First rule of PR, don’t argue with customers Second rule of PR, defo don’t argue with customers when you’ve already lost the argument Third rule of PR, if you’re stupid enough to break Rules 1 and 2, apologise sharpish Most bands using Pirate will have a bass player, there’s a 70% chance that bass player is a member here. Do the math 👍

Terry M. started following Wilton Felder appreciation

He'd only been playing bass for a year when I Want You Back was recorded? Wow!! That's almost given me a complex.I know how I sounded after a year in and it wasn't like that 😄

I think all of the Black Sabbath members have had something of a reinvention in recent times. If the stark reality of the hedonistic exploits of their heyday was laid bare and judged by the morality of the present day, I think they wouldn't be so accepted by the mainstream. I've said this before but it's a bit surreal to me as someone who's been a Sabbath fan since the 1970's to see how they've become part of the establishment and are now (rightly) seen as one of Britain's greatest cultural exports. It was unthinkable forty years ago that Ozzy's eventual death would garner such blanket media coverage and widespread public displays of grief. Sabbath used to be wild, inaccessible and mysterious. I preferred it that way.

Happy Jack started following Korg Kross 61-key all-rounder keyboard
-
So it turns out that buying new keyboards is just as addictive as buying new basses. Who knew? This is a genuinely excellent, light-weight all-rounder of a keyboard, extremely portable, and with four banks of SIXTEEN presets each, making it an ideal gigging unit. I haven't done a factory reset, so these are the settings I used for the presets at the last gig I played with it. Banks A and B are largely populated with presets from the factory (none of which were of any use to me) so my presets are in Bank C and Bank D is IIRC pretty much empty. Strong suits are pianos and brass - especially brass - whilst organs and synths are fine. Weak suit is the strings, which can be tweaked endlessly to get the sound you want but are not as instantly lush as those with - say - Yamaha kit. The carry handle is not just cute - it's really practical, especially at festival-style gigs. On the original padded gigbag, the original power supply plus a photocopied manual. How portable do you want it? This keyboard will even run off batteries with no loss of quality. Gigbag has built-in shoulder straps for gigging by public transport. Basschat is not a great place to sell keyboards (the clue's in the name) so I won't be leaving this here for months. If it hasn't sold within a week or two then off to eBay it will have to go. Trying to gauge prices for pre-owned keyboards is a f***ing nightmare. On eBay I've seen these selling recently for over £400 and I've also seen these selling recently for nearer £200, with no apparent reason for the wide range. Not many at the £200 end, mind. LOL It doesn't help that the Korg Kross II looks pretty much the same (no! really?) and people get confused.

Hi Rob, I’ve spoken with Phil many times but we’ve never actually done a deal, last time was his 72P, he’s mainly guitars but does get some decent basses sometimes
-
Hello Security Person, do your PR people know you’re here? If not, you might want to flag the upcoming drop in revenue? Or are you also the Head of PR (and ‘Artist Support’) 🤔 Quick question. Do you know what the word security means (clue: customers not perishing in fires)?

Silvia Bluejay started following Trace Elliot Elf 2x8 cab
-
Please note: I have *not* taken against that cab in general terms. It's good, and powerful, and clear, but it is definitely ideal for a modern rock/hard rock sound. It is completely unsuitable for our 1950s rock 'n' roll band, with whom we play the vast majority of our gigs. I imagine hubby has got fed up with me stopping him loading the Trace in the car when we gig with Damo And The Dynamites, which is currently, well, all the time.
-
Chris, if I didn't already have a Ui-24 plus a Ui-12 arriving tomorrow morning then I'd have this off you in a flash. I could almost be persuaded that I should do a deal for it anyway so that @Silvia Bluejay and I have a spare for our frontline (>80 gigs a year) mixer. How interesting would a bass need to be to get your attention?
-
I was in contact with the owner of this bass a few months back but lost touch with him, he sold it for a lot less than this asking price and yes he said it was extremely light, my missed oportunity...

