Hand-wired bump. -
Analog modelling device to replicate the sound of a 12in guitar speaker. Connect either to an instrument-level output (eg from a preamp) or a spare speaker output (IMPORTANT - it is essential to also connect a speaker or dummy load to a valve amp, and strongly recommended with a solid state amp). Runs from PP3 battery (not included) or phantom power. £40 delivered in mainland UK. -
cheers Mark , it’s lovely just needs playing -
… wanted to try one for a while (to compare against my other B15 type offerings 👍🏻):

Working through the ABRSM piano grades
LawrenceH replied to bass_dinger's topic in Other Instruments
IMO there's good mileage in playing through a lot of pieces in the early stages and moving on quite quickly. My daughter's sax teacher has been doing this with her, and she has been progressing quickly and, importantly, maintained motivation. If you go back to those pieces in a month after working on something else you might find them a lot easier and fresher. -
On numerous occasions lately I have been unable to save the information I had written. It just would save. Furthermore when log out and back I again the txt does not appear for acceptance or deletion. Can you explain why?

My relationship to the Trace pre-shape (granted on the GP11/12s) has been to turn it on, play a few notes, say "cool", then turn it off for the gig. The compressor is fine if you don't have anything better on your pedalboard, albeit I normally use compressors for peak limiting rather than anything more drastic.

Gather here, ye converted, and weep! Even though we've never met I kind of assumed that you might enjoy a little oikishness, so yes, of course. It's an inevitability. It's obviously not 'ard enough. -
If only...glwts. -
I have the same combo and they are great. Loud and a great tone the horn makes a lot of difference to the sound -
Relisting this as, try as I might, I am not A Jazz Bass Guy. Original thread below, the only thing that’s changed since May is the bass is now wearing a nicely worn in set of La Bella IMA Super Polished strings. I’m in the market for a JMJ Mustang so would be interested in a trade involving one of those (plus cash adjustment on my end). Collection from Haywards Heath preferred, or I’d be happy to meet within 30 miles or so.-

I'm down to just 2 basses (shocking, I know) One is a bitsa P Bass with a Harley Benton neck on it. Whilst it's fine, it's not exactly a looker. Has anyone bought a reasonably priced roasted maple neck, ideally with a rosewood or equivalent board. I appreciate I could go to AliExpress but that seems very much like a lottery in terms of fit and finish.

Here we have my Spector NS Pulse 5 string bass, just arrived back from Jacks in Manchester where its had a full service and set up, fret dress, new nut, and a transplant of an Aguillar system OBP 2 pre amp and pick ups, for a more rounded sound. Only selling as a Eurobolt 5 arrived to take its place, great sounding and great condition. Grab yourself a bargain. The NS Pulse represents the core of Spector's iconic design. The three-dimensionally carved body is a trademark of the Spector brand and provides a uniquely comfortable playing experience for all bassists. This NS Pulse model features a solid Swamp Ash body paired with a three-piece Roasted Maple bolt-on neck, complete with a Macassar Ebony fingerboard. The roasting process results in a neck that provides enhanced stability & resonance, while the Macassar Ebony fingerboard ensures clear note definition and projection. Perhaps the most striking feature of this bass is the sandblasted finish which highlights the unique grain pattern of each instrument. When paired with our Cinder Red or Charcoal Grey stain, the result is nothing short of stunning. Solid Swamp Ash Body Three-piece Roasted Maple Neck; Macassar Ebony Fingerboard Locking Bridge; Die-cast Tuners; Graphite Nut Sandblasted Charcoal Grey Matte Finish-

Collecting my freshly refurbished Wal Pro 2E from Paul at Electric Wood on Monday.

Conventionally that's where the dot markers go on a lined fretless, whereas they go where the frets would be on an unlined. I had the markers moved on a Sei lined fretless with very faint lines so they were on the fret positions, and another faintly lined fretless already had them on the fret positions. Conversely, I have a defretted Squier VM 5 Jazz - maple board and black lines, with the dots remaining in place, and that's not a problem. I'd be inclined to find an equivalent fretless rather than have it defretted.

Working through the ABRSM piano grades
bass_dinger replied to bass_dinger's topic in Other Instruments
I had my lesson today. I seem to have developed a negative mindset, that tells me that I cannot play the piano. Certainly, I have given up on the three pieces that I initially selected - they are now frustrating me. My feeling is that, if I can't play them after a month of trying, then I am better off moving on to another piece. - Today

I have one of these and it's a great instrument, nice preamp, pickups and construction. GLWTS! -
The octave has much more gain available due to the passive mixer being replaced with an active one, true bypass, 2 octaves down removed, and can run on 18V for even more headroom.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
fretmeister replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
The IAH ones are fine on my shorties - but I'd still prefer if they did proper versions of them. The regular Super Polished do feel different - as much as I can tell without installing them anyway so I might end up trying a set on a long scale even though I'd prefer a lower tension / lighter gauge option. Hopefully they will be popular enough for La Bella to consider that. -
If my jazz sells though 🤔
