Back to the OP, as others have said I think they look super cool and had persevered with the bridge cover for a while now, although I've been depping lately with a band that plays lots of punk/indie stuff so have since removed the bridge cover as I like the tonal change when playing nearer the bridge. Point worth mentioning also, if you've got a Jazz with a Badass bridge fitted, the F stamped bridge cover wont fit.

Looks a bit like me - only my moobs/waistband aint that big! At least he left his hat on.

If I may have a look after the good dr, that'd be much appreciated.

Just sold a Rat King to Si, nice easy transaction! Would deal with again!

Just purchased an Xotic BB Preamp from Markus, great communication and completely hassle free, deal with confidence!

[quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1386675728' post='2302867'] I can definitely feel the bass from my Super 12T [2x12" in the one box] [/quote] I like the sound of that! I've just bought Shockwave's used in the Marketplace and am looking forward to give it an airing

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1386601144' post='2301989'] No chance of me sellig that one my friend - however good the diabolik may turn out, the TFR is the end of a looong muff quest and is going nowhere at all [/quote] No worries Gaz, I've been thinking of pulling the trigger on one from Prymaxe but thought I'd ask the question (I know how much you love it!).

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1386600821' post='2301983'] Yes yes, tweeterless 4x12 all the way for me I'll try record some clips after xmas when i get back into the practise room, diabolik and TFR comparison i think... And oxfuzz bass too, unless somebody buys it off me first!! [/quote] If you end up liking the Diabolik more than the TFR, can I have first dibs on the TFR please - been wanting to try one for quite some time now

Bassfuzz.com is a great place to check out some great gear. Personally I love my Prescription Electronics Depth Charge - so much so I have two! Thing is everyone has varying ideas of what they're trying to achieve.

Can't be right, surely? [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Chunk-Systems-Agent-00Funk-Mark-II-Bass-Envelope-Filter-/141083925611?pt=UK_MusicalInstruments_Other_Pro_Audio_Equipment&hash=item20d941dc6b"]http://www.ebay.co.u...=item20d941dc6b[/url]

Hmm, I messaged the seller too - here's the response I got: [color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3]Hi There [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3]I wish it was a Geddy Lee signature bass, but alas its just a standard American Jazz Bass.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3]As you are only up in Andover, if you pay through PayPal, I will deliver it myself for free...[/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3]And no, I haven't bid on it.... [/size][/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3]Edited for typo[/size][/font][/color]

Over the years I've had a lot of tasty basses (and still have a few, which I hope to never have to part with), it's taken me a while but I've finally come to the conclusion that I definitely favour Fender Basses for playing live, and in particular the Jazz Bass, as I find them ergonomically comfortable to play and they always sit nicely/cut through the mix particularly well (IMO). If money were no object I'd like a brace of old Jazz Basses please, one with rosewood/blocks/binding, the other with maple/blocks/binding - I'd really fancy a 3TSB with rosewood (the one Clarky had for sale was very tasty), but a nice custom colour for the maple, maybe Surf Green or Sea Foam Green. I'd be quite happy with those thank you!

Definitely! Here's a couple of pics of one of my regular gig basses - the girl's love it (and so do my band mates!!)

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1382628120' post='2254659'] Consider this value for money (for the effects/sounds you get), Pete Cornish sells his Fuzz Pedal for nearly £600 lol [url="http://www.petecornish.co.uk/SAEP-1.html"]http://www.petecorni....uk/SAEP-1.html[/url] Si [/quote] Amen to that, he produces some seriously nice kit but way out of my budget!

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1382529842' post='2253215'] I'd have that like a shot if it weren't for the usual reason. [/quote] +1 to that - if only I could shift my SS1

Bugger! Nice and local but I'm too old! Seems life finishes when you turn 40!??

I'll have a go after Oopsdabassist please!
