knew immediately that (1) black P bass and (2) playing punk = @Lozz196 😀 Enjoy Lozz!!!!
  20. Greater love hath no man for a woman ... I have just sat through the first two episodes of the Sex in the City reboot. "And just like that" with Mrs C. This is not bass related but I felt the need to share my pain

      Update (because I know you are all desperately interested):  I was obliged to spend a chunk of my Friday evening watching episode 3. Thoroughly enjoyable .... in that it was a fantastic hour spent surfing the web on my mobile phone.

  21. Back up with trade option (AVRI 62 Precision) and lower bargain price (£1500). Sale much preferred as I do already have several other basses .... but it looks like trades are easier at this time of year In response to a PM, I have all the amps/cabs etc I need, so the only trade is for an AVRI P bass (I would contribute some extra cash if a Fullerton early 80s, alternatively its a straight trade for a good condition light post Fullerton AVRI) PS, swapped strings again (I am an inveterate tinkerer) and the bass is now wearing D'Addario 45-100 nickel rounds.
  22. Very nice, don't often see black/tort combo. Might be worth adding wright before someone asks
