Only just seen this, sounded like a brilliant idea.

Deeply saddened by this news. We all knew it was coming but I didn't expect it so soon after the Back to the Beginning show. An absolute legend, who lived more of a life than most of us could ever imagine.

I felt a bit jaded after the 11:49 transcription so wanted to try something in a higher register that didn't keep me down in the region of the low B. This came up on my mp3 player and I thought I would have a go. It is not a bass part at all but the melody to a Ralph Towner tune called 'Ecotopia' from the 1987 Oregon album of the same name. Something very different. The melody does some lovely things with the rhythms so have a go and see where it takes you. A nice exercise. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/ecotopia-oregon-melody-transcribed-for-bass/

Bartolini 6RC Pickup. This is a direct drop-in for your Rickenbacker bridge pickup. Only selling as I am using an alternative in my 4003. Just a bit of shine on the top of the pup where the string rubs a little. Bass Direct have these new at £118 < only asking £75, UK postage included. PM for any more info, thanks for looking! SB 😀 -

RIP Ozzy. Legend. Certainly went out on a high.

Bought my first fretless in 1978 - still have it today. Others have come and gone in the meantime. Most gigs unless it's a cutdown set for whatever reason I will have a fretted and a fretless bass with me. I like the contrast in tone and the audiences usually like it too. This is the current three and most unlikely to change now.

Being passive isn't the only factor - my Laklands are just more up my street, as I mentioned. It's still a lovely bass, but perhaps stands a better chance of being moved on unadulterated! 😉 -
Nice! -
Oh my, I think the bass gods are really toying with me; I was looking out for a Tune 5-string a while back (I have the TWB-6 and a couple of the later Korean models). Sadly, funds won't currently allow me to go for it but I can certainly vouch for the quality of these basses. Absolutely! GLWTS. 👍😎👍 -

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.-

Got this in a trade on here recently but it’s just not got much use. Between the green Russian and the grey stache that I own I have my fuzz needs covered. This one is two big muffs running in parallel, one of them has a standard tone control, the other has a mid boost/cut. Certainly a lot to play with and a lot of sounds to be gotten out of it! No original box with this but will be packaged securely. Price will include postage in the UK -
Whistling too... ...except for in that movie.

Spector NS Pulse II w/ Lusithand NFP Special
TheGreek replied to the_red_gobbo's topic in Basses For Sale
Hmmm...not the first time I've looked at this...even though I am without a Spector I really can't justify another bass. GLWTS -

Hi, Can I also have the bass tab please if that's alright? There's literally no other tabs anywhere online so I'd be very grateful for any tab, even if it's not 100% :)) My email is: [email protected]

It's hard to find gig video and pics of us ( Maple Road). I don't think anyone in the band except me has any interest in pics or video. It's too bad because we have a theatre gig coming where you could shoot some nice footage. Daryl

This one is a bit special. Started as ebony/black special edition. Now has: Aguilar preamp. (vol, blend, stacked B&T) 2 x Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. Hipshot lollipop tuners. Routed for weight reduction. Now 4.3kg or 9lb 7oz. Anodised pickguard. Fully shielded. Case. All work by actual luthier, not me! Can ship 4 string trades possible, but only posh ones 😂🛳️ -
I told them to put you above the puppet show!
