    Short scale?
  4. binky_bass started following Ibanez LACS. Anyone got any hands on experience with one?
  5. binky_bass
    Has anyone owned an Ibanez LACS? As I understand, the LA Custom Shop only build artist used guitars/basses and occasionally prototypes. You cannot order a LACS nor can you buy one directly outside of certain special build runs that are incredibly infrequent. Curious to know if anyone ever owned one/played one etc?

    It's at times like this, that basschat needs a "wow" response icon. That is almost a nominal fee, or £25 for administration and the neck is free. "Thanks for buying a Sire. We are committed to providing you with ongoing support for your instrument."

    Basschat first got interested in these over 10 years ago - I blame @Clarky It was that thread that led to me ordering a matching Crazy 88 from Guy Trigg (who seems to be no longer a Member here): https://www.facebook.com/trickyaudio/?locale=en_GB He was/is building them under licence from Greenboy in the USA: https://www.greenboy.us/ https://www.greenboy.us/cabs/view.php?model=Crazy88 Just to confirm those dimensions in metric: H 57cm x W 27cm x D 35cm, Weight 12.5Kg The cab is 4 Ohms.

    This cab isn't just for DB but it's enough of a boutique DB item that it's worth posting the link to the sale thread here too.

    Happy Jack's Great Exotic Sale continues with this quite remarkable pedal. How to describe what it does? Best read this: https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/audio-sprockets-tonedexter That review is for the original ToneDexter which is what I am selling. Original packaging, power supply & manual, as you can see. By its very nature, this isn't a pedal that gets chucked into gig bags and knocked about at gigs, so this is in pristine condition. If there's a mark on it, then I can't find it. Smaller than you'd think, too. You can't buy these new any more, but the V2 replacement is this one: https://www.andertons.co.uk/audio-sprockets-tonedexter-2-acoustic-guitar-preamp/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20736322037&gbraid=0AAAAADujoUrZPlhasp7Z7MDPcIjO7Cnyt&gclid=Cj0KCQjwh5vFBhCyARIsAHBx2wzoSIwW07QUzI0kxlO4PRfLLAuySRBXjVY8ZKQoc6XWvrMM3LVfcRcaArDKEALw_wcB I used this a lot when I was gigging a Zeller ply bass and a Kolstein Busetto, both of those with utterly gorgeous tone, alongside my custom-built Ali-Kat aluminium bass ... which looks astonishing but can't even begin to compete on tone. These days, I no longer actually own a traditional DB of any sort () so the ToneDexter is getting very little use.

    I should also probably have mentioned that it comes with the GB Shuttle 4-button footswitch. And the soft cover.
  14. Richard R
    That's a great sound!
  15. bassninja
    I don’t know about you, but I’m enjoying the descriptions as much as the fascinating collection…
  16. Happy Jack
    I should probably have mentioned that it comes with the original Owner's Manual.
  17. Happy Jack
    Very little used since Covid, time to move it on. Comes with all the little bits of cabling etc. Condition is as near pristine as you're likely to find. Full specs are here: https://philjonesbass.net/cms/product-ha-1/

    My eye (yes, I have two. Don't worry...) was caught by the cool looking lever at the top of the bridge - does this amazingly manly bass have a lever that deploys the string mutes? Bet MusicMan wish they'd thought of that before adding those fiddly tiny metal round screws under the bridges of Classic Stingrays. Seriously impressed by the intonation calibration markings on the bridge as well. If Bang & Olufsen made basses, they would make basses like this.

    I see guitarists playing Blackstar amps almost as often as I see bass players using Mark Bass.

    Video shoot for a promo for one of the cover bands. We were only doing snippets of 4 songs but it still a full day of filming.

    That would be lovely! Approved.

  26. bass_dinger
    Hi @DylanDavid, and welcome. Perhaps you can show us some photos of the string height above the fretboard, so that the bass experts here can give you advice. While you are making those photographs and waiting for help, there is no need touch the truss rod yet.

    I can add some starter double bass books if they would be of use.

  29. J66Bass started following Ibanez Roadstar II 1981 MIJ & Case
  30. Mykesbass
    While I agree it is a great Reggae bass tone the reason I said it is the perfect bass tone is It would fit in so many styles. Clean, warm, sits in the mix beautifully. I'd happily try to emulate that in my Americana band! And yes, although not yours on Reggaebasses level of expertise, it does have Robbie's fingerprints all over it 👍

    Ok, this is a left field option... But... Happy Jack's Tonedexter is in the classifieds. He was kind enough to lend me this a while back before I put in an order for my own. We trained it with my PU (Realist Lifeline), and his Nadine initially, later I trained it with my Remic red, and my cheap T Bone, and I was sufficiently impressed to buy my own. I've also created patches with off bass mics, an SM57, and an SE-X1a, both with good results. I give front of house a direct from the device, and have a through signal to a little combo for monitoring, and I've been really happy with my sound for two years now. Golihur used audio clips from Jack to demonstrate its abilities on YouTube, and it brings it so much closer to that unplugged sound... but louder. https://youtu.be/HjRYQ02doMo?si=_2BgwQfvoctJNjgd
