  1. Pete bought a TC faux Ebow device from me. No fuss, all good. Thanks John
  2. My TC RS212 has gotten a bit grubby in places, so I’d like to touch up or fill in where the paint is chipped. Don’t want to buy a whole pot of Tuff cab paint, and I can’t find the tuff cab touch up mini pots in stock. Any suggestions on something black to just to do the job. Thanks for any suggestions. Cheers John
  3. Sonicake Octaver. Boxed used once. with boxed PSU used once £25 posted. Or collect/meet up Bath/Bristol
  4. Enjoying watching the 2012 BBC performance. Great band, DB looking like he’s enjoying himself, his voice is terrific and the audience are loving it. Sadly let down by the music stand to his right. Amateur.
  5. It’s all good, just wanted to vouch for the neck. Can be death by association sometimes. Like to know the manufacturer though.
  6. As the only owner and player of this neck, I can vouch for its “unshite-ness”. I chose it over some NOS tokai necks the shop had.
  7. Yup describes this neck! The shop in Gloucester had a number of NOS necks and this one had the 2 miscolour patches in the rear, so assumed that’s why they weren’t attached to a body.
  8. Some more pics. The colour is more of an aged cream white. I’ve removed the pickguard cover now btw. I might be interested in selling the loaded body as there’s a P style body that the neck would suit. I was going to buy but had to pull out sorry @hooky_lowdown Or might just keep it as a back up or for some 80’s slap! 😂
  9. The neck was NOS I picked up in a shop. No decal no holes drilled. Here’s it after I dropped some tuners in before sending off to be put together. More pics to follow.
  10. My balls do tend to dwarf other objects.
  11. The neck had that truss rod end when I bought it. Which is why it made good sense to use it for the body. Like I said, I will post more pictures and measurements when I get back home. Thanks 😎
  12. Anyone else waiting for a Parcelforce delivery that’s overdue? Waiting for a NBD. 3 days overdue. The tracking showing it was picked up and delivered to Hub, but notification stating that it’s stuck there for a number of reasons around staffing/strikes/wrong kind of snow on the lines. The seller is more anxious than I am. Nothing I can do about it, and I’ve discovered that anger has no influence over delivery speed.
  13. Wow, that’s some dump run then!
  14. 😂😂😂😂
  15. That’s my wife’s pictured nightmare of me returning every time I say, “I’m just popping into town for some new strings”.
  16. Cheers @Al Krow I sourced a SmoothHound system in the end. The guitarist has the same system and it’s working well so far.
  17. Could be interested in this. Logistics might be the issue though. I’m in Bath but work in Poole once a week. Maybe a relay?
  18. The trick EB possibly missed was not making a “Flea” bass that was an affordable alternative to a Ray. Maybe a Flea SUB or the like. Most of the Flea fanboys I knew were teenagers who couldn’t afford an actual Stingray.
  19. @tredders I used to teach music in prisons and we were always needing decent instruments. Billy Bragg donated some through his Jail Guitar Doors charity, which was really helpful. Whatever people’s thoughts/attitudes are towards the “residents” and the crimes they commit, Music is a powerful way of teaching some important life skills such as listening, deferring to others, being creative, performance, confidence, team work, patience, perspective taking, etc. If you have a prison near you, get in touch with them maybe? Education dept or chaplaincy are usually where us Care Bears work. Ps I’ve seen a fair bit of criminal bass playing in my time. 😂
