  1. For those interested I would be willing to offer this at £150 + shipping with the ORIGINAL pickups (not the Quarterpounders)
  2. [quote name='LiamPodmore' timestamp='1394556524' post='2392653'] What software are you recording with? You shouldn't be having any problems whatsoever getting a good tone with a good quality interface like that Presonus. Liam [/quote] This! The only other thing I could suggest would be to try something like a BDI21 for a bit of extra tone shaping before the interface. EDIT: ignore me, just seen that you've already tried a pod.
  3. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1394524475' post='2392109'] I've shipped a good number of basses with Collectplus.co.uk It's convenient - drop off at a local shop/garage, and get cover for up to £300 all for about £12.50. You just have to ignore their published size restrictions, they take it anyway and I've not had a problem with at least 6 I've sent. [/quote] That's good to know - I'll definitely take a look!
  4. [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1394481014' post='2391835'] This is from The Bass Doc's value range. Superb again Howard, cheers boss.

Looks great!
  5. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1394310740' post='2390245'] I had the white one and that was brilliant evenwith std pickups [/quote] Thanks Geek! To add, I can ship at cost, which looks to be between £20-£25 with the appropriate level of insurance.
  6. Congratulations, and a definite tip of the cap to them, sounds like they really pulled it out if the bag for you. Also, pictures please
  7. GAK has always been my first port of call for new gear. Now I'm in the South I should really go and visit the actually shop
  8. Thanks Tom! It is a brilliant bass, and the only reason it's going is because I can't justify having three Precisions
  9. I bought Mike's Mexican Precision from him today, he's a top chap and you can buy with confidence. Thanks Mike!
  10. For sale is my 6 month old Squier VM Precision in Amber. I'm sticking strictly to my one in one out policy, so it has to go. Condition is immaculate aside from a couple of marks on the pickup cover and the scratchplate. I will photograph these for you. It currently has a SD Quarterpounder installed which comes included with the price (a few marks on the pickup cover from the previous owner), but I do have the original Duncan Designed pickup if you wanted to swap back and we could discuss an appropriate discount for that. I'm located in East Dulwich in SE London, but am between West London (Paddington) and Hertfordshire during the week so could arrange to meet near there too. I'm looking for £200 including the Quarterpounder - I paid £275 for the bass alone 6 months ago. Edit: it has also a brand new set of Rotosound strings on it in the last week. Full Squier specs are available here: http://www.fender.com/squier/series/vintage-modified/vintage-modified-precision-bass-maple-fingerboard-amber/ Added picture of the mark on the pickup cover.
  11. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1394271330' post='2389691'] I've just been watching this and now I've got GAS for a fretless ray. I'm not sure I even know why!! Damn you Basschat! [/quote] 'Tis the nature of our disease!
  12. Howard has just made me two pickguards for my Deluxe Precision, a 4 ply tort and a 3 ply white one. Both are brilliant, the tort is honestly STUNNING. My bass has never looked better. Highly recommended.
  13. Here's some more of Howard's phenomenal handy work in the flesh (apologies for the sideways picture) my bass has honestly never looked better.
  14. Good work, although it's only half a job without pictures!
  15. It's looking good Anthony! When you re-finish it are you going for a solid white, or a nitro type finish with a bit of grain showing through?
  16. [quote name='Phil Starr' timestamp='1393756826' post='2383963'] If you are using a 100W+ amp in a rehearsal the usual reason for not hearing is that you are standing too close to your amp and it is pointing at your ankles not your ears. Tipping it back and pointing it at your ears will help a lot. Hope this helps [/quote] This would be the first thing to do - repositioning the amp and adjusting to account for the directional nature of most bass speakers could be a much cheaper (albeit short term) fix.
