I wouldn't want to be in a band whose music/lyrics or image was of some disposition which really didn't align with mine. Whether or not I could be in a band or associate with someone with opposing or extreme views would depend upon how forcefully they were inclined to forward their views and how accepting they were that mine were different. Another consideration is whether their views expressed or known elsewhere led to any repercussions/issues. Essentially if anyone made me feel uncomfortable or threatened then I'd move on.

GMR Soundboard custom 4 - Trade for a 5 string
Paddy777 replied to Philly's topic in Basses For Sale
This might be worth a look if you’re after a 5st one - they’ll no doubt take that in Trade too Id have thought, although will probably cost you a bit of cash too, which might not be ideal! https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/product/gmr-soundboard-5-string-pre-owned/ I really like GMR basses - that’s a proper bargain for £550! -
For sale, Dimarzios latest incarnation of Billy Sheehans signature p bass pickups. Chrome, radiused covers to follow the radius of the fretboard and rounded off edges for comfort. Hot as you'd expect from a pickup designed for Billy. Claimed to be perfect for using with distortion by Dimarzio, I don't so couldn't comment. I have used these for a number of differing gigs and they are by no means a one trick pony. Postage included to UK addresses. Cheers

I'm not sure if you are a lefty like me, or the photo is reversed as sometimes happens online. I've found that lefty's need to be extra-cautious when flipping equipment because when something is gone, it's often really gone. And finding a replacement or even something similar if seller's remorse sets in is very difficult indeed.

Yes, they were. It’s where mine came from.

Barefaced Big Twin 2 Gen 3 or 2 x BB3 stack
Dan Dare replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
If you're only doing larger gigs, the BT would make sense. If not, the scalable nature of two smaller cabs is helpful, in that you can just carry what you need. Perhaps a Super Compact would be a good choice, rather than another BB3. That would give you the equivalent of a BT. -

You generally get what you pay for in these cases, sure the Behringer will give you a signal, but a Rupert Neve Designs will sound better. I had an old BSS box for years, doing exactly what you describe, worked absolutely fine till I ran through an RND box at a mates studio, then I had to change up. Remember, all a DI box does is change the impedance of your bass output to match the mic level required by whatever mic pre-amp you have available, which will have a more significant effect on your tone anyway. Generally, I shy away from the likes of Behringer, and would suggest BSS, Klark Technic, Radial, Palmer etc. but if it's not going to be integral to your rig on a permanent basis, then try the cheaper ones.

Interesting. Not experienced that but also not used one with a huge range of instruments.

Bassassin started following Alnus Basses - Anyone got one?

It's a sad reality that every time there's an excited-sounding thread title naming a bass brand I'm unfamiliar with, I have a little bet with myself it'll be yet another bloody fake Precision. I probably owe myself around 20 grand by now. Although it'd be 25 if I occasionally took a punt on it being a 15-string singlecut coffee-table.

A tentative trade offering - I recently traded a 5 string for this and now need to get a five string back in the arsenal so its last in first out! This is a great bass, it is all that I wanted, playability is effortless, weight is great for long gigs and it looks stunning. I've lifted the quote below from a previous sale of this which explains the bass better than I can! I will add a link to the last ad, but I've added some new sunny photos. 'These were very expensive new and this has had a lot of work done to it. It had a pro set up at ATB guitars and sports a customised Bartolini preamp from Dex audio with a very narrow range that just keeps it all super useable in the real world. Controls are: volume, bass, treble, with a pull for low mid boost and a switch for each pickup to toggle between series/parallel/single coil It has an almost Stingray ish sound from the humbuckers and is surprisingly warm and rich. Neck is slim and flat, like a jazz bass meets a status, the most comfy neck I’ve ever owned. (In Over 300 basses!!) The balance is spot on and the truss works fine etc. ' A 5 string version of this would suit me perfectly but they are as rare as the proverbial rocking horse.., so ideally a lightweight jazz of some sort, ideally passive would be good.
