Now why'd I no think of that. Cheers Doc J I'll try again [attachment=207898:Resolite 2.jpg]

What does this mean ? New Peavey prototype day !! Start of the month I got my second copy of Peavey guitars and the Resolite gets a mention but it was never put into production. Two weeks later lo and behold one comes up for auction.Now the book says 4 were built and 2 came to Europe,according to folks on various Peavey groups only 2 have been spotted. A red one sporting a hipshot and a black one in the UK.This is the UK one. It's been a good year and I'm on track to own one of every Peavey model so I bid and won,actually given the highish price and general Peavey apathy I was the only bidder.Judging by the damage to the case this one's lucky to still be here.So that's me the proud owner now. Ultra light at 7lb,PJ hollowed chamber,strange for a Peavey 2+2 headstock,volume,blend,tone. I must admit to some second thoughts as another £100 odds would nearly see a USA Cirrus or possibly a Sarzo but it's here now and a worthy addition to the Peavey clan.Only thing I can think of as to why it never made production cause it's a decent wee bass is proposed selling price and production cost didn't tally. It's murder to photograph but here it is [attachment=207896:Resolite.jpg]

Perfect bass for me 2015 is the Super-P from Retrovibe. Split P,MM and with the mini switch option SC bridge. Oh and it has a torty scratchplate

You assumed right. I worded the reply badly.

The jack output on mine has high z & low z outputs but whether they're wired that way inside I couldn't say.It's a B-30 BK. The bass uke preamps definitely have both.

He certainly is a fine player,can't remember what I was looking for but when I saw the site thought " yeah bookmark that one " Glad it was of interest. And you're right ,a smile wouldn't hurt him

Martin Bashir plays bass, according to wiki he's got an album called Bass Lion. He also interviewed Victor Conte and Prince William's mam so it's a " plate of shrimp " deal.

Don't know if it's of much use,don't know any gospel to compare it with, but a while back I stumbled across this site. http://www.gospelbasslines.com/

Bought a pedal from Paul. Dead easy purchase,quick delivery and well packed. Top Man

@Naetharu It was some Japanese semi hollow with 3 rusty strings,the controls were mounted on a plywood plate nailed to the body (big hole where they were originally) pickup was held in by nails too.The tuner pegs were missing so I used pliers to tune it. For £1 it was a bargain. Played it through the music centre. Downgraded to the tulip shaped Kay, was a mistake that

Forgot to add my 1st bass cost me £1,that might have helped.

Same situation as Naetharu,everybody was taking up guitar. Bass fitted my level of commitment

A lot of my pals were into metal and fellas like Pete Way and Jimmy Bain were Godsends.As were the fellas in Anti-Nowhere League,Angelic Upstarts and Exploited. Just listening to a tune a few times and going " Aye I can play that " was great. Wouldn't say it stretched me much as a player,but that was never the plan. Funny I looked up Neil Murray yesterday just to see what he was up to,he's doing alright it seems.

I've wondered that myself uncle psychosis,getting binned by TB hasn't changed him.

I'll second wishing Severin a speedy recovery.

That is pretty crappy looking. Should have spent more time on the sculpting, gargoyle looks cartoonish. Was it inspired by Doom 95 ?

If they happen to be singers as well as bass players then they're in with a shout but household names for bass,not much of a chance. More likely " Oh thats ____" The fella from Duran Duran The fella from Tears For Fears The guy from Level 42

Toying with the idea of a YOB but then I spoke to a guy in Holland about a Stacatto.

Lots of folks would advise getting a really good setup done on a £200 bass too.

Bloody hell Mark,that's a nightmare Do you know anybody on here that could help ?

Peavey Fury but it's got to be the later ones. Early models with the slanted pickup are wider,mine measures 43.7mm. The two later Furys I have are 38.3mm and 38.6mm . Criminally under-priced too.

Thanks Jon. Past him the link
