Hi Chop have a look at guitarnuts.com. They give a lot of detail about strat wiring and (if I remember correctly) also go into the log and linear topics as well. Also, maybe contact Nordstrands ? hope that helps T

Sounds like someone doing a last minute dep all right. Two listens to the song and 1, 2, 3, 4............ T

You would be very welcome indeed !!! I for one wouldn't mind a tour of that topic at all. Can't speak for anyone else, but I'd like to hear this. I'm sure more suggestions and ideas from anyone else that would like bring something to the day would be welcome. A big THANK YOU LENNY T

Welcome to a new way of looking at music and the fun end of the band. Please tell us if it's growing on you and why good luck with it T

Had the Starlicks video he had out in the 80s and played it til it died. Much prefer him too MK or the other slappers. BB If anyone has a dvd copy of said video would be v interested[/quote] +1 if anyone has a dvd copy. I lent mine out and never got it back T

Molan's on the case and in the act of finalising the details with that school. Unless anyone objects, I'd like to give Molan a little extra time to sort out the details. Once that's done, we'll vote. T

I'd like to shake your hand for posting that Looking at you reminds me that there are photos of me lying around somewhere, just like that, same age group too. We could have swapped bands and still fit in. I still have my bass from that era as well. Same shape, but with VOX on the tailplate. Short scale and very quick. Thank you for the trip down amnesia lane T

looking increasing likely it's going to go to Deptford folks. any luck molan ? T

What a lovely pair ! (I seem to remember that having a different meaning when I was younger) T

is that a korean ?

PM'd you T

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='813961' date='Apr 21 2010, 05:15 PM']I'm likely to be selling my Yamaha BEX, hollowbody (also has piezo for 'that' sound) so keep your eyes on the for sale section. Not quite a £1k bass but tbh for a couple hundred it'd give a few expensive basses a run for their money! [/quote] There's something quite appealing about that in a vintage way. very nice. T

[quote name='molan' post='810751' date='Apr 18 2010, 09:16 PM']Shall I just ask for availability for any Sunday in June?[/quote] Sounds like a good place to start. In an ideal world we won't be snookered by availability. Then again, in that ideal world we would be using the wembley stage the London bass bash. Perhaps that's one we could plan for the 2012 London bash, seeing as how the world is coming to lunch at our place that year. T

That should come with a GAS warning T

That stage could be helpful for a masterclass amongst other things Look forward to hearing from you on this one Molan T

It's now time for the final call for nominees for the London Bass bash venue, a little later than originally planned I admit. In the absence of anyone raising strenuous objections, I'll close nominations for the venue on Saturday 24th April. At this stage, can anyone that nominates a venue please confirm that the venue is available and give some ideas around the likely the expected circumstances of the day,which will help with the estimation of finance and support. On the weekend of 24th April, I'll post a voting board for the duration of one week, the standard format so far. [u][/u]Raffle[u][/u] Is there general support for a raffle ? If so, can people give some indication of bringing something. Doesn't even have to be too specific if you don't want it to be. The important thing is that you bring something for the raffle on the day if you say you are going to do so. [u][/u]Masterclass[u][/u] Nominations / suggestions / volunteers welcome. It's time to make this happen folks. Look forward to meeting you all T

Or is it a sign that the sale price of second hand guitar stuff in general has dive bombed ? T

Must admit I wonder about this what's it all about Alfie ? T
