  1. 500 miles . Proclaimers Yellow. Coldplay Superman. Laurie Anderson
  2. Sorry I haven't been in touch re this beast, thanks for shipping info. Something else may have come up. GLWTS and I will keep an eye on this in the interim. Maybe I'll be up in n.east before too long, have a relative I need to visit
  3. 80s Kramer converted to lefty. Bought cheap sold cheaper. Lefty Japanese Squier Precision with unknown make of very nice pickup. Sold with the above 1993.
  4. Second hand epifani ul212. Love mine, fairly light. 4 ohm. Very very loud.
  5. Basses and Amplifcation group is OK. Founder member but didn't want to be a moderator / administrator cos I try to limit my Facebook involvement. Also trying to get away from being 'utilised' by Google.
  6. Indeed. With the sad passing of Mo Foster and others the informative and funny raconteurs and authors are getting fewer. Quite like the bass but I've a touch of neuropathy so no dice with the weight....plus I'm left handed.
  7. It was actually a mains pressure supply, as you can imagine it's considerable in order to reach above a 4th floor flat.
  8. Thank you for your rational advice. Positive grid have said if I send it over in its original packaging they'll replace the power amp for $60. Fair play as I bought unit 2nd hand. A central london tech has said he could check inside safely power it up and put it through a few cycles for £80 in the event of success and not destruction. He's 20 minutes away on the bus All the rest of my absurd collection of amps & cabs unscathed. Have i mentioned 13 basses ?. As I have no immediate neighbours at present and a bare living room I've been checking my gear out at fairly loud settings and all is well. Laney Nexus tubes are looouud.
  9. Thanks. 75 feet here (ironically not safe in these circumstances) might be sufficient when the Thames Barrier is overtopped, presumably the pedal cabs will adopt a pedal gondola sort of arrangement . Unaffordable most likely.
  10. Look what the idiot contractors did to this heirloom / relic. Admittedly shoddily made 250yrs ago but Cuban Mahogany Veneer is/was beautiful. Maybe I should make some bass tops ??
  11. Kinga Glyk last night . She's personally engaging and a virtuoso player but the music just seems a bit bloodless to me. Still she's only a youngster.
  12. Living Room. Floating shoes had been retrieved
  13. For your delectation My Hall while water was flowing away
  14. I live in a top (4th) floor flat. The mains water supply in the loft fractured.!!!!!! Unit was away from falling water, carpet underneath was flooded before I managed to grab amplifier up. I suspect/hope that water only went into the bottom of the casing. I never leave any of my eqpt powered up. Am in contact with positive grid who are being quite helpful considering I bought it used on here & it's discontinued. I'd need to send it back to USA , I have the packaging. Still ........
  15. So I had a little positive grid bias bass amp on my living room floor. Grabbed it during the catastrophe and a very small amount of water drained so it wasn't full to the brim. Is it worth taking to a tech for him to dry fully and safety check or is the thing simply a write off.... ???? Landlord will be paying either way, but the amp has a load of personal patches on it and I'd like to keep it. Amazingly my basses synth and other amps cabs survived the deluge, including a CTM 30 & Laney Nexus Tube thank you hot covers . Flooding & giant capacitors would not have been fun.
  16. He also has a Precision style thing that mentions the intentionally inflicted woodworm holes and that he went for a "burnt floorboard " vibe. Sad to say I quite like the look of these😳😳 By comparison to "he who must be unmentioned" these are masterpieces
  17. Was a lovely Carvin on here that was withdrawn a while ago. Have a trawl through Arnis left handed page and you'll eventually find something tempting. Sure you could find an ACG that fits the bill.
