  1. Past hour
  2. Agreed Mick, Whilst the SMX series added some useful bells and whistles such as compression and a blendable valve/solid state preamp, the Series 6 has a certain immediate clarity with clout never bettered by Trace Elliot.
  3. Yep, 'twas my Markbass TA503, that I still own. Thanks for the kind words mate.
  4. I have obscured the full serial number as I have been advised this can impede scammers from claiming ownership somehow. The details shown above attest to the bass being manufactured by Fender USA in 2018. I have also used the official Fender Serial Number Look Up service, which returns the below details:- I hope this is OK. If there's something else you need the full serial number for, can I ask that you send me a personal message, thank you.
  5. Floods by Pantera. Rex Brown must be one of the most under appreciated bassists. The bass groove behind Dimebags epic solo is just brilliant. There's nothing particularly hard to play but there's a lot to remember.
  6. I had a very musically diverse day today... This morning I rehearsed with the punk band, breaking in a new guitarist. This afternoon I went to a local church hall to see a chap called Julian Perkins play Bach's Goldberg Variations on a harpsichord brought up specially from London. He did it beautifully (though rather heretically, I prefer to hear Bach played on an actual piano!). And this evening I'll be recording some funky slap bass for my EDMFunkRock band's upcoming difficult Second Record...
  7. Now added 👍
  8. Filter is only ever going to go to MIDI note 36. Accent can indeed modify ADSR depth via the flexis. It’s covered in the manual. (I use this in some of my patches.) Up to the current firmware, the FI transmits MIDI only on its own channel so all external synths must be on that channel. (In the next update, you’ll be able to set separate internal and external channels.) You’ll need to enable MIDI output on each patch. It’s only enabled on the first four factory patches by default. This is covered in the manual.
  9. A fantastic arrangement of a tune that most of us Jazzers will have played 1,000 times. The complete bass part for the Dave Grusin arrangement of 'Take The A Train' from the 1993 album, 'Homage To Duke'. Through composed, it's all there in the dots this time. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/take-the-a-train-dave-grusin/
  10. Yeah still for sale mark
  11. Is that one still available? I can't believe any of us thinks the $5k Middlesbrough bass is legit!
  12. Bananana Effects Quimera: a powerful polysynth pedal for guitars and keys - SYNTH ANATOMY Nice little review posted here.
  13. I know we talked about this stuff before and you were in a bad way with the pain so this is huge. Dave
  14. Nope even though it’s about an hour from me. I do hope it’s legit as at that price it’s a steal for someone.
  15. Hopefully someone got a legit bargain! Wouldn’t be surprised if a vintage dealer has taken a punt although obviously wasn’t yourself…
  16. 10538 Overture - ELO
  17. Repetition is the key to technique, which is the key to ease, which is the key to expressiveness, which is the key to musical beauty. Piano needs a lot of practice to sometimes achieve a very simple goal, so it's a very demanding instrument. Don't get discouraged, just persevere, play each and every day even if it's only 10 minutes and ask an external ear to assess your progress: You'll be amazed by the very positive answer.
  18. Thanks Dave, I still can’t do much but I’ll take that any day of the week compared to where I was 2/3 years ago. Pain free and pretty decent mobility, if that’s as far as I can go will suit me.
  19. I tell you what, you take the buttons off yours, and I'll send you 5 shiney chrome ones, and a set of nickel vintage tuners, only got 4 though. 😁
  20. No pain is great news for you Lozz. Dave
  21. Apologies for the delayed reply. It's the modern 1.625”. Additonally the hole on the board has been repaired making this a bit of a bargain, Fender Neck, EMG Geezers and under 8lbs
  22. Selling my trusted GK 410 cab which has been in my possession for the last 7 years or so. Powerful, punchy, and light weight with the neodymium magnets. Comes with amp cover. Open to sensible offers, looking to shift this before i move house in March. Collection from SW20 preferred.

  23. Would you trust this site tauzero, iv never baught anything via e-bay from China??,.... they look the part though..... what do ya think?
  24. Something I was putting together as a backup but ended up with something else…… Slab Precision 66 type body. The paint is thin and not the best finish but not embarrassing. I didn’t paint it, it was like that when I bought it from here. It’s fine when it’s dressed up though. The neck pocket is bit oversized but when I fitted the neck (that I bought from here separately) , the holes lined up perfectly. I presume they are drilled for a standard Fender neck fitting. The neck is quite nice. It has Fender decals but it’s not a Fender. The decals have also been lacquered over. It has black Schaller tuners and a Geddy Lee neck plate. I think someone was building a Geddy at some point. The pups are Fender. They came out of a Mex Deluxe I believe. i was going to change the harness as it sometimes makes a crackle noise, not all the time, just now and again. Never got round to it as it’s so infrequent. Plays well enough and the neck is quite skinny. I haven’t weighed it but I would say it’s between 8-8 1/2 pounds. It could be a lot nicer with a bit of tlc but I’m not going to use it now and thought I may as well pass it on to someone. Collection and trial much preferred but I will post if the buyer arranges their own courier. I’ll throw in an old Gator case to ship it in. It’s seen better days so don’t think you are getting a posh new one 🤣 It’s a freebie!

  25. I think this is correct! This week I got quoted roughly 3-3.5k for a 5 string fender shaped object if I were to order it
