  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. I bought an acoustic bass from Kev and as I'm disabled he personally delivered it to my house in Teeside from Newcastle! I echo all the comments above, Super guy, friendly and very knowledgeable on all things bass, I too highly recommend him. Tom.
  4. Neither am I, and I understand well how speakers actually work, but... ... but that isn't a tiny phone, laptop etc speaker which will have nothing below 200Hz, if not higher.
  5. Yesterday
  6. Just not using this and it’s too good to not be used! has a separate boost and sounds incredible £135 posted
  7. This is basically bosses big muff
  8. The zero fret is a fuzz where you simply have fuzz and clean level controls sounds great and super simple
  9. I've bought that lovely Warwick Gnome iPro V2 from Douglas - the amp is indeed in excellent condition and the communication just as great. Thank you so much.
  10. If i were in your situation, I would just be asking the maker nicely if they could offer help to get the right 5 string pickup to put into your bass. It's satisfied the original buyer, so they did their job. It'snot the maker's fault that you are unhappy with the bass (though it may indeed be an error on their part that makes it sound wrong to you).
  11. Ive done it again and put flats on my P bass as ive joined a large soul band, but i personally dont care for flats live. Ive decided to go back to rounds on the P (especially after listening to some Freddie Washington recently). They are worn in, but in good condition, The Tomastiks have a lovely mid voice and a smooth low end, with sweet highs, very like a quality orchestral string (it's what they do😁) they are also very low Tension, so very easy to play. £30 incl delivery to your door They are currently on the bass so no pics yet.

  12. 12 is the limit for me. The neck tension would be incredible on a bass with 3 courses of strings.
  13. If it was chipped, extra material would be left behind on each plate? We aren't seeing too much metal cut away at that corner presumably.
  14. I don't know, I compared YouTube with Prime Music and the latter definitely sounded way better. For that speaker demo, I think my small speakers eliminated the woolly bottom end of the Markbass, while not allowing the bottom end of the Barefaced speakers to come through. They are odd little things, as some music sounds great on them. I'm not a small speaker sceptic - have a PJB C4 which has loads of bottom end, it just isn't very efficient.
  15. Crap speakers are going to cause problems for sure. But other than that, things that sound bad on Youtube are more likely to be down to a bad recording than anything to do with data compression: https://jimlillmusic.com/does-youtube-mangle-audio/
  16. It wouldn't be a drill press, they are used to make holes. More likely a die cutting press. The simplest explanation is that one of the dies got chipped.
  17. Lovely trans red Music Man Stingray from 1983, wonderful sounding instrument. Please refer to the photos for condition. Everything as you would expect from a 42 year old instrument, nice low action, truss rod works fine, comes with non original road runner moulded case, again the case has no cracks or broken latches, everything works as it should. Body dated Oct 10th 1983, no date on the neck heel. Drop me a PM if there’s any other photos you require. Based in Ireland (E.U.), but can arrange shipping at cost worldwide or can arrange to get the bass to the UK for collection. Thanks for looking…

  18. It's not a huge kit but I think there's some wide angle distortion! Here's a more proportionate pic:
  19. Anything mangled by YouTube's compression then played through little phone, laptop or PC speakers is unlikely to sound anything like it does IRL.
  20. This is Sit - Kenny Loggins
  21. “Shall we fix it Leo?” “Nah who is ever going to notice that!” 60 years later….. 😂
  22. Either your drummer and guitarist are huge giants, or that drumkit is teeny tiny?
  23. It depends what the mistake is really. Some people are morons for editing stuff like that which actually sounds cool. I always say to people I produce, "You can have perfection or personality. You can't have both, so choose." Virtually always, bands or artists will choose the latter. Those who drone on about "getting stuff perfect" are generally nightmares to work with and also have no filter as to decide when "that'll do" is the right thing to do. Then they wonder why it sounds slightly lifeless. Which is why I made a rule to not work on those types of records and weed out those folk.
  24. sorry to hear about that - sounds like a horror show
  25. Winter is coming down this way so I ad the Stingray Fretless in at Peter Stephen Luthier he showed me the truss rod system and neck "relief" instrument is home and back in top form -
