  1. Past hour
  2. And let's not forget Fender's extraordinary achievement of having offered 7526 different versions of the exact same model each and every year for the Namm show since your 15 years of absence...
  3. Would be god to see a better photo ๐Ÿ‘
  4. The grooves are there man, polished chrome on the saddle, look very close, it's a shite picture anyway. Trust me, they are there.
  5. Got a few of them, build quality is a bit naff compared to the Halon.
  6. I bought a set of TI Jazz Flats from David. They arrived promptly, very well packaged... and in excellent condition. Many thanks ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘
  7. A request from a Facebook Transcription Forum, the complete Charles Mingus bass performance on the track 'Goodbye Pork Pie Hat' from the 1959 Mingus album, 'Mingus Ah Um'. An absolute classic album chock full of magic. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/goodbye-pork-pie-hat-charles-mingus/
  8. No joke, the load out tends to take 30-mins longer when I use it as so many people come up and chat about it
  9. One thing I love about Ashdown is that despite being so busy, they've always got time to talk to you about gear, even if it's not related to an immediate sale. If only all brands were the same
  10. Had they done it more like the Mesa Venture - facade similarly on s slant but controls protected by overhang of case, rock solid handle, wheels - they might have got away with it Worth noting that the Venture weighed only slightly less than Luxembourg and had it's own gravitational field as the result, but was actually very easy to move around, even upstairs - defying it's Dalek-esque qualities - on the basis of those wheels and that handle ๐Ÿ‘
  11. Looks like Ashdown have been rather busy, a lot of new ranges probably ready for NAMM, and hopefully we get to see them in Birminghams Guitar & Bass show.
  12. Yep, if the adโ€™s still here itโ€™s still for sale (slightly surprisingly!)
  13. Andy bought a Bassrig 15 preamp pedal from me and all was tip top and hunky dory! Enjoy ๐Ÿ™‚
  14. GOLDEN STINGRAYS
  15. I suppose on the bright side - Bass playing is one of the few activities where you could have 50 year old equipment that is still perfectly fine (or even quite desirable) to use. For a lot of new Basses a new paint job is about the limit of innovation, and even that is a re-release a lot of the time.
  16. Just got an email re their new SBM range, lightweight powerful combos.
  17. Saw this on a sire page. They look nice.
  18. Would likely take an interesting swap for this. I was hoping to use the money towards a short scale ACG, but also in the market for a Jazz, preferably a Flea signature in pink if there's any going round. Send me a PM, always up for a chat!
  19. The usual suspects will all have a dog in the fight. Don't buy on recommendation. Go somewhere like Bass Direct and try some out. It's your decision which you prefer.
  20. I really like the sound of the new octave pedal. The octave up sounds much less quacky compared to the Ehx micro pog. I like how both can be mixed with sub low and dry. I just prefer the sound of the Aguilar. Grape phaser compared to mxr phase 90 sounds more silky smooth
  21. Today
  22. Good choice! ๐Ÿ‘ love the inlay!
  23. Hi Ron. I'll have a look around, to see if I can find something suitable. It's compact & lightweight, and the gigbag / case is pretty good However, protecting an acoustic instrument from being thrown around etc is my worry. I recently ordered a freezer - just in time for Xmas.... but it arrived in a rather battered state! Pieces falling out everywhere! If they can destroy something mostly made of metal... you get my drift. Anyhow, I'll have a scout around, see if I can find something suitable/ sturdy enough. It's a crying shame this isn't being used. If I hadn't acquired my beautifully made Jabba X-short scale, I'd have hung on to this. Cheers
  24. So what weโ€™re sayingโ€ฆ(weโ€™ve ended up discussing old Lakland Skyline/shoreline models) (and from looking around No Treble and other sitesโ€ฆ) Namm 2026 really hasnโ€™t delivered much to talk about in terms of bass stuff. Bah, Humbug.
