  1. Crack on ! I have popcorn and beer
  2. Never thought of that one
  3. My onsite notifications are fine, but just this afternoon, i get a note in my note in-box that someone had responded in a thread i had posted in about an hour earlier I went to the thread via clicking the note in the in-box, and there was no reply. My post was still the last one in the thread. Possibly just a one off, and maybe trivial, but just thought i'd mention it
  4. Every bass he's ever listed over the years has always been well overpriced, whether good or rubbish. How does he make a living ..
  5. This site is slicker than a snake crawlin' across a mossbed in tennis shoes
  6. Welcome to the charic trouble shooting show . No job too small. 23 1/2 hour call out
  7. Same here William. I wouldnt want that Ford Anglia again, that i once owned. I've had bass cabs with jack sockets and immediately change them for Speakons. Its worth the effort, even if you have to ask someone to sort it
  8. Ah, ok. He's just a comedian having a giraffe. Panic over
  9. Eveyone's a winner - we never send you home empty handed on this show
  10. Check the neck pickup. Looks like its just the cover. There's no poles showing. This is one oddball bass
  11. Oh dear That ' jazz bass ' decal was applied by a Bonobo. Crooked as hell, just like the seller
  12. Thanks mr H I just had to dig a little deeper
  13. I do hope this brings in orders for ACG. If not swamped with work already, this will pump them up into orbit. Well deserved. ACG are up there with the most stunningly finished basses in the world. Its a small club, brilliant to know a UK builder is amongst the elite.
  14. Didnt there used to be a ' Threads i Started ' option, as well as ' My content ' ? If you only want to see threads you started , rather then everything you ever posted, you cant. At least i havent found it yet, if it is an option. I basically wanted to find all my ' For Sale threads, but can only find ' Manage My Content ', which is everything, and too cumbersome to trawl through
  15. Oooh, strap in everyone !
  16. Is it the equiv of dumping that 1.5 litre mini engine and slapping in a Mopar V8 big block ?
  17. I dub thee ' Sir Charic ' for services to BC, and your constant meddling with the mysteries of forum software
  18. Aha Got ya
  19. Digging deep into my skills with mathematics ( not ) i make that 5 basses , down from 7 Then again, i'm not known for my dexterity in subtraction
  20. Just another thought .. one of my basses has a monster pickup ( Schaller Bassbucker ) right up the body next to the end of the fretboard That is a BIG sound, i can tell you. This can help a lot without having to resort to distortion, which is something i detest on bass, though peoples taste in bass tones vary, obviously
  21. Do you mean a 3 piece plus a crooner, or do you mean 4 piece as in guitar, bass , drums, and ...some other instrument ? I was in a 3 piece ( git , bass, drums ) for a few years when i lived in Northampton, and we picked our tracks so that the sort of thin sound you mention when solos kicked in was partly avoided. The other ways is your guitarists sound. Our git was well aware of this thinning out, and set his tone accordingly. Being a grade 8 teacher, he knew what to do to fill the sound, rather than leave that to the bass, which is much harder to do
  22. A hacked no name P Bass. Reshaped head, and tuners replaced by the looks of things Nasty
  23. The choice of main and complimentary woods is marvellous. The scale length doesnt work for me personally, but that bass in 34 or 35 would be stunning
  24. Another wild night on Babychams ?
