  1. What are the P bass body contours like? As I stated in the other thread I'd love a white blonde relic someday,- like a lightly worn AV57. But I'd like a real light body with nice contours, 1.625 neck, (possibly even smaller) heavy rolled fingerboard. I'm sure he could do it. What is the rough cost of a custom order? Anyone have one in Cornwall I can try?
  2. What happened to the original neck?
  3. Warmoth have a couple J necks in their online shop for good prices.
  4. What happened to the OP? I thought there was a question coming!
  5. When it falls will always be my favourite. I think Simple Things probably has the better singles, but When It Falls is a joy from start to finish.
  6. Sling a couple washers under the truss nut. She'll be good as new! Looks lovely
  7. Interesting thread. I had a C4H a few years ago which was a joy to play- light, well balanced, beautiful neck, but sounded crap. I didn't bother wasting time switching pickups and just sold it on, but would be interested to know how you get on. FWIW it sounds like you want a stingray? Get a stingray! The new MM subs are very light with non-chunky necks.
  8. Vocal is too high in the mix again. Damn I hate U2. And Coldplay.
  9. Argh! Just checked my iPhone and there's bono staring at me, bold as brass.
  10. Give it to me.
  11. Thanks to the ever wonderful David at Cotswold Bass guitars I may soon have a 70's project P bass to work on. One thing is a definite- it needs a refin! I wondered if anyone could give guidance on the available colours at this time? The bass looks as if it was originally black, and has a wonderful grain which would compliment my preferred choice of white blonde, but i'm completely ignorant as to what was available at this time, other than that really weird mocha brown colour! I saw a yellow precision with an S8 serial in Modern Music in Truro a few years back- it wasn't faded Oly white, it was very much yellow- ferrari yellow, if you like. It looked like the original finish so not sure what this was? Thanks guys!
  12. [quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1410542001' post='2550624'] I like what Ginger Baker said about Bonham, that he had no swing, "Bonham couldn't swing a sack of sh*t". [/quote] I like that quote too. Two very different drummers though.
  13. Any specific info on the makers of the body and neck? Nice looking bass.
  14. Ooh Fender badged one. Nice! Didn't they all start in '82 though?
  15. [quote name='fumps' timestamp='1410420516' post='2549165'] There last album "Yeh Ghost" (2009) was a little darker & more experimental and I dont think this sold as well as their other three. Shame really as I love their work with Sia as vocalist. I love that ladies voice [/quote] Yeah that was the last thing I heard- I really like pop art blue from that album. Didn't overly like The Garden I'll be honest- the Jose Gonzales remix was the best song on it for me.
  16. Yup I like them. They haven't been up to much recently though have they?
  17. Someone will be along shortly to advise you buy a Stingray....
  18. I am the mirror image of you Sir- a bassist learning drums! I played them in my teenage years although not to a particularly high standard, but always wanted to return to them one day. For my birthday this year I was given an old Tama Rockstar kit. The Mrs isn't happy, but it's in the spare room and takes a beating almost every day!
  19. Can forward deposit if it helps- my remaining PayPal balance of £20-ish. Things are a bit tight at present due to forthcoming wedding!
  20. Thanks guys, I had a feeling it wasn't legit, good job we have knowledgable folks around here!
  21. If you can wait til the end of the month (payday!) I'll take the sub-lime.
  22. Bought a guard from Ian, proper job!! Easy transaction, nae hassle!
  23. What recent US model would have had that type of logo? And where should the serial number be located? Just so I know
  24. I'm in the market for a replacement neck so saw this- Doesn't look legit to me- but then I'm no expert! Looks like a Squier logo'd job- can anyone confirm? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261587782387?
  25. Bargain indeed. Super instruments.
