Thanks. That was pretty much what we wound up doing: make sure the DGCF songs were in a single block. Singer would blether about a song briefly, that would be long enough.
I've tried similar things with a four-string. How do you organise your setlist? Are you retuning between songs? I wound up taking two basses to gigs (EADG and DGCF).
I had a Yamaha BBN5. Cheap as chips. played nicely, could have done with a pup upgrade but was quite adequate. I regret selling that, especially given what happened to it.
I have a bass which I keep trying to sell and keeps coming back to me... I should just break it for bits, I suppose. At least then it would be out of the rack.
Sean sold me some strings. All went smoothly and I'm a happy punter. This is the second time we've traded, and just as smooth and simple as the first. I'd be pleased to do so again.
Thanks Sean!
(Edit: He appears to have three feedback threads, which is why you won't find feedback from our first transaction above. It's in this thread:
We're clearing my mum's house, and there is a wheelchair ramp from the kitchen into the garage. It's quite long, substantial, purpose-made by a professional, and screwed to the floor.
If anyone wants it, let me know. You would have to collect.
