    He's seems to be seen as uncool by some, but he is brilliant live. Keith Scott, his guitarist, is pretty darn good.

    Sadowsky Black Flats - definitely LaBella made them New Sadowsky Blue Flats - I don’t know… I have only 1 Bass with them so I’m not sure- they have a GHS Precision Flats vibe feel sort of 😂😂😂

    I’ll take this please @ash if it’s still available. I’ve got a Basschat 8 cabinet that @Phil Starr made for me that needs building 😀

    I did a gig in about 2000/2002 where I'd been recommended to cover. Couldn't get hold of the band leader, texted, phoned and left messages. He eventually called me the day before the gig. Said - it's all standards, dress smart/casual, venue is... I turned up, he said Stick to the roots, nothing flash, watch the rhythm guitarist for the changes. I spent the next 3 hours playing songs I'd never heard before, trying to work out what the rhythm guitarist was playing - not helped by the fact he was facing away from me further not helped by not having had any sleep for months due to having a new born with colic. 🤣 But yes, at least getting a set list the morning of the gig gives you a chance to at least listen to the songs, but that's not always an advantage based on the "But we do our own version" prolification of bands around.

    If you want it to look dangerous you should make a feature of the symbol, perhaps on the headstock, and have it backlit with a slowly pulsing U/V led. The example below is the wrong colour and the pulse rate is a little too quick but it gives you the gist of what I have in my mind's eye.

    With orders coming in thick and fast and companies bending (their employees) over backwards to deliver your order the very same day or sooner, it's bound to happen. The thing is how they deal with it. They once sent me my order of 4-5 small to medium sized items, and everything was there, except there was also a 4 pack of Vic Firth drumsticks. Maybe one of the staff was just feeling generous. [insert Oprah Winfrey meme "and YOU get drumsticks, and YOU get drumsticks!.."]

    I picked one up a few months back and it's bloody brilliant. I just wanted something for noodling around at home with an aux in and headphones out and a less neutral sound than the GR Bass 800 that i had at the time. Seriously impressed with it at home levels - can't get a bad sound out of it.

    The name I recall for the earlier designs was Stuart Watson?

    Just watching Bryan Adams at Radio 2 in The Park on BBC2, with Bryan taking on bass duties. Band sound great, decent enough mix via regular TV speakers.

    Greetings from a fellow Sheffield dweller!

    Just a thought, but I still use MkIV GP11 preamps - the preamp gain usually has to be on 7 or 8 out of 10 clicks with any passive bass. There is a lot of headroom, I guess to suit higher output active basses of the time. No shortage of output on the master volume, but the preamp gain generally needs to be high.

    I'd have to concur with all of those sentiments (unfortunately including the last....) Why did they ever stop doing the chequer binding....?

    Flats are good on any bass. Different sound and feel to rounds, but plenty of good things to be had with flats.

    Hello, Very cool little Boss modeller for sale. Sounds great but I'm just not a modelling guy, I'm admitting defeat---I just don't enjoy the process, as good as the results can be. Boxed, also comes with additional Bright Onion switch. £350 delivered please. Would consider trades for bass gear - amps, basses (J flavoured), whatever... In good condition, a few scratches on the bottom as pictured. Album with lots of photos here: https://imgur.com/a/9pniK6g

    Beautiful, and a bargain Main body wood looks like alder. If it'd been for a 4 string I'd have snapped it up

    If all works well, depping isn’t for one-off gigs; if you do a good job people tend to ask you back next time which makes it more worthwhile putting in the initial effort. In my main depping job, I cover for a bassist whose side project clashes with some gigs, so it’s steady depping rather than one-off depping. Much better.

    @NancyJohnson, I've got the real deal, with the boomerang inlays and all - I picked it up years ago in Australia, it still has the 'Rudy's Music NY' sticker on it with the original price of it. It's heavy, it's a pain to setup, but it's priceless, it sounds amazing and I can only imagine you could probably count how many are left in the world on 2 hands now...

    Got to be the longest shot on Basschat! Always worth a go though!
