  1. Past hour
  2. Definitely US. This came from a parts bass made by a Sadowsky employee. No real markings on it to identify as such. The pickups were scrubbed out and headstock left blank for fear of repercussions. I still have the neck - Brazillian rosewood fingerboard, Graphtech nut, Schaller tuners.
  3. PM sent.
  4. I’ve looked at all of my gear to see if there’s anything I can sell to get to £1700. alas. No.
  5. Damn, pending the weight I’d have this straight off you, but I’m nowhere near….down in High Wycombe. Si
  6. How much does it weigh?
  7. I hate (operating) compressors. I bought a TC Spectracomp. I tried all the programmed settings I found one I liked. I never have to think about compressors now. When it comes to playing with fingers, the accepted way is to use two fingers. This is great. However, 1 finger was actually good enough for JJ and he seemed to get around just fine. I watched a vid of that guy who had a signature P bass who is a hotshot US session bod (sorry, I cannot remember his name) who was playing with one finger and it does give a subtly different timing/groove.

  9. Always find these kind of things funny. Designer designs a pedal. Decides its not good enough. It's "rediscovered" and automatically becomes the best thing ever. Reminds me of when music artists die and they find demos they decide to release. Literally things they've made that weren't good enough and literally didn't want to release. That being said, this sounds quite cool, but how different is it to the actual op amp version that was released? Been years since I used a muff.
  10. Today
  11. For sale is my 2016 Fender American Elite Jazz Bass, made in Corona, California, finished in 3-Tone Sunburst with maple fingerboard. This bass is in genuine 10/10 condition — no dings, no marks, no issues. It has been extremely well looked after and is exactly as it left the factory. It comes with the original Fender Elite moulded hard case, which is also in excellent condition. Specs: • Made in USA (Corona, CA) • 2016 model • Alder body • Maple neck & fingerboard • Compound radius fingerboard (9.5”–14”) • Modern C/D neck profile • Graphite reinforced neck • Fender 4th-Gen Noiseless Jazz pickups • 18V active preamp with active/passive switch • HiMass bridge • Lightweight tuners • Original electronics, hardware, and finish Condition: • 10 out of 10 • No mods • No repairs • Fully original • Perfect neck, frets, and electronics Reason for sale: This is an absolutely superb bass, but I personally prefer the burp and growl of my ’62 passive Jazz Bass. purely a tone preference. I did consider converting this bass to passive, but ultimately decided against it as I didn’t want to alter or “ruin” such a well-designed, high-end instrument. It deserves to stay exactly as Fender intended.

  12. still using the old sound city 🤣
  13. Thank you. Yes, i feel it's a good price for an instrument of this pedigree and versatility
  14. It's not always easy to know what is going down well sometimes. We play a variety of venues: some like to dance, some places It's nigh on impossible to get anyone on the floor. However we nearly always get positive comments, which sometimes comes as a bit of a surprise when you think you're not going down that well. I guess all you can do is enjoy this fleeting existence and hope some of the joy rubs off on other people 😁
  15. interesting comments about the behringer ones, some of the nasallyness described seems almost appealing. i think ive used an old audio technica atm41a the most, i also have a sennheiser which i think is an 835 but the paints all peeled off so the model label is gone 😩 honestly my vocals are very pg99 type screamoey and i dont really notice much difference between the 2, but i really dislike the squarer grille shape of the sennheiser so its usually the atm. i wonder though, if something more actively terrible might be... better for me
  16. Yep 2025 marked my 45 years as a bassist. I really should be much better than I am after this amount of time, though I can play what I need to. I remember getting my first bass at 15 and thinking “I’m now a bassist” and that thought has stayed with me throughout my life. Even in the times when I’ve been playing guitar in bands I’ve always considered myself as a bassist who can play guitar rather than as a guitarist.
  17. In 2026 I’ll have been playing bass for 40 years. How the hell did that happen? (And I’ve still got the Arion tuner and guitar stand I got for Xmas 1986). Here’s to the next, errr, 40 years.
  18. No clue mate - not worried; when the right person jumps for it they’re getting a stonking bass. Unfortunately I’m sat on the dark side at the moment 🫣
  19. Mine is on its way- allegedly safe in the hands of FedEx
  20. would also accept trade for an iPad pro T.Hanks
  21. 20 years ago was 1974 to loads of people here? 😂
