    Hey thanks. The 2 amps thing is a good idea, although I'd like not to have to do that. Headroom comment noted too. I'd have loved to get hold of a Mantis but they're tough to come by in the UK. Seen lots of vids & comments re potential gear damage so I'm at low volumes at this stage.

    There was a stagg eub on here a while back for not much Dosh. Do people think that something like that is a way into double bass?

    I'm out! Succumbed to a Helix LT. I thought I would have cracked it this year but a quick play through our guitarists LT told me all I needed to know. Fantastic bit of kit and no regrets. Be gentle with me.

    If you can get this repaired at a good price, or do it yourself, this looks like a bargain. https://ebay.us/m/wCGWEL

    I’d definitely agree with everyone else here that buying a cheap bass is probably the best move. Always worth spending a few quid to get it checked over and set up nicely once you’ve got it to make sure you don’t pick up bad habits or hurt yourself because the bass is a bit wonky. Cheaper basses often pop up on Facebook Marketplace so worth keeping an eye on there too.

    Hope you enjoy - shame about the crack, but well done for sorting it out 😎👍👍

    Have these pickups left over from an upgrade I did a while ago on a Squier Classic Vibe 60s Precision. Looking for £20 posted. Any questions please ask.

    Have 2 sets of pretty much brand new Rotosound RS66LD Swing Bass strings. I fitted these to my basses a couple of weeks ago but just could not get on with the feel/tension so I've gone back to my trusted EB Slinky's. They're both cut for a Precision/Jazz and have seen about an hour max of use on each set. Looking for £25 posted for the pair or £13.50 posted for a set. Any questions please let me know.

    Been looking at one of these for a couple years now. Then this one tuned up for good price, soon found out why. New to bass so looking forward to getting started.

    That is tempting, but do I need another project to sit there looking at me and do I need another The Jack to go with the one I acquired one a couple of years ago for £100 and had to spend an extra £10 on a couple of parts. The shop I bought it from thought the electrics were faulty, but it turned out the LED on these tends to fade with time and otherwise it was OK.

    I second this approach. Rack panels are 19-inches wide so the opening width is always 19-inches plus a bit. Coversely the opening height is always multiple units of 1.75-inches and the panels/units should be less a tolerance to allow them to fit. I used to have a data sheet giving the recommended dimensions but I can't seem to find it right now. You should be able to find them through Google.

    Great looking bass - reminds me a little of my old Westone Thunder I 😎👍

    I've always thought he must be slapping with a finger rather than thumb and pulling with his thumb. Otherwise i cant get my head round how he does it. An incredible player. Loved it when he played with Gino Vannelli especially Brother to Brother album and even coached / helped Sandin Wilson who took over bass duties with Vannelli. Again another fantastic bassist. Dave

    I wholeheartedly agree. There's nothing about AI that interests me in the slightest, especially regarding art. It's a complete oxymoron.

    I’d back this 100%. I’m pretty new to this, buying my first upright from @Happy Jack in October. I’ve thrown myself in and I’m loving every minute. Couple of gigs done and some recording. great fun but apart from “note geography” it’s not like playing electric. Jonny

    Martin Owen, from Owen Electronics, was my guy... he repaired a few pedals for me back in 2017-2018. After a quick search, looks like his website no longer exists... His business email was: [email protected] Not very helpful, but I will follow this thread as I will also need pedals looked at down the line and without Martin, I am not sure who to go to either.
