  1. Cheers for the answers. Never thought of Status, heard good things about them and they are dirt cheap. Also seen a set of GHS short scales on ebay from US at about £15 delivered. Think the status's might be worth a go
  2. [size="3"][color="#000000"]Picked up a dirt cheap Epiphone EB0 shortscale bass last week. Done a bit of a set up on it and it sounds ok. Only thing is it came with rounds on it (forgot how much I hated them), anyone know of any decent short-scale flats that will go on it? [/color][/size] [size="3"][color="#000000"] [/color][/size] [size="3"][color="#000000"]My other basses all wear either Fender 9050M’s or Picatos. The only flats I can find in shortscale are the Roto’s but with pretty weedy gauges.[/color][/size]
  3. Jack Ellis. Based in Cheetham Hill. He does all my basses, cant speak highly enough if him. His site is Jacks Instrument Services
  4. Bought this from PMT in manchester about 10 months ago. Since then it has sat in my spare room and has had about 3 hours total bedroom play. Still have original box and all manuals/paperwork etc. Can post pics if any interest. Looking for about £70 collected from Bolton
  5. Mike Dirnt - Green Day. God awful bass player
  6. A lovely big Minataur strap from the mrs
  7. Sorry dudes, sold to mojobass. Still might pop to the local tho Trev, dont need an excuse Merry Christmas
  8. No worries. Back up for sale then peeps
  9. Just ordered these from Strings Direct but realised they are the wrong gauge. They havent yet arrived but when they do i can do them for £15 inc P&P? They were £19.99 delivered from the shop and wont even be opened.
  10. Hello from yet another Boltoner
  11. Sold mine on here and regretted it ever since. Have a bump for a lovely bass, if i had the dough this would be winging its way to me now
  12. Green Day?? Really? I think dirnt is the most over-rated player out there (but thats a whole new thread)
  13. Bought an ECC83 valve off Gareth. Well packed and good price. Nae danger
  14. Tom bought a set a lightly used flats off me. Effortless transaction and pleasure dealing with him.

    Discreet bought my OBBM cable, smooth transaction and top guy
  16. [font=Calibri][size=3][color=#000000]OBBM (Basic Bits) Instrument cable - Klotz wiring and neutrik jacks. 6mtrs long, black and with straight jack at one end and right-angled jack at the other.[/color][/size][/font] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Calibri]Good solid heavy duty cable – just search these forums for reviews. Only reason I don’t use it anymore is that I went all 1970s and use a curly lead. Thinning out my gear after years of experimenting [/font][font=Wingdings][font=Wingdings]J[/font][/font][/color][/size] [size=3][color=#000000][font=Calibri]Originally cost me £22.80. Still like new – will take £15 delivered. Paypal gift or bank transfer.[/font][/color][/size]
  17. 1 x Sovtek 12AX7WA - Taken out of my Hartke. Worked fine but not sure of age. £5 delivered 1 x JJ Tesla ECC83S - DR250 High Gain version (from Watford Valves) - Had 2 hours play. Bought brand new from Watford Valves - I just prefer my NOS Brimars. £8 delivered. Any questions fire away.
  18. Not yet, just had a PM with an offer of a set in exchange for the Roto's so will report back
  19. That could well be true Redstriper. It may well be that im not giving them the time to bed in. Certainly the Rotos seem even across the strings straight from the box. Whilst the tone mellows with age all the strings have the same tone. Ive found with most others that this isnt the case. Certainly sticking with the Picatos you sent for a while as they are lovely and will be even more so once theyve mellowed down
  20. Certainly will voxpop. All ive tried so far have different but likeable qualitys. My main bugbare seems to be inconsistency from string to string. Most sets ive tried (bar the Roto's interestingly enough) vary so much from string to string. I ofen find the G and D quite zingy, the A lovely warm and creamy and the E very dull and lifeless. Seems to be pretty much every brand so far. Will report back once my findings are complete
