  1. I know Bernie Goodfellow made a GB bass from various scraps of wood as a test bed for things and trying electronics out in etc, it was so good Mika's bass player had it painted and took it on tour on the proviso that Bernie had it back to destroy after so it never got refinished and ruined his reputation in years to come!
  2. Have you started on Geoff's discoverdoublebass youtube lessons yet?
  3. I didn't like the one I didn't buy but I'd have a a fair few thousand pounds in the bank off it now.
  4. It's never a simple as x is good y is bad is it? The RCF 15"s are excellent, there's no slowness in the 735 or 745 but they are £1000 each, plus you don't a sub so no matter how good or cheap the alto sub is it's an extra cost and storage/haulage. ¿puedes hablar español Tubster, donde en el Sur tú tocas con tu groupo?
  5. Good stuff, enjoy.
  6. I never sell anything, lol
  7. I wonder where they all are now?
  8. Then it wouldn't be a "Full Range" speaker anyway would it?
  9. I was offered a 50s P bass for £500 not that long ago, around 2001 maybe, it was very Mojo'd and I passed it off as fake but with hindsight and further knowledge of the seller I think I missed a trick there
  10. Peace and love,peace and love.
  11. A good full range pa cab should be able to reproduce everything the bass combo can and more, whether the Alto or similarly priced cabs are that good I don't know.
  12. I bought a fairly expensive one from Thomann, it came with some stitching that had come undone but it fitted my fairly deep bodied bass so I had a few quid off it and kept it, since then the handles have come open. On the plus side it's very well padded and fits my bass well. You really need to check the sizes before buying, not exactly like a P bass or Strat case.
  13. I've got to that age where I have to check ten times that I've actually put a bass in the van before setting off to each gig!
  14. I've always had my location below my avatar.
  15. Are there enough musicians as talented as SteveK to cover every band member in every band from the tickled trout to Wembley every day of the year?
  16. What we learnt last time was that most of the people that use a stand or are in a band where stands are used are too busy out playing gigs to care, the dancing audiences enjoying themselves do a good job of blocking the view of the stage area from the middle aged rocker that declares the stands terrible because he has played for forty years without one, yeah and that was when the most recent song in your set was written!
  17. Maybe it's a Glory hole? I'll google it and come back to you......
  18. Didn't Francis Rossi have a 'loop hole' in his Fender?
  19. It's all dutch to me.
  20. The profanity filter strikes again!
  21. Oooh matron
  22. It was easy to ban the Ric content from the forum because most of the members can't stand the clanky neckdiving tat anyway
