MacDaddy replied to NancyJohnson's topic in Events
A double blind p-bass shootout would be interesting. Various p's at price points from the cheapest Squier to a USA custom shop. Er, anyone bringing a USA custom shop precision? ☺️ -
Jools Holland on Later tries to turn every song into a "featuring me doing meaningless widdles". Some might say this is overdone, but I like it!

Ampeg is always a safe bet for definitive rock tones, the great thing about the V4B is that you can wind up the power tubes at decent stage volume in a small venue. Lovely amp

My latest

Up for sale is a MM Stingray 5 Special, with an ebony fingerboard and a rather fetching Smoked Chrome finish, now discontinued I believe. I bought it last year, but despite the fabulous build quality and finish, being light for a fiver at 4.3kg with great balance, fabulous Stingray tones, and being so easy to play, I find myself reverting to my old Lakland 55-94, which just feels like home. Immaculate condition, complete with MM branded Mono semi-rigid case. Specs are here: https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/stingray-5-specialhttps://dingwallguitars.com/bass/sp1/ Collection preferred from near Woking in Surrey, but I can post within the UK at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, no trade offers please.-

I have got a wireless doofer, but never use it as it's another thing to worry about! May try again in the future... The actual problem was that I had the amp on the floor in order to lift the cab, and I'd moved my pedalboard so far back so guitarman had room that I literally had only a foots-length to stand in. Which meant hte slightest wrong move or attempted jig would cause me to kick the cable out. Next time I shall carve out my space a bit more!
-
Damn, I want this one too..! -
Thank you! -
My 44 year old Peterson looks pretty damn good in the living room.

Enough people have asked this question - or variations on it - that I should probably take this opportunity to reveal my God-like bass-playing abilities. 🙄 Grosman Piezo Jazz.mp3

I mt up with a fellow bassist the other day, I bought a Rick higain pickup from him. On my clank journey he was telling me about his Ricks and amps He played me a clip on something he was working on, plugged into a V4B. It sounded amazing Who has experience of both of these amps please, I feel it should be the Ampeg all the way For my tribute gigs when I'm not supplying PA and lights, I would consider one of these amps your thoughts my learned friends

..and it’s 4.7 Kg heavy.. -
Up for sale is a brand new Dingwall SP-1, their new P/J passive bass. I got it from Bass Freaks in Belgium a couple of weeks ago, as there's very few in circulation in the UK as yet. Most dealers here won't have any stock for some time, so here's a chance to get hold of one now. I've used it at two rehearsals, and it's light (4kg), responsive, tonally very versatile, and really easy to play, but I've been using active basses since the 80's, and I find myself reverting to my old Lakland 55-94, which just feels like home. As new, unmarked, and comes complete with gigbag and tool kit. The list price will be £2199 when they finally arrive on these shores in any numbers, so I'm taking a hit on the price, but I suppose that's the cost of early adoption! Specs are here: https://dingwallguitars.com/bass/sp1/ Collection preferred from near Woking in Surrey, but I still have the original shipping carton, so can post within the UK at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, no trade offers please.-

Yes they are similar sounding amps
-
Thanks! Yes it is the original neck to my knowledge. Which is high, but not Fender Expert level! - Today
-
Is that the original neck sir? wonderful bass btw, I have both the 2012 iterations of these basses.
-
I understand, it probably looks like I am trying to put a sneaky new add up.lol
-
£1450 this weekend -
Hi.Paid £7 for the add been on since May,just wanted to change the pics as I changed the scratch plate,maybe as you say does not entitle me to change all the pics ,I can see the logic,
-
Thanks Pete, The crazy thing is that it plays & sounds at least ‘as good’ as a custom jobbie Rob made for me around ten years ago at over five times the price! & being very ‘Old School’ - I actually prefer the dry woody sound of this one + wang the bridge pickup wide open & we’re in Jaco territory - the sound that is, definitely not my playing😂😂🙈🙈👍… -
Selling this drum kit on behalf of my brother who can’t play anymore due to ill health The kit can be broken up so if you spot something that catches you eye let me know and we can work out a decent price for you
