  3. Stop And Stare - OneRepublic
  4. Looks nice, Silky. A shout out to another Fleet based Basschatter!!
  5. Another thing - the curriculum for music teaching in uk schools centres around ukuleles and guitars. I get the three string idea but I think that these aren't ideal.
  6. Hi @Big_Sam. You have had masses of good advice about how to get the sound you want out of your BF cab. At the risk of muddying the water, I have discovered that the old school tone I wanted out of my rig, is not necessarily the sound that gets you heard in the mix. Now you might be happy with being a rumble in the mix but it can also be a muddy mush, especially in a space with difficult acoustics. I have been surprised by how much different my “on stage” tone sounds out in the room. Since getting a wireless system, I have had the opportunity to walk out in front to hear what the audience are getting and it can be quite different to what you hear close to the rig. I am now prepared to put up with a bit more high-mid and top end just to get a bit more clarity out front. Anyway, I just offer that as a thought, which you can completely ignore 😀. BTW, I have a Barefaced Two10 and 2 LFSys Monzas, the latter being more akin to your Super Compact but even more FRFR. The audience can hear the Monzas very well, the Two10 not so much without some upper EQ tweaks.
  7. Lovely looking bass. As well as the truss-rod, do these have carbon rods reinforcing the neck?
  8. I actually prefer a direct sale, but it always depends. Maybe you can send me your ideas via pm.

  10. I thought these looked interesting but £149 at Gear4music. 😯 That's a big investment for something that for most kids will be a piece of sculpture.
  11. Having a bit of a hardware clear out. I have a few sets of machine heads that I wont be using. All are new and unused but the boxes show signs of wear/age. Schaller BMF in black £60 posted Schaller M5-2000 5 string £60 posted Schaller M5-2000 5 string £60 posted Schaller Guitar Tuners £70 posted Schaller M4 Gold 2 a-side £55 posted
  12. Unused 5 string clamp for headless bass. £40 posted. Unused ABM 5 String Bridge £70 posted. Really nice quality bridge. Used Schaller 2000 bridge £40 posted. A few marks where the saddle screws touch the bass plate.
  13. I've not seen these before, and would be interested to know the educational thinking behind the 3-string idea. Quality-wise they seem ok (as much as I can tell from a photo). Bit pricey though I think. Probably best to go for the 6+ range and let her grow into it. Notwithstanding the flash cards and app, OP should still be prepared to spend time with her (IMHO, obvs.). It would be good to monitor progress regularly even if she seems happy with the app and cards. As I said before I think, most bad playing habits are acquired early and can be a pain to unravel further down the line. As always, just my opinion.
  14. If buying different tips, measure the diameter of the 'speaker' part they fit on as the hole in the tip come in different sizes. I've not checked when buying off Amazon and got ones too small.
  15. I can't enter this as it's several years old, but it fits the theme and is a bit different, so just for fun:
  16. Yep, i had the same experience. Started with the popular KZ’s but they were never comfortable and put me of using IEM’s for a while. Also settled on the Sennheiser’s after trying a few other brands. I have flat ears and most that i tried felt like they going to fall out, event though the seal itself was good.
  17. I remember the post now Michael. Apologies for asking again. Dave
  18. Great bass line, although arguably a derivative of Chic Good Times?!
  19. Another one bites the dust must be up there somewhere, soon as you hear the first 3 notes you know what it is, apologies if it’s already been mentioned
  20. Today
  21. Anodized gold pickguard from my Fender Classic 50s Precision Bass. Free postage.
  22. A pricier option, but these look like a good idea. https://loogguitars.com 3 top strings from a guitar, on a child-sized instrument. Less to learn, and transferable to big guitar later.
  23. i remember hearing that the first time in a club and was absolutely blown away, fantastic tune there Dr J
