    That's lovely, Lozz. I was playing a rather nice Sandberg PM 5-string earlier today - I've never seen the J-type before. Very smart! 😎👍

  5. prowla
    Yep - that neck is a good un!

    It may have been a deal with me at Frankley Services for a Natural 5 string ray 😜

    It lives!!! I owned this bass about 10 years ago!!! Nice to see it again!

    Nice one Lozz, that's a fabulous weight and a fine looking bass. By comparison my CIJ P bass, which I thought was light at 7.6 pounds, appears to be a boat anchor, haha!

    Bought a pedal from Greg last week. Very quick despatch and wrapped well. Faultless transaction. Thoroughly recommended. Thanks again.

    Thanks. That looks quite cool. Ive not seen that one before. Ali Express has it for £22.50 so I’ll take a punt on that. I like the idea of not needing an app for the HPF/LPF, although i also think the app looks quite good. Those are the only control's id need. I’ll order one now. Good call. EDIT: Maybe not, it looks like it’s powered from the computer. is that right? I dont want it connected as a USDB device (other than to load IR’s). Ive had hum/noise and all sorts when ive used other gear like this. for me it has to be a PSU.

    I don't have a digital caliper to measure it with such exact precision. But I imagine those specifications can be found on the Fodera website.

    My Indonesian Squier P-bass Special has a neck like a matchstick. It's still about my favourite bass even though I've moved on to 5-string for the last couple of years. It's a PJ with P body and J neck, circa 2004. I bought it from the BC classifieds many years ago for not a lot at all. I gigged it for many years, preferring it over much more expensive basses

    I love this. Respect is earned not demanded. I once took my aluminium double bass with Golden Slaps to a stellar luthier who was fixing a vintage Hawkes bass worth maybe 20 times more. He treated me and the bass with the same respect as the super expensive bass.

  20. AttitudeCastle started following Just got a EBS MB3, need a cheap IR loader for headphone practice.
  21. AttitudeCastle
    I just go the MVave IR box for my pocket rig and it's nice solid, easy, has it's own headphone out and can do audio via USB (there's no volume control for the USB which is a faff. but non issue in your case), XLR out and has High pass / Low Pass knobs too. Comes loaded with it's own IR's but they can be replaced via the app. The stock one's I've found "okay" but loaded my own and am having fun. I've not used it but was also recommended the Sonicake IR loader, also has an XLR out and your own IR's can be loaded into the slots. Can be had online for £35-40 Both super cheap, I got the Mvave for £20 or so. Ordered it and the Mvave Chocolate Plus mini bluetooth midi controller, both together was £40 delivered to my door, the future is now! Part of why I went for the Mvave was as I knew I was getting the midi controller and they use the same app etc.

    Paul, a chum of mine runs https://www.elitestringworks.com I could see if he’d be interested in coming along to do set ups and other straightforward tech work at the event. We had a friend of Nicks do that some years ago and it went down well.
  24. ratman
    Nice one. I'm glad you got it sorted.
  25. JazzyJ
    Dropped off the Stentor this morning. The chap said that the bass is in good condition apart from the bridge, which he assured me will be sorted without the need for a replacement. I've left it at the shop, dropping off a set of Innovation silver slaps when they arrive. When I mentioned rockabilly, there was a slight snort of derision. I told him that I thought he had a ridiculous looking moustache (each to their own). We laughed. All is good 👍

    Removed from another project bass I was making. I bought this new. This is a clean and clear Glockenklang preamp. It’s in full working order. https://www.glockenklang.de/en/products/bass_systems/onboard_2-band.htm Volume, Balance, Treble and Bass controls with passive tone circuit activated from Push/Pull volume control. Specs from the Glockenklang website: ‘Onboard preamp 2-band The GLOCKENKLANG 2-band onboard preamp is active/passive switchable (at the volume push/pull), has a balance-pot with no volume dip in center-position, a treble-pot with +/- 18 dB@18 KHz in active mode, acting as classical highcut in passive mode and a bass-pot with +/- 14 dB@40 Hz. Battery-connection is 9 / 18 volts. Due to the high performance electronic, in flat position of the eq you can hear no difference between active and passive mode! It comes pre-wired with highflexible cables.‘ £69 plus shipping. Pete

    Hey all Bought for a bass that I sold, so never used these. DR Pure Blues 45-130. &nbsp £35 shipped in the UK. Pete

    Morning all Up for sale is a set of Squier '77 VMJ pickups. Working perfectly and sound great; I used the bass I got them in for a different build project, so no longer need these. They even come with spring loaded foam, a nice touch. Easy to use for a bitsa build. I'm selling for £27 plus postage. Pete

    Revisiting here, I've sanded the finish off the back of the neck. It was just about ok originally, but I'm no fan of high gloss neck finishes; they get a bit fudgy over time. Much better now (well for me). @prowla was over a few days ago and gave it a thumping.

    Just installed a set of Cobalts (45-105) on my EBMM Stingray Classic. Really like them and they were brighter than I had expected. Not shrill like stainless rounds and maybe more akin to nickels that have been played a couple of times. Just hope they last longer than standard Slinkys, which in my experience are pretty much dead within a few days. May try a lighter set next time if these hold up OK. Cheers
