  3. dmccombe7
    What a gorgeous sounding Stingray and the story behind it is fascinating. Looks amazing with the black pick guard. GLWTS Dave

    The old isobaric cabs, the ones with two drivers in but only one facing out of the cab were heavy, in fact much heavier than they looked.

    I never really "got" Eurovision til last year, when I watched it as an entertainment show rather than as a music show, and really enjoyed it. A def sign that I`ve gotten old methinks.

    I must admit, I'm a bit envious! I've got a great blues band of a similar ilk, which has just about wound down as two of the key members because they are just too busy, not to mention that the main dep guitarist is unavailable due to a serious back issue. The Zep tribute hasn't got a lot of gigs booked for this year and I would love to fill up the diary gigging with a blues rock band like that, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of opportunities at the moment.

    I was hoping it would be this before I clicked - been deep into them for the past couple of days and love it. The microtonal fretboards look crazy, would love to see them play live but can't see any UK dates coming up soon. Super fun and also impressive.
  13. dmc79 started following D’Addario XT 45-105 Nickel wound strings
  14. dmc79
    D’Addario XT 45-105 nickel plated steel strings, for 4 string electric bass. Bought new from here, cut for Precision, played for no more than half an hour. Just a bit too lively for me after getting used to flats, I don’t have the patience to break them in. They are like new. £20 posted to UK address

    My wife is a huge fan and she’s made lifelong friends around the contest. In terms of relevance, it’s probably got more than another Dark Side of the Moon rerelease or scraping the barrel for another Beatles out take. Its all harmless fun and long may it continue!

    Happy birthday for yesterday. I’m almost a couple of years older than you, and I love my bus pass. I do live in an area well-served by busses, though. It may be very different for you. Yep, there’s lots of downsides to getting old, but it sure beats the alternative!

    They have fast become my favourite Dadaist Pythagorean-Cubist rock band in a crowded field.
  18. Bass Direct started following Yamaha your thoughts?
  19. Bass Direct
    Yamaha are excellent at providing great quality instruments at various price points, can't knock them to be honest! Also the after sales care is brilliant for both Yamaha and Ampeg, so 10/10 from us.

    Fake news! 😁 Kind of compliments the fake acts, fake songs vibe though... 🤔

    I bought a lot of guitars and basses in 2025 and none six weeks into this year — so I'm still in. The bass I had on commission at the gallery has sold so I'm actually one down, and I'm planning to sell a few more. I have used my share of a recent gig's money to place an order for three mustang bass mutes for my JMJs. These are scheduled to arrive from the US in early March. I'm not counting these mutes as a breach of the abstinence rules as Leo Fender designed the mustang bass bridge to have a mute, however Fender don't fit or even make them anymore, so I am just facilitating completion of the basses to bring them into correct 1966 specs.

    Viewing figures suggest otherwise - as does the amount of Eurovision parties that happen around the country.
  27. silverfoxnik started following Look Mum No Computer is the UK Entry for Eurovision
  28. silverfoxnik
    No. I can't see this particular choice of UK song contest entrant having a seismic impact on world affairs Chris. Does anyone really care about Eurovision anyway...? It's a very, very outdated and tired idea IMHO.
  29. 2pods started following Original effects Cali 76 Bass Compact Compressor. Immaculate

    Or any instrument. I’ll always recommend Yammy if a beginner asks for suggestions.
  31. Sean
    I've set one up, played it a bit and it was very good. I don’t want to get into comparisons with the Japan basses but the 235 I fettled was good and to be honest, anyone could have a career on it and be happy. I used to own a BB415, which is kind of the same but a generation earlier and that was my #2 bass for ages. Again, it was set up, fettled and made to play as well as any of my spendy basses. You can’t really go wrong with a well set up Yam at any price point. Even an expensive one is going to need some TLC “out of the box”.

    I have to sing bv's in various bands but, due to a major vocal surgery about 10 years ago, my voice is weaker than it used to be and I often find myself just a little bit flat on certain notes. Would subtle use of the pitch correction in the TC Helicon Mic Mechanic 2 help me sound better?

    The MXR Bass Auto Q is an auto-wah / envelope filter based on the sound of the Cry Baby pedal, this one designed specifically for bass guitar. The Bass Auto Q features adjustable sensitivity and blendable LFO signal. Condition is decent, the case has some chipped paint (around the base plate), just dusty otherwise. Everything works as it should. All it's original knobs present and correct. Seen these listed on ebay for a fair bit more than this and in roughly this condition. this is the broken battery clip, for some reason the battery hatch doesn't stay shut by itself either hence the velcro fix by a previous owner from these parts, does the job Pedal is in Hope Valley (S33 6SB) if you're passing for local collection or I can do local delivery, also happy to do UK postage.

    Another cool pedal I've had sat around a while, sounds great, I just don't use dirt in my current setup so while it sounds really good it's just sat in a cupboard and might as well be getting used by someone. Condition is excellent / looks new to me. Here's someone doing a demo of one: Pedal is in Hope Valley (S33 6SB) if you're passing for collection or I can do local delivery, also happy to do UK poastage.
