  1. [quote name='thisnameistaken' post='1002937' date='Oct 27 2010, 07:57 PM'] Congratulations on purchasing a cab that can produce brown notes![/quote]
  2. Thanks guys, I'll give all the suggestions a go. Had worried about damp cloth Bill, but that's reassuring. John
  3. Cleaning a recently acquired used PJ Briefcase, I noticed behind the grill was a bit grubby. Took the grill off and the driver cones are covered in dried mud.! Any ideas on how to clean it off? Whilst I'm happy with the sound of the combo, I don't think mud on the speakers is "helpful". Ta, John
  4. Bought a used one here, took delivery last week. Sounds great, but every time I turn it off, it "farts". When I turn it back on it's fine and sounds great even "maxed out". And gigged it Saturday night and my usually fussy guitarists loved the sound. Contacted previous owner and Phil Jones, but had no replies. Anyone other briefcase owners had the same noise? Also I've taken the front grill off today to give it a bit of a clean as it looked a bit grubby, and noticed there's dried mud on the speakers....any ideas of how best to clean that off?? Thanks, John
  5. [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' post='1001696' date='Oct 26 2010, 08:42 PM']Why did you get rid of your black one then?[/quote] Twice J, twice I bought and sold the black'n both to buy P basses which I subsequently sold on!! I'm counting to ten on this one, as I really don't have the money and don't need it either....but they just call to me, the little minx's Might end up selling the PJ briefcase.
  6. [quote name='munkonthehill' post='1001676' date='Oct 26 2010, 08:29 PM']i just spoke with the mrs, if I want this it means I have to get rid of my jag or my bongo!!!!!! It's all yours old slapper. If your mrs throws you out though, I have a spareroom that you and your status can come and stay:)[/quote]
  7. La Bella Flats, Siggery Road?
  8. I'm in Dorset, but would love this for my son. Would you post? John
  9. Buy it, buy it now M.O.T.H. .....................I can't afford a divorce! Seriously good bass for that money...flattest profile neck I've ever played, so easy.
  10. Oh mannn! Why are you tempting me like this B, you know these are my weakness!!?? PM'd
  11. Rob bought a Spector NS94. Very patient while I tried to sort out a machine head issue. Anyway great, easy transaction, good fella to deal with. Yeah Bob, gig was fun, as usual at Eli's. Cheers, john
  12. Gigged my recently acquired Phil Jones briefcase last night. The quartet is made up of 2 guitarists, 1 singer and moi on DB. Playing mainly swing/Django stuff. Thought it might be a little under powered, so I was prepared for DI'ing in PA. But the little blighter rocked, loads of bottom end. I placed it against the wall, as suggested and it blew me away. Probably wouldn't be sufficient with a bigger band, with drums though. But clear precise sound.... A very happy slapper! John
  13. Price Reduction Bump [b]£80 pair posted, or £50 each posted.[/b] Paypal, cash, bank transfer?
  14. Thanks fellas! What a numpty, it's so obvious now I've removed it. Ok, so now to get a replacement. John
  15. I bought a Spector NS94 and the bass extender doesn't work, not worried as I would never use it. I've tried to remove the machine head from the headstock. But the screw head that holds it to the rear of the headstock is completely covered by the extender part. It has a "cap", which if I could get off I could get to the screw head, but I can't remove the cap at at all. Very annoying! Problem is that the machine head has developed an annoying rattle due to the extender not fitting properly. Any clues before I take this to a tech and spend a load of money I don't have? Many thanks John
  16. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='966925' date='Sep 24 2010, 05:02 PM']When I go to Tesco, I want the bread to be in the usual place. I don't want the manager to 'challenge' me and put it somewhere 'original' and 'different', like next to the ice cream.[/quote] Will you PLEASE speak to the manager at the Shaftesbury branch....we get given a map/compass and a list of "clues"...it's demeaning
  17. As title suggests. Great for your half rack tuner/fx/wireless. Bit grubby where previous owner put double sided tape on (presumably didn't have screws). But works fine. [b]SOLD[/b]
  18. As title suggests. Gone!
  19. I've just taken delivery of one from here. Great tone. Put fretted, fretless, double bass and acoustic guitar through it and they all sounded wicked. The low end, particularly at distance was amazing. I'm gigging it with the quartet this Saturday night, can't wait.
  20. [quote name='Randy_Marsh' post='996118' date='Oct 21 2010, 04:35 PM']Any chance I can buy the knobs off the pre-amp?[/quote] Hi you can have the black ones, which I think are the original ones? Make a donation to BC and they're yours.
  21. [quote name='colda' post='996170' date='Oct 21 2010, 05:18 PM']is this the shallow or regular depth version? - if shallow, I'm interested [/quote] 36cm depth, shallow unit.
  22. Once again, hassle free deal. Thanks John, John
