    Odd balls

    Here's one I picked up last year: Status Graphite neck. Warmoth body. Badass II bridge. Schaller tuners + Hipshot eXtender. J-Retro preamp. (Not sure what pickups are.) Straplocks. I did have a fretless version of it too, but I sold that.
  2. I think at least putting the county should be a requirement for ads.
  3. My Shaftesbury: Now has a Ric bridge and binding (pending collection).
  4. A conversation is but a transitory thing...
  5. Cluseau?
  6. Yep - playing my white Ric through that, I used to glide forwards even when I was standing still.
  7. I was fit as f*** back then! With that and my bass in a flight case, every day was a workout.
  8. Sure - no doubting it's a compromise; I don't think anybody is saying otherwise. (I used to have two Marshall 4x12s to go with that Burman too!)
  9. Well, I first tried one at the Olympia show in March and I really liked it and pretty much knew I'd get one if the opportunity arose. I then had a go on TheGreek's at the bass bash and I liked it. I then saw one when I was killing time in Birminham before a gig last month, but they said it was £299 and it was just on closing time. ebay had a 20% off offer earlier in the week, which took it to under £200, so I bought it. I don't know if that's flavour of the month or what. I've got a TE graphic amp and 1x15 & 2x10 cabs, so it kindof fits. For me the Elf seems to be what it says on the tin.
  10. Well, I think it's a product which was waiting to be done. I used to have a Burman valve amp in the 70s; it was a beast and weighed lawd knows now much. I've now got a (possibly) more powerful one which will fit in my pocket. It's never going to be the backine at Glastonbury, but then again I never am either. For me it's a step towards making my living room tidier...
  11. It seems to be OK.
  12. It's called progress.
  13. I'm not a fan of the Rockinbetters, but I've never played a Renegade (I did try another Retrovibe and it had a definite Chinese feel to it). Given that choice, I'd probably hold out for a vntage Japanese one...
  14. Yep - that's its market!
  15. That's quite impressive work!
  16. Audi used "Here comes the sun" in an advert.
  17. Get him to buy it then! :-)
