  1. [quote name='neepheid' post='725255' date='Jan 26 2010, 03:06 PM']If you do go down the bridge replacement route, let me know as I'd take the original off your hands - a couple of the grub screws in mine are broken and have to be turned by pliers - not ideal! Also if you do find somewhere to obtain a bridge or the parts thereof, let me know.[/quote] I bet they're in a better state than mine are man. I wouldnt wish them upon anyone
  2. Mine is a G-1 sliding pickup version. Tuners are good strings are good too. I think its the bridge if its anything. No one seems to make a direct replacement bridge for it though. I dont fancy drilling holes in it if it can be helped.
  3. Hi guys. Do we have any grabber players/owners amoung us apart from me? I'm having massive tuning issues with mine. Seems it will only stay in tune in a practice room. One hint of an audience and it comes over all wobbly. I know grabbers are prone to this but does anyone have a quick fix? Any fix at all would do. Before you ask yes it has been set up recently.
  4. She doesnt have her case. she has a few non origingal parts (switches) and I've sanded the gloss off the back of the neck. shes in fine working order and is a terrific players instrument but shes not much of a looker. just to warn you
  5. how much would a T-40 have to be 1980? i have a non rail pickuped one in natural
  6. Ampeg SVT Classic 04 model. The SVT CL is a lovely amp, Very simple in design and user friendly, also fairly cheap to maintain. Has new set of Svetlana matched power valves and JJ drivers. Plastic valve holders have been replaced with ceramics and the amp has been looked after by a local expert and has been treated with respect all of its life. There is one tear in the tolex across the bottom of the front panel. Im really only looking to trade. I want something fairly light weight in comparison with plenty of power and preferably a valve preamp. MarkBass, SWR, Aguilar, Trace Elliot, Genz Benz. Im pretty game for anything of equal value and professional quality. Im not 100% what I want to be honest. I don't know a great deal about the market I am potentially going into either. Will post pics as soon as I take them. £800 is what they generally go for off evil bay. Postage is probably not a great idea. So collection from Bridgend/Cardiff area is preferred. Would travel for trade or drop off for petrol money. *edit* amp will be serviced and given a clean bill of health before it changes hands. Cheers Ash
  7. Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the sky Not because no one can do it justice, but because it is cursed. It ends the careers of everyone who touches it.
  8. sh*t the bed. I really like that. I just hate the schecter headstock. also I hope maple is a fretboard option.
  9. Shed "hot n dangerous" (cocco specials) with standard Jazz passive electronics give me all the bite and balls I need. Sans amp BDDI provides extra drive and 8 10s create the wall of noise I like to refer to as "the delicate sound of thunder". I like its plug and play simplicity. I dont think this will ever change from my recording tone. Depending on my mood my Trace Elliot T-bass or my 2eq 'ray might take the place of my Jazz. I have too many basses....
  10. Thats a really early SB too if im not mistaken? it doesnt have the scrolling on the headstock
  11. I really like your S2 OTPJ.
  12. When did the bigger bridge get axed?
  13. question, was birdseye maple an option or was it the standard for a certain era of stingrays?
  14. There was a 4 string overwater original in black in speed music in cardiff when it was still open. It was marked up for £350 and was the first overwater Id ever seen. I wanted it but alas I could not afford it . the one that got away? I think so
  15. I have a wallet and a strat shaped belt buckle
  16. I feel the GAS setting in, I just dont have the readdies
  17. Im glad they put a chrome cover back on the battery compartment too.
  18. Jesus they are nice. Whats the price on these? im taking it they're more than a standard 2eq?
  19. is there a 'ray 4 in this series too? I hope so
  20. hopefully Ill have an adition to this thread by the end of the week. A black, black, (birdseye) maple 2 eq
  21. does my T-bass count?
  22. From one bearded T-40 player to another. I really hope this goes to a good home, its a f***ing beauty
  23. going on the features it doesn't have a great deal in common with either. IMO a P or a J bass is defined by its pickup configuration, body shape and neck profile, (obviously these all contribute to its tone), this has none of the features of either by the looks of it. That isnt to say that you couldnt get a P or a J tone (or at least something simular out of it) using its onboard electronics but I wouldn't say it falls under either category.
