  1. Past hour
  2. I see people who've bought one and spent money on upgrades and then trying to sell them on for what "it owes them".
  3. Whip in my Valise - Adam and the Ants
  4. As others have said, lots of practise. I was encouraged to sing some lead in my last band and one of the tunes was Bowie’s China Girl. The, “I wander into town…” section is right against the bass line rhythm. There was a lot of trying it at home before playing it live I can tell you.
  5. Still want this but wallet says no 😔
  6. Also - BC advises putting ownership into the pictures (like including a post-it note with your BC handle or something) so the pictures can't be used to rip someone off elsewhere (or on here)
  7. A few pedals for your viewing - Aguilar AGRO - from nice to nasty, vintage warmth to modern clank. £90 posted. Carl Martin Opto-Compressor - awesomely awesome compressor. There's a fullness to the sound with these that is addictive, and no loss of high end. Here's the Ovnilabs review: https://www.ovnilab.com/reviews/reviews/cmclassic.shtml I have two of these for sale: #1 - nearly new, one paint scratch, never gigged, no velcro. £85 posted #2 - not new at all, gigged and velcro'd. £60 posted.
  8. Electro Harmonix Nano Bass Big Muff Pi Price Drop - £40! + P+P Info here: https://www.andertons.co.uk/electro-harmonix-nano-bass-big-muff-pi-fuzz-pedal/
  9. That model GK showed up in the search I sis too.
  10. Darkglass Microtubes 900 Limited Edition "Medusa" with Padded bag and 2x Super Intelligent footswitches - £500 - Price drop to £450! Way too modern for this ole fellah! - Immaculate condition amplifier, with footswitches and Darkglass padded carry case. Darkglass Microtubes 900 Limited Edition amplifier with Christopher Lovell’s Medusa laser etched finish on top surface. Includes: • Darkglass single button Intelligent Footswitch • Darkglass four button Super Intelligent footswitch. - Both footswitches operate using a standard 1/4” jack cable • Darkglass Padded carry case A good ad/read, including video, here at the Bass gallery: https://thebassgallery.com/products/darkglass-microtubes-900-limited-edition?srsltid=AfmBOoqer6Zil4LZTZkw2Z2mvfqeAtsjCyMQyZ8QT20dQN6kcXbXnSPU
  11. The thing is I have yet to rehearse with this band, first time I met them was at the venue for the first gig! There are no sheets/charts, so was a character building experience! Seems like they're likely to offer me more gigs (already got a couple booked), in which case a rehearsal so I can try the backing vocals in a less pressured environment doesn't feel too unreasonable!
  12. I don’t have any suggestions beyond what has already been said. Practice is the key. I started singing when I started playing bass but that was a long time ago. I Saw Her Standing There was my first effort. I figured if Paul can do it so can I. I admit he is better than me.
  13. Did you get the manual that comes with the unit? If you did then read the manual carefully. Maybe you bought a faulty unit and it needs to be returned to Ashdown for service.
  14. Well, the PG looks period correct, smooth headed tuners too, pretty difficult to fake, other than that and what with the decal the whole ensemble could be anything. If it plays well and feels good for the right price its probably great....For the wrong price its going to be a mill stone..
  15. absolutely blown away I'll spend more time with it this week. Plug the other cab in and see how do As you say it feels different, it's more dynamic and organic gigs coming up will need Mustang with flats (blues/rock gig) New wave/ ska / mod dep (4003 with rounds) P bass with flats Police gig 50s style P bass with rounds I know its going to smash the new wave gig with the 4003
  16. The Sweetest Taboo - Sade
  17. Then I suppose it comes down to whether you want the baked in T21 version of an Ampeg sound. I like the Paradriver more than the BDDI or the VTDI but as far as I know there aren't any clones of the paradriver. Most BDDI clones seem to be all of the V1 so no mid control. That would be a deal breaker for me. But the new Joyo Tidal Wave appears to be a clone of the V2 and the youtube demos sound good. https://www.joyoaudio.co.uk/bass-effects/joyo-r-30-tidal-wave-bass-guitar-preamp-overdrive-pedal-with-eq-and-noise-reduction-di Needless to say, it's a lot cheaper than a T21.
