  1. So the LED's have been threaded though the neck as usual, but not connected to the body/no mods or routs to the body? Cheers Si
  2. That was you was it! Good buy! Good luck with the sale! Si
  3. I've got a Fender Deluxe Jazz up for possible trade, check the link in my signature if you're interested Cheers Si
  4. Very interested in the pics! Hows it the bass routed for the LED battery? And do you know at least if the pickups are USA/vintage fenders of any sort? Si
  5. That Stringray is a bit Schmexual And the G&L is beautiful, to bad its a 5string lol You interested in trades? I'm in Swindon a fair bit for my girlfriend Cheers Si
  6. *Cries slightly* In one way i hope you still have this in a month of two, but i obviously wish you luck in selling it lol Have a bump Si
  7. Newtone strings can hand wind you a slightly higher tension string which would mean you can have it in Drop D tuning with whatever gauge you like, and still have the same action and impact as standard tuning, although they'd feel a bit tight if you tuned back up to standard again. (do you mean just Drop D, or Drop D Standard, so DADG or DGCF?)? I use Newtones exclusively for standard tuning, and also a high tension set for Drop C standard. And the price, about the same as a set of Elites....delivered, nice Si p.s. most think that increased tension is caused by thicker gauge strings, thats true to a small degree, but the majority of tension is controlled by the core of the string. Newtone can increas the size of the core to suit your tuning, potentially allowing you to use thin gauges for low tunings if you don't want fat strings.
  8. Just so people know the model, is it the one with two jazz pickups or two soapbars? I had 2 of the soapbar 5 strings (the higher model) a couple of years ago, very nice basses, the one i brought new i sold for a £300 loss. The one i brought 2nd hand i sold for the same price albeit after having paid £50 for a defret. Nice basses, but stuff like this just doesn't hold its value in the slightest good luck mate Si
  9. Man, i wish someone would offer a G&L 4 string up for my Jazz Deluxe *hint hint* Si
  10. No i meant, how do you shorten it to one syllable like sever to 'sev' Si
  11. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='54704' date='Sep 3 2007, 01:02 PM']Martin Petersen at the Bass Gallery gets a small firm who refinish roulette wheels to do his basses, so he tells me.[/quote] So that's what the 20% price hike was for!! Si
  12. what do you reduce sixteen down to? Si
  13. Its funny you should talk about vocalising things Mikey. Quite often when we're bored in the band van (especially on tour) we'd practice polyrhythms by each picking a different set of words and seeing how long we could go before someone messed up Our faves were: What-is-the-beef = 4 against Cheese-on-toast = 3 against Un-i-ver-sit-y = 5 anyway, quite fun lol Si
  14. I'm sure i could throw them in Si
  15. PM'd Si
  16. But i've never seen how a ring provides anymore commitment then honest words!? Agreed. BACK ON TOPIC Si
  17. [quote name='Shockwave' post='57480' date='Sep 8 2007, 06:56 PM']Heh, 4 months ago i might have been interested! But alas, I have never played a Jazz i got on with , Plus unless it was a status or a rick i would prefer 5 strings and above I may have to go custom shop or warmoth to get the jazz i want! (P bass neck) And yeah, She said after being together for 5 years its about time Have to pop her the question by the 22nd of November or else! I am gonna hire out a hot air balloon and propose there Its going to be a LONG engagement.[/quote] Thats cool dude, pity, cos its almost a kinda deep dark pink lol Not to hijack the thread but "5 years, its about time"?? and "gotta propose or else"?, that whole middle line makes it sound alll wrong IMO. I know people who have been together and extremely happy for 15 years without needing to get married. And i've never seen the point in LOOONG engagements, just love each other till you can afford to get married then do it straight away. Don't get rushed into it, you're only 22 dude. But anyway lol Good luck with spending your wad Si
  18. Engagement ring???....crazy fecker! Good Luck! I got a nice USA Fender Jazz Deluxe [topic="5159"]HERE[/topic]. PM me if you're interested in sorting something perhaps. What do you have to trade? Si
  19. Have some pics :-D [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] Cheers Si
  20. Aight and ting!! Seetickets.com for the RB goodness! Si
  21. So how is one 4ohm 2x10 gonna help? won't that mean he'll just be putting out 250watts, needs another 4ohm cab to get the full 500 Or can u run it bridged? Si
  22. Anyone in the Wiltshire area go along!! I might be there in my capacity as Holly's groupie Si
  23. Gonna be there with bells on! This will be the second time seeing him this year!! I'm feeling spoiled Anyone else going? Si
  24. How can an amp be more efficient running through 1 cab at 4 ohms, if you're running 2 cabs at 8ohms, therefore running the amp down to 4ohms, then its exactly the same resistance and power output. It would also sound louder with two cabs as you're pushing more air through more speakers. For example if you were running your amp with one 4ohm 2x10 and the same amp with two 8ohm 2x10's, i would expect the amps efficiency to be exactly the same!! But i would expect the larger rig to 'sound' louder Not that i know ANYTHING about amps really lol Si
