  1. [quote name='Ou7shined' post='996347' date='Oct 21 2010, 08:25 PM']If there were such a thing as a "smug" smiley I'd have posted it instead of this. :)[/quote]

    There isn't? There should be, for just such a moment.

    Anyway, Ou7shined info is indeed correct.

    More info on the neck can be found here [url="http://www.smart-distribution.co.uk/bassandguitar/modulusguitars/replacementneckshtml.html"]http://www.smart-distribution.co.uk/bassan...tneckshtml.html[/url]

    Its a gloss finish version, marks on the fingerboard consistent with use of roundwounds, other than that the bass is in top condition.

    Comes with a generic gig bag

  2. Trousers.... sorry about that

    Sun was out but I missed it, rolled out the red carpet instead














    And, hopefully, working links

  3. Rather expensive experiment with fretless that proved I am incapable of playing them, should have started with a Squier VMJ or something, what can I say I'm a sucker for graphite.

    If the sun EVER gets his hat on round Liverpool again I'll get my own pics up but I dont think I can do better than the pics and descriptions that were done for the original for sale threads over yon here

    £650 would be lovely in my wallet thankyouplease

    I'm in Liverpool but work in the centre of Manchester so either location could possibly arranged for pickup type affairs, if not am sure postage can be sorted too.

    Thanks for looking

  4. Am thinning my fleet and since I'm rubbish at 5 string this has to go first.



    G&L Tribute L2500 in drop dead gorgeous Blueburst over Swamp Ash



    Its one of the newer type with more understated Tributeness, bridge says G&L rather than Tribute etc.



    Excellent condition apart from these two marks caused by someone stringing it badly, I've tried to get a decent photo of the marks but it ain't easy, there are only marks at the B and A stringing positions.



    Freshly strung thru body with DR Hi-Beams and comes with a G&L gigbag.

    I'm after £385 for it, collection preferred from Liverpool or can travel to meet in the North West somewhere. Postage can be sorted at extra cost, still got the original shipping box including a highly sought after import duty sticker, thieving bastards.

    Pics show black strap pins, it'll have its original chrome ones on for the sale.

  5. When i stripped tha lacquer off a neck, I used wire wool (00000 grade) to give it a very smooth finish, then a small amount of danish oil to seal it, you might find that tung oil is quite thick compared to tru oil and danish oil unless you thin it down with turpentine

  6. [quote name='tayste_2000' post='521859' date='Jun 23 2009, 04:57 PM']Loads probably got like 8

    How many could you possibly need

    I think the 5 plug ones are spoken for unless I find another[/quote]

    ha, how many could YOU possibly need?!

    PMed

  7. [quote name='kevbass' post='514787' date='Jun 15 2009, 09:35 PM']with a different pre in it can you still replicate fieldys signature click boom type sound, is it still possible to completely scoop out the mids? I thought there was some sort special doohickey type gizmo in the stock pre that did this[/quote]

    when i had this bass, the easiest way to get Fieldy's sound was simply to detune everything, the way he and the other Korners do, so the B string is tuned to A and so on, the strings are then so slack that you will get the clicky boomy effect, then a tweak of the eq perfects it

  8. [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='514739' date='Jun 15 2009, 09:02 PM']I thought the Fieldy model was Black? Did they make it in a range of colours?[/quote]

    this is the one before the black version with the mahogany padauk sandwich body, the newer trans black version is just mahogany i believe.

    and this also used to be mine, in fact i think thats my pic up there!!

    i think i have the original preamp too......
