  1. Past hour
  2. It's got some 'mojo' if you get up close to it; a few cracks in the lacquer and a couple of very minor dings, but overall in pretty good shape for a 45-year-old. In better nick than I was at that age anyway
  3. I have had a few trade offers, but, just to clarify, I'm not looking for a trade. Thanks
  4. Select a picture to open it. Tap on it twice. That opens up to more than the full screen, enabling you to use the cursor to closely inspect the pictures. They can actually be zoomed to pretty much life size. Perhaps LowEnd Lobster's demo bass has not had the rosewood nourished. The board on mine is excellent rosewood that is fully nourished. I maintain my basses in top condition as anybody who has bought from me will know.
  5. Thanks, Mokl. I was running two as a vertical stack – best live sound I've ever had!
  6. 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

  8. Because of where i live in countryside i've never really had a social side to bands in 26yrs of living here. The only social side to the Glam band is we always have a great laugh together at rehearsals and gigs but we don't meet up to socialise as such, not even a coffee and a chat which is odd but it seems to work for us. Same with the punk band i was in. Dave
  9. I agree mate, I’ve had my fair share of time wasters over the years. These days if I don’t think the project can be gig worthy in 3-4 months I wouldn’t bother. I know some like ‘rehearsal bands’ for the social aspect but I’ve always been in bands where there’s a social aspect and gigs.
  10. Is the twin pick up MM called a Stingray now ? I remember them being called MM Sabres back in the 80's. The band King comes to mind for some odd reason. 😂 Is that what the 4H & 4HH means ? I'm no expert in MM basses but just curious as always. 🤩 Dave
  11. I emailed La Bella to ask whether the Super Polished strings would be available in short scale, and I've just got an email saying they hope to launch by the end of the month! I really like those so I am excited!
  12. Spent 6 weeks touring around the French & Swiss alps over December/January, & my BB 615 was one of my picks for the bass I was taking! (That, along with my G&L, but the Yammy came out on top… because the G&L weighs about the same as a small black hole)
  13. I did have a Celtic/Gaelic rock band thing too but over the past 3 weeks i'm getting nowhere with them trying to get a first meet up just to see what everyone looks like and thinks. Just no enthusiasm for anything. I've tried on several occasions to arrange a meet up for a chat but no replies. I've more or less given up on them and will wait till the end of this week to let them know i've decided to go with the Blues rock band. I can't be bothered with time wasters in bands. Its my pet hate. You either commit to a band or don't bother getting involved. Why post an advert for band members if you don't want to actually follow up on things. Dave
  14. The only downside is its a start up band but that's ok for me. I'm a fast learner and can easily get thru a set list in a few weeks if really pushed. My biggest worry was whether or not there's a market for it and what venues will accept that kind of band. I'm a little bit removed from that style over the years. Dave
  15. I’d lean towards accidental discovery. And say you have a wonderful wife.
  16. Much appreciated!
  17. Looks like new, so I guess the refurbishment worked.
  18. Beautiful
  19. Well that’s a pretty thing! P pickup and piezo bridge. A rare one, I think… good luck with the sale!
  20. The Ballard of easy rider - The Byrds
  21. You know it's going to be a good gig when you can walk up to the bar with your bass and order a beer... The Plough, Newport Pagnell, last Friday night. Pub reopening! Went with the stingray. Cozy setup.... <squeeeze>
  22. Anybody have any complaints with Alan's usual finish on the neck? He mentioned that my build was eligible for an oil finish, and I thought I'd prefer the added protection from the standard finish, as I plan on using this bass as my daily driver.
  23. Today
  24. The last time I watched Eurovision it was being presented by Katie Boyle ...
  25. That looks incredible 🤩 I'd be happy with that natural looking finish you're going for 👍🏼 Fantastic work 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
