  1. Past hour
  2. Saw him with Headspace Saturday. A bit different to your gig and a little sparse on attendance, others loss as they missed an excellent night with a great band Silent stage, except for the kit, and the baby Kemper doing its thing well.
  3. ***PRICE DROP NOW £1300*** 2010 US Stingray, 2EQ, CAR with rosewood board. One of the limited edition 133 basses, full fat ‘ray but with a soft gig bag case instead of a hard shell job. This is in excellent condition with one very minor ding on the top edge, and the pickguard is quite marked but obviously easily replaceable. Comes with a Hipshot D-tuner (long key though instead of short… doh), if you want the original tuner key I’ll chuck it in. I’ve also replaced the pickup with a Nordstrand MM4.2, which sounds flippin’ great. She’s quite heavy (10lb) but with a decent wide strap it feels ok. ***EDIT*** now comes with the option of a Warwick Rockbass semi-rigid case - photos added. Loathe to post this but can at buyer’s (insured) expense, or can meet in person at either Portsmouth, Southsea, Southampton or Lymington (I’m on the I.O.W.)

  4. OLP Tony Levin - swapped for a 4-string that cost me £75 and £50 cash, and needed a truss rod adjuster wheel fitting (another tenner). No upgrades yet.
  5. Squier Jazz Vintage Modified Modified. Apart from the Aguilar pickup, V/B/T controls, and pretty control plate, and the neat defret job, it's just the same as any other Squier Jazz. No tear-out, the slight wiggliness on the lines is from the fret tangs.
  6. Why has nobody bought this yet?!
  7. Today
  8. Great set up. Ran exactly the same rig for a few years pre covid. GLWTS
  9. A bass player is nothing special as far as society goes.
  10. Yesterday
  11. I am selflishly waiting for the American F*ckwit Precision
  12. Facebook and gumtree. I got at 15” bass cab on gumtree for £10
  13. Ampeg ba108 is superb
  14. I’ll give you a piece of advice from my own store of not-that-naturally-gifted. Put your bass to one side and find a funky drum beat on the net. Make up your own bass line in your head - if you sit there with a bass you might find something by luck and you might not. if you dream the baseline in your head, you’ll know where the notes fit in the pattern when you pick up the bass. Try and find any one of them and play it in the right place, then add more one or two at a time. some people can just riff this kind of thing off instantly. Sadly I’m not one of them and I find this way easier
  15. Used to be mine, lovely bass.
  16. You see @Mrbigstuff we can do this - thats #2… so what kind of tonewood would work best for that turnaround? I’d recommend ash, probably from the 60s and Leo must have breathed in its general vicinity at least twice (#3) and that kind of turnaround might work in metal if you left out thirds (#4) and I’m sure a MIM made out of that kind of wood would punch its weight well with a US model for less £ (#5) HOUSE
  17. It’s either a prototype or it’s a custom. I’m confused.. if it’s custom, it should be exactly what you asked for, but great quality. if it’s a prototype it’s not custom and whilst it may not be exactly what you wanted but it doesn’t take much effort to tart up those faults.
  18. Slight change of direction, at least in the short term. I’ve managed to snaffle a couple of EV ELX18P bass bins that are the ‘perfect’ match for my EV ZLX15P tops (at least they are listed in the DSP) so I will be going with this setup for at least the next six months. I still like the look of those NLX24’s and may well still take the plunge once the 2026 diary fills up a bit.
  19. They were bloomin’ brilliant, weren’t they! Such a fun sounding band. And I can attest to how good Lee’s old Fender sounded through the Kemper. He was using at the gig they did at Pizza Express Live last year too. Nice little setup for a very bijou stage.
  20. Absolutely. It's the *perfect* device for me, because after 20 odd years of pushing every effects unit I had to its limits, I finally found something that did all the things I previously couldn't, but having an Anagram-style interface that turned on and off would really help people get started with it
  21. The Blue Bosses are looking for a Jazz bassist (Double Bass or Electric). We are an experienced five piece: tenor sax, keys, drums, guitar and soon to add vocalist. Playing Swing, Bossa, Bebop, Modal, Ballads and now looking to complete our line up for gigs in 2026. Below is a link to our taster demo on SoundCloud. Thanks for looking.
  22. As suspected no problem at all with the bridge pins, they all come out perfectly easily.
  23. Its a shame that there isn't a more powerful (or at least more core'd version of the dwarf, as they had stopped the ModX near the end. And a better display but however good it was, I don't think that most people were ready for that level of flexibility. I do feel if they had made the software development environment a bit friendlier, they would have had a lot more of a headsup in the market.
  24. But I don't think there's a Moog in the set, I think it's a downs‌‌ized version of his normal ri‌g maybe?
  25. Traded my Peerless Bassmaster for Lyle’s Fretless Dean + some cash. Met up and had a nice chat, great bloke to deal with. 👍🏼
  26. Can it be used for metal?
