  1. What about an ACG? Just seen this come up in the "For Sale" section: Peavey Cirrus 35"
  2. As the 4001/4003 is 33.25", it doesn't quite fall into either the 32" or the 34" (+/- 0.5") categories. Ric players are being discriminated against again! Rights for Ric's!!!!! Can't help myself...
  3. Very jealous. Heard loads of good things about the VBA's, and always wanted one (and/or an Ashdown CTM). Complete overkill, but just glorious.
  4. We Took the Wrong Step Years Ago - Hawkwind
  5. three delays? three delays? three delays?
  6. In pairs usually, thanks to the 2x2 headstock. Top & bottom, remove & replace, then the middle two, remove & replace. If I need to do any cleaning or anything, then all the strings off before replacing.
  7. Please Mr Postman - The Marvelettes, Beatles, Carpenters etc
  8. Just bought Dave's Babicz Ric Bridge, excellent chap to deal with, many thanks. 👍
  9. Maybe try a different plug adaptor, with a view to changing the plug to a UK one?
  10. You might get a few volunteers to help store some bits for you...
  11. An 8 string, octave course. Just fancy one. And a Dingwall D-Roc, because they look ace.
  12. Bought a few scratchplates & TRC's from Tim for some of my old Faker's. Great service. 👍
  13. Welcome. It might just be a case of the fact that you're just not used to playing bass, and you just need to "stick with it". You don't mention whether you play any other instrument, so I don't know if you're just not used to playing anything, or whether you've played something else that is a bit smaller than a bass. Certainly, if you're not used to playing, doing some finger stretches before you play may help, and then play in short bursts, say 15 mins, have a rest for a bit, then do another 15 mins.
  14. I've had a few guitar pickups from various UK makers, but the only bass pickups I've bought have been a pair from Gemini Pickups, as mentioned by @ahpook. The process was really good, he turned them round in reasonable time, good communication, sound really good, can't fault them.
  15. Spirit In The Sky - Norman Greenbaum / Doctor and the Medics
  16. Take one cab one week, another cab another week?
  17. If it's for recording, then I would agree that a digital solution may be better and potentially more versatile in the studio environment. Assuming that there is already one digital solution for the guitar to use, then adding another would be a good idea, if the plan is to record multiple sources (be it bass or another guitar). Something like a Helix Stomp/Headrush GigBoard/Kemper Profile Player would be ideal, especially if you have access to one of their full blown siblings. You could have a small practice amp kicking about as well. Big amps and small live rooms don't always get the right sounds for the job.
