  1. I'd like to join the headstock club - mine was through a Greenhouse during an outdoors gig, was very very uncle roger drunk.
  2. Absolutely, get well Chuck.
  3. +1 for the mono - quality build and it's got more pockets and spaces to hide your spare bits than you'll ever need ! I've still got a 5 year old Warwick double bag and to be fair is still pretty functional, but it did fall apart quickly. If it wasn't for gaffer tape...
  4. [quote name='soulfunkbass' timestamp='1318781376' post='1406119'] Hi PM'd you regarding the Jazzman.. If you still got it?? Cheers [/quote] PM'd ta !!!
  5. I had a bit of an eye-opener in Bristol, where I was advised in a store (due to lack of LH stock) to basically quit playing left handed and go righty. Tit.
  6. [quote name='josh3184' timestamp='1318271473' post='1399971'] I used to own this- Very heavy and has a massively chunky baseball-bat-esque neck that I couldn't deal with. But what a sound! Were it not for the ergonimics I'd probably still have it [/quote] ...and it does look damn cool !!!
  7. 'Mirror Image' sums it up. Obviously taking into account the aesthetic elements. It's nice to be different.
  8. [quote name='gusthebass' timestamp='1316894656' post='1384253']Can I ask how's the balance (of this "Fenderbird Bass")... and did you make the body yourself? As it'S Mahogany is it really heavy? And finally, where are you/the bass: I'll be in the midlands in the next couple of weeks.. Thanks, Angus.[/quote] Hi Angus, Bass weighs 8.5lb so it's no heavier than a std. p bass or stingray really, come to think of it I'm not 100% sure of the wood we used to build and shape the body as It's since been stained etc! Balance wise, due to the rh jazz neck there is neck dive - nothing major or out of the ordinary, you'd probably overcome this pretty quickly - think Gibson ! Bass is located near Chester. Cheers, Matthew
  9. [quote name='stringintheshade' timestamp='1316598802' post='1380070'] I posted about him in the bass guitars section. But it probably belongs here. It looked like he was playing an Overwater by Tanglewood classic J. Anyone confirm?[/quote] Little Dragon were fab, bassist was using an Industrial Radio Midi bass methinks !!!!
  10. Little Dragon, now want an industrial radio midi bass....lol
  11. Just an update: Fender bird bass £250 collected with decent hard shell case or £225 without ??!!! May be interested in trades along the Fretless line ? The Warwick Streamer LX5 and MM Bongo 4HH are both with Mark at Bass Direct, Warwick - if anyone wants to give them a spin !
  12. [quote name='throwoff' post='1370178' date='Sep 12 2011, 10:35 AM']I kind of want it but cant work out why, it really doesnt fit with anything I have ever done or plan to do. Maybe thats why I want it. And I kind of want it gold.... hmm.[/quote] Erm can't do gold, but can do £225 collected anyone ?!!!!
  13. [quote name='throwoff' post='1370000' date='Sep 11 2011, 11:31 PM']Can I ask, The Fenderbird thing? What is it made from? Where did bits come from?[/quote] I think I did a break down of the sourced parts somewhere within the Big Lefty Market Place ! All the hardware is quality stuff like hipshot, schaller, neck is mighty mite, pick ups Rickenbacker and the body is mahogany I think !!!
  14. Can't seem to love my Bongo. Mega versatile, stunning looks (even added matching Leds) but... ...just not feeling it
  15. More pics of the 3 basses I'm selling can be found under it's own thread: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=154197&st=0&gopid=1367906&#entry1367906"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;#entry1367906[/url] Ta!

  18. [quote name='wildus' post='1367061' date='Sep 8 2011, 10:00 PM']I owned a white fretless Jap Jazz for years [/quote] Lol. The one I owned (93-00 ?) was circa 1980s, filled-in fret lines, schaller bridge, someone had removed the serial no. off rear....have seen it on here and on ebay for sale !

  22. ...nevermind, I seem to recall my Eden Metro footswitch only worked properly on rare occasions.
  23. Just a quick heads-up - unless this has been mentioned before... Some kind person is sharing a DVD of a recent Public TV broadcast of (a seemingly full) GCS gig live in Lugano, Switzerland on dimeadozen.org (and possibly elsewhere). (I'm only 5 songs into this myself and there may be tuning issues - anyone ??!!!).
  24. Mother Earth - Neil Corcoran is a tasteful bassist !
