  1. Pretty sure they’re these: https://g-gotoh.com/product/fb30/?lang=en
  2. Now updated - I hadn’t realised the tuners were on the post…that was my pt 2 😂
  3. Various bits for sale, price includes UK postage. 2. Duncan design jazz pick ups - Sire covers now removed - comes with standard blank pickup covers , shortish cables £15 I Do also have some Sire V7 (mk2) pickups that sound great - £35 SOLD Rick truss cover, non original SOLD 6. Maida Vale Low Rider jazz pickups. Odd balls yet full of balls - but really great sounding pickups. They’re double coiled, so a coil underneath-you’ll need a deep route in your jazz body, that said though I had them in a Squier body. Warm, vintage sounds and the coils can be split for more tonal options. The outer insulation has come off one off of pickups but it still works perfectly, see below pic £40 8. Wilkinson tuners, just the tuners - no ferrules but I think I have screws. £22
  4. Had this neck on a parts build but have recently replaced with a maple neck which I prefer. Purchased locally I have no idea of it’s heritage-it has a few war wounds to the headstock face - looks like tuner screw holes have come through. It also has two bizarre holes, assume a string retainer of some sort. No string retainer now as used on the new neck. Was fitted to a Fender body so usual dimensions. Tuners are cheap and cheerful and function fine. Truss rod is at the heal end and turns nicely. Nut has disappeared so a new one maybe required if I cannot find it. The Fender decal was already on it and is done excellently but obviously this is only a replica. Just noticed a black pen mark the back of neck - should easily run off. £25 collected from Plymouth or £32 posted.
  5. Let me know if you want to sell the detuner - I was planning to get one at some point.
  6. Ha, great mods. I did the decal thing too as I couldn’t stand the original, but felt fearful to expose it until now. I did look at adding a tint to the neck which went a horrible orange so painfully removed most of it. I’ve since fitted a Dimarzio pickup to the neck and a Aguilar to the bridge which are better than the stock, although thought the stock weren’t too bad. I have the tone mod which is very useful. I got a dodgy tort guard from China which needed a little fettling, added a different string retainer similar to the real Sadowsky and added some not so well placed stick on blocks. It’s a bit of a rat bass now but I like it, especially as it’s under 8lbs in weight!

  8. The Blackstar Unity 700 is a great versatile amp - I’ve got one that I’ve had from new but thinking of selling as I seem to have accrued 6 amps now - recently bought an old Eden so something has to go, so thinking this and a TC BH550 for the chop. Have to say though the Blackstar is a brilliant piece of kit, lovely clean tones amongst the heavier ones too.
  9. Which de tuner model did you use?
  10. Agree with the BF challenge having tried both, I kept the Genz. In my view I think these are one of the best 2x12’s ever built. Absolute bargain right here.
  11. I picked up a WT550 the other day for nostalgia of it being one of my favourite amps I’d previously owned. The difference with Class D is like night and day. Whoever buys this rig is going to have immense tone. The WT550 blows my Markbass out the water….now I know what ‘heft’ is 😂 GLWTS
  12. I think it’s a probably a Stingray thing. I’ve had close to a dozen stingrays over the years and had this issue on 2 or 3 of them. Was never a big issue but a bit of an oddity compared to other basses that never suffered.
  13. Recently bought some DR strings off Ben, i believe his fastest sale on here? Came on the Marketplace looking for some strings, ideally DR's and voila they popped up and i swooped in -makes a change as i always miss such things! Ben's a top chap, sent quickly too - all good here
  14. I got lucky - under 8lbs! Thanks GuitarGuitar - fast delivery and a decent bass too…back of the net 😁
  15. Cheers all - I pulled the trigger earlier today on one of those Sadowsky express budget ones. Typically above my budget so hoping it turns out ok and isn’t reminiscent of their first dodgy batch.
