  1. [quote name='bamboo' timestamp='1329686713' post='1546029'] Nick, Could you pm me your payment details ? I upgraded the pups on a Warwick rockbass with a pair of jazz pups, just need the right cap to complete it. [/quote] PM'd you details Bamboo.

  3. [quote name='BB3000S' timestamp='1329260464' post='1539887'] Oooh, I would love to get these into my jazzes and BB's! Could you please PM me payment directions including shipment to Sweden for 5 caps please? (have paypal, would prefer that as gift transfer over involving the banks due to their charges - even though that would also be ok). [/quote] PM'd you BB3000S. Thanks Nick

  6. Don't know much about him, but I will & should do ..... I love Alphonso Johnson's playing here with Bobby & the Midnites. Quite inspiring for me. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbF5RXj0vgM[/media]

    Chorus!

    I use my Boss CE-2 clone with mix control, depth, vibrato & bass mods. Its nice & warm, not cold, or sterile and is very bass friendly. Lot of tonal variety too. [IMG]http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j476/nickonbass69/Pedal%20Builds/CE2a015.jpg[/IMG] It's the same pedal circuit as [b]CMAT Mods 'Waterbox'[/b], so I'd definitely recommend trying one of those if you can find one.

  8. [quote name='apa' timestamp='1328740220' post='1532097'] If you want some realy in your face Mick Karn lines check out Dalis Car stuff. A [/quote] +1 On the flipside, to hear some quite structured Karn work, but still with his tone & style, listen to the Joan Armatrading stuff he played on.
  9. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1328531904' post='1528489'] Hi Nick I might have one spare. Let me check tonight and I'll get back to you! [/quote] Cheers Gareth, that would be great if you had a spare .070.
  10. GONE - Mods could you please delete. Thanks [s]Used D'Addario Chromes Flats .050, .085 & .105 - (no D string) cut for a Fender. Could be useful as spares to someone playing these. Free, just cost of postage. Please PM me if interested. Thanks Nick P.S. Alternatively if anyone has a spare .070 D string, please let me know[/s]

    Hi all, just acquired this lovely 1980 Marathon. Been looking (on & off) for a sensibly priced, decent Marathon for a long time.... so when this came up on BC, I had to have it. Got a few dinks & the usual crazy lacquer cracking, which I personally love, but its in pretty good nick for its age. Needed a couple of turns on the truss rod (previous owner had not touched it from buying bass new), and after lowering the the action a bit & restringing with a fresh set of DRs, it really plays like a dream. The jacksockets are a bit dicky, going to to rewire & replace with a mono switchcraft, and probably going to rewire the pickup in series (currently wired parallel) along with upgrading the slightly crackly 100k(?) pots to CTS ones.

    Fuzz!

    I do like the Jumbo Tonebender & Wooly Mammoth, very different to each other.... but my favourite at the moment is a Maestro Brassmaster clone I built. However next planned build is a 'Violet Rams Head' Big Muff clone with mid control, so that could be the one for me....
  13. PM'd
  14. I put an MM neck, a cream pearloid scratchplate & an EMG on my sonic blue Ryder body, strung with black nylons.... gig it regularly. It's a good bitsa & made a fairly decent P-Bass.
  15. Off the top of my head....Ian Astbury, Will Sargeant, Hooky, Nick Mason, Shaun & Paul Ryder.
  16. A small discreet voltage doubler (9v to 18v), negating the need to have two batteries, and could also be retro-fitted to existing intalled EMGs, would have been more useful.
  17. Been considering a Promethean for a while. The new Promethean model makes the Beta Alvin manufactured Harley Benton BA500H seem more appealing to me now.
  18. Hi Iain, Welcome & hope you enjoy the forum! Cheers Nick
  19. Martin bought a Seymour Duncan 'Quarter Pounder' off me. Prompt payment, good coms - what's not to like? Top man - recommended. Thanks Nick
  20. Paul bought a P-Bass body off me. Straightforward sale no messing about, the kind of deal everybody likes. Recommended. Cheers Nick

  22. That is gorgeous - have a bump. I have a black '83, exactly the same, but with a R/W fingerboard. It's the one bass I would save if my house was on fire. If this is as good as mine, whoever buys this, will cherish it, if they appreciate a mighty fine P-Bass.
