    Are you using a hosting site like Imgur? If so attach the links to your post and I may be able to help.

    EDIT: I see you have 5 posts under your belt. PM me some pics or links.

    Cant see you're name which you'll need to include.

    Love the Hofner by the way.

    Had a non working one when I was a kiddie.

    It was nabbed out of the church I attended by some 'mischiefs',

    An older neighbour, dear friend from my formative years knew what it was and offered me a newer working bass guitar for it, so I swapped.

    He stripped it back completely, rebuilt it and had it re-painted white. It was fabulous when done.

    Has got to be the only white, genuine Hofner around. No idea where it ever ended up. He died young and this would be 40 years back.

    What I had to do was open your links, copy them to a folder on my PC and them paste them into Imgur and copy the picture links from Imgur and add them with the "Insert Image" box.

    Some lovely gear there Jacques.

    Is that a Mayware arm you are using on your Technics deck, with what looks like a Denon 103 cartridge? Nice collection of Quad gear (you have almost as much Quad gear as me) and some lovely Revox kit as well. Many years ago I used a G36 (736), but foolishly sold it on.

    Yes, Barry, a Mayware and a DL103. Against all odds they gel perfectly. I know a DL103 on a lightweight arm shouldn't work, but here it does. It tracks well, does bass, and produces some nice 3D sounds, with a rather bright treble that I enjoy.

    I'd never sell my G36, or my A77 for that matter.

    Done. Imgur it is then. Google doesn't work either!

    So, more stuff then.

    Yet another Quad 34.



    Auditor speaker, very British-like in its sound.



    Cabasse Galion 4, Le Tube by Jean Hiraga (original 1983, serial n°22).









    Philips rack from 1983.
