  1. Past hour
  2. You could fit a trumpian-ego into that
  3. I met up with James to buy his Mustang. Easy as pie to deal with. Cheers James.
  4. I've been in an interesting dialogue with a really nice guy originally from Sri Lanka but living in the UK he is interested in my bass but wants a specific sound from it. I have heard this sound on clips on youtube and it seems to be a common tone in popular music from that country. He sent me some video links to the sound and i've got what I think is close and sent it off to him so will see what he thinks. The bass samples he sent are all on Alembic epic basses with bass and treble so will sound different to the europa with filters. Also it requires a pick, which is not something i have needed to do before so used the 3mm Dunlop big stubby. Anyone else had to provide a specific tonal sample to a prospective buyer before they would buy your bass? edn
  5. I've really got into the U-Bass world this year, I now own a fretted and fretless. I personally would like to see a Ubass specific place to go l in the gear section, as we have with double basses etc, as any U-Bass threads do get lost in the usual traffic stream. There's many different ukulele basses coming onto the market now and also string choices, designs and their development are getting more comprehensive month by month it seems. I use my bass ukes more than my bass guitars and upright at present simply because I have them always at hand. In the car, in work... they are so good for on the fly ideas and practise. Every bass home should have one! Maybe there's enough of us now to warrant the creation of a U-bass sub section. Just a thought for the Basschat massive (especially the mods 😘) Thanks, Miles
  6. Carry on with a late surge , I must have put the date wrong DOH I’ve amended it !
  7. Well the run of excellent gigs came to an end last night. A club gig that doubled as a members event. The audience was our age demographic but dancers were few and far between. Maybe they were saving themselves for the upcoming festivities. However onwards and upwards to next week when we’re back in pub land for a new venue on the outskirts of Chesterfield.
  8. Hi Folks, Up for sale is my Mooer Radar Cab Simulator FX pedal which comes with the original box and PSU. I'm looking for £50 or near offer for it. It's a fantastic little unit which I bought here on Basschat for a recording project a year or so ago. Now the project is finished, I'm not really using it, hence why putting it up for sale. That said, it's a great fx unit for recording bass and making your sound feel more natural and authentic.. And it's also pretty good for gigging too. Here's some useful info about it: Review: https://chucksguitargeekery.wordpress.com/2019/05/10/gear-review-mooer-radar/ YouTube links: Blurb : "The MOOER RADAR is a full-featured professional speaker simulator which can be a permanent resident at the end of your pedalboard. Not only does it carry 30 cab models but it also has optional microphone and power amp simulation. Ideal for recording or hooked up to your favourite headphones for practice. The RADAR will transform your pedalboard into a complete guitar rig." (https://www.mooeraudio.com/product/Radar-51.html) Very happy to post this at buyers cost or it can be collected from me in Bedfordshire or North West London... Any questions, please ask, and thanks for looking. Cheers Nik
  9. Another excellent transaction with @floFC!
  10. Thanks it's a great piece of kit
  11. I sailed through my bypass earlier this year - though I was fit and well and hadn't been ill - and went straight back to it once I was allowed to drive again. I did that because I was determined not to stop gigging because of illness etc but For a long time I've been considering it. I'm an early retired 64 , fit and well and do several volunteering jobs so it's not my age - I'm just bored with it. I played in a pub in Castleford ( never go unless you're forced , and even then don't go !! ) about 8 years ago and it suddenly occurred to me that I'm still hawking my talents around the same toilets as I was when I was 17. I've had plenty of laughs along the way and done nigh on 2000 gigs but the truth of it is that I set out to become an artist and settled for being a craftsman. That's my greatest regret. These days I get more joy from noodling around at home than the ' groundhog day ' feeling of gigs. So - yes , gather ye rosebuds etc but when the time comes to chuck them away - act. I haven't done that and it's been a mistake.
  12. I have the 100 and the 500 combos. The 100 is loud enough for most stuff I play (pubs) but the 500 has more power (obviously) and disperses the sound better so I use that a fair bit too. Both are cracking amps and, in my opinion, sound best when the 'vintage' button is engaged.
  13. Today
  14. Abracadabra - Steve Miller Band
  15. This was my son’s first kit, it’s spent the last year disassembled at his mum’s house though and it’s time to move it on. Missing a foot but everything else seems to be there. Will supply with a spare drum head but stool not included. First photo is from when it was set up at my house a few years back, others all from today. Collection only due to size etc…

  16. The neatness of an office, the tools of a workshop, and the accessibility of a spare bedroom. It's a good space to use - not just the desk, but also the whole room.
  17. A pair of high quality speaker cables, manufactured by OBBM. Neutrik connectors and Klotz LY240T cable. Each one is just over 1 metre in length. £30 £25 collected. Happy to post if required, probably an additional £5-£7.

  18. Sorry Dan, I somehow hissed your post. Just message me if still want to buy. Thanks.
  19. I'm amazed that a pedal this good and at this price is still not sold. Anyway, time for another bump.🙂
  20. Thanks Alex. I wonder if people just think that it's too cheap to be worth considering. If I was still out there gigging I would be perfectly happy using this little amp. Anyway, time for another bump.
  21. I love this amp so much, GLWS
  22. I'm lucky to have a dinky little box room to tinker with things and practice my bass parts. I'm feeling smug as I've just finished setting up my almost-but-not-quite John Wetton tribute bass, which I put together a couple of days ago.
  23. I’ve gone back to using a head and cab, so my Markbass combo is up for grabs. It’s a great amp, deceptively loud for its size and in good condition (although the handle is looking a bit worse for wear). Looking for £425 collected from Haywards Heath, or I’d be happy to meet halfway within a reasonable distance. Better photos, proof of ownership etc to come but here are some for starters.
