  1. Past hour
  2. Hi, For sale the above, in full working order and great condition. Not needed now, recording finished. Price includes UK Mainland Delivery.
  3. I know the thread is about the more creative/ interesting Bass lines of decades gone by, but other stuff stands out to me as well... After just listening to all those tunes on the above list over on YouTube, apart from three of those tunes, the rest all have string arrangements (very good charts that are obviously arranged by experienced arrangers). Of the three that don't, one has excellent Brass arranging and two have very good, creative, vocal harmony arranging. So, to me, all the above, and including the very fine musicianship involved, elevates those tunes above 'dross'. It may well be music that you don't like, but to my ears, not dross. Just my musical opinion(s), of course.
  4. Hi all, Just wanted to share my new (used) Dingwall Combustion that I got a couple of weeks ago from Bass Bros (great service btw). It’s my first 5 string bass (after decades refusing to get one!) and couldn’t be happier. Great to play, easier to get used to (multi-scale) that you’d think and hoping to rehearse or gig with it sometime soon. Let me know if any questions. e05e6bea-adca-4279-899e-4e4993d10c1c.mov
  5. Double tracking is pretty standard but I've never heard of double tracking using an acoustic behind a distorted electric bass.
  6. I have one of these and it’s one of my favorite basses. I don’t think I’ll ever sell mine. They are very rare to find. Whoever buys, will enjoy it very much. Good luck with the sale.
  7. Cuts Like A Knife - Bryan Adams
  8. Yes think so. Absolutely grade A sanding and sealing job - done by someone who knows what they’re doing. Not sure about the heal but really comfortable
  9. There are 14 'Ranks' and 4 Badges. The 4th badge requires you to 'like' all 5,000,000 basschat posts.
  10. Absolutely lovely! Has the entire bass been stripped (front of headstock apart)? Also, has the heel been slightly reshaped (could be just the finish or light in the images)? A very cool bass
  11. 37 Stitches - Drowning Pool
  12. As anyone who owns one of these amps knows, they sound great, have all the gubbins you need on them, are loud BUT so is the fan. It's a bit like having your own aircon unit soundwise. When you're playing it's not an issue, I wouldn't sell it just because of the fan noier but, we'll you know.🙂 Has anyone sourced a quiter replacement fan? From what I've researched it's tricky if not impossible.
  13. Selling this Micro Fuzz from Kong. Comes with a blend Knob so no lowend loss. 2 types of fuzz, “bass” side is more of a vintage germanium type, the “treble” side is a trebly fuzz. In as new condition, never mounted on a pedalboard nor gigged. £30 posted within mainland UK.

  14. @hiram.k.hackenbacker ?
  15. I imported a Heritage jazz from Japan and it oozes quality. GLWTS.
  16. Just a bit of an update, and a huge thank you to everyone who commented or reacted. With just one gig in the diary and with a regular venue switching to an agent, we have called time on the band. The singer started off a little defensive (as you would expect) but did see that it was right in the end. He admitted that some gigs completely wipe him out and he has good and bad days more generally. We all wish that it was not so, but to carry on (in front of 'strange' crowds) would expose him to criticism (and possibly even ridicule) and that would be far worse. We will bow out on 7th October. More importantly, we are parting as chums. Thanks again for the support people have given. This is a remarkable place - and this is demonstrated so often here.
  17. As the title says, we now have a PA subsection of the Amps and Cabs section, can we have a separate For Sale Area too?
  18. Today
  19. My brother likes his Italian food and he says it was a different class, especially compared to the previous works outing they had at one of Jamie Oliver's establishments, where they overpaid for small portions of very mediocre food and most folks stopped off for chips on the way home because they were still hungry.
  20. Incredibly reluctant sale - but honestly, could do with cash at mo, but if it doesnt go it's a sign and i'll regret this - my dream P - John Deaconesque 1972 that was originally LPB has been stripped back and the seal is like the silkiest feel ever - it plays like a dream - sounds incredible - has been modded to house EMG active pickup but put back to original pups - it's alder body so very light (8ish lbs) and super resonant - i often forget i'm unplugged jamming at home - this thing just plays itself - with B nut width of 41mm and proper rosewood board - the frets are worn down but it makes it so smooth - just had deluxe set up at Doghouse Phil's workshop with brand new GHS pressurewounds - a few dings here and there but for a 53 year old bass not that many have pictured biggest - comes with 3 scratchplates- black, red tort and original 72 white that's aged see pics -it's actually slightly a tad darker wood than in pics - the sticker on back of headstock is removable no problems, but thought it looked cool Priced to sell at £2350, is my bottom line (it's less than what i paid and work/ strings ive put into it) - so wont haggle - that's the price and you're getting a stellar bass - I have a double box i can send it in or for £50 extra can throw in a case I'd rather you come to Clitheroe or within an hour to play it and fall in love with it (i feel a bit sick writing this) but postage to UK will have to include insurance so prob £50 again If i've forgotten anything or you want to come see it - or have questions please contact me
  21. From the videos I've seen of your bands I don't think you've much to worry about in the playing stakes. I wish I was as terrible as you!
  22. Looks like there's 14 badges according to my profile. No real idea what they mean or how to get them though 🤔 I'm assuming that being a "veteran" translates to "spends and incredible amount of time on Basschat instead of practicing" 🤣🤣
  23. They used to be rebranded KHL instruments, Korean company but will most likely be built elsewhere and also sold under the HK brand in Europe (German distributor IIRC) and Wolf in the USA, you might get more info by searching those. They made an appearance again on eBay a year or two ago, more Fenderish than the prior more original body shapes. May just be whoever owns the brand using in on import lines, from what I remember they were cheap but good.
