I'll take that please

Great playing necks on these if I remember correctly, it was the nicest bass I tried in a New york shop some years ago.

Not been used much and only at home for recording a couple of things so besides some quite minor edge scrape, this is in very good condition. It was never gigged or set up in a pedal board. Fantastic looping/delay with multiple choices.

I have the dedicated power cable and manual..This pedal seems to be going for £100 and more on other sites so this is a good deal!

..Price includes UK shipping.

If its a fine neck then of course leave it.....marking where the rods sit now ( I use one of those silver markers) and then slacken off to zero effect will show how much or little they are being used. You raised a point I had never thought of with which side needs more ‘trussing’ and my thought it they should be equally taught but then again, Ive never had a dual rod neck......anything on the Spector site?

Be ‘green’ with envy maybe .... its actually a great sounding rig, hardly used but I linked it with a 12” cab once and blew the sound engineer away.! Thanks glassmoon.

A good read!

Fender bass bridges are near the end of the body and I remember talking about topic this years ago with another bass builder and tapping an unloaded Fender type body where the bridge is usually placed, it sounded 'lighter/hollow' as opposed to tapping the body more or less where the precision pickup would go, where it sounded quite different, more 'solid'. So possibly a Gibson guitar or (Les Paul type) bass has the bridge in the best 'area' of body wood while Fender type bridge placements dont take advantage of the best area to mount a bridge.......maybe leading to the idea of the high mass bridge to help overcome this.

Eventually found one locally a grand cheaper than last years price.

Very good dealing with Tomasz, great comms and Hermes tracked with quick delivery...., cheers

thanks everyone...

My model had the 1TB fusion drive from new - not quite SSD speeds but plenty fast enough for me

 

I’ve had a good friend and dedicated iMac user of decades saying the same that fusion drive is heads above hdd. I think a 16 or better 32gb ram works well too.

I’ve looked at that, a bit confusing with comments online elsewhere saying certain (later?) models can’t be altered like that, only ram upgrade...

You’ve got more chance of getting macs from colleges who specialise in arts. Might be worth contacting a few locally

Good idea, cheers

I wondered if anyone here knows of a source for Imacs that are being sold off from office closures?

I'm looking for a 27" 2019 fusion drive (for music software application). I've viewed a lot of online re-sellers. Still pretty expensive

agains John Lewis and Currys who have new 2019 ones only a bit above asking prices from re-sellers....any clues ?

Jaw line meets up around the ear area of bone, pressure happening to the aural nerves, perhaps exacerbated by a misaligned skeletal back. Some people grind their teeth with extreme pressure to the jaw/ ear area. My father in law trained in bombers in the war and in later life had tinnitus. He didn’t go to rock concerts!

SOLD

Now £30

An SKB 4 unit approx 21inch/53cm deep rack case. All in good order. Hasn't been used for a while. It used to store two power amps that were sold a while back

and I've just found this case under (all) the other stuff we musos collect in the garage! I've almost succeeded in removing my stencilled name off so 'yours' can

go over it. Size and weight is around 5kg unpacked / 53cm deep / 56 wide / 23cm high.

Looking at 'Parcel2Go' as a guide, postage appears to be about £6-10 (Hermes) without or with insurance but you could obviously collect or arrange your own

courier as funnily enough, I'm currently at home a lot.

Don’t forget Bartolini and Delano

Yes.

Terrific dealing with Alan...bass on an as near as new MXR M81....posted and delivered within 24 hours....top man!

£525 not £635...couldn't change that part of the post.

This is the 2x10” Richard Bona Ninja combo, it has a fitted Roqsolid cover that cost around £50 to get. I have not used this unit as much as I wanted, maybe 4/5 times as the type of gig I was expecting didn’t really materialise enough. It’s a great sounding lightweight and powerful combo and this version of the MarkBass 500 watt  8 ohm cabinet matches very well. A second 8 ohm cab can be linked up to get the full potential of the amp, I’ve hooked up a MB 1x12 cab and it is a really good bass sound. In excellent condition and needing a home. 

I am based NE Hampshire, I have the original MB box for it for courier.

I have a very early Warwick Streamer, including the almost obligatory headstock (lol) repair. The repair is sound, but not the best looking ever (and in places too uneven for my liking) and I do feel that adding 2 Wenge splines and putting a new veneer on the headstock is a good mod/repair upgrade. Since I am building a neck with wenge, I should have the offcuts needed for the splines and a bookmatched veneer.

Does anyone know if the early Warwicks were wax finish only or oil + wax? Calling @warwickhunt and @Kev and any others who might know.

 

I bought a Warwickin 1989/90...pretty sure I was informed it had a wax finish. Warwick have their tins of wax, I think it has carnauba in it and is non silicon.

Is that you Pete? 
 

Pete’s work who build these basses is amazing. And he is also the reason I play bass and has become a dear friend! He’s a great guy and his work is amazing! 

 

he also used to play with many amazing people including Peter Green for many years! 

Yep, it’s me Jim and thank you for the kind words.....hope you are well...

One from my workshop that I ve put out for sale....33" scale fretless, small fast 3 piece neck. A tad under 38mm nut width. 

I made it as a 'new' variation to try a small bodied bass and slim neck. Works a treat and sounds great, as heard at a bass bash.
