Excellent. Looking good, Mick.

Anyone know a Luthier who refrets Graphite Necks?
Hellzero replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in General Discussion
Nice AI vomit, you should have, at least, erased the last part and read it entirely as there are some typical AI bullshīt in it. Just in case I had my own luthiery workshop... You can't hammer frets in a phenolic (Richlite is not phenolic by the way, AI mismatched it with ebonol) fretboard without splintering the composite and the frets won't sit firmly, they must be glued in with a time consuming special preparation, hence the complexity of the job. I read your stupid AI text, so please stop patronising. -

I'm assuming by now you've sorted the neck dive? I'm to be the proud owner of a Purple Fandango coming sometime toward end of March. Like you I don't want to go the ultrlite way as the headstock is black - I'd do it if just was wood. what are these wheel weights? are they available on Amazon and how many sets did you eventually end up putting in your control cavity? If you have a link to the device I'm sure I can find othem somewhere. BTW great moniker I loved UFO when I was a kid still pretty good today when you YT it 👍

Another sedate tune from Duke Ellington, the wonderful 'Isfahan' from the 1967 album, 'The Far East Suite'. Simple but stunning. You don't need to be Mohini Dey to pull this chart off!! https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/isfahan-duke-ellington/

LOL, if it wasn't for @agedhorse and @Bill Fitzmaurice I'd probably only ever visit the basses for sale forums
-
Does anyone else feel a small sense of relief when Agedhorse doesn't quote you on a thread about amps? As always valuable insights from the expert (although I'm not convinced 2 ohm capable amps are that common albeit I suspect Agedhorse has a few he has designed)!
-
That's lovely - another triumph for the thread that pretends it is not encouraging the most extravagant and unneccessary purchases! 🙂

That's the one. Here are some better photos of the one I actually owned: IIRC it was sold on to someone in the UK so it should still be around. Fernandes do lots of limited edition models with custom graphics for both the bass and guitar versions of this. You rarely see any of them outside of Japan.

I’m a session bassist with 20 years of experience, currently based in Da Nang, Vietnam. I’ve decided to put my two main workhorses head-to-head to see how they handle different grooves. In this video, I’m comparing: 1. Fender American Elite Jazz Bass (Ultra pickups). 2. Custom Made Music Man 5 HH (with a unique Solid Rosewood Neck). Signal Chain: Both basses were recorded through my Kemper Player using a legendary Avalon U5 profile for that pure studio DI sound. Watch the comparison here: I’ve included on-screen TABS and Notation for both, so you can see exactly what's happening in the pocket. I'm currently working towards my 4,000-hour goal on YouTube, so I’d love to hear your thoughts on which bass sits better in the mix for you. Does the rosewood neck on the MM give it that extra 'snap' you'd expect? Cheers, Igor"

Have you doubled checked that they are actually different bases and not the one on Digimart being offered by various "middlemen".

Zbysek started following Barefaced One10 Cab with cover £350 and Stewart's feedback

Just had the pleasure of dealing with @Stewart for the first time, who's kindly sold me a really cool and great sounding Dave Hall preamp. It was the perfect Basschat transaction because Stewart's comms have been great from start to finish, and the preamp arrived in super-quick time and in bullet-proof packaging. All in all, an excellent experience... Suffice to say that you can deal with Stewart in complete confidence, Folks! 👌 And thanks for the preamp Stewart - I know I'm going to enjoy it! 👍😊 Cheers, Nik
-
But what a great way to go!
-
It's a nice size unit, more options to switch effects on & off during song, and a lot more options / flexibility than the POD Go (which is a great bit of kit imo). Looking forward to getting the chance to muck about with it.

Owned from new for around 12yrs, I bought this from Thomann and had it set up for Rockabilly. It definitely feels a step up from the entry level basses and I have used it live a lot. Most of its life has been more of feature in my living room though. The last couple of years I have been coming to terms with the fact that I need to sell it. Space is at a premium, it rarely gets used and I am of an age where the EUB seems the easier option. The specs are here Thomann link if anyone is interested. I added a pickup which has been useful - a David Gage Realist. People often call it a copper head. They’re industry standard and normally about £120 used. Mine is included with the bass at no extra cost to you. There is a tatty (by my high standards) gig bag and the strings are currently Gut-A-Like vintage ones Gut A Like strings You’ll see I added a few stickers. These should be fairly easy to remove. I’m happy to do it, or I can leave it. Equally I am happy to add more pictures. It’s currently lent against the wall in my place in Hungerford, where I am Sunday to Thursday evenings. Postage looks too hard to do so it would be a collection. I have gotten it in a Peugeot 107 before - not comfortably, so perhaps don’t bring the family if collecting!

I’m a big fan of Boss pedals and have just re-done my board. I went a bit mad recently and have a fair few that are surplus to my requirements. All are boxed (initially the OC3 was listed as unboxed but I have since found the box) and only the super overdrive has Velcro on the bottom. I would grade these as at least 9/10 in terms of condition. Prices include UK postage. Boss Octave OC3 - £85 Boss Tuner TU3 - £70 Boss Super Chorus CH1 - £75 Boss Super Overdrive - £60 Boss Bass Overdrive - £80 I looked around online and believe these are priced to sell. Check my feedback thread and buy with confidence. PayPal or balance transfer preferred.
