  1. I have one. It's not for sale. I play it upright, with the headstock beside my left ear. I've also seen pics of them fixed to mike stands, like a mini EUB.
  2. I've been meaning to ask, what's the neck profile? (I still want it, and I still can't afford it...)
  3. Sylvan Esso. I like them.
  4. Interesting., from my entirely ignorant perspective . Clever trigger mechanism. The strum/sample trigger feels like the trickiest bit from the user POV, because you will tend to get a single combination of sounds. Making it programmable is possible, I guess, but that sounds like a can of worms to use live. For studio stuff it seems fine though? . Could you put a guitar-chord sample on it? I don't see a reason to restrict yourself to drums
  5. Nice colour! Lucky for me, I am not looking for fretted fives... GLWYS!
  6. You're not wrong There is a big difference between learning your own part and playing with the whole band.
  7. This.
  8. Allegedly the traditional tuning was "to the studio piano" - presumably because that was hardest/slowest to tune.
  9. Could you put a string guide over that headstock crack?
  10. That's got to be uncomfortable to play sitting down.
  11. It's clearly good for sole. Metal, maybe not so much?
  12. I like the stand. Very organic-looking.
  13. That looks like a Danelectro with a hangover.
  14. Isn't that a thing sellers should include in the thread title?
  15. I wonder if you could put an arched bridge on it... I want to hear it played arco
  16. An extra one. I'm assuming it takes no-ball strings.
  17. Trying to slip one past us, eh?
  18. Shame they don't do a fretless version :) Good luck with your sale!
  19. Trampoline - Joe Henry.
  20. I have (still) a Kramer The Duke. (I've tried to sell it twice now... both times screwed up, not either buyer's fault.) I suppose I'll post it again at some stage. It sounds more like an octave-down electric than a "conventional" bass - I don't know how much of that is the pickup, I suppose the aluminium neck must have some effect. I did find it hard to keep in tune, but the design is not great and that may well be part of the problem.
  21. Expanding Wallets
  22. I heard him talking about it on Radio 6 a few weeks back. I may have misunderstood.
