  1. No no no and no again. Are you left or right handed when you drive a car? I am talking about players who play left handed basses.
  2. I stick my tongue out so I've been told. Sorry didn't mean to upset anyone.
  3. +1 on Lol. Check which bands/artists are playing near on the day? Looking forward to this my first bash. I'd like to see Tom Jenkinson AKA Squarepusher.
  4. I bet his mommy is so proud of him, maybe thats why she bought him the Alembic. Now if only the $50,000 she paid to his shrink could get rid of those facial ticks.
  5. [quote name='mxm' post='31406' date='Jul 13 2007, 05:09 PM']Guilty as charged.[/quote] Hi mxm, don't tell me that bass in your avatar is a certain 1963 Jazz from Vintage and Rare, and if it is it's not yours......is it?
  6. No good to me mate read my details
  7. [quote name='beerdragon' post='31153' date='Jul 13 2007, 11:12 AM']There was this thread not long back. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1724&hl=left+handed"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...;hl=left+handed[/url][/quote] Cheers beerdragon, I remember it but it had posts by left handed people who play right handed, I'd like to hear from players who play lefty basses. Anyway what was your first left handed bass? (not yours beerdragon) Mine was an Ibanez Blazer Precision type, natural with a maple neck. I paid £99 for it from a shop in Birkenhead called Fushion Music. The guy let me try it through a Trace rig, as they were one of only a handful of dealers who had a franchise back in 1985. It sounded great and I couldn't wait to get it home to play it through my stereo, it didn't take long to blow the speakers. I wish i still had it.
  8. A big hello to all Basschat Lefties. After speaking to Bigash and Lefty 68 we thought it would be a good idea to see how many of us there are in the membership, seeing as there are almost 1000! members there should be more than just 3! So if you're out there get in touch. Chees Steve. Sorry I forgot Qfunk
  9. I know our woods will be different, I meant to say similar but in reverse and I'm cancelling my order with Alan seeing as he's gone and told you what he's building next for me So it will have to be Harlot S Type instead. BTW it's going to have super light gague strings on it so I can play it just by the power of thought.
  10. Bloody hell, I didn't realise we had 950+ members! Ash is #949. That means there could be 100 of us destined to roam the earth looking for lefty basses to GAS over, Nooooooooooooooooooooo!
  11. Hi Lefty 68, Hi Ash. Ilove both your Warwick, Lefty and your Shuker, Ash. We should see how many of us there are first. If it's 10% of the population then to my reckoning that should mean there's about 75-80 of us. Somehow I don't think so. Anyway science has proved that we are more intelligent and much better looking than Northpaws.
  12. Fantastic! Your neck woods are like mine but in reverse. How many emails? I thought mine were excessive. I think ours are off to the spray booth next. Have you seen who's ordered one of Alans jazzes? Mine not even finished but I know what I want Alan to build next for me, can you guess children?
  13. Oh no. You spend ages looking for a lefty fretless then when the moths in your pocket have got lint in their pockets.....
  14. I like that Hamer too. How much?
  15. Anybody played the Wheatsheaf in Stoke or T.J.s in Newport the stages are about 6ft high and made of cardboard. Sounds like playing inside a duvet but out front the sound great!
  16. [quote name='steve-soar' post='30746' date='Jul 12 2007, 03:06 PM']Hi Hooky, I'm using the ABMC115 575W MK1 with a ABM Mini 48 on top. They are the same depth but the 48 is about 130mm smaller width ways, sounds absolutely fantastic and is as solid as a rock.[/quote] Hi Hooky, BTW you'll be the first to know if I decide to sell the above, that's if you are still interested in any of it. It's a bit heavy you know. Cheers Steve.
  17. Hi Hooky, I'm using the ABMC115 575W MK1 with a ABM Mini 48 on top. They are the same depth but the 48 is about 130mm smaller width ways, sounds absolutely fantastic and is as solid as a rock.
  18. Sorry mate, didn't see your first post. 300w off guitar!!!!! I'm suprised you can hear yourself at all.
  19. T.O.B.E.M. should have bought the Trace. How much did you pay for the Hartke gear?
  20. Hi Bob, I think if you are genuinely not happy you should change them both for seperate amp, 1x15" and 2x10" and see if Trace will not charge you for the extra cost as a good will gesture. Worth a try.
  21. I used to own a Jaydee MK, the bodies were so wide in fact everything seemed too big. I sold it in 1995 and have spent the last few years trying to track it down (left handed, opalescent white, bound neck and headstock-could be in North Wales, Chirk, possibly .) On the other hand I bought a 1976 Thunderbird, right handed, in black and played that upside down, restrung for lefty, it balanced really well and was comfy too.
  22. Ped, how much did she cost?
  23. Sorry I ment the gallery on Alan site.
  24. Go and look in my build diary and look for the photo of just the body. Remind you of a Great White shark by any chace?
  25. [quote name='Sugden' post='23319' date='Jun 26 2007, 12:20 AM']Oo another pic with the new musicman style pickups installed can't wait to hear them on the fretless. The soap bar humbuckers I have at the moment are stunning, but double bucks couldn't refuse. Plus its 18V as well so an even greater range of tone could be there. [/quote] Lets spread the tropical joy all around. I love the way your ACG looks, high, low who cares. Great shirt, the world would be a happier place with more colour. I'm having the MM's in my 6 string and with a nod to you, the 18v option. Your bass is going to be on ACG forums for years to come.
