  7. I possibly will see Dave sometime as i need some work doing. I'll mention the T Bird !
  8. Bit late to the Dave Smart party, Dave
  9. Dave Smart is quite a small bloke, and lean, like a whippet His web is actually https://www.smartguitars.co.uk/#about Not Dave Smart Guitars as i incorrectly stated
  10. @EBS_freak There used to be a couple of guys working in PMT in Oxford in a band called Twin Jet Superstar - I remember loving the guitarist's playing. Just been googling and it seems that the fella is called Dave Smart. Seems like he's moved on to pastures new and now has a repair business and got something to do with Oxford Guitar Gallery. There you go. The thread has rekindled some blast from past memories for me! Dave Smart is my amp tech. His web is Dave Smart Guitars. He's a lovely chap, so helpful. He's done much work for me in the past. He also builds guitars ( not sure about basses ) and they're stunningly made When my TE Mark V GP11 combo had a graphic and eq switch failure, he fitted the new switches ok, ( although a bit of a bar steward , apparently ) but i also wanted to keep the green TE outer covers so it still looked original, which according to Dave was a right pain, but he did it. He did a service too, and then a PAT test, which he sends to Gardener Electronics, an official PAT tester. Dave also serviced my Kustom Groovebass 1200 head, and did some remedial work to the circuit board, that some earhole had managed to murder
  11. Friend of mine who was in the Oxford band The Candyskins, used to work part time in PMT ( now owns and runs Shonk Studios in Oxford ) The Oxford branch of PMT are a helpful bunch
  12. Indeed Richard ! Being steered in the right direction with assembly order and which materials / tools would help, has been a mighty help
  13. I had some knobs made in the shape of a head.
  14. Ports siliconed !
  15. I'd never attempt a bass. See that router for sale in my sig ?
  16. I say guitar builds , yes - building a bass from scratch has to be admired. Just look at the stunning axes some the of builders here come up with And i'm building a box
  17. Very good Andy I'd post you a beer but it may be against P.O. rules
  18. Thats very lenient of you
  19. Me or the cab ?
  20. Seems a bit iffy - 2 or 3 times in 2 years ? Whats the hidden problem that successive buyers are not mentioning ..
  21. Yet another monstrosity at another silly price. Ebay's never short of dreamers
  22. rear panel twin speakon holes cut, and baffle / ports cut T nuts siliconed to board as they normally fall off just as one is screwing the driver to the baffle
  23. Nah, i dont play for visitors either. But just so they dont miss out on my stunning fingering, i send them to the link below, so they can hear my genius in a band setting Telling them its a fretless is pointless as non musos normally dont have a clue. I dont bother warning them its a rather silly track. They can find that out when the listen
  24. Side handle holes cut, and Peavey ( nicked from BVX cab ) wadding attached to the rear panel.
  25. I pronounce it Epip- Hone
