290mm on the nose, I reckon! Maybe 289.5, if you're splitting hairs.

For ages my number1 budget bass would have been my Dano Longhorn. Last year I picked up a Harmony H22 Batwing , I’d been hoping to find one for years. Love the little thing.

Glad you did the show @martthebass nice thing to do no matter how difficult it was to play there. Huge respect guys. Dave

Bit of a bitter sweet one for Glam Viva last night at a very nice local private club. We’d played this venue back last November and one of the audience requested we play the same venue for her birthday in February. This was booked, sadly she died over Christmas from a massive stroke. The family asked if we would go ahead with it as a tribute to her memory. We were unsure but it turned into a massive party with lots of happy revellers and even a nice fund raiser for a local animal shelter. The buffet was top notch too which pleased our drummer no end. Thats it for a couple of weeks as next weeks gig has been cancelled through lack of ticket sales….we’ve all agreed we won’t take anymore gigs where the organisers are relying on ticket sales to fund.

Surprise gig to go to tonight. My brother's mate had to back out of seeing Mogwai at Bristol Beacon, so I'm the benefactor of that!

What's the going rate for Stingrays nowadays?
peteb replied to Supernaut's topic in General Discussion
To be fair, I don't think that £1.4k for a Stingray like this from a specialist shop is at all bad in today's market. I'm not surprised that if someone tried to sell it privately for £800 that they would get their hand bitten off. -
Not doing much so Having a clear out so will be listing a few things This is a Fantastic d.i. Quite rare in uk,Similar in build but A different take on the reddi .this has a huge transformer, i prefer the sound of this compared to the reddi ,makes stuff sit better imo..great for bass .

Clearing out a few things due to not doing much The real deal for LA-2A compression,owned this for about a year I think it was from the second or third batch (he only makes batches of 25 about every 6-8 months) Meticulously built to replicate the teletronix la-2a . Can be used as a limiter too. Very rare over here I think it's just over £1200 to buy/import one now. £875 Heres a detailed review using on bass

Last night, played with Nine Lives at the Balaclava in Fraserburgh. Quite an odd night of two halves. First half was pretty busy and we had some dancers up. Second half got a bit quieter, and everyone seemed more reserved, although I did note some head nodding and singing along. So we got finished, and then, to my surprise given the relative tumbleweed which was the second half, got 4 different folk say to me how much they enjoyed the gig, we were amazing etc. One fellow bass player too praising my performance - always nice to have one's ego fluffed a little! Gear was Ibanez ATK200 then G&L L-1000 into the usual cubular black and yellow trouser flappers.

I missed this thread entirely! Gorgeous, very stealthy. Wonder where you got the idea for a black stained ACG? 😜

Still carry a pitch fork although I haven’t used it in decades. Very thankful for little clip on tuners.

I've done a couple of reheaersals with these and my mate who does a solo act uses them for his PA. They are kind of typical of these systems, they don't go as loud as you are used to and the sound is OK, cleanish in the middle, not a lot of top end sparkle and bass is very much there but a bit wooly. They aren't completely awful and you could gig with one of the quieter sorts of music but they wouldn't be my first choice for versatilty of anything you'd describe as rock music. If you wanted to do recorded music at a party they'd do fine so long as you were satisfied with less than nightclub volumes.

Same for me - in our high school band I had an 'A' tuning fork in my bag. When we had a keyboard player join the band I got the 'A' from her. I forget how/whether the guitarist tuned up

Pitch pipes for me too, although I found them rubbish for ages (they were fine, it was my ears that were at fault). TBH, once I could discern pitch, I tuned to records (E or A usually) and then harmonics from there.

Mono bass sleeve bass gig bag in excellent condition with only light use - the lightest gig bag in Mono’s range so easy to lug around but still great protection. Photos to follow ASAP Need to source a box if postage is required Info from mono- The Bass Sleeve® Case is designed to be a minimalist solution for traveling light and simple, and it is where MONO's innovative protection and high quality construction standards are merged into a super slim and stylish design. 360° PROTECTION Like the Vertigo™, the Bass Sleeve® Case is Top-Loading® for quick, stand-up access. Its design allows you to quickly unzip the case and pull your bass out from the top. This is enabled by a hidden diagonal hinge on the front panel of the case. Once unzipped, the case naturally opens out and to the right. No need to lay the case down on the floor. Easy access. The Bass Sleeve® Case features a slimmer variation of the Headlock® — MONO's patented neck suspension system. This slimmer Headlock® is molded from solid, shock-absorbing EVA rubber to protect the neck and headstock from impact during falls. When your bass is zipped-in, its neck is automatically secured inside the Headlock®'s contoured groove. At the bottom, the case features a super slim EVA insole to keep the body off the ground and protect the strap pin from bottoming-out when the case is put down too hard. SMART STORAGE The Bass Sleeve® Case features a messenger bag style storage pouch that's perfect for small laptops, tablets, notebooks, cables and other extras that you might need when traveling light. A small interior mesh pocket keeps those little, critical items close at hand. BUILT TO LAST WEAR IT OUT MONO cases are built to military specs, using only high-test materials with extreme resistance to abrasion and the elements. Inside, the plush lining protects delicate custom finishes. Outside, the water-resistant shell keeps you on the move, rain or shine. 100% animal free. RIVETED HANDLE & CUSTOM STEEL BUCKLE Rock solid, industrial webbing handles come standard on MONO cases. Bar-tack stitching and steel rivets reinforce for strength, while high grade webbing provides a super comfortable grip. A custom steel buckle is used to secure the storage pouch with industrial seatbelt webbing. Simple and secure with a nice touch of style. DIMENSIONS & FITTING LIKE A GLOVE Internal Dimensions: 48" x 15.5" x 3" (122cm x 39.4cm x 7.6cm) External Dimensions: 50.5" x 17" x 2.5" (128.3cm x 43.2cm x 6.4cm) External Pocket Dimensions: 10.5" (Short) / 17" (Tall) x 14" x 2" (26.7cm / 43.2cm x 35.6cm x 5.1cm) Weight: 5lbs (2.3kg)

Yeh, I looked on line but the only demos are people spending time adding reverb or doing robot voices, neither of which are things I need to use ever!
