  1. [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1437643377' post='2827741'] Plan my day? I'm watching him (online) go from delivery to delivery (he's on No 10 now) and tantalising has passed very close to me already...! [/quote] Do it properly; hide in a tree with binoculars You sad person...
  2. Yes it's a good system and at least lets you plan your day better
  3. You and drummer should slam his fingers in the door a few times
  4. I bought a new pickup and it came with perfect, film covered black pup covers. I don't want these so will sell on with the classic 50s pickup - pup has plenty of wire and is in perfect working order £20 posted to mainland (second class)
  5. It is, although not sure I'd pay that much
  6. [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1437389491' post='2825489'] The way I see it, it's small, it's not in a place where your hand would normally be when playing, it's on the underside so you won't see it when you're playing and neither will anyone else notice. Not worth the ballache to argue the toss with someone who doesn't deem it as important as you, however "right" you may be on a logical level. I'd probably be mildly irritated, resolve to do something about it then never get round to it as if the rest of the bass is sound then I'd be too busy playing/enjoying it to worry about something as minor as that little flaw. So, I'm in the "let it go" camp. [/quote] Yes don't let it hold you back anymore ...
  7. [quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1437389053' post='2825481'] That probably is "new" condition, as that looks like a manufacturing blemish rather than something that happened to the bass after it left the factory. [/quote] Yep
  8. Doubt the seller noticed in all honesty
  9. [quote name='Weststarx' timestamp='1436962407' post='2822333'] .... (Starts running faster!) [/quote] Total of people persuaded onto dance floor by a guitar line : 3(ever) Total of people persuaded onto dance floor by a bass line : 73.8million Go figure
  10. [quote name='Weststarx' timestamp='1436862352' post='2821392'] Playing guitar is 10x cooler anyway... (Starts running) [/quote] Can someone please delete his account ? I don't see why we should stand for people posting utter tripe on this forum
  11. Zero sense more like
  12. You can use a regular 3/16 Allen key but the fender tool is waisted allowing you to turn the nut at an angle
  13. I'd pick U2 as it's not too taxing and there would be squillions of piles of cash to struggle along with
  14. I've got an sr16 and I find programming it a lot of pain (i'm actually a programmer by day) I'd recommend hydrogen
  15. [quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1436269481' post='2816536'] Thanks for this, just checked it on Amazon and it's ideal. I'm having that! [/quote] I have it, it's very worthwhile
  16. Plenty good stuff there thanks
  17. Not my cup of tea but quite stylish in my humble opinion
  18. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1435935438' post='2813808'] Looking at the more recent catalogues on Tokai Register, your bass is very similar (or, identical as far as I can see!) to the APB32 model which appears in catalogues between 1995 & 2000: Regarding the date, I've read that Tokai's Fender clones don't use date-decodable S/Ns, although this doesn't seem very likely to me. I'm not really familiar enough with Tokais to have educated opinion on country of manufacture - but my MIJ Talbo reissue (from 2000-ish) doesn't state a country of manufacture anywhere, so the same may be the case for the Fender copies. So, mid/late 90s APB32, from where I'm sitting. Unless anyone else knows different... Jon. [/quote] I had a fender clone with a date decode able sn. Made in 1990 so I disagrer
  19. Id say relatively recent as the headstock isn't very fender All the older jap ones I saw were very fender
  20. Fender acoustics strings are cheap and work well Edit : phosphor bronze not steel
  21. I asked about amps by phone for an open mic night and there was a very sharp intake of breath (and the sound of a rope being tied to a tree)
  22. [quote name='urbanx' timestamp='1435157539' post='2806048'] I would have gone with: "If you want my come back, you'll have to scrape it off your mums teeth first" [/quote] It's a female heckler, I thought ?
