The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
Owen replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I must admit, the notes up the G maintaining a big fat thud is interesting. That is not my experience with longer scale basses. But this could be the Tru Bass strings I have on it. Thumpalicious. Who knew there were different flavours of fun? I could quite happily try one of the Fallouts with their big fat L1000 pickups. I shall wander over the ebay. -
bassbiscuits started following Zoom Rhythmtrak RT323 drum machine

I bought this Zoom drum machine from Basschat some years ago for some planned home recording and songwriting which never happened, and it’s been safely packed away in my drawer ever since. It’s a Zoom Rhythmtrak RT323 - an early 2000s bit of kit which is thankfully dead easy to use and has lots of very decent drum sounds in it. It’s in exactly the same condition as when I bought it, and it’s never even left the house. Comes with its 9v DC adaptor and a slightly dog eared manual. No box but I’ll pack it up well. As you’d expect there’s a big range of drum kits, percussion and bass sounds, and user drumkits whose parameters can be edited etc, and the ability to create patterns, songs etc etc. It’s worth mentioning that it doesn’t appear to function on batteries (it takes 6xAAs). The connectors are all clean and not damaged in any way, so I’m not sure what the issue might be. I always used it with the power supply, so it wasn’t an issue but obviously worth pointing out. Cosmetically there are a few marks on the metal back plate of it which I’ve tried to show - none affect how it works. There’s a few of these on EBay/Reverb etc for between about £65 to £100 upwards. I’m looking for £45. Happy to post within the UK and I can work out a price to do so. Equally you’re welcome to pop in for a cuppa and to try it out. Any questions give me a shout.

There’s space for everyone on this earth. I can’t say I enjoy Eurovision (but not Dino listen to Floyd or the Beatles much anymore, if ever). -

I’ve got a 614 that is very giggable, and have had a BBNE2 …if the neck on that was a bit thinner, I’d probably still have it.

ETS Tuning Fork Bass 5 Big (brass material) Rounded chrome, 18 mm strings spacing. Beware that the saddles were modified by a previous owner to go lower (but are working perfectly as is for standard B to G tuning, or you can interchange them to go lower on the treble side, or turn them upside down to start from fresh).

Spector NS Ethos 5 HP in immaculate condition. Gun metal grey high gloss finish with black hardware, upgraded pickups and pre amp with EMG 40P5 at neck position and EMG 40DC at bridge position with LHZ3 pre amp. EQ controls are volume, blend, bass and treble. The tuners have also been upgraded to Gotoh 350 Res-o-lite. This is a thru-neck bass. It comes with a Spector padded gig bag. I’ve had this bass around a year. It has no dings or marks, plays great and sounds fantastic. Only selling as a nasty bill has arrived and I need to get the money from somewhere. No trades thanks. Collection preferred, I live approximately 15 minutes from junctions 14 and 15 of the M1. I will ship however if the buyer wishes to arrange their own courier. The bass has its own gig bag and I have proper bass shipping boxes that it will be sent in. Please note, I took the photos myself and I am blind. I’ve tried to capture the bass as best I can so please bare that in mind whilst viewing them. Spector NS5 Ethos HP proof video.mov

TL:DR - (South) Manchester BCers - who does your setups? Not sure if this goes here or in repairs & technical? My regular setup bloke has called it a day. Try as I might, my amateur bodging aided by YouTube can't get close. Can the BC hive mind recommend me someone? Cheers!

tobiewharton replied to NoirBass's topic in Basses For Sale
One of the few high street manufacturers where consistency is such that you can be pretty confident that one of their instruments will be good, without even touching it. When playing these in the past I thought they were particularly good - a really well designed and useful bass; I personally much prefer a pickup selector switch and master tone and volume. I suspect that this one is an awful lot of bass for not much cash. Glwts -
Let’s try to find a date and venue Phil. Incidently, the space for the “stage” was restricted at open mic and the 8” tops helped as even the 12” would have seemed intrusive. I was very pleased with the sound of the vocals and acoustic guitar. The nice thing about s sub of any size is that it is not in the sight lines of the audience.

Set of rack mount bars for a GK RB amp. I haven’t owned a GK amp for several years but they would have come off of either a 1001RB II or a 700RB III as I owned both. The bars are complete with all parts including screws. No trades thanks. Price includes shipping to locations within the UK. I took the photos myself and I am blind, so my apologies if they look like they were taken by a drunk person.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
The fasting showman replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I owned a USA G&L Fallout a few years back with a tribute model as a backup. From a fetish the object point of view, I wish I still had the USA one with it's quarter sawn neck and fancy tuners BUT....sonically it was no better at all than the Tribute. My only basses now are 2 tribute Fallouts, one with flats one with rounds. It's a strange feeling, having played bass for 40 years; you feel there should be a justification for having a vintage fender ( those days are gone now for me) or some other bass with kudos. The brute truth is that in the band I'm in, the basses I currently own work better than anything else I've tried. At around £300 s/h each. OK I've upgraded the tuners, but for no good reason really. I think, like Danelectro guitars ( I read an interview with Lindy Fralin where he said the stock pickups in his Korean Dano where perfectly good enough), by their essence 30 inch scale basses are ' good enough ' at a lower price point than 34 inch scale. You can try and make them more ornate but perhaps the inherent lack of dead spots and the bloom of notes up the dusty end makes them great value and utility. Just my experience anyway. -
12 o’clock does seems to be the standard move with all Markbass amps and FOH engineers are usually happy with the level they get from that. Most venues that have Markbass gear in-house will already have their line out pre-set to 12 so it must be a decent signal level at that setting
