    This reminds me of my first 'real' bass (after a fireglow Hondo II Ricky copy) which was an 8-string natural version of this.....I played mine with only 4 strings for a few years.... and was a little neck heavy - not surprising....hey-ho the things you do in your teens

    I was lucky to purchase an original Redhead combo in 1996 and paired it with various 2 x10s (Peavey then a SWR) fantastic sound so useable regardless of bass type/quality or active/passive bass - wonderful price too - someone's gonna be lucky

    If I was in need of a back up to mine I'd be all over this and it would be mine by now.....but they are SO well made that although i'm tempted the funds would be better spent elsewhere

    REALLY love mine - great for 4/5 string electric, upright/KK and EUB

    The bigger picture examples are toenail clippers ….but will still work fine …...get on Amazon and buy a set for £2.99 in a leather pouch,,,,stick them in your car of guitar bag and you'll be fine

    I love mine - a good price too

    still use mine - great on a KK bass baby or Eminence EUB also

    Yes Staggering on - that's where I ordered mine from.....($50.00 USD - yes, but obviously depends on the exchange rate) - the foam on mine is a bit pitted, its black and have played it on all 3 of my basses - the acid test comes in a performance or recording neither which I have done recently

    They are 50 quid plus duty and shipping = about 80.00 quid in all - they do alter the tone its just if you like it or not...I have persued at home and a few rehearsals on my playing on my Eminence and KK Bass baby and like the affect a lot...

    the type of writing I want to do on a chord chart is - chord subs, what key a piece is in (charts can change - lots), words like scale choices and general notes to myself - I understand that this can be done with an I-pen (it's about 100 quid) its just finding the correct programme and a tutorial on how to use it

    Hi Stew, Thanks for your reply - i'll check Musescore out. I heard someone sometime ago talk using an apple I-pen and another programme, where you dump the chord chart into it and can annotate it using the pen on the screen, but i'm stumped as to what to do next . I don't have a problem with notation only the technology, ipen and using a programe

    Like the drum shield - more drummers/bands should use them = it'll save everyones hearing in the long run

    I'm at a stage where I need to write some notes for myself on ireal charts and wondered if anyone could shed any light on how I would go about it - thanks

    I have just purchased a secondhand copy of Jon Liebman's Blues Bass - The Complete Method (part of the Bass Builders series). Although it was advertised with the CD - it didn't arrive with it (long story wont bore you). Rather than send it back I was wondering if anyone had a copy they could burn off for me - happy to pay for services (CD, postage, time etc) - thanks for reading- Pete

    I bought mine second hand from Bass Direct about 5 years ago and love it - it was almost brand new. It has a different sound to my 90s Classic and V4B heads - but IMHO a better tone. For me I am coming to the point where I will sell my Classic and use this one when a valve head is needed.

    I think the Hal Leonard Bass Builders are an excellent resource covering lots of different aspects of Bass Playing from Bass Fitness exercises upwards via Pentatonics, Fingerboard Harmony and different styles - praise to Ed Friedland, Jon Liebman and Gary Willis

    lol - and now you're tempting me even more - good on you - I pulled my back over the weekend and thankfully the chiropractors are open - i'm going again tomorrow (Wednesday) and hopefully my driving skills will be better by the weekend. If its still here then i'll contact you with view to driving over

    Ummmmm….very, very tempted...….

    I have the same bag - (i was so impressed I ordered another, a very dark brown one), both direct from Harvest in Germany = they'll out live me
  22. Petey
    Shame its not the 'briefcase' model (mains & battery powered) as the money would be winging its way towards you as you read this - great preamps

    Thanks for your comments guys. A friend of mine (recently deceased) had a '64 strat that the same thing happened to him. He purchased a replacement (same material) from a guy over in Canada some years ago, but I think that he has had to stop trading reasons - as mention above....and he had the luthier screw his original onto a piece of wood to stop shrinkage - again as mentioned above. So, Spitfire seems the place to go - thanks again for your help and i'll contact them later this week Pete x

    I have a 1961 P-bass and the original scratch plate is doing the usual shrink and crack thing that they do. I was wondering if anyone knew of a company that offers a replacement fit and made from the same material - thanks x

    I've had one of these for about 12 years and they are SO lovely to play
