  2. And you put this up when I was on my way to buy a FSR 60's Classic Jazz RI. If you'd put it up 24 hours earlier it would have been mine
  3. [quote name='Damonjames' timestamp='1482798441' post='3202828'] Hi Karl, I've not experience the "walking bass head" problem with my gear since I ditched my orange terrorbass 1000 and matamp 610, which occasionally would get bored with my crap playing and try to leave the room in disgust. It mostly only did it if the floor was a little uneven though. I was going to just use an occy strap ( it sure if that's what they call them here, but it's a bungy coats with a hook at either end), and just go from one handle on the cab up and over the head and onto the other handle and just let the rubber feet on the amp do the rest. [/quote] Wonder if it's because I have to do a lot of walking bass lines now Damo
  4. Think fluffo is looking for one of these in the "wanted" section.
  5. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1482885869' post='3203383'] Did it [i]sell[/i] at £600, though? [/quote] Don't be daft Jon. Now a year or so later they are trying to get £340 for it.
  6. £10 EACH , including UK postage (£11 if you MUST pay by PAINPal). Please check correct plate for your bass. Ta, From CV 5O's Precision, badly sprayed by me. SOLD.

  8. Still got the original hard case with it Tommo?
  9. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1482760829' post='3202553'] Interesting and very strange-looking, certainly. But £850 for what is by any measure cheapo communist-era East German tat? Contender for the most spectacularly ambitious overpricing yet seen on Ebay, surely! [/quote] Perhaps, but I saw a Futurama up at £600 not so long back. I put mine in the skip, they really were that sh*te.
  10. http://www.jacksinstrumentservices.com/ If I ever manage to get ice/agave blue, maple P, I will be asking for a claret one.
  11. [quote name='itsmedunc' timestamp='1482710710' post='3202352'] Karl, lets not do that. Remember we are British after all. Chocks away and all that... [/quote] Listen Dunc, the last time I took my shirt off somebody called Greenpeace
  12. So a few folk do think like me. That's comforting . The only cab I would replace the Schroeder 212 (+titanium bullet horn) with is a Barefaced SuperTwelve.
  13. IMO these basses are actually pure dead astonishing. I played one in a shop 2 years ago. For 2 hours. The neck is just so fluid. The pick up is amazingly versatile. They are very light. Just such a great sounding, easy to play, great looking, simple bass. The ONLY reason I did not buy the one I tried was the shop manager went out for a long time and his no. 2 would not authorise £600 trade in for an excellent US Precision. . Oh, and the shop was 250 miles from where I live. Still rankles to this day. The one that got away.
  14. I've been following this girl's journey northwards this year. She is still tempting and has worked her way 200 miles closer. Ho hum, what to do
  15. Bah, humbucker All the very best all
  16. Iv'e PM'd you (on a different matter) on Facebook Andy. Have a bump for this excellent amp.
  17. Over the last couple of years Damon has become a good friend. Top bloke to deal with it and a really honest, warm hearted guy. Deal with utmost confidence folks.
  18. Been around for a long time. Ask on Rickenfakers on Facebook, a few there have had/got BaCHs.
  19. Meh, some of us were gigging Ibbys before the OP had picked a bass up [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/001_zpsrvzbg7ay.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/001_zpsrvzbg7ay.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
  20. Excellent stuff Bill and Phil, many thanks. Not going to worry too much about my Markbass and Schro, I don't do owt daft and they are way more powerful than I REALLY need. At least to my ears
  21. Interesting there appears to be a bit of a resurgence in Ashdown love.
  22. [quote name='ashsagar' timestamp='1482315665' post='3199423'] I'd like to be able to sell some stuff to make some money so I could buy this :/ [/quote] Amen to that!
  23. [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1482313738' post='3199383'] Thanks to all, glad it strikes a chord The straplock is situated a little further forward on the end of the heel, which, with the Ultralights, is enough to get it to balance nicely. The Lakland neck was quartersawn, it was just the fretboard which was very highly figured, so I was surprised it was so unstable. Both my other Shukers are solid as a rock, though the winner for Never Even Going Out Of Tune is my Dingwall I will Karl - it's somewhere in Germany...let me dig the link out... Here you go: [url="http://www.crazyparts.de/pickup-making-parts/pickupcovers/misc/gibson-thunderbird-pu-cover-chrome.php"]http://www.crazypart...over-chrome.php[/url] They do the rings on there, too... [/quote] Brilliant Muzz, ta fella. To think, all these years I could have had a good looking TBird (hate the black plastic pup covers, fickle, moi?)
