High Quality 3/4 DB Gigbag - suggestions?
Burns-bass replied to Happy Jack's topic in EUB and Double Bass
Weird as it seems, the Hidersine gigbag was the best one I found to use with the aluminium bass. -
High Quality 3/4 DB Gigbag - suggestions?

I bought one of these when they were only £400, you won’t break it though 👍 https://www.thomann.co.uk/soundwear_performer_3234_02.htm -
Show us your rig of choice for the weekend ** Basschat edition**

Maiden voyage for this setup tonight. It's a tight space with low ceilings. -
This is Mike Beigel’s small format, 9V recreation of his legendary Mu-Tron III pedal. This is in excellent condition and not used as much as I thought I would ( another Chilis Project never came off ) Comes with original box and paperwork. Price includes next day shipping Trades, I am after a Digitech Drop Tuner so that would be of interest

I bought mine from Bass Direct several years ago. They might be able to order one in. I customised mine beyond recognition with a Mike Pope preamp, upgraded Bartolini pickups and Hipshot hardware. I also took a router to it and changed the pickup positions and installed Luminlay dot markers on the fingerboard and side of the neck. You wouldn't recognise it as the same bass.

It also doesn't look wide enough to cover the two existing outer holes so they may be visible if you fit it. Guyker hardware usually has proper diagram showing the dimensions and screw pitch etc, check other listings to see if they include it or message Guyker themselves. Looks like a nice bridge though. EDIT some here: This one might be a better fit: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009638519208.html Measurements here:

La Bella do a specific Mustang string through set. They list the full speaking length of the string on their website so you can check before you buy.

It's not really "& CHIC" is it? 😟 -
That’s lovely!

I turned up to a local gig with my folder full of bank statements, rather than my chord charts.

What unusual bass instruments are you using?
Rosie C replied to Nail Soup's topic in General Discussion
Very nice. I tried to learn lute but without a teacher I didn't make much progress and ended up playing mandolin instead. One day I will build a lute though, and learn to play it! -
The problem - well, it's morally bankrupt. I always smirk when I see "that pdf" which shows all this top end equipment listed. There's always the narrative "top end system", "sounds amazing", "no complaints ever"... lies lies lies. Anyway, these "great" setups dont mean anything... pricey setups don't defy physics. I think the golden era of making a living via being in a function band is well and truly over. Or maybe it's just cos I got sick of it all... Dunno. But it was definitely getting less enjoyable every gig I did.

Three spare basses. I tried to go for an obscure make and model, to make it difficult to find spares and duplicates, but I still have 4 Washburn Bantam basses. Dual humbuckers, Dual single coils, dual Bartolinis. Fretless Dual bartolinis. Green. Natural. Zebra. Wacky blue-turquoise burst. Actually, they are a good thing to have - fun to play, easy to use. But I should have got rid of some of them earlier. A chorus pedal. I wonder what it sounds like - I must try it one day. A thick plectrum. I wonder what it sounds like - I must try it one day etc etc

In reality, most punters wouldn't know what a good or bad sounding band at a wedding sounds like. And if it sounds rubbish and the punters notice, they won't say anything - they are guests at a wedding and unlikely to have picked up the bill. Nobody will tell the bride or groom, cos nobody is going to be that person that potentially ruins their day... hence the problem goes unchallenged, the venue is paid, the band gets paid... and everybody is happy... kinda. Lets face it, for most couples and guests, it's a one off event.

Price drop now £115! Inspired by both new and old, the AfterLife has FOUR different internal analog circuits that provide 2 distortions and 2 fuzzes. Providing plenty of headroom and a ton of gain, these four selections will cover all the distorted ground you’ve got. While the outside boasts a lone Mode selection knob and a Volume control, there’s more under the hood to this one. Internal adjustable trimpots are available for all four modes, with parameters like overall Volume, Bias, Gain and Filter. The enclosure is 100% Solid Aircraft Aluminum Machined. The artwork on the front and back is laser-engraved, and each AfterLife pedal is 100% hand-wired and hand-built. Collect from Chesterfield or add £5 for UK postage. Cheers! Sam

You could suggest that a page “cpc for pedal builders” with links to a lot of common parts we would use might be a fun idea and drive sales
