  1. Past hour
  2. We spoke to Nicks sister today, Nick family are putting on a memorial concert in Peterborough on the 7th September and wants to draw the raffle then so I’d imagine we’ll start selling tickets 4-6 weeks before then
  3. I used to enjoy doing that, but we lost our keyboard player so we had to drop it.
  4. Beautiful excellent condition Zoot Funkmeister 32 (asking a bit less than what I paid for it) Custom build 32” scale precision bass Roasted maple neck and fretboard Hausell precision pickup. Lightweight hipshot tuners. Drop D Xtender. Lightweight at just under 3.4kg Can’t get on with anything accept jazz necks so the only trades of interest would be a EBMM Sterling and maybe a G&L SE-2. Must be light weight though i.e. under 4kg if possible.
  5. Me again. This never sold, then I had a baby, and now I'm slowly getting back to reality 😁 So I'm bumping this with a note to any potential buyers; if you're in the UK and you're willing to be patient, I am willing to hop across the border and post this from Northern Ireland to avoid any import duty etc.
  6. I'm looking to buy a great Jazz Bass because Im about to sell my house and be mortgage free . Yay.!!.. I was looking for any opinions on these two. Ive owned a 1996 MIJ non export 75 and it was fantastic so I dig that maple/maple jazz bass sound. But I've never played a Moon JJ4 so I'm curious as to 1. what are the necks like on a Moon,.,I prefer a shallow C shape. 2. does a Moon JJ4 sound like a 70s jazz bass. I'm aware Moon slanted the neck pickup to give a fuller sound on the E string and the early JJ4s have a bartolini pre amp and pickups.. Any experience and thoughts from someone who has owned both or just the Moon is much appreciated. I would be looking for a 90s JJ4.
  7. Thank you, I’d forgotten to mention it has the vintage stylee reverse tuners - I’ve amended the post now👍
  8. And here we have Patitucci's complete bass part for the tune 'Tonight' from the same album. Listen to Gloria Estafan's phrasing and then go back and listen to Patitucci's. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/tonight-dave-grusin/
  9. I'll be going along for the setup and soundcheck but after that i'll be heading home as i'm not part of the band and it's a small wedding so i'd be pretty conspicuous (also i've got a kitchen to start painting tomorrow afternoon) the desk will be sitting next to the guitarist so if there are any issues he should be able to sort it fairly quickly, they don't want any foldback so that will hopefully help with reducing the chances of feedback, i might set up a second mic on a stand as well and balance between the two, the player might also object to the mic in a towel method so a mic on a stand might end up the answer anyway. Thank you for all the suggestions and tips, I'll try and report back once it's all over. Matt
  10. Neither will mine - I don't know why they quote an initial ridiculous and vague ETA, but mine are arriving on Tuesday - just under 3 weeks since I ordered them. If I need strings in a hurry, I got to my local shoppie anyway and pay full price for my lack of planning
  11. That's lovely. The AVII 60s P is 1960. Differences AFAICS: Tighter fingerboard radius (7.5"), marginally narrower nut (by 0.5mm), 4-ply pickguard with steel backplate, 1960 pickups. Aldo reverse tuners, not sure if thec63 has those.
  12. @Bill Fitzmaurice, here's an attempt at providing you with the dimensions. I'm not an expert at this by any stretch, but if you need anything else just let me know. Thanks ever so much for going out of your way to help me with this project.
  13. True, of course. Ian Klos asked me on a phone call about the headstock. I was diplomatic in that I said that it might put some people off. I suggested maybe a 2+2 arrangement in the more Status or Ibanez type shape. Or something along those lines.
  14. I dont need one of those. Every time i play is a master class in how not to play!!! I can only wish i was at that level of ability
  15. Time is Tight. Easy enough except the riff isn't quite what I thought it was and I keep reverting.
  16. Everything original except paint job and string tree. The org. string tree looked like if it was made of a can of Coca Cola.
  17. I am planning some mods. I'll report back on how they affect the sound
  18. LPB with red tort. Sorted.
  19. Today
  20. Evening, Selling some pedals I don’t use anymore. First is an Aguilar Tonehammer Preamp, it’s great, great condition and boxed. £150 posted Then a Solidgold FX Aurras, AURRAS OPTICAL VIBRAPHASE The Aurras Optical Vibraphase—a powerful effects pedal named after the goddess of sound, meets the legacy of its predecessor the Athena Vibraphase in a harmonious blend of legendary, vintage Uni-Vibe textures and innovative, modern prowess. FEATURES: 100% analog audio path from input to output. 2-stage asymmetric phase shifter built around a pair of selected and individually controlled opto-isolators. Dry Mix for tones and textures ranging from soft Vibrato to lush Uni-Vibe like sounds. Dual LFO setup powered by a microprocessor, providing limitless sonic flexibility. LFO Frequency and Phase Offset modes for increased versatility. The Frequency Offset adds rhythmic patterns by slowing down the second LFO, while the Phase Offset fine-tunes the throb by introducing asymmetry between the LFOs. Soft-touch relay-based true bypass switching, on-board tap tempo and speed ramping, expression pedal input. £150 posted
  21. Bought this December 2023 with the intention of having a smaller bass to noodle on around the house and take to small gigs but I never really bonded with it. It’s a brilliant little bass that’s really well made and sounds great but I could just never really get on with the size, taking this as a sign that short scales just aren’t for me! I paid around £350 for the bass and £110 for the hard case so listing both for around £270. There’s a small scratch/chip/mark on the lower horn that I’ve tried to photograph best I can. Collection from Portsmouth or happy to meet within a reasonable distance, would prefer to avoid posting if possible. Cheers!

  22. Only bought this a couple of weeks ago from another Basschat member, given it a run out at a couple of rehearsals but just isn’t my kind of sound so I’m listing it back up for what I paid for it. Rat based distortion with bass and treble eq controls, can do the lower gain thing but really shows what it can do at higher gain sounds. Price includes postage in the UK, cheers!
  23. Folks, now is probably a good time to announce that due to unforseen circumstances, the release of my fantastic new song, "Bernadette", has been delayed
  24. Currently for the Revolt & HX One. I have a Source Audio midi adapter ordered to link the Atlas. This is my 1st venture into midi. It's a steep learning curve for me but the Morningstar software is pretty good 👍
