Hutton started following Hiscox Cases calling it a day

I’ve just purchased a Hiscox case due to the company closing down. I wanted to make sure I got one of the last ones. Fortunately, I got one from a retailer who still had one in stock.

Here we have a very nice condition Status-Graphite "The Groove" 4-string bass, finished in 'Claret' red/burgundy. (Definitely looks more burgundy to the eye!) The bass is around 26 years old (1999 build) and presents well for its age. There are a few light scratches as you'd expect and one very small ding in the back, but nothing serious and all looking in good order for it's comparative age. Alder body, three-piece maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, light weight tuners, 'TRIMAX' pickup (basically three single coils joined to make a humbucker with the inner coil used for hum cancelling). Two-band EQ with cut/boost on Treble/Bass and true passive/active switching via a micro-switch. The Bass has just been set up with a nice low action & no fret buzz, and has brand new D'Addario 45-105 strings added. Comes complete with generic Gig Bag and strap locks. Offered at a reasonable £695 (dealers are trying to hawk "The Groove" Basses at anything between £850 & £1500?!) Interesting trades considered. Worst I can say is no thanks Buyer to collect from either Derbyshire DE7 (Friday-Tuesday), or Gloucester/Stroud (Wednesday-Thursday), or can meet half way up to a reasonable distance. Payment via Cash or Direct Bank Transfer. No PAYPAL.

Bit late to the concept of feedback - but bought a squier jazz a few months back. Bass was great, had an open chance to test and lawrie was very accommodating. Would recommend!

JohnDaBass started following Beer garden gig, do I need an extra cab?
-
Great that all was well. @Phil Starr and @Bill Fitzmaurice provide great advice, if you own more than one cab take as many as you can transport and just plug up the cabs as necessary. Having too much power is easy to remedy by using the amps volume control. Having insufficient power is more troublesome. DI into a good FOH is always a good solution.

Just bought an olp 5 string stingray from Pete. He was courteous and welcoming, it was a really nice experience in terms of buying, the bass itself and the social aspect! Thank you very much. Also, excellent interior decor 😄

Warwick + Trace Elliot... the (90s) dream combination!
SimonK replied to SimonK's topic in Gear Gallery
...and that was a bit of a disaster! I don't think I fully appreciated how different a 5 string Warwick feels to play compared to the four string Stingrays that I have been playing for the last twenty years. I really struggled for the whole gig adapting to both the five strings, but also the entirely different feel of the thing. I'm hoping that if I persevere things will get easier as I do think very different instruments can inspire in very different ways, but adapting does seem to be a bit of a challenge. Most notable was quite how big and chunky the stingrays felt to wear after playing the Warwick, albeit the Stingray necks are much slimmer! Mind you the Trace sounded as equally awesome with both - didn't change any settings as signal level, EQ etc. was all fine or at least nothing I couldn't tweak using the controls on the basses alone. Every day's a school day even after 35 years of playing! -
I got a couple of firm handshakes after yesterday's gig. Honestly, not what my arthritic thumbs want!

We had a great 4 piece acoustic show at The Ziegler Winery yesterday. We had a very good guest blues harp player. I played sitting down because of my ankle. The 3 hour gig went fast and we were sounding really good to me. I was approached by several people after the show. I love that. It makes me feel famous. Lol The Ziegler Winery is a beautiful venue and they feature live music 3 days a week. Super nice crowd with lots of dancing. Perfect weather. Next week we have Summerfest in Milwaukee. Daryl