  18. I have to echo many of @Mark S comments. I, too, had one of these and like Mark was surprised by the versatility and the sound quality of this bass. Do NOT underestimate these...you get REAL bass tones in a compact form. Like Mark, I also have a Jabba short scale but I'd encourage anybody that hasn't tried one of these to do so at the earliest opportunity. GLWTS
  19. Gallien-Krueger MB110 100W 1x 10-inch bass amp combo? 10kg Aux in Headphones https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/bass-guitar-combo-amp/gallien-krueger-mb110-100w-1x-10-inch-bass-amp-combo?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=ADC_Bax_UK_NBD_Shopping_bucket1&utm_id=22697294629&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22697294629&gbraid=0AAAAA_lFRUz4BlLOUuLZdcdac9iG_f96M&gclid=Cj0KCQjw-ZHEBhCxARIsAGGN96Km3M8VV6FlOpyN5odRP-6ug6Zm8esQlGXc2IsZW1oWGK1Fz5sA72saArY5EALw_wcB
  20. Yep it’s a great amp for sure I found not using Ultra Low but more bass in my EQ and it kept the mids very punchy in the band It’s very loud for a 100w amp and has a different feel playing notes If you’re a pick player then Ultra Low on would definitely work Glad you like it
  21. Hi all I've decided to try to sell my Vintera II. I bought it from GAK back in June last year and sadly it has been sat on a stand for the best part of the year, as I cannot get on with the early 60's C profile neck. There is not a scuff, scratch or ding on it as it has hardly been touched. It is an excellent bass, wearing La Bella Low tension flats, that deserves to be played. I'll take more specific close up photo's if requested. Price includes postage.

  22. You make me want to put one together but I don't have speakers that would suit a 100W amp.
  23. For sale is my TC Electronic GMajor-2 multi effects unit in fully working condition and updated to the latest firmware. Pictures show it in its usual rack home (rack not included). Although most of the standard effects are aimed at the guitarist I have found the compressor, gate, flanger, phaser and octaver (up and down) etc. to be very useable for bass. I can either factory reset before shipping or leave the presets I have created intalled. It has built in EQ, noise gate, compressor, reverbs, delays, wahs, octaver, tremolo, phaser, flanger etc each of which can be switched in / out from the front panel as required. I have been using this via my amps effects loop and found the compressor (and all the effects) just add their effect without changing the fundamental sound of the bass. Comes with original box and operating manual. You can use the unit in your DAW as well as with your bass / guitar etc. Patches can be easily selected from the front panel or attach a midi-pedal (I used a MidiMoose). There is also some Vyzor software you can download from the net which allows you to interface your PC with the GMajor-2 to edit and backup your user patches. I have also attached the GMajor-2 and Vyzor manuals below. tc_electronic_g-major_2_manual_english.pdfVyzor_G-Major2_Quick-Start.pdf I estimate UK shipping about £10 to £15.

  24. 1 rack unit is gone so the only one left is the lower one in the photos. For sale is my used but not abused EMS 500 19" rack case. The rack is currently assembled as 6U but can be reconfigured as 3U, 6U simply by removing some bolts and panels - 10 min job! You can also configure it so the top removes for mixers. The rack is currently assembled to a board with castors which isn't included in the sale and will be removed before shipping.........unless you really, really want it and then it would be an extra £20 and whatever the increased postage is. These are quite special cases as they are modular construction where you can increase or decrease the number of rack spaces by easily adding or removing side and end panels. All you need is an allen key! You can also use them with a mixer installed in the top and the top panel can be easily removed! See the photo of how I had the units set up for my band PA. (None of the rack equipment is included.) All catches etc are in good condition. Rack to rack depth is 48cm. Weight per 6U assembly is 18lbs / 8.2kg. See the attached brochure for more details. The 6U Gator version of this case weighs 13lbs so slightly lighter but is NOT as rigid, road resilient or has the flexiblity options. As these are modular I would propose they are dismantled and flat packed for shipping to reduce the cost. I'll give details on how to re-assemble if you need but its quite straight forward. I've estimated UK postage to be £15 per unit. 6U Rack Unit 2 - the lower 6U rack unit in the photos on its own - £90 / Board with castors - £20 / Both together £100. Shipping Extra EMS.pdf
