Dan Dare

1/10. But then I am 90% water.

Finally finished the project bass. Squier P body, Warmoth neck, Bill Lawrence p/u I bought in the 1980s and never got around to using, Gotoh bridge. Looks and sounds good. Was about to order the inevitable Fender decal for the headstock when a little voice told me not to be so sad. So looking for ideas. Hotpoint appeals (you can get their decals). Any other suggestions?

God bless him. Sid Page was some fiddler. RIP Dan.

Dangerous shop, that. Too easy to spend money there.

As you've obviously used (and paid for) pro level kit in the past, you ought to have a look at the AER combos. The 1x10 costs a grand, but is a bit special. Have a look at Ed Friedland's review on YouTube.

A triumph of style over substance. Her intonation is pretty doubtful, too

Aluminium camera case from Argos - takes all my mics, leads, etc. Strong and cheap.

That's helpful of Barnes & Mullins to suggest you buy a complete set of pickups when all you need is a plastic cover. Really good customer service, eh? I'd try filing out the pole piece holes on the generic one you've got. Would be better than nothing. Or perhaps a personal email to the CEO of Aguilar, saying how much you like his products, etc?

I have a HK VX1200 power amp that runs into 2 ohms.

All Dano's are. It's mdf essentially.

Jack's just made me a p/g. Excellent and quick turnaround. Use them with confidence.

Good luck with the recovery. Hope the Harley is fixable. Pushbikes are my thing - someone opened a car door on me a couple of years back and I went over the top of it and smashed up my right hand. Took a while, but its good as new now.

Hi All. Building a P Bass and intend to use an old Bill Lawrence EB60 pickup I bought in the 1980s and never used (quick off the mark, ain't I?). Lost the wiring diagram ages ago. It has 3 wires - red, soldered to the back plates (assume a ground) and black and white - one from each half. Suggestions for wiring? Thanks.

BluRay's advice good. Keep it modular. I do like 15s, though, but I'm old skool. I use a 2x10 + 1x15, with an extra 1x15 for large stages/silly volumes. Most important is to use sufficient amplifier power. I use an add on/slave power amp for the additional cabs. Means the rig isn't straining.

You have to learn the rules first, so you know which ones you can break/bend and when. Otherwise, it's just a mess. "Creativity" often used to cover up for sloppiness, imho...

Everything's faked these days. Online selling makes it easy for scammers. If the deal looks too good to be true, it probably is.

keefbaker's hit the nail on the head, I think. If I play the things I want to play, with people I enjoy playing with, I'm happy not to make much - I used to play for a living , but have a decently paid day job these days. But if I'm expected to play music I can't stand/have played to death and put up with drunks/nonsense, it ceases to be fun and I expect to be paid for my trouble.

Gotta be 15s. Several of 'em. I know, I know. Modern 2x10s and 2x12s are supposed to give it sufficient wellie, but they just don't, OK.

Alex, you're being too sensible.

Frequencies that low may cause an unfortunate commotion in the old trousers... Probably best avoided

Fusion are selling the F1 for £100 delivered as it's being discontinued. Mine arrived today (24 hour delivery). Excellent bag.
