  1. Welcome to the forum @hedgepigbass 😊 Where in Somerset are you? There’s a few of us yokels on here!
  2. I think it’s the first time I’ve seen a parrots beak headstock. Could be a game changer 😂
  3. Have just fitted a set of LaBella Mustangs on my classic vibe Mustang and they’re perfect. Really nice tension and silky smooth.
  4. I saw that advertised when I took my daughter to see the Smashing Pumpkins at Gunnersbury on Sunday. I’d love to see Khruangbin but the cost of another trip to the big smoke is too much at the moment 😔
  5. Hi Nathan, great to have you on board 😊
  6. @Lozz196 Do you think these will fit the Squier CV Mustang?
  7. Bought a Squier CV Mustang bass from Lozz - We agreed to meet halfway which meant a nice stop at a service station along the M4. Money and bass was promptly exchanged, the bass was exactly as described then we then proceeded to talk all things bass/gigs/music for over an hour! An absolute gent to deal with 🤩
  8. Have some unused valves knocking around that aren't going to get used. They were purchased a while back as spares for the Fender Tweed Deluxe kit I built. I have tested them this morning in my amp and all are working fine with no noises of any kind. The EHX preamp valves are 1 x 12AX7 and 1 x 12AY7 - one has the original box the other one doesn't for some reason, but both are unused and have been sat in my drawer. The 12AX7 is now sold Looking for £12 posted for the 12AY7 please. The rectifier valves are 2 x NOS Brimar 5Y3GT and 1 x NOS Pinnacle 5Z4GT - The Pinnacle can be used as drop in replacements for a 5Y3GT. I bought all of these as New Old Stock and they come with the original boxes but do have signs of wear on the cardboard. The Brimar valves have a corrugated cardboard and tissue paper protective cover that come with age appropriate smell 😂 Looking for £15 each posted please. Happy to arrange local meet-up with price adjustment if needed.
  9. Bought an MXR Deluxe Chorus pedal from Shaun. The pedal arrived super quick, was well packaged and exactly as described. Great communication as well, he's a top guy to deal with. Really happy with the pedal, it's way more flexible and noise free compared to my old EHX Bass Clone. Cheers Shaun 😁
  10. Dunlop Tortex green triangle .88mm for me, gives a good balance between punch and warmth. I’ll swap to a yellow if I want more clack. It’s amazing how you get used to the different shapes, if I try a normal teardrop shape pick it feels odd now 😂
  11. Sounds like a grounding issue
  12. Stevie Wonder in Cardiff on 9th July then Neil Young with Cat Stevens at Hyde Park on 11th, then Smashing Pumpkins with my 15yo daughter in London on 10th August. Took her to watch Guns and Roses at Villa Park last week as well which she really enjoyed, and I also saw Mike Watt with MSSV a couple of weeks ago in Bristol. Pipe that live music right into my veins 😂
  13. Thanks Mark, certainly is a whole lot of amp for the money. Flexible eq and enough power for most of the gigs anyone's likely to play.
  14. I bought a used one recently off the forum to fit on my precision and it’s great. I had to lower the relief and the nut slots needed some fettling but the profile is great and the fretwork was fine. I only needed to give the truss rod about a quarter turn but it was smooth and felt reassuringly solid. Hope that helps
