  1. Past hour
  2. Yeh Harry Styles, Olivia Rodrigo, and Billie Eilish are yet to achieve success at chart level 😂
  3. Pictures to follow later today. For sale is my barely used Valeton Bass Dapper in the original box with PSU and mini manual. I've used it maybe 3 to 4 times at home only and it was originally purchased to use as a DI into the PA. Now that I'm winding down and getting rid of stuff, this is up for grabs. It has several components, most of which are clones of well known gear: - Tuner - Compressor/boost - Envelope filter - Drive - Octaver - Chorus - XLR DI output and an effects loop £60 including UK postage.
  4. Price drop - £155 includes UK postage Hi, I’m selling my Aguilar Octamizer version 2. Well looked after and very little use. £185 price includes UK Postage. Here’s a bit of info from Aguilar: AN ALL-ANALOG OCTAVE PEDAL THAT CREATES A WIDE RANGE OF MUSICAL SOUNDS AN OCTAVE BELOW YOUR BASS SIGNAL. Modeled with old school and new school needs in mind, the Octamizer features independent volume controls for both the Clean and Octave sounds. This makes dialing in the exact amount of each a cinch. The two discrete signal paths also have their own tone controls that were specifically designed to enhance and expand their musical possibilities. The CLEAN TONE control uses a full spectrum tilt EQ, allowing for the boosting of treble while cutting bass or boosting of bass while cutting treble. This unique circuit allows you to create a clean sound that creates an octave doubling effect or to blend the sounds together for a great thick, snarky synth tone. *Pedal powered by universal 9-volt power supply only. Not included. Proprietary detector circuit for superior tracking Continuously variable multipole low-pass filter for Octave sound Dual filter architecture Full spectrum tilt EQ for clean sound Pedal powered by universal 9-volt power supply only. Not included. Cheers! Michael
  5. Price drop - £205 includes UK postage Hi, I’m selling this set of Aguilar 5 string Jazz Bass pickups (AG 5J-HC) The pickups are brand new and have never been installed or used. £235 price includes UK Postage. Here’s some info straight from Aguilar: ‘THE WARM, PUNCHY TONE OF OUR 60'S ERA JAZZ BASS PICKUP, BUT WITHOUT THE 60-CYCLE HUM, IN A 5-STRING VERSION. Noise-free, classic Jazz Bass tone in a pickup that works great for all playing styles. Featuring our split-coil design, these pickups deliver a deep low-end, rich midrange character, and clear articulation – all with no hum! The AG 5J-HC pickup set is a direct replacement in the Fender Jazz V and many other 5 string J-style basses. Wire: 44 gauge, polyester-nylon wire Magnets: Alnico V Leads: Single conductor, heat resistant Teflon® coated’ Thanks! Michael
  6. What do you mean! You don’t need 3 !!! The more, the merrier 😜
  7. having kinda done that... the key is working out what things work best in a HX stomp or equivalent and what doesn't. And then what doesn't but you can accept the compromise.
  8. That’s what you call normal
  9. it is still almost immaculate. A bit of a case queen these days. I think we did the deal just before/during lockdown 1
  10. Hahaha, I couldn’t resist another one. That red one is absolutely stunning – almost like new from what I remember. It’s also a very good weight. My current one is reasonable but some are really chunky. Fantastic basses
  11. I guess there’s always also the old chestnut that the old music we’re still listening to now is the stuff that was good, and the stuff from back then that was terrible has been justly forgotten.
  12. A HX stomp can be had for £400 used, less if you get a bargain. That won't buy you many single pedals these days, especially when you'll also need a board, some patch cables, a power supply... Edit - Stuck in a boring work meeting ("no updates from me thanks") and got to thinking. My small analogue board is a PT Nano and a Cioks Adam, with a Korg Pitchblack, Darkglass VMT and Tech 21 Paradriver. Thomann tells me that's £715 these days, not including the velcro or the patch cables, and admittedly with the current smallest Cioks unit which does look a little better than the Adam. The HX Stomp is £545. It would be cheaper and smaller for me to buy the Stomp, superglue the 3 switches to tuner, overdrive and amp emulation, and never use any of the other blocks. Madness.
  13. The Japanese Metros are some of the best basses in the world, regardless of money; glwts
  14. I've got one in black and been playing loads recetlntly. Real quality basses. GLWTS
  15. Bargain alert! Ihave a 1980 Elite and that era was superb.
  16. Matching headstock phwoarrr!!!
  17. Today
  18. Hey all, looking to move on my GR Cube 800 1x12 combo. Basically as new condition. Has done two gigs and other than that mainly has been used as a home practice amp. It sounds ace and weighs 9.5kg!! Even still has all the plastic covering the shiny bits. Comes with the manufacturers branded fitted cover. current cost is about £1400 including then cover. So £950 seems a bit of a bargain!

  19. Yes, this is correct. As a bassist, in this style of music the rhythm you play is much more important than getting in other scalar notes or runs. For now I'd stick with playing just the root, 5th and octave of each change for now. Listen to the bassist on track and copy the rhythms even if you choose different notes. You can always get more advanced later. Bb/C is a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slash_chord To clarify, over that chord, continue use the notes C (root) G (fifth) and C (octave) - not Bb and F.
  20. Ah you have the Bb (flat 7th) instead of the 5th at the ends. I think I have to agree with you on that.
  21. Some more photos
  22. Also, please ignore everything ChatGPT says about chord progressions. It's pretty awful at that sort of thing, and regularly just makes stuff up. For instance, here's its take on Red Baron (which just goes G7, C7, and a unision line):
  23. So minor correction, I think it's: Intro: | C |Bb/C |F |Ab Bb| Verse: | C |Bb/C |F |Ab Bb| Prechorus: |F |Ab Bb | Chorus: | C |Bb/C |F |Ab Bb|
  24. Just going to bump this and reduce the price to £250 picked up. If I get no bites at this price, then I'll stick it in the garage under a sheet. I gig around East Anglia, so could do a meet up on my way I suppose.
  25. Bump as looking to fund a Hama Okomota p bass
