  1. [quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1320238732' post='1424105'] If it wasn't for people replacing the sale price with the word 'SOLD' when they sell stuff. [/quote] Yes, very anti-social.
  2. [quote name='henry norton' timestamp='1318954891' post='1408223'] In the last week or two on TalkBass someone has posted news about a Swedish organisation that has been working with some of the old Hagstrom employees to re-recreate the Bi-Sonic, including a 5 string version. [/quote] Have you got a link for that?
  3. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1320272806' post='1424795'] I was thinking more along the lines of - work out how to build them, make a few for myself and post plans on internet.... Or get a factory in china to make a couple of 1000...... [/quote] Yeah, go for it, I'll take two.
  4. [quote name='Doctor J' timestamp='1320270397' post='1424743'] Bass direct had a trans white 54 style, custom shop model, a while back... I'd have killed you all for it [/quote] That was nice.
  5. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1320268964' post='1424716'] and apparently he's not making it anymore. [/quote] So, project that might not be quite fun ... buy Fred Hammon's tooling etc. and start making Dark Stars and see if you can keep up with the demand.
  6. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1320268327' post='1424704'] project that could be quite fun..... .... could you make your own darkstar? has anyone tried? [/quote] Well, Fred Hammon made his own Hagstrom Bisonic and called it the Dark Star.
  7. [quote name='Hutton' timestamp='1320228461' post='1423915'] Funny isn't it. I've never had a problem with them. They are on all my basses. [/quote] Same here, never had any problems with Schallers.
  8. [quote name='AntLockyer' timestamp='1320219464' post='1423796'] I don't get any fret noise with mine at all, might be worth checking your setup. My deep talkin flats feel so nice under the fingers, so smooth. [/quote] +1
  9. [quote name='lee650' timestamp='1320189114' post='1423692'] A great bass, i really regret selling thisa Dave has made some tasty upgrades too, i would have had this had i the cash, well will be looking for an NXT 5 next year with any luck!! [/quote] I only sold it because I need money to buy a 'proper' upright.
  10. I had some Wizard 64s in my Squier CV Jazz. They did the trick nicely and relatively cheaply.
  11. [quote name='bremen' timestamp='1320095203' post='1422366'] What? [/quote] A 'negotiable instrument' is a bit like a cheque - it is a promissory note or guarantee of payment, a bank draft.
  12. TNT T&C don't seem to mention musical instruments.
  13. [quote name='CBbass' timestamp='1320092478' post='1422296'] If this is the case then, do most people here just send uninsured? [/quote] I do, and I think many others do too because the insurance is pointless.
  14. Read the small print, many couriers won't insure musical instruments, although they will take your money.
  15. [quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1320090206' post='1422263'] I reckon you'd be better off getting one of the Dan Erlewine books. G. [/quote] +1
  16. [quote name='merello' timestamp='1320079795' post='1422036'] [b]1. Muse – 'Hysteria'[/b] [b]2. Rush – 'YYZ'[/b] [b]3. Queen – 'Another One Bites The Dust'*[/b] [b]4. Queen and David Bowie – 'Under Pressure'*[/b] [b]5. Pink Floyd – 'Money'[/b] [b]6. Metallica – 'Orion'[/b] [b]7. Michael Jackson – 'Billie Jean'*[/b] [b]8. Yes – 'Roundabout'[/b] [b]9. The Who – 'My Generation'[/b] [b]10. Tool – 'Schism'*[/b] * - ones I find weird! [/quote] Five of those I have never knowingly heard. I must get out more.
  17. Never heard of Great White but Hunter & Ronson I like.
  18. The G&L 2000 is a very nice bass but that's overpriced for a Tribute.
  19. That's an interesting and very useful site but there's quite a few missing but commonly used strings.
  20. [quote name='Rich' timestamp='1285067286' post='963179'] ... failure was, or may have been, lager-induced ... [/quote] I've had that experience too.
  21. [quote name='grum' timestamp='1319982820' post='1420770'] Seriously? Can you find one effects pedal that claims to be waterproof? [/quote] Best I could do: [url="http://www.altoedge.com/pedals/3-pedal-waterproof.html"]http://www.altoedge.com/pedals/3-pedal-waterproof.html[/url]
  22. [quote name='LemonCello' timestamp='1319977137' post='1420670'] Not surprised, bargain that! [/quote] Thanks, I said it was.
  23. And the number of watts claimed by the manufacturer may not be wholly accurate.
