I tried a couple of the Performer series about 18 months ago. These pups were standard. Opinion only but to me they were a little weak & underwhelming.

Why do some BC sellers insist on buyer arranging courier?

I changed to "buyer arrange shipping" a couple of years back. This was when shipping costs rocketed, for example, a £1200 bass was going to cost over £70 insured from Wigan to London. The buyer didn't want to pay that so I offered them the chance to book their own, save some money AND TAKE THE RISK FOR THAT. They declined. I know when I send a bass it will be very well packed and as per photos in the advert. I also take photos of the packing process. I don't want to be tied up with; A. Chasing courier up because it's gone AWOL B. Spend months trying to get my money back from a courier who has charged me to insure they have dove the job I paid for!!!🤬 C. Both are exacerbated if outside of UK. In the UK theoretically I could (well, not for the next 3 weeks) get in my car, drive to the UK HO of the courier & cause them some grief! So, if you can't come to my house or meet up half way...................... -

Yup, standard PB 62 from late 80s early 90s, hootenanny, that neck plate seen quite a few before, the serial number under the made in Japan will be one letter 6 numbers. Probably non export.

Chorus with page 1 allround half way round and a cut on 400hz on page 2. Near enough for the 1st hour of pratting about whilst I try to figure out how to use it.

Sussed with the aid of a MS-60B, thanks folks. Mind it's the only effect I've managed to figure out & no idea how to save it, or put it on one of the empty numbers after the phase/hintofphil/owl sorta stuff 😂
-
Yeah, but what about the GELF I ask?
-
Like yer style Jack me lad 😁 No I don't have any effects, never used any but if I can get something for this one piece, I'll use it. And sell it when I get fired after 2 gigs 😭
-
I've never used any effects pedals before @Happy Jack I don't really understand how that would help get the kind of sound or "feel" that the guitarist is looking for?

Sorry, playing one note like a metronome for 2.5 minutes before vocals come in is a challenge to my aging concentration! Oooh, thanks for that Gareth, don't know if I dare, I get tongue tied conversing with famous peeps, especially ones that did a mouse dance on TOGWT 😲😚 Mind. LOVE that Explorer, looks Washburn, 80's.

Hope somebody can help. I've been lucky enough to get some gigs with a great band. They are very busy & the bassist wants some weekends off & I'm delighted to do them. They don't rehearse so I'm working the stuff out myself. The guitarist wants me to play the linked below keyboard line on bass. I'm struggling as he wants it playing C# HO D D D, where as I'm struggling to get away from thinking (8ths) DDDD Anyway, any ideas on a possible effect to get my P sounding like the link below (don't listen to anymore than 30 seconds, you will lose the will to live!) BUGGER, I've just listened to it again, it's a didgereedoo 🤣

A quick snap of my now completely passive (& filthy it appears 😚) Elite Jazz. Ki0Gon passive loom, the previous active/passive switch is now series/parallel & it plays & sounds wonderful.

Can't believe it's over 2 years since Dan & I last did some kind of hoss trade. At one stage we were meeting up about every 3 months. Anyway, when dealing with Dan, you know you are going to get terrific gear with a lovely & decisive bloke. That's why I have done maybe half a dozen deals with him. World class & a pleasure to deal with. Anytime you want a chat fella, all the best!
