  2. crazycloud started following Musicman Stingray 5 necks - £480, if you are interested in securing a slot in the first batch of 5, sign up here.

    Definitely interested, definitely broke at the moment due to my car needing some exxy repairs right now. My friend has a 5 axis CNC on the way and we've been sketching some body ideas over the weekend. I also saw some headless 5 necks. Perhaps some of the children may need to be sold off for medical experimentation...

    The wenge/maple NT, rather than the maple/walnut veneer laminate version the two years before. Probably won't make any difference tonally or structurally, but it sure looks sexy and would look good next to my Cort A5 Ultra Ash and if I'm gonna have to import one, I might as well wait for the one I want. For the same reason, I'd like a BTB1826/1906 too. I have a BTB846v that's waiting to become a large Bass VI, strung E-E, just need to custom order the strings, and because it has 16.5mm spacing, the neck feels very similar to the SRs. The other BTB 6 and 7 I mentioned are from a local who's looking to move them along, and being in the middle of nowhere, they're hard to sell - also because of the string counts. I have some expensive car repairs to fund in the short term, but he's in no hurry.

    I bought my first set of Dunlop strap locks in the late 80's. I'm still using the same set on my main bass.

    Oh, crikey! There was me with a plan to stick a lovely fretless neck (recently acquired from someone who may or may not be on this thread) into my old Jazz body and then this comes up......gulp!

    GOT ONE!! You get a lot of bass for not a lot of pennies... Remember that Leo said that these were some of the best basses he'd ever built...he knew what he was doing...who are we to argue!!?? GLWTS

    I like baritone sax, and tenor when it's played well. The higher-pitched ones hurt my brain!
  11. Count Bassy
    Soprano OK then?

    Can't fault his enthusiasm though.

    Stick it on eBay for collection only at £1 no reserve and set the auction to run for 7 days ending on Sunday at 7pm. Add 10 good solid pictures and a non-AI description and it will sell. I'd estimate £150-£180. Happy to set the auction up if you send me some pictures, can run it as benefitting charity etc.

    All prices reduced by £5 and delivery to UK included. I made space on my pedal board for an HX One. It replaced my Xotic Bass RC Booster and the pedal I thought I'd never sell, my Creation Audio Grizzy. So I now have 5 pedals sitting around doing not a lot and a hankering for a Stomp Creation Audio Grizzly. £135 Flattley Poison Ivy Fuzz £85 Black Country Custom The 85 Octave £80 Xotic Bass RC Booster £60 TC Electronics 3rd Dimension Chorus £20 All in top condition. In fact the 85, 3rd Dim and Flattely are like new. All boxed except for the Grizzly (I will keep looking). Velcro'd as per the photos. Peter

    Now £430! Here's my Markbass cab up for sale. It is in near new condition and includes a Roqsolid cover. The top carpet has a couple of indents where the amp was placed on it. Other than that minor sign of normal use it's as new. It has been used several times at rehearsal at very low volume levels and at one gig where it was only used as a monitor as I was going through the PA. It is a great cab. A real one cab solution weighing approximately 18Kg or 40lbs. I'm 70, under 11 stone, have osteoporosis and have suffered a spinal fracture and I'm happy to lug it around. Specs briefly are 2 x 12" ceramic speakers 600 watts Piezo switchable tweeter with 2 levels of attenuation 57.8 x 60 x 47 cm https://www.markbass.it/product/mb58r-122-p-4/ Tone is very Markbass, i.e. effective. Collection or meet up only. I'm in Kendal, Lake District, NW England.

    Me too - brilliant things. I’ve had my Dunlop ones for eons now and have never let me down once. ( Also used to use Grolsch bottle top washers which were also reliable, albeit a bit awkward to get on and off.)

    It's taken me 30 years to find the right band, and in doing so I've realised how much I need a band, and how much shite was going on in my bands previously. I've joined around 30 bands, left 28 of them for the same reasons as you, and the other because had I stayed I'd have ended up a junkie. My current thing started as a way to catch up with mates, have a beer or two, and play some tunes, but it's working beautifully. Bands are like relationships, you just never know which one's going to work 👍

    Mrs T said “it’s draining you” and I completely agree. I’ve somehow become the bands guidance counsellor and I haven’t got it in me anymore. a real shame, some good music has happened but the inch pinching rows have done me in. I really don’t care enough.
  29. Lozz196 started following Just quit…big sell off incoming
  30. Lozz196
    I get where you’re coming from Andy - and I’m sure we all do - many years ago I left a couple of bands due to this, where it wasn’t adding anything to my life anymore but taking stuff away from it.
  31. AndyTravis
    Yeah, I’m in my 3rd or 4th mode of this. I haven’t got the time for the shite I used to tolerate just to be “in a band” anymore. It’s a choice to be in a band, to wade through weeks of nonsense just to make hours of music makes no sense to me. I don’t really need a band as such. Wish I’d learned how to sing 😆

    I was going to @Happy Jack, but as you can tell from the description these are very specialist speaker cables. 200m of cable, 4 square feet in section with gilded banana headsweet HDMI and USB connectors and weighing only 50g would be quite something!

    I put up with it for a long time in the 80's. Then one day, on the counter of a music shop in Leeds city centre, there was a sweet jar with hand written label "strap locks". It was full of these curious looking things. Have been using the same pair ever since. I recently took them apart and cleaned them for the first time as they were getting stiff. They must be 40 years old. How wonderful.
  35. Beedster
    All pat of the cycle mate, you'll shed a skin, find something new, and acquire a new skin. I'm on my 5th or 6th now 👍
