Palmer Wipper Passive Di box. £50 including UK postage. -
I use my best bass for anything bass related. No point having a best and not using it. To me most expense doesn't mean best, but I use my most expense bass as well (it's the same one in my case).

One thing to consider with effects, is the correct order to get the tone you want. It's not always obvious what goes first etc, even if you know what effects are used. In this case something like the HX Strop is a lot easier to swap the order of the separate effects than a wired pedal board. Personally id try and do it all in the Stomp first.

How Do You Keep Your Band Gigs Exciting?
bassbiscuits replied to Bluewine's topic in General Discussion
At my last gig the guitarist had various broken string/tuning problems in between songs and me and the drummer ended up busking various 70s TV themes to amuse the audience in the meantime. It became a bit of a thing as the night went on, and was a lot better than awkward silence and shuffling about onstage. -
These are underrated! The low and high controls are super handy on bass 👌 -

I've got a gig bag that can be included for free and have dug out this cardboard box that could be put within a bigger cardboard box (a bike box that I'd cut down) and padding if postage is preferred. -
A long story... scratching my itch for a semi-acoustic bass I got my mitts on a Hagstrom Viking in natty sunburst. After a good clean and a setup I slapped on some GHS medium Scale flats and got down to playing. The good - some nice plunky '60s tones. The bad - neck dive (OK with grippy strap), odd ergonomics - the brige is up near the centre of the body (20 frets to body neck) which means your right hand falls over the bridge - you have to shove everything to the right to get anywhere near the neck pickup. The worst selector switch - a rotary six way (A / A+B / B and same with coil splits) with chicken head knob - a right flimsy crackly mess. Replaced with a Switchcraft short toggle (binned the meh coil splits) - so much better. Didn't play it a lot TBH, but when bro came round for a soul jam it seemed appropriate - out came the Hagstrom showing a big ding at the lower body edge. Closer inspection shows the top coming away from the side - hmmm... I did not knock it, it's been safe in the rack - and I live alone with no pets... looks like the glue gave out under pressure? Out with the G cramps and leather pads but no way will the gap close without totally crushing the thing... So any ideas for a fix? Drip in CA glue to stabilise? Sand down the high part and attempt a finish touch up?

I’ve had this but not as acute as your episode. For what it’s worth, I eventually had to see a consultant because it kept recurring in a milder form (and still does a bit when I get run down). She gave me these exercises to do which basically involve making yourself so dizzy that you nearly lose your breakfast. If you persevere, you eventually get your brain to compensate. It works. I could trust myself to ride a motorbike again and do all normal activities. These days, you probably don’t need to see a consultant, you can probably find the exercises on t’internet, e.g. https://www.entuk.org/patients/conditions/93/cawthornecooksey_exercises/ Good luck and recover quickly!

I totally forgot to add that in , Thanks Clarky... -
May be worth adding the weight Brian? That could seal the deal for someone. To me it looks very Peter Hook (ie cool)

Simple but very effective....

Sometimes but not got anything booked in for the future. I've done all my travelling this summer unfortunately. I do have the box from the Ampeg 410 that has replaced this so I can see if it fits and then look at courier pricing. - Today

Yep. Contacted the all knowing Dave at Ashdown ...... Replacement bulb on its way. Fantastic product support as usual.!!! 👍 -
I dropped a b******k. This is the bass part to the track 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' from the 2017 Django Bates album, 'Saluting Sergeant Pepper' with the Frankfurt Radio Big Band. There is no way to post the tune itself on here and the only way to hear it is to buy the album. Sorry! https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/sgt-peppers-lonely-hearts-club-band-django-bates/

What I love about these classic BB basses is how rock and roll they look. This BB300 is a really simple one-pickup bolt-on bass, yet with the speed knobs, reverse P pickup and heart shaped tuners...it just looks so classy. Love it!

People the same age as us and into rock music. I should say some of our arrangements have more bite than the originals 😁

I'm going to go back to an EHB1005MS Sea Foam Green, which a bit mental as I've bought/sold two previously, they aren't perfect but I miss it! No other 5 (including the new EHBs) tick as many boxes for me. Price ✅ Weight/balance ✅ Multiscale ✅ Headless ✅ Passive mode, pickup blend, sweepable mids ✅

I’ve re-read some of her posts last night as we did communicate on threads. I think I saw a picture once, blonde lady with a glass of wine ?
