    Looks great, and your tuck shop is cheap!
  4. Mickeyboro started following Fairport Convention/Dave Pegg CD bundle (folk-rock content)
  5. Mickeyboro
    Dave Pegg - The Cocktail Cowboy Goes It Alone Solo album from Fairport/Jethro Tull bassist, still sealed and unplayed. Fairport Convention - Gladys Leap Mid 80s comeback album from Fairport, including a Pegg-led instrumental medley plus the classic The Hiring Fair. Played once, remastered sound is notable! Just reissued by Talking Elephant. Yours as a package deal, £10 plus postage (£2).

    Piss-poor... Who decided that would be alright before applying some glue?

    I've always thought that the Sunday afternoon / teatime gigs made a lot of sense, even before I reached a 'certain age'! I remember doing a few places back in the 80s, playing to bikers on a Sunday teatime, and it always made sense, then as it does now. A punter can go out and have a few beers, see a band and still get to bed home at a reasonable time to get up for work on Monday morning. From a muso's point of view, a two hour drive home at eight o'clock is better than driving home at midnight, especially for semi-pros who have work the next morning.
  8. BassApprentice started following What are you listening to right now? and Unusual Christmas Songs please :-)
  9. BassApprentice
    Anything from the Merry Axemas albums. Bit of a nostalgia when I was discovering bass and liked a bit of slap and shred guitars.
  10. BassApprentice
    This has been stuck in my head for the past 3 days. Would absolutely love to be in a band like this.

    Set the truss rod and lowered the action a bit. Really plays well now, and I agree about the strings. Father Christmas is bringing me a set of Newtone Shorties.

    The Paisley Jazz Bass is going to Rob Harris (guitarist from Jamiroquai) in the first week after New Year.

    That may explain why so many seem to be interested more in the bass drum than anything else. Of course, the PA will be set up in an empty room, but the sound tech should have enough about themselves to realise that they need to boost the mids and do it before the concert starts.
  14. Bilbo
    As simple as it gets, the tune is a one chorus melody rendering of 'My Foolish Heart' from the 1992 Victor Goines album, 'Genesis'. The bass player is Christopher Thomas who plays it as straight as they come. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/my-foolish-heart-victor-goines/
  15. BlueMoon started following Blade basses?
  16. BlueMoon
    Not sure who makes these new ones, but I had a Blade Tetra that was a great bass. I think they were made for Levinson in Japan by Tune Maniac.
  17. Nickthebass started following FS: Broughton Carina Analog Phaser
  18. Nickthebass
    Any interest in a trade?
  19. jezzaboy
    I nearly bought a s/hand one in a shop years back but it weighed as much as a small planet. I know the old ones were well thought of.

    Musicman Sterling 4H Bass USA & Original Case Lovely example of the earlier Sterling model (not to be confused with the Sterling imports from the East) I picked up in a trade on here this year. Made in the US in 2000 it has a recessed neck plate, three band EQ and slimmer body and neck. This is a rarer version with a black sparkle finish and matching headstock. It comes with original pearloid scratch-plate and a plain black laminated one. It weighs 3.9kgs so a nice lightweight example of this bass. Lovely balance and set up. It’s very easy to play and currently strung with D’Addario 40-100 nickel roundwounds. No issues other than a couple of hard to see dings. Great bass, only selling as it is rarely used since I prefer maple boards. Pickup preferred but I can post in the UK at buyer’s cost. I’ve reduced the price so no offers. No trades other than possible p ex on a Ric 4003.

    I’ve just looked. Yeah, 2 out of 3 look good to me and the other one isn’t as bad as mine. The 2x green they have are both ok and all 4x 5 strings, grey and green look good.
  24. beanydc started following Antiquinty Bass neck
  25. beanydc
    Antiquity Bass neck. Bought off Ebay other day, was listed as a jazz bass neck but its a P bass neck profile, was hoping to swap to try a slimmer neck but its the same so no longer needed. Its in great shape. No major knocks or dents to the fretboard or edges etc. Any other questions please message. Bass Neck Rosewood 34" Scale 21 Fret 16" Radius Measurements are in the pictures £35+ postage

    Peach Guitars have a few in stock with a picture and weight of the actual bass you are buying. The matching does vary quite a bit, maybe at that price point Cort think that's appropriate? Personally I'd send it back as well. I bought a sunburst Player Jazz from them and was able to select one with no visible joins in the body which also happened to be the lightest. It also came with an excellent set up. Worth a look.

    I like your taste,Si. Now I know it's Sherwood Green I can see it right away. Excellent basses made by a very good people. Let's us know how you like it.
  30. Mickeyboro
    Well, seeing you put it through its paces convinced me Flea was going to a good home. It’s served me well. Have fun!

    What we've found as a similar type of show is that Sunday afternoons are a great time for people of a certain age. Weve now played a few well attended Sun afternoon gigs and it suits everyone from the band to the audience. Dave

    Looking at the 3 that PeachGuitars have currently listed online you can see the pics of each instrument, 1 is well matched, the other 2 are not but are both actually visually interesting so would be acceptable and are arguably unique, but if the book matched finish was important I'd choose the best one off PeachGuitars, but obviously the extra 10% unless you can get them to price match..

    Sad to read the news about Höfner. Such a historic name.
