    [url="http://www.bearstraps.com/"]http://www.bearstraps.com/[/url] Mine was £40 and compared to the more expensive El Dorado straps are exeptional quality. I opted for a Classic #2, sent my specs through and the strap arrived within 48 hrs. Apparently he supplies quite a few big names too, Noel Gallagher had a set of 10 classic #1's made for his tour according to Rupert

    Perhaps try a more 'smiley face' eq setting? Boost the bass and mids and maybe drop the far end off a bit. From what youve said there it seems your leaving bass and mids flat and boosting treble so it will sound a little 'light'

    [quote name='bremen' timestamp='1321966788' post='1444848'] I'd have had this, but I've just done a deal with an old slapper... [/quote] Sounds fun

    Cheers, just ordered a cover for me valve head, been meaning to do it for a while

    Tough crowd. How about ill build the bass (expect pups and harness), string it with new-ish Picatto Flats, give it a set up and offer delivery within 10 miles for £50? There's a pic further up of what it looks like built and a decent pic on the Precisions thread in Gear Porn

    Out of interest (and for a free bump) what is the amp in your 'stack' picture, 2nd one down on the right. That silver grill cloth head would look great sat on my bassman cab, shame i love my B120 so much at the moment

    feel like im on Dragons Den here but....maybe we could persuade the OP to let me buy the combo (ill collect) and then could offer P&P on the bass (obviously shouldnt be too expensive now ive taken the heavy part)?
  16. Pow_22
    no interest on anyone going 'in with me' on the deal. You get the bass, i get the combo?
  17. Pow_22
    Right, ill sell the body with matching Fender decalled rosewood neck, tort guard, thumb rest and a set of unfitted elephant ear tuners (all you'll need is pups and wires for a Pino look.....£50 collected from Manchester?
  18. Pow_22
    Ill throw this out there peeps. Id love the combo so if anyone wants the bass maybe we could do some sort of deal. Im not a million miles away from Leeds so i dont mind going over to collect if someone on here wants the bass we could do a deal between us, £75 for the two is a bargain so rather than try and haggle with the OP on a split i thought id just guage if there'd be any interest if the bass was picked up from Leeds and brought back to the correct side of the pennines? (joke BTW before i get a yorkshire lynch mob after me

    would love to try a set of the black nylons on my Bison (apparently the bass they were invented for). Bit pricey tho and i do like the sound of the current Roto fkats i have on it
  20. Pow_22
    No worries, give us a shout if it falls through, been after one for a while
  21. Pow_22
    feel free to fling any offers my way type bump

The last image shows what the body will look like with the supplied tort guard and thumb rest. Neck pics to follow shortly

    you floggin the chrome pickup cover by any chance?
  24. Pow_22
    cheers Oli, in no big rush,wont be goin to the tech till after payday. Ive never even taken the chassis out the box so who knows what lurks in there. Just thought i could at least try chaging the pre-valves as i know they are fairly easy. Will give you a shout re: the valves. Cheers

    Ive had my B120 for around a year now and its time it went in for a service. I think the tubes are original so im preparing for the news that they need replacing. Ive had a look at the usual suspects (Hot Rox and Watford Valves) to see how much i can get a set for to get fitted should the Mullards be pronounced DOA. I think i might have a little go at changing the pre-amp valves using Mr Foxens build diary as a guide. WHen i look through the top vent i can see a glow from 2 but not the others (maybe in a shielding can?) So i think thats me needing 1 x 12AT7 and 4 x 12AX7 plus obviously the 6 x EL34 power valves (how much glass!!!!) Recently the amp is a little 'farty' at first but once fully warmed up (maybe 10-15 mins of full playing) it does get better. Looking at the amp i dont think the thing has ever even been opened up so it could be an expensive service. Just debating over whether to take it to Dave Lunt (highly recommended but a few horror stories) or David Pye in Preston (seems well recommended and fairly cheap). Anyway, i know there are a few SC guys on here so anyone recommend a good Valve supplier incase the worst happens
