  1. Past hour
  2. Candy man - Sammy Davis Jnr
  3. Hey folks! The smaller footprint high quality modeller from Neural DSP. Got this from my guitarist who decided to go for a HX Stomp (he liked the screen). I’ve been playing around with this at home and on some gigs and as a fly rig it’s ideally suited to the gigging bassist needs. I’d set it up with a 4 gigging tones all based on classic amp models and captures from clean to dirty and the ability to add eq, compression, drive and effects as well as the latest version 2 captures all sounding even better than the initial set of bass presets which already sounded great. The app interface is quite straightforward and very easy to navigate and it’s super easy to use. Very conflicted but can’t keep this one I’m afraid. I’d been powering it from the USB C off my pedal board power brick but also from a 9v 500mA out and as you can see in the pic a usb power bank too. Very handy! Make no mistake this is a cracking unit which a huge amount of bass players would get lots of fun out of live especially if you gravitate a to 3-4 sounds on a gig. I’d been using it for IEM and direct to desk/FOH and taking a second out with no cab IR to my amp. Worked flawlessly. As this is a unit which can capture you can do this at home or download for. The cloud so a heap of options already available to experiment with. Price includes uk shipping only. More pictures upon request and unit comes boxed.
  4. Amazing weight for a ‘78! Perfect gigging machine!
  5. Yup absolutely right Lozz, though the bass doesn't exhibit obvious neck dive when worn. But those tuners are unnecessarily chunky. Annoyingly there doesn't seem to be an ultralight version of the 70s style tuners so changing them involves drilling new holes. I do have some Gotoh Resolite GRL510C12 - hard to get in the UK - and they're only 180g for the complete set. So I can lose an impressive 265g off the headstock. Worth noting though that the Gotoh clover isn't quite the same as the Fender one, and the shaft is a little shorter
  6. Look, I don't have a multimeter here to measure... but my luthier measured it for me once and said everything was okay. Regarding the cavities, I can disassemble it and send you photos so you can see if there's anything wrong. The problem is that these things are sometimes not visible to the "naked eye". The situation is really complicated and frustrating.
  7. Just had the final rehearsal for tomorrow's concert in Keswick.
  8. I'm not allowed to do 'hard paddington stares' but please could everyone look (or at least think) about whether their suggestions have been done once, twice or even three times before? The fun about this is the original word puns!
  9. actually used one of these for a small pub gig and was great worked wonders so, would recommend to anyone who wants one
  10. I’d say the reason why the Aerodyne feels a fair bit lighter than the 75RI is the difference in weight of the neck & tuners, might not seem much difference but it all pulls on the shoulder.
  11. Candy Girl - New Edition
  12. I can definitely see an obsession building. Scratch plate? Pah! That's 100g of dead weight with the screws! If I bought a large I could mill up a titanium string tree and save 3 grams.
  13. Today
  14. Sweets for my Sweet - The Drifters / The Searchers
  15. I don't know anything about their basses but I think when I was a Student in the early 80s, I used to eat their boil-in-th-bag curries.
  16. Bought a Glockenklang preamp from Andrew. As above, sent next day delivery, well packaged. Great comms, top notch deal!
  17. It's been a whole week so it's time for some more Dave Holland. The complete bass performance of the Kevin Eubanks tune 'The Watcher' from the 2013 album, 'Prism' that features Holland, Eubanks, Eric Harland on drums and Craig Tabor on piano. A wonderfully grungy sounding quartet with a real edge in terms of the compositions. Fairly demanding this time as the tempo is fairly quick and the lines fairly unpredictable and the time signatures are constantly moving. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/the-watcher-dave-holland/
  18. You are probably right, but My bank manager's too tight.
  19. I might be able to get up your way before Christmas so will give you a shout 👍
  20. There you go. Exactly the same apart from I've removed the thumb rest.
  21. I literally can't think of a better way of settling the issue! 😅
  22. PRICE REDUCTION - £25 shipped or £20 pickup in person. Hi Folks, Flyht Pro 1U Rack Drawer 27.5cm wide x 25cm deep for sale. I bought this directly from Thomann as B-Stock and had overlooked its dimensions so I immediately tried to return it to them but they just issued me a refund as it wasn't worth the environmental impact of shipping it across Europe, apparently. I didn't even screw it in once during its time with me so it appears to be completely brand new to my eyes. Nice smooth action on the drawer. You're welcome to come and pick it up IRL from Petersfield, Hampshire, England or I can ship it to you for an extra £5 (which would be a total of £25). Happy to meet you somewhere local to Petersfield or arrange a fuel contribution from you if you need it driving a little further. Feel free to fire over any questions you may have. Cheers, B
  23. Amazing, do you have any more pictures?