Happy Jack started following Trace Elliot Elf 2x8 cab and QSC CP12 Active PA Speaker
-
I bought this to pair with my Trace Elf head and I love it to bits. Sad to relate, @Silvia Bluejay is the sound engineer for my bands and she's taken agin' it, doesn't like the sound, won't let me use it. Not best pleased, but what can you do? My loss, your gain. It's handy that there's a handy carry-handle which handles it duty with ease. Not pristine but a quick wipe with a damp rag would help. As you can see, I was dahhhhhn the lockup when I took these photos, and damp rags were in short supply. Thank God for that! I was getting quite concerned about the Formaldehyde, and positively apoplectic about the Casualdehyde. Listed at a silly-cheap price since I know that the main competitors for this cab have slashed their prices recently.

This one popped up on Facebook - UK Bass Marketplace - Buy, Sell & Trade, but you can find it on his actual website too. It looks the business, and whilst quite pricey, the main reason I'm posting here is that he claims it weighs just 7lbs 13oz, and that is astonishing for a 70's P bass if it's true. Does anyone know the dealer, or has had any dealings with him? https://www.20thcenturytoys.co/all-products/p/1971-fender-precision-bass-sunburst-ohsc Rob

QSC CP12 Active PA Speaker 1000 Watts One of two - priced individually or for a small discount if sold as a pair. This speaker is as new and has not been used since purchase. It comes with additional QSC waterproof cover for outdoor use. Very powerful speakers however I’m downsizing and selling my larger portable PA gear. Street price is £579 cheapest I can find so this is a good saving. The covers cost an extra £67. The user manual is included. I have two of these for sale. I can knock off £40 if you buy the pair. Pickup definitely preferred but talk to me if this is impossible. UK only. Postage would be at buyer’s cost and I’d need to source packaging as the boxes have been recycled. These speakers get glowing reviews in Sound on Sound magazine - https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/qsc-cp-series I own a pair of QSC CP8s which are perfectly fine for keyboard monitoring and rehearsal PA so these aren’t needed now for personal use. Specifications from QSC below - Features Class-D amplifier with 1000W peak power output Selectable contours (presets) for quick setup Advanced DSP with Intrinsic Correction™ Superior sound quality and speaker protection Directivity Matched Transition™ (DMT) ensures uniform coverage across the entire sound field Suitable for use as a main PA, stage monitor or instrument amplifier 35mm pole mount socket Lightweight and incredibly portable Specifications Configuration: Two-Way Active Low Frequency Driver: 12'' Cone Woofer High Frequency Driver: 1.4'' Compression Frequency Response: 49Hz - 20kHz, -6dB 47Hz - 20kHz, -10dB Sound Pressure Level: 126dB (Maximum) Nominal Coverage: 75° Axisymetric Amplifier Type: Class-D Amplifier Power: 1000W (Peak) Input Connectors: 2 x XLR/TRS Combo (Line and Mic/Line) 1 x 3.5mm TRS Stereo Output Connector: 1 x XLR (Mix) Controls: Power 2 x Gain Mic Boost Push Switch 6-Way Contour Selection Switch Indicators: Power LED 2 x Input Signal LEDs Input B MIC Selected LED Limiter Active LED Power Supply: 100V - 240V, 50Hz/60Hz Enclosure Material: Polypropylene Grille: 18 Gauge Powder Coated Steel Dimensions: 516mm x 350mm x 323mm / 20.3'' x 13.8'' x 12.7'' (H x W x D) Weight: 13.7kg / 30.3lbs

True, they're "regular" Nordstrand Big Splits but with a wider spacing to match that of the EHB and to compensate for the fanning. They still use a standard soapbar casing for the sake of being able to change them out without having to do routing though. Swapping pickups is most definitely still a thing, although I haven't heard of many people who weren't happy with their Nordstrands
