I’ve got a lovely AVRI 64 Jazz. It’s nice n light but a bit neck heavy. Can I get lightweight tuners that look like the original or is it a matter of me swapping them for mor modern looking lightweight things?

Having replaced this very lightly used (never left our smoke free home) Roland Vdrum kickpad with the the extortionate KDQ-8, this is no longer required. So it's up for grabs. If required, I could post it if we work out a price. It's in excellent condition and working perfectly, and I'll clean the dust off too (only just noticed !) Any questions, let me know. -
Truly magnificent and rare in this finish!- 1 reply

I had the bog-standard Gen 9 model (I think) iPad before I got my CQ20B, and it has been fine. According to the App Store, you need at least iPadOS 15 to run A&H's MixPad app. Many CQ users run Mixing Station, a third party app that will control most of the digital mixers, and is favoured by many professional sound techs. The reason is that it is multiplatform so you can buy a licence for each mixer and set the UI up to suit yourself. Mixing Station still runs perfectly on iOS 11 or Android 5 devices. The cost of Mixing Station for the CQ is £9.99 so not outrageous.

Well I said it sounds like a P-bass but some boy on TalkBS tells me that's impossible and would I kindly re-string the bass with zingy roundwounds, somehow it'll better reflect the pink and blue lines he's drawn on graph paper. Boy is a genius, doesn't need to play your bass or know what pickups you used. Nope, one look at a picture tells him "there's a 20dB drop off in the higher Mids" 😳 He could be right or maybe my penchant for single coil P-bass gives me a different view on "sounds like a P-bass" 😁 Anyway, I'm sticking with like a P-bass and have vowed to never read another TalkBS post by someone on my "ignore member" list, they're on the list for a reason 😁 Should say it's not the loudest P-bass so I'll likely try the coils in pairs.

Why are venue house bass amps always such utter sh#te?
Bill Fitzmaurice replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
It's simple, whoever bought the rig wasn't a bass player. 😒 -
Having tried LM2 and SA450 heads in dealerships in 2008 a couple times I just didn't hear what all the fuss was about. However, the first time I played through an LM2 was at an open jam night at The Square, Harlow. It was driving an old Laney (or Peavey, the memory fades) 410 and sounded amazing in the mix, with the trademark MB punch. From that point onwards I've gigged MB ten times more often than my other amps.

I bought a 2023 model of this with less RAM and for nearly double the price, back then. Has performed really well since. It's not the fastest chipset in terms of booting up, but that's a non issue when you have so much else to be getting on with setting up pre gig! Now ridiculously good value at under £60 on Amazon.

Dan Dare replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
If venues provided high quality stuff, it would either be trashed or nicked. Sad but true. -
It’s probably too new. Most of the deal might be free psu or brand carry bag type things.

Chatgpt has just recommended Lenspeed logistics as a courier to potentially transport my Ricky if I sell it. Having just had DHL destroy a one off custom guitar, I was looking for a better service than the usual suspects and wondered if anybody had any experience of this company and a rough price for a £3k bass transported within the UK fully insured.

An absolutely beautiful bass, Glwts, joe -
All you can do is the obvious - play it slowly with a metronome and then build up speed. As I said before, I play it with hammer-ons live, I can't play fast enough to pick every note! If you have to play it with a band, just play the pentatonics - no one will know the difference! I played it this way when a band got me up at a gig a few months ago. A mate in the audience who plays in a very well known band, came up to me afterwards to say how great I sounded - obviously, I didn't tell him that I had played the 'cheat' version! 😉 Next ones to learn are 'Ramble On' and 'Good Times Bad Times', both of which are a pretty decent workout for any bass player!

