    Bartolini 6RC Pickup. This is a direct drop-in for your Rickenbacker bridge pickup. Only selling as I am using an alternative in my 4003. Just a bit of shine on the top of the pup where the string rubs a little. Bass Direct have these new at £118 < only asking £75, UK postage included. PM for any more info, thanks for looking! SB 😀

    I think this is the best way to look at things. What’s the budget?

    For Sale, my as new Sandberg California VT in shell pink. This bass was purchased a few weeks ago and is stunning in every respect. I have changed the strings for Labella Low Tension flats which sound fabulous if you like that old school vintage sound. Whilst I haven’t got scales I can assure you this bass is exceptionally light. I guess it’s around 8lbs, maybe even a little lighter. Bass Direct have one in stock at the moment which is almost identical at a little under £2200 and under 8lbs in weight. I have never really been taken with aged looks but this is very subtle indeed, the description ‘soft aged’ is very apt in this case. You may wonder why I am selling this wonderful instrument. Well I am a casual player and already have a custom Alpher bass and clearly having two high quality basses is overkill in my situation. I have no interest in collecting so I have decided to let this one go even though it is only around 6 weeks old. If you like this type of look and want a virtually brand new instrument for a substantial reduction on the new price please get in touch. The bass comes with a quality gig bag but unfortunately I have no box to ship it in so it will have to be a meet up or collection to hand the bass over in person. If you have any questions please do let me know. Thanks for looking.

    wowser wowser wowser words fail me on just how good it sounds bass flat mid about 10 o clock treble flat ultra bass in ultra hi in mid swith in the middle gain just on the edge with a mark bass club 1x15 cab with my 4003 it's amazing I didn't even spend that long on it and found the sound I have a couple of interesting gigs coming up in August so it'll get a proper work out truly fat

  14. HeadlessBassist
    Also, check the E-string doesn't have too many windings on the tuner shaft. Just two or three winds will ensure that the string is suitably pushed down on the shaft. That can make a huge difference to the sound. Failing that, try (as others have said) a lighter gauge string. Sometimes a slightly lighter gauge will give you more tension. My Nate Mendel Precision is on my usual Elixir 40-95 set and it has massive punch and bottom end definition, but a lot of that comes from the nitro/ash/SD Quarter Pounder combination.

    I saw the trailer for Spinal Tap 2 yesterday. I *really* want to like it, and it definitely has a few funny parts. I'm fairly certain that it won't be good though. I hope to be proven wrong.

    A lot of cool entries this month! Seems to be a proggy trend, that's good in my book!

    Logically, a brass, or other metal nut would seem to make sense for tonal consistency, unless your frets are either plastic or bone. But then - I don't understand why every bass or guitar doesn't have a zero-fret, and the nut simply acts as a string guide. I suspect tradition is the answer, and is also why bits of dead animal still get glued onto stringed instruments.

    Is it just me seeing a lot of broken links? Edit: as you were, it is just me! Seems to have resolved itself!

    That’s a good point. Aside from Sire, I always found that the pickups on cheaper basses lacked depth (bass frequencies) in their pickups. The originator of Sire was an electrician/ engineer, much like the founder of Markbass. My MIM P bass had American standard pups but I improved it a lot by swapping them for Lindy Fralin

    Hi, I'm looking to raise some cash at the moment, so not really interested in trades. Thanks 👍🏻

    Yeah I've got Hx Native and used to have a Stomp. Helix is good, but it's just not fun for me.

    I bought an Ashdown cab off Alex. Absolute credit to Basschat. Couldn’t have been more helpful - even dropped the cab off at a friend’s house near a gig he was playing, which saved me a couple of hours of driving. Thanks again Alex

    Shipping should be possible as I'm getting a new cab in a couple of weeks so I can recycle the packaging from that.

    Arrr thanks very much for your lovely feedback. It was a pleasure to meet you yesterday and I’m looking forward to working with you on your next idea!!!
