  1. ooooo - that's nice, that is. Very, very nice.
  2. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1464041557' post='3056110'] You knew this was going to happen, didn't you..? [/quote] No serial number sticker - send it back!!!!
  3. [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1464033950' post='3056016'] Won't be valid, you didn't drive it for 39 years and leave it outside in all weathers [/quote] ...or give it to Parcelfarce:
  4. [quote name='Staggering on' timestamp='1463963296' post='3055409'] Sorry,I just don't get it.Too old I guess.Then again I don't get severely distressed/ripped jeans either.Like I said in another thread about reliced basses, I might buy a "real" reliced instrument but not a fake one.Advertising and marketing win again,just like "distressed" new furniture.Different strokes....whatever.... [/quote] There's a F1 thread and a football thread on BassChat - both sports I hate. Somehow I've managed not to go on to those threads and tell them this 'cos that's just pointless and rude. As The Staple Singers (a very together group) sang: [size=4][i][color=#292929][font=proxnov-reg, arial, sans-serif]If you disrespect anybody that you run in to[/font][/color] [color=#292929][font=proxnov-reg, arial, sans-serif]How in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you[/font][/color] [color=#292929][font=proxnov-reg, arial, sans-serif]If you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand, y'all[/font][/color] [color=#292929][font=proxnov-reg, arial, sans-serif]Just get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing.[/font][/color][/i][/size] [color=#292929][font=proxnov-reg, arial, sans-serif]Just a thought.[/font][/color]
  5. The 70s were great. I was born in 1960 so Glam Rock was my intro to music and punk was my later teenage years. I got to see lots of great bands (Thin Lizzy, Sabbath, Quo etc) - a great, carefree time to be a teenager.

    [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1463407619' post='3051081'] Can I use a bass body to make the charcoal? [/quote] Only after you've smoked the grass!

    I made a 3-pole filter kit.....
  8. I agree wholeheartedly with 2 & 3.
  9. All 10 of us had a great time, dressing up, having fun, eating a lovely meal (thanks MrsB) and drinking too much beer/ wine. Not to mention the Friday evening in the pub and the Sunday morning walk round the lake. The music was incidental to being with old friends and enjoying life. The music's rubbish - the atmosphere is brill. There's an off button for those who'd rather watch their cat.

    'Fraid not. But on my amp there's a 6dB pad to 'tame' active basses, so I don't think the buffer makes any difference, it's still 'just' an output signal that needs attenuating.

    Here's a 0, -10, -20 switched circuit.....
  12. You could play some songs by TRV on it.
  13. Unless you want to pay for the 'big-name' p/ups, then GFS have a very good range of quality tele pick-ups [url="http://www.guitarfetish.com/Tele-Sized_c_580.html"]here[/url].

    I find the T-rex style to be best.
  15. [quote name='tonewheels' timestamp='1462740288' post='3045414'] I spent ages trying all the current Class D crop and the MB Fusion 500 was by far the best to pair with a couple of One 10s. Collective jaws dropped down the pub the other night when I casually chucked into the conversation "I don't miss the SVT stack at all, you know". Many many spilled pints and dropped bacon sandwiches to be cleared up. [/quote] Ah..... wet wipes!
  16. OK, found it. The comparison starts at 9:30 [media]http://youtu.be/Uc4rj6EhB7M[/media]
  17. TC have a comparison of all the versions of the BG250 on their web-site somewhere. I can't be bothered to look for it as the bottle of wine is going down nicely. If you can't find it I'll look around tomorrow.
  18. That looks really good - I'm looking forward to one of your deservedly-famous reviews.
  19. I used hot glue - the glue gun and sticks jobbie. Filled the gaps but is undo-able.
  20. Hello from mid-Wales. Llandrindod Wells..... where it's just stopped snowing!
  21. [quote name='Bobthedog' timestamp='1461413788' post='3034435'] ... if not your spelling. :-) NB: this is a joke based on the irony of the thread title and not meant as a slight on the OP's character. [/quote] That's fine. I did fess up to it as soon as I saw it with the edit at the bottom....... and I appreciate the irony.
