  1. My gf LOVES the Lindert baritone! Apparently she saw the fist headstock on one from ebay a while ago and feel in love Si
  2. Gonna watch this with great interest! Si
  3. [quote]Hi Si If no-one wants the body, PUPs etc as a whole I'll certainly split. Pics tomorrow with any luck[/quote] If you were to go down this route, I'd possibly be interested in the bridge pending a price Cheers mate Si
  4. Yeah maybe some close-ups of the bridge, mybe 99ster and WoT can help us out lol! Would you sell the bridge separately from the body at all? depending on it's authenticity obviously Cheers mate Si
  5. I have the white version of this bass. I purchased it from here just so I had a working 5 string, and I haven't been disappointed, sooo much bass for the money Wide spacing (standard 4 string jazz spacing), but as a result, it doesn't feel alien at all if you're mainly a 4 player! Si
  6. I assume you've used the (original?) bridge on the current warmoth fretless? Si
  7. Yeah was a really fun day! The Sam Kelly band was fantastic! Nice to meet you Jack and I'll be seeing you next sunday, thanks again for lunch! Si
  8. Cool, I'll watch the F1 Qualifying then leave! Nice Si
  9. I'd probably drive, got a few roads I could park in lol Will give you a text if I go! What time you heading down? Si
  10. I might pop along, it's only 20mins down the road for me!! Where in ealing is it? We can talk about barefaced cabs haha Si
  11. Saw him maybe 4 years ago at Shepherds Bush Empire just after 'Trouble' came out! Was brilliant, although not very talkative lol, he had a different bass player then, playing what looked like an Azola style EUB. Si
  12. Just out of interest, did you remove the neck to see if there was a serial number there? Si
  13. Yeah I guess sending either a Midget or a Big Baby round the opposite way would solve the problem and provide people with some context between the ranges! I'm in the same boat as Crez, pretty full on gigs wise. Good stuff Si
  14. All sounds good to me, and how long will people have it for? Cos if it's a week each, this is like a 7month thing so far....which is fine, but we should probably be quite strict about it Si
  15. [quote name='wateroftyne' post='543823' date='Jul 18 2009, 10:12 AM']Not here... we've lost a few venues but it's more down to the economic climate, I think.[/quote] +1 Si
  16. Shame you have to get rid of this mate! It's a beauty I've owned a Jazz Deluxe, and I much prefer my passive jazzes! How are the injuries? Si
  17. I play in drop C standard, so C, F, Bb, Eb with 45-105 strings with a low action (low for that tuning anyway....and I play hard) It's more about the core of the string than the gauge of it, mine are custom wound with a thicker core giving more tension. Higher tension obviously allows you to downtune whilst retaining an action that is playable and not buzzy, I doubt I'd be able to tune standard with them, but then I have other basses for that Newtone, who makes my strings, can cater a set of strings for any tuning you want, any tension/gauge combination. Oh and they're around the same price as a set of Elites/Rotos.....just take 3 weeks to get to you lol Good luck Si
  18. Now come on guys....lets not hijack the thread! anyway...........the '73 is the closest thing I have to a pension at the moment haha Si
  19. I hope Alex is plotting the tour route out haha Si
  20. Very very nice! If I had the bunce, I'd be PM'ing! Have a bump on me Si
  21. Looks very similar to the wear on my '73 (ex WoT's), so i'd say it was fairly genuine Si
  22. Bluegrass mate! Si
  23. Very cool! That is a biiiiig rout isn't it........get a Darkstar in there! Si
  24. Higher & Higher by Jackie Wilson is a great example of what you're talking about, as well as a lot of Kool & The Gang Si
  25. Am definitly up for trying one at some gigs! I'm in High Wycombe, South Bucks, so could pickup anywhere near like Reading, Oxford, Watford, West London etc etc. It could probably even work out that enough chatters around the country want to try them who are in driving distance of each other, creating a sort of chain pickup as it were!?
