    When living at a pub on Anglesey, what was left of Lieutenant Pigeon played our pub and let me join in on bass for Mouldy Old Dough. Can say I've played a number one song with a number one band.....technically

    Rickenbacker 4003

    Pow_22 replied to a topic in Bass Guitars

    Is there such a thing as a 4003s but with the varnished/laquered fingerboard? Id love a fireglo one with a varnished board. Only thing is some fireglo rics look quite 'sun bleached', i like the fireglo to be orangey red in the middle not almost mapleglo

      This will only end in bitter disappointment and/or a depleted bank account

      Or alternatively, it could be utter joy and you could end up wondering why you'd not gone there sooner! :D

    DHA VT1 EQ DI

    Pow_22 replied to Pow_22's topic in Effects

    Research so far suggests a Sennheiser radio mic case might fit but still searching round for others

    Cut for 4 in a row fender type headstock. Barely used, tried them for an hour, not my thing. Postage in UK included in price. **on closer look it looks like only the E is cut**

    Old thread resurrection - does anybody use a carry case for theirs? Something like a small peli case or maybe a radio mic case?

    GAS bass has sold so this is withdrawn for now.
  15. Pow_22
    Never thought I would actually do this but something has come up that has fired up a serious case of GAS. Here we have my Japanese 57RI P bass made in December of 1985 according to the pencil date on the neck butt. In my opinion the BEST P bass colour combo - two tone sunburst, gold anodised guard and maple board. It comes with the original white pickguard and pickups - currently the pickups in her are Toneriders but i do still have the originals for those into that sort of thing. Set up a while back at Jacks instrument repairs and currently sports the excellent and superb Elites Detroit flatwound strings. couple of small dings and the usual belt buckle rash on the back. I will dig out the luggage scales to answer the usual BC question. Don't see too many around at this age - most i see online are 90's ones. Depending on your 'vintage' this is either very Duck Dunn or Alex James I don't currently have a gig bag or case as this travels in my duo gig bag but if that's a deal breaker I can buy a cheapo one. As this is only on the block for something that has cropped up I'm not looking for trades at the moment. If I've overpriced I'm open to ONO offers The bass is based in Bolton but could do meets. Any further questions please shout.

    and to be fair their beer is absolutely f***in awful!

    Guess by small i mean something more 70's looking, big back plates - ideally the fender branded ones that i have on my 75 RI jazz would be perfect and in keeping with the 70's styling. Obviously im nit picking here

    Recently I've found myself picking my Jazz up much more than my P in my new band. I like the body size and the thin neck a little more so this has me looking round at other Jazzers and i came across this beauty https://www.coda-music.com/bass-guitars/fender-japan-ltd-international-colour-jazz-bass-sienna-sunburst.html Probably more than I'm willing to pay and the small tuners along with basswood body have me a little underwhelmed but the block and bound neck, 70's styling and THAT colour certainly made my wallet twitch. Seems they have been out for a few years but its the first ive seen of them. Any users on here want to chime in with their experience?

    Anyone spotted this on the crack coverters website? https://www.cashconverters.co.uk/shop/music-tv--video/musical-instruments/guitars--string-instruments/bass-guitar/047300072685
  20. Pow_22
    Also i note there are no pup or bridge cover holes, or thumbrest holes for that matter - is that normal on 80's fenders?
  21. Pow_22
    Not necessarily truly 'vintage' but what's everyone's thoughts on this tasty looking jazzer over at bass Bros:- https://bassbros.co.uk/product/1982-fender-jazz-bass/ Down as an '82 but the Fender serial lookup thingy comes up as a '78. Not seen a bounded dot neck before and as someone who is a recent jazz convert and looking for a nice older bass this is ticking a few boxes!

    Just to update. We had our first rehearsal with the spyder last night. Played a groundwound loaded Jazz bass into an Eden 4x10. I was worried at how much quieter the spyder seemed at home playing than my ABM400. However, once i had my sound dialed in - none of the shift buttons engaged, bass and treble boosted slightly and mids rolled off a little - and the jazz to 100% neck pickup, 25% bridge pickup and tone rolled off a little bit, it was glorious. Ive set the amp with the gain at around 75% and the volume at 12 oclock and it was nice, even, slightly growly and very beefy. Currently in its belly is a Tung Sol 12AX7 in v1 and a Sovtek 12AX7B in V2. As mentioned before these dont really do full on grit even with the gain maxed but it does have a lovely warm sound and IMHO a much clearer tone than the ABM

    So, i was selling my ABM 400 with the idea of going to a combo but a Spyder 330 came up locally at a decent price and peaked my memories of one i had years back. Now, these things are pretty quiet for supposed 300w at 4ohms - my ABM 400 is MILES louder but the core tone is lovely. A bit of a one trick pony with no much in the way of EQ but lovely nonetheless. I remember years ago i did a bit of valve swapping in my 550 combo and to be fair it did make quite a difference (better or worse is subjective). Was wondering if any members on here are regular spyder users - either the 550 or 330 - and has done any valve swapping? The pre in these is designed to be clean and warm rather than providing much in the way of grit but im sure ive read people who put different 12ax7's in to coax a little more growl out of them.

    So it looks like the VU bulb has gone. Amp works fine still and i have contacted Ashdown regarding a replacement. Dave Green is kindly sending one over and ill get it fitted asap
