    Evening all, I have a stripped P bass body that I need spraying in tobacco sunburst. Does anyone know of a handy chap/ette in east anglia who could help? I know some of the more talented (or reckless) among us would suggest doing it myself, but I am deeply hopeless at that sort of thing. Best left to a pro, I fancy. Any and all help much appreciated.

    Lovely bass. A bargain for someone. GLWTS.

    I've been looking for one on and off for years, they seem to be fetching quite sensible money these days. IIRC I've seen them go for about £700ish on eBay. I did win one with issues for £280 a couple of years ago and then the seller ratted. Bah humbug.Good luck with the search!

    Lovely work Andy. Are they all rub on finishes? I really like that six string you built for yourself. Nicely put together..;0)

    a lot of bass for the money.

    Blimey. Someone has fitted NL4 outs to the micro tech.

    What he said...
  13. W1_Pro
    That is a good question...

    Aesthetic reasons really. I thought it looked a bit cheap and nasty.

    I've put flats on mine, taken the plastic pickup raiser off and lowered the action. It's growing on me.

    He's right.....

    Trace Elliott

    W1_Pro replied to Quilly's topic in Amps and Cabs

    Awesome machines. I had an AH150 running a trace 8x10 for about ten years from 1986. Never ran out of gas. Stupidest thing I ever did was sell it. There is nothing like an old trace 810. As someone said further up the thread, it's the solidity of the note you get. It's like a PA cab....

    A good buy for someone then! Thanks for the info Ped...:0)

    I've always had a soft spot for the graphite necked Vigiers and this is obviously a bit special. But please tell me those aren't plastic plugs covering the redundant control knob holes....please.....

    I'd like to trade my iAmp 600 for something class D. Probably with cash your way. Something like a GK MB800 fusion, an Eich, etc etc. Hit me up with what you have. I bought this from Karlfer about a year or so ago ago, It's a fine machine. I think I've managed to use it once in the ensuing period. Still in very good condition. There is a very minor bend in the front plate due to the stress of being mounted in a rack. I'm being very honest here, tbh it's so minor you probably wouldn't even notice. Here's a link to the original sales thread:

    I think you might well be right. I remember reading somewhere (possibly on here) that the guts of the original T bird pickups were repurposed lap steel ones that were surplus to requirements. I messed about with it again this morning (the bass that is, fnar fnar). I'm still struggling to love it. First world problem!

    Thus far, I'm finding mine difficult to warm to. Sounds sort of...clanky? Not like a Gibson. Or not like a Gibson that I've heard, I should say.
  25. W1_Pro
    Actually yes. I was completely wrong on all counts. I bought the bass in 91, it was indeed new in '87. The exchange did happen in John Henrys Cafe tho. Just four years later than I thought it did....