Hi all, Here we have my 2022 Musicman Stingray Special in Amethyst Sparkle finish. Bought in July last year as I'd always wanted one, but a new car is on the horizon, this is being sold to go towards the deposit. It's a 2022 model, in Amethyst Sparkle, Gold hardware & Roasted Maple neck. Rosewood fingerboard with 22 Stainless steel frets. 18v electronics with 3-band active preamp. Neodymium pickup. Weight is a lovely 3.8kg. Condition I'd put at 8.5/10. The body is unmarked. A small nick on the headstock and a very small patch of light pitting on the control plate are the only marks of any kind. The nut has a slight chip on the side of it, but it doesn't affect the actual operation of it. The string sits snugly with no-issue/movement. Currently has DiMarzio Strap lock system in place, although is reversible if not your thing. Not looking for any trades or offers. Located in Moreton in Marsh, on the Oxfordshire/Warwickshire/Gloucestershire border. Will not post something of this value due to issues in the past, however, as always, I will pretty much travel anywhere aside from the outer extremities of the UK for a handover/meetup. Comes with original hardcase and Musicman accessories bag. Any questions please feel free to ask! See my feedback thread also!-

Slade was our opener for our final set and did the job of getting them on the floor. It was the only Xmas song we played though as we just gave them a segued onslaught of dancing tunes to keep them on the floor. Most of our Xmassy songs are done tongue in cheek and they were not really the sort of crowd for that. Tonight should be better suited.

Designed to replicate the sound and feel of a traditional kick drum. Great condition: tested and in full working order. Will work with all Roland TD modules. Selling due to kit upgrade.

The DM610 is a large bookshelf/standmount speaker from renowned hi-fi brand B&W, featuring a well-braced 30-litre sealed cabinet with 8-inch mid-bass driver. The larger driver and extra cabinet space create a much better low end range than from most similar speakers. This model allows for either bi-wiring or bi-amplification. These speakers present clean tight bass response, surprisingly clear mids for such a large driver and the pleasant highs that the well-designed B&W tweeter at that time was famous for. They can be driven quite loud, enough for the physical effect of the bass to be felt without audible distortion or a sense of sound compression. Both speakers are in Very Good condition, especially for their vintage. All-original, complete with full grilles (one of which has a small hole, shown in the final photo). Only £125. Collection from Bournemouth BH6 preferred. Here comes the science bit… Type: 2-way closed, shelf speaker Colour: Ash black veneer Dimensions: 490 x 236 x 303 mm (H x W x D) Weight: 7.8 kg Recommended amplifier power: 30-150 W Frequency response: 70 - 20,000 Hz (±2 dB) Crossover: 2500 Impedance: 4 Ohm -
Thanks, Mokl. I was running two as a vertical stack – best live sound I've ever had! -
Well, a CQ20b is on its way to me having popped up at a very decent price, complete with case. Entering the digital age! So I need something like an iPad to run it. Anyone got any recommendations or advice? Main concern is long term reliability and stability. I might explore using it for other music things but I don't want to splash another grand on an iPad pro especially if the bog standard one looks to have a good lifespan

Lozz196 replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
I agree, for some reason us bassists - and drummers to a certain extent - seem to end up with the “can’t you just use that and make life easy” situations. In times like these a Sansamp or equivalent is our friend, might not be a great onstage sound through whatever pony rig we end up with but at least out front get a decent one. -
Fender blacktop jazz bass. Only played a few times, excellent condition. Includes original fender hard case. Made in Mexico, 2013 model. Champagne/pearl colour. I have swapped the pick guard for the purple tortoise shell. Original black pick guard comes with sale. A few of the pick guard screws have some rust on. All specs can be seen in the last few pictures. Sad to get rid of it but I am no longer the bassist in a band so have little use for it. Sounds incredible, the dual split coil pick ups give an amazing tone. Any questions feel free to ask.-

I’m trying to learn Jolene and “the other bit of the chain”. I tried the latter on a “wing it basis” and “smashed it” according to the OM hostess but I didn’t get it right enough for my satisfaction (root notes and the occasional slide” was my winging it attempt)
