Still not gone bad weather stopped viewers on Sunday ,go on make me an offer, i hate to think what a hand made bass of this quality would cost now?!Gotta be a bargain,i also have a nice 'GEDDY LEE' jazz up for around £500 practically plays itself![/quote]
sorry to hear the gordy didnt sell,
any offer i made at the moment would be an insult to both you and the bass, but if its still around in a month or two,
i may be back in the land of sensible offers
. if i keep off the beer and hide me spare change from the missus.
theres someone just posted in the hello part of the forum thats looking for a geddy lee.
good luck mate....

hello, is the gordy still for sale??

hello,
i have an electro acoustic bass and have tried playing with the strap tied round the neck,
but find it just wants to fall off my shoulder.
the bass has a strap button/input jack on the bottom of it and was wondering where the best place
to put one for the front of the strap, or will this potentially weaken the bass?

good luck, hope it all goes well for you.

all good advice , dont know if its too late but heres my tuppence in the cup
had a singer audition for a band i played in a while back, she spent time between
songs sending and reading text messages and wondering why the amps were buzzing and popping
as she sent messages. needless to say she didnt get the gig, switch yer phone off just incase you get
a call or message from a well wisher.
and as others have said if you dont feel the groove with them musically and as people then
mabe theyre not the band for you, if they want you, ask yourself do i want them??
drummers are generally a bit mad but its gotta be a mad that you like, he/shes the most important
one in the group after the bass of course.
just turn up early, setup the way you always do, be sensitive to volume, enjoy the experience,
and good luck, i hope its the band for you dude.

Haven't heard of the rees before, but if you're interested in buying British there's also Everson guitars, which have earned some good reports.

Certainly worth a look

cheers

thanks, ill check them out, im just wanting a good bass that doesnt make my left shoulder feel like its been carrying bags of cement all day.

hello all,
anyone out there played a rees f-light bass, or know much about them?
im currently playing an olp mm copy, and have decided that when im worthy of
getting something better id really like to support our flagging economy and buy
a home made bass thats not as heavy, the olp weighs in at around 5.5 kg
does a bass need to be so heavy?? ace site btw
