Look Mum No Computer is the UK Entry for Eurovision
Misdee replied to BigRedX's topic in General Discussion
That's what I said. I find the political dimension of Eurovision quite hard to follow. They're anti-Israel, right? Okay then, great, so at least we know where light entertainment in Azerbaijan stands on these kind of issues. I'm sure that makes just as big a difference to those fighting on the frontline as it does to me. -

That's cool, I have both the original Clone Theory and a Golden Ratio. Both are noisy... but they do sound great 👍

East and Lusithand filter preamps: anyone compared them?
JPJ replied to franzbassist's topic in Repairs and Technical
Can’t remember but @funkle has a great thread Here on building a Wal’ish bass where he tries various pickups and preamps in pursuit of the Wal sound. There are also a couple of other Wal’alike builds in the Build Diaries section with at least one using the Lusithand pre. I have an early Overwater original series 5 string that has a filter based preamp and I think John East built the preamps for Overwater, but I am sure his newer designs will be more advanced.- 1 reply

Journeyed down to London yesterday to catch Tarja Turunen and band at the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire. Billed as the 'Living The Dream - The Hits' tour, the set included prime cuts from both her solo and Nightwish careers, and her live band included non other than Doug Wimbish (with 4 and 5 string Spectors). I've been to a few Tarja shows over the last 10-12 years ago and although Doug has toured with her a few times, I think this is the first time I've seen him on stage with her. Anyway it was a great gig, very heavy in places (as one would expect) with several songs featuring extended instrumental outros with guitar and bass soloing in places. Only downer was that the low stage in the Empire and number of people filming meant those of us further back were often left watching proceedings on a screen.

Selling these stock Bartolini pickups out from the famous Lakland Deluxe USA 55-94. These are the jazz 59KLN3 and the DL52K3. They have punch. Deliver great lows and mids. They are fully operational. They are great replacements to the Lakland pickups in the current Lakland basses (55-02 or 55-94). 200 euros. IMG_0363.HEIC

It's time to move on two basses I recently took as trade-ins from the sales of two other instruments. These are two really nice basses, particularly the American Professional II Jazz, which plays like a dream with a lovely neck profile, very similar to my Elite Jazz. The Maruszczyk "Mr.Tee" is a unique one-off instrument with a huge sound, which can create a lovely Double Bass-alike tone with its Piezo bridge when played just below the fingerboard. 2023 Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass in black gloss polyurethane with lovely dark Rosewood fingerboard. High mass bridge with top loading, or through-body stringing, lightweight Fender tuners & Fender's V-Mod 2 single coil pickups. This 2023 bass was barely used by its previous owner and as such is in as-new condition. No dents/dings or scratches. Comes complete with original OEM Fender hard shell case with TSA locks and all labels/case candy/certificate of authenticity. Currently set up with a lovely low action and long-lasting Elixir 40-95 strings. The bass is shown in the pictures with a dark tortoiseshell scratch guard - it will also come with the original OEM Fender Mint scratch guard (also pictured.) Price: £1195 Interesting trades always considered! Maruszczyk "Mr. Tee" 5-string Shortscale Bass with BassCulture SSC Single Coil & ETS Piezo & Custom Richter Preamp. This is a unique little bass by the Polish-based Maruszczyk workshop. A custom Mr. Tee model 5 string Telecaster-style semi-hollow body with a comfortable 30" short scale. Features include a BassCulture SSC single coil pickup and an ETS Piezo-equppied bridge, with custom 3-band preamp by Richter. Currently strung E-C and freshly set up with a nice low action on new 35-95 Ernie Ball Flatwound Strings. Comes complete with a Hiscox Hard Shell Case. The bass was originally built as a fretless in 2021, but was professionally fretted by a previous owner. Alder Body with light veneer & Buckeye Poplar Top, 5-bolt neck joint, matching Buckeye Poplar headstock. All in beautiful almost-as-new condition. This is one stunning bass! Price: £995 As always, interesting trades considered! Buyer to collect, or can deliver/meet at a reasonable distance - up to 100 miles from M1 J25, Derbyshire.

Hi all, I bought this on here in July 2024 to use on an upcoming tour, then decided on two separate signal chains (upright and electric) instead of using this as an A/B box. It has sat in a drawer in its pouch ever since, so is immaculate, and has probably only had a few hours use by me. It’s essentially the same pedal as the Basswitch DI (more well known to us electric bassists) but with a couple different features, namely a notch filter, and the ability to mix both inputs (for those using mic and pickup on their upright). It’s mainly aimed at upright players, hence the name and variation from the Basswitch, but it’s a lovely and very capable electric bass preamp, and has 2 effects loops, and a DI out. A real swiss army knife utility pedal. Perfect for running 2 instruments into a common signal chain and sending a single DI out. Comes with velcro attached (can take off if needed), it’s detachable rubber feet, and its protective pouch. Looking for what I paid for it - £150 + postage, or can be picked up from UB10, London.

Definitely an act of God (or Providence) and therefore outside the definition of a purchase. Case dismissed.

As she offered to buy it and presumably you didn't ask her to, then since it's such a heartwarming story of man, woman, and bass together again, then I think we should note it on the record but not class it as fail. Enjoy the bass!
