  1. [quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1337107010' post='1655649'] Fancy a swap for my Tom Petersson? P [/quote] Trade... but not a swap!
  2. [quote name='NoirBass' timestamp='1337096390' post='1655393'] Yum! Tasty Bass sir. [/quote] Cheers. [IMG]http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g119/warwickhunt/100_2246.jpg[/IMG]
  3. Is it the angle of the pic or is the bridge/neck misaligned and the G string close to the edge of the board, with the E string the opposite?
  4. [quote name='Bassulike66' timestamp='1337093826' post='1655314'] Preamp info.... [url="http://www.sfcj.net/en/e_data_Preamps.html"]http://www.sfcj.net/...ta_Preamps.html[/url] [/quote] Cheers for that. It is basically the same as the 88 circuit which tallies with this being an 89 instrument (serial number confirms this).
  5. [quote name='BassTractor' timestamp='1337091733' post='1655259'] After that post, and the intense FB advertising, my warm relationship to Warwick is already cooling down, I'm sorry to have to say. bert [/quote] I can appreciate that the FB advertising may be annoying (but at least they have voiced that they will take this on board) and the response in the post that you allude to does appear to be a bit of a corporate 'cut n paste' job but I'm not sure why that should cool your opinion of them!
  6. [quote name='chuck_stones' timestamp='1337091430' post='1655254'] Awesome! Anything in my sig tickle your fancy? [/quote] Unfortunately not mate. Thanks for the offer though.
  7. I've probably already asked (and forgotten) but what does this weigh? Oh and as regards trades... possible Warwick or Spector trade but do you have cash or are you wanting cash your way?
  8. Not that it helps you but I'm another that would have been knocking on your door if that Hamer had been a 4 stringer... in fact at that price had your 5er been sub 9lb (the 2-Tek accounts for about 2lb of that total weight ) I'd probably have taken a punt to see if it converted me!
  9. Cheers. I should really clarify that this is NOT the lesser NS2A or J models it is the pukka full blown USA NS2.
  10. I hear what you are saying but tbh most members ignore the bit about flagging up their own auctions; there are a handful on there at any given time. Last time I mentioned something along these lines someone pointed out that if a member had something on ebay and wanted to circumvent the forum rule then they just need to get another member to start a thread about it... not technically the member advertising their own auction!
  11. [quote name='Musky' timestamp='1336945817' post='1653167'] Given that he's the 'gnomes in the attic' feller, I wouldn't bother. Unless you fancy hearing about the price of his house and cars. [/quote] I wonder why he changed his user ID?
  12. [quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1336809977' post='1651283'] Tried the authentication route and made as much progress with AC/DC. There's more than 5 floating about I think, have been in contact with at least 4 owners of similar instruments. Feel free to use the original pics - am amazed at the quote from Alex though. [/quote] What quote from Alex?
  13. Trade only, not for sale at this point. If I A/B this Spector and my Warwick Streamer Stage I, I prefer my Streamer so this may as well go as it isn't going to get used over the SSI ...that's probably the worst opening trade pitch EVER but it is just my opinion and there are plenty folks who would prefer the Spector to Warwick. Manufactured in 1989 Quilted maple wings (the photo probably pops the quilt a bit more than in the flesh) Maple thru-neck Rosewood fingerboard EMG pups The back of the bass is the same burst colour as the front with a black finished neck rear. Complete with original Spector case Straplocks included General condition is generally good though it has a few dings around the bottom edge, though these are pretty difficult to photograph. The EMG pups and electronics work absolutely fine and the pots are lovely and smooth with no scratchiness. Truss rod is working 100% as I've just fettled it a bit and lowered the action. This bass used to belong to Funkyhobbit off BC (though I didn't buy it direct from him) so he may be able to help me out if you have any questions (e.g. what the preamp is etc. which is all original obviously) Trade - I'm not really sure what I want to be honest! I'd not refuse any style of bass BUT I'm only interested in 4 strings and I'd need to have an accurate weight for your bass and anything much more than 9lb is a definite no. I don't mind adding a bit of cash to a deal but equally I'd take a cheaper bass with cash my way.
  14. It would take nothing for one of them to join up and no way of checking I suppose.
  15. Has anyone ever run their TF 550 @ anything less than 4 ohms (not applicable to the 750 which I know can/does)? I'm [u]considering[/u] running a 4 ohm Aguilar DB212 + an 8 ohm DB112 (+ x2 DB112s would be OTT). It isn't a definite as I'll try the 212 by itself first but wondering if for the gigs where I might need a bit more, then I could add a 1x12. I'm not fussed about which cab is handling how much wattage etc. but my reading around of the running of the TF @ 2-4 ohm loads, is giving mixed views. I realise that it is rated at 4 ohms but there is plenty 'reading' to say that so long as you are sensible with volumes it'll run fine. I could buy myself a cheap power amp and slave off the TF or even a cheapie bass head that could be used as a slave to the other cab(s). This is all idle musing is I prepare to go out to my gig tonight.
  16. Collected a cab from Mick earlier today and I have to say that if anyone is sitting back mulling this one over then you need to get in quick before he comes to his senses and keeps it! I've been sitting for the last hour wondering whether my Spector NS2 or Parker Fly might sell in time for me to get this.
  17. Is this really just over 7lb? Does it balance on a strap OK?
  18. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1336762492' post='1650813'] I thought you only nought really lightweight stuff John Great cabs these & the Chocolate Thunder is a killer look! [/quote] I use a pair of DB12s and with casters on I'm hoping this will be as transportable (especially as we now use a van for gigs).
  19. I take it back!
  20. I didn't have you down as a Warwick player Clarky!
  21. Ah! I was under the assumption you were talking a pair of stacked knobs as opposed to a newer active/deluxe model.
  22. [quote name='jackhammer' timestamp='1336734966' post='1650143'] I tried out a us jazz the other week, brand new? I was under the impression they came stacked as standard now? [/quote] The standard/norm is still V/V/T. If it is a stacked pot it is either 60's reissue (they call it a 62 reissue but I have a feeling the VVT was generally in use by 62 and 'technically' the stacker should be earlier than that) or it has had the plate replaced.
  23. I'll take it Mick!
  24. I'll never part with my Bolins... or a couple of my Warwicks... or my PJ Sadowsky... probably not my Sterling(s)... other than that anything!
