  1. [quote name='Pestie' timestamp='1372700841' post='2128808'] Hello Thunderbird my friend. If all T'birds are as good as yours you could just be right. I hope your arm is better and you are giving it some stick at the low end. Take care. Mike(Pestie) [/quote] Hi mate no arm and hand no better I have played the bass about 3 times since we met up I it gave me alot of stick grrr hope your well my friend ( and sorry for the thread hijack GLWTS )
  2. [size=3]Get a Thunderbird Mr Pestie you know ya wanna mate [/size]
  3. I set them both at about 12 oclock I find that good for me its hard to try and describe the tone as everyone has different ideas on it but I would say I get a nice warm punchy rock sound with the settings I use mine also has an upgraded seymour SB1 pickup but I just love this bass I have tried a lot of other basses similair to this and they don't come close to the G+L for me maybe I am biased but all I know is it is just such a joy to play and sounds great looks pretty good too
  4. Hi mates I am thinking of getting something like a Peavey Milestone for a little project I want something in a jazz type formation , now I am thinking the Peavey is right for the job as you can pick up a decent one for around 50 quid I also have seen a few Yamahas and Ibanez basses with a jazz type formation. I am thinking of upgrading the pickups and maybe a little respray new strings nothing to major so you guys got any suggestions on what I should be looking for? I have set myself a budget of 50 quid for the bass but parts etc I need will be bought as and when I have funds. Just wanted to add I am not looking for any "no name basses" Thanks in advance
  5. I have an SB-2 its the mutts lovely sound lovely feel nice weight but I think I am much to far from you to try it but it is a fantastic bass I love it
  6. [size=4]Well the title says it all really sorry if this has been done before I did search for a thread on this but could not find one so I started a new one.[/size]I do most of my Bass shopping online mainly for the reason that there is not really any good music shops near where I live and I cant drive at the moment so online shopping is great for me as I can have the stuff delivered the only real drawback is you cant really try stuff, So I just wondered if you guys shopped online for Bass stuff or use your local music shops? when buying large items such as basses and amps I always look in the for sale area here as a starting point but for smaller items such as strings, straps etc etc I tend to use ebay Amazon and strings direct I have just started using Thomann also for a few purchases and find them pretty good. looking forward to your answers on this one guys
  7. For me I think it has to be. James Lomenzo - White lion/Megadeth Tom araya - Slayer Gene simmons - Kiss
  8. I use my Zoom B1 with headphones and I get the added bonus of lots of funky sounds to play with they are also fairly cheap second hand
  9. Think Mr cloudburst and Mr Cetera are the guys who will know about these
  10. Just bought a Digitech pedal from Mark all I can say is what a fantastic Basschatter all was as described and delivery was very fast . Mark has also helped me out with another purchase I will be making from him next week he is really polite helpful and accommodating a huge thumbs up from me cant get any better than this just perfect. Thanks Mark
  11. Might be a Fender neck stuck on a dodgy body there's been lots of them on ebay recently but most likely a sticker on a scrap bass
  12. [quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1372420580' post='2125526'] I'd say you'd get one off here for a fair bit less.. [/quote] Agreed that is too much for the condition its in
