  1. [quote name='Skezza' post='912153' date='Aug 1 2010, 07:26 PM']These are advertised in a couple of place on tnet less than your price am I missing something has it been upgraded in any way is there a hardcase skez[/quote] um, not sure why you're quoting me, I'm not the seller!?
  2. [quote name='Schnozzalee' post='912087' date='Aug 1 2010, 06:12 PM']...they're less than that new. A fine bass regardless.[/quote] Interestingly no online retailers are currently selling them though. I've just been googling these & all the cheaper priced listed ones aren't stating stock levels. The main dealers simply aren't listing it at all. I wonder if Fender are discontinuing them? These are fantastic basses & I love mine.

    Hello

    Welcome to Basschat Guy
  7. Hey Terry - Welcome to Basschat. I use the same cabs, although rarely together
  8. I've had keyboard parts clash on a couple of occasions but I get them to move - I was here first!
  9. very vintage... I like
  10. I don't mind the occasional bass solo. Being a big fan of The Byrds, here's Skip Battin in action
  11. We played Bristol on Thursday where we gave a passionate performance but I'd had too much Guinness - my night was made by 2 of the singer's friends calling me "the cool one in the band". I haven't had that for a few years so a nice ego stroke. Last night was Maidenhead where we gave a solid (but hungover) performance. A great 48hrs!
  12. It would have been an original but I couldn't tell you what it was!
  13. I assume you've had it set up properly for this? The tension on the truss rod will be a lot different which could be part of the problem
  14. I'm with musicguard who came recommended. Nothing has gone wrong yet (touch wood) so I don't know if they are any good
  15. I've come on leaps & bounds as a player in the last few years so I'm a lot more comfortable being described as a musician. However I really don't mind
  16. Cool, thanks And guess what is suddenly in stock on Amazon? Yep... [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fender-Precision-Basses-Detlef-Schmidt/dp/1574242547/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=IZW5LWOAL4MXL&colid=8JLMPZ0Z4E4A"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fender-Precision-B...id=8JLMPZ0Z4E4A[/url]

  18. It doesn't take much to make a big difference, does it? I love Hercules stands & it's great to hear they have good customer service. Other companies take note!
  19. [quote name='Clarky' post='908734' date='Jul 28 2010, 11:01 PM']Not sure that I have ever owned a genuinely bad bass.[/quote] Same here. I try to give them a pretty heavy roadtest prior to purchase. It can be dangerous buying online as you are going in blind. I was a bit dissapointed with an Epiphone Flying V which I bought online. Lesson learned.
  20. Cool news, nice one
  21. Ouch! Thakfully I bought all my Ampeg gear ages ago I've never bought from them but I always thought Guitar Guitar were pretty competitive though?
  22. [quote name='BurritoBass' post='903815' date='Jul 24 2010, 10:10 AM']The new ones on sale measure 160cm as I asked an EBay seller & are now padded to take the weight of a P-bass more easily Needless to say that seller got a sale![/quote] The seller was wrong. Mines 56" or 142cm so a bit shorter but still long enough to look as cool as fish
  23. Best of luck
  24. [quote name='Bassassin' post='907390' date='Jul 27 2010, 05:53 PM'][/quote] I had a mate with one of these. I used it on a few sessions I did for him, sounded great but not to my tastes looks wise. He bought it for £80 considerably under the going rate & when he came to sell it on he couldn't get rid of it! Crazy
  25. I've imported about 3 bodies, a neck & a whole bass. Bearing in mind the Godin A4 bass is about a grand you will pay a bit. They then add a ridiculous admin charge too. If the deal is good then go for it but bear in mind taxes. You get a letter first with the required fees & can pay over the phone
