  1. [quote name='NJE' timestamp='1498413812' post='3324404'] I noticed more Rics this year [/quote] Who was using them? I'll check them out!
  2. Watching the FF set on the iPlayer now. I like them....and it proves that in 2017 a great rock band can still really bring it. They're showing how poor so many other acts are in comparison. Funny DG mentioned Ted Nugent....he seems to have become his late 70s double! Loving the set.
  3. ....just watching his full set now. Mind-blowing. What a fantastic artist. Band is just superb. Such a change from the norm I've seen so far, with every rhythm section doing the same old.
  4. Thundercat's skeleton trousers - reminicent of The Ox's outfit....think it was the 1970 Isle Of Wight? ...plus his usual 6-string Ibanez!
  5. Elbow man was sporting a Mustang bass on the brief bit I saw. Didn't get the chance to get any further detail, other than it sounded really good.
  6. Sold Jim a strap. Transaction was completed in record time - money sent quicker than I could mark 'sold' on the thread! Superb east to deal with. A credit to BC without doubt.
  7. Adjustable between 100 to 148cm. Based on web, and my own measurements!
  8. Having a clear-out, and so here's a DSL padded leather strap. These are amazing quality Australian-made straps. If you've not seen them, here's their site - [url="http://www.dslstraps.com.au/"]http://www.dslstraps.com.au/[/url] This is the padded version - it retails for around £40. Condition is excellent - used, but no issues as the pictures show. Barely been used - just enough to soften it up a bit. Only looking for £20, UK postage included. Payment by Paypal 'gift' please. Thanks for looking! SB [attachment=247532:IMG_20170618_164352.jpg] [attachment=247533:IMG_20170618_164454.jpg] [attachment=247534:IMG_20170618_164509.jpg]
  9. Here is a genuine Fender pickguard, to fit a USA Jazz (amongst others) in mint green. Looks white in the photo, but it's a real MG! I recently purchased a Jade Pearl Jazz here on BC. I've changed the PG to a red tort, so have no use for this one. It goes to the cost of the replacement! Condition is used, but very good indeed as you can see in the photograph. Why buy an aftermarket - here's the real deal. Only looking for £15, postage included in the UK. Paypal gift please. Thanks for looking! SB [attachment=247531:pick.jpg]
  10. Saw a pic of both this and the pink one over on TB. To me, they both look incredibly cheap. These are 2k+ instruments. I loved a comment on TB, a poster suggested that the pink one would look more at home with a Hello Kitty logo. I think he's got a point!
  11. The Bass Gallery always have some cracking Rics, well under new prices.
  12. http://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Tech-21-Geddy-Lee-Signature-1u-RackMount-PreAmp/1UOM?origin=product-ads&utm_campaign=*PLA+Shop+-+All+Products&utm_medium=vertical_search&network=google&adgroup=**All+Products&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=86422d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=41477300408&gclid=CjwKEAjwjunJBRDzl6iCpoKS4G0SJACJAx-VmtM8OKOWGQjToTd-WyJ4Jd2fOh6Yx04tJX3kI6WWwhoC337w_wcB
  13. Looks great, only about an hour from me. Hopefully get the band in the studio for a new EP this year - just the rates that scared me [s]a bit[/s] a hell of a lot!
  14. I bought a wonderful used one on here from Basskit Case (Mike). First Jazz in ages I've actually liked - the feel, the tone.....I've had a few US Standards, and TBH, I like these far more!
  15. Here's a mint Fender bass gig bag. Came with a recently acquired Flea bass - I'm a hard case user, never use these, so it's going to fund another purchase! Immaculate condition, only asking £15. Collection from Romney Marsh in Kent. Cost of sending may outweigh the items value.....but happy to consider if no local takers. Thanks for looking! SB
  16. Bought Mike's Flea J-bass - an as-new relic! Super transaction - Mike kept me informed at every turn, and we did the deal in great time. Deal with confidence, thanks again Mike!
  17. Thanks DD - I'll give a good bend before using it to see how tough it is. You didn't buy yours from this place did you, the one I linked in the first post? Place seems to have good FB for their products, so I hope it's not a lemon. Only just under £3 all in, so it's not a disaster if so, just annoying!
  18. Fab, thanks Roger - appreciated.
  19. I've been a bit inactive on here for a bit - but still read with interest every day... ....and I've been a member since 2008! Unbelievable! Many happy returns to ol' BC!
  20. I was looking for a simple, plain neck plate for a Jazz. Found these on eBay - [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Chrome-Guitar-Bass-Neck-Plate-fits-Fender-Squier-Strat-Stratocaster-SECO-/172180885701?hash=item2816c7d0c5:g:G~cAAOSw2GlXHzjg"]http://www.ebay.co.u...~cAAOSw2GlXHzjg[/url] I've not got one to measure against to see they would fit. Can anyone help?
  21. Sold my US Precision (what else?) to Lozz, colour was black/maple/black (what else!!) A true gent to deal with - payment was instantaneous, transaction super-smooth. Bass couldn't have gone to a nicer guy. Thanks Lozz!
  22. One of my faves, too. Very sad loss.
