I have a Laney all-valve 15 watt guitar amp. It has been a good servant over the years. About five years ago a friend re-valved the amp. For some reason it then had a background hum which it never had before. It is loud enough to be obtrusive. As I now exclusively play bass I just left it in the cupboard. My son however really likes the amp so I am trying to get it sorted. Anyone got any ideas what might be wrong.

There you go.

That’s great to know. Just need to find the right p bass.

I have an original Wizard Thumper which I’m looking to put into a Squier P bass sometime.

Sounds like the Squier VM 77 Jazz you were playing. I have come late to the party as I just bought my first Squier on these very forums. Mine is a VM 77 and it is exceptionally fine. It has been upgraded with pups and hardware but the neck and body are superb and every bit as good as the USA version. Squier are punching well above their weight these days. I am a very happy bunny.

Excellent. Many thanks!

Does anyone know anywhere that sells just the strap part of the new S-Locks? I like the strap part but am not crazy about the strap buttons. I'm trying to save a few bob and not end up with three or four sets of buttons that I don't need.

Just purchased an extremely nice Squier 77 VM Jazz from George. The bass is superb with some very nice upgrades to enhance an already fine instrument. George is a great guy to do business with. Comms are excellent and the bass was in my hands in mega-quick time. The packaging was also a work of art. George is a credit to Basschat!

Email is working ok. I’ll try another browser. Thanks.👍

Thanks chaps. I’ll try these things and hopefully get a result.

My Mac desktop is working rather strangely on safari. It won’t properly load things like Facebook and basschat. They either load as normal or the blue line at the top of the screen only comes along so far then stops and nothing else happens. I am running Mohave. Everything loads fine on my iPhone and iPad. Any thoughts anyone?

I have really tried to buy from the only music store in my city. However, they never have what I am looking for and show no interest in obtaining it for me. I now don't bother even going in for a look as it's pointless. The only other music store sells used gear at often silly prices as they are mostly commission sales which pushes the price up. Basschat is a far better place to buy which is where I get most of my stuff now.

I would specify. I wanted TI flats on the precision which he made for me and he was happy to oblige.

That's what we want to hear. Well done Bass Direct!
