  1. [quote name='AdamWoodBass' post='485474' date='May 12 2009, 12:08 AM']These are such good basses, I played a similar one in PMT in Manchester a couple of weeks ago and I just couldn't get over the definition on the thing. I've played basses in excess of £2000 which couldn't touch these for tone and versitillaty. If you're looking for a bass that will do pretty much anything then I'd say you won't go too far wrong with this. A pleasure to play and the sound was huuuuge. Oh and a big plus, theres no volume differential on the Lo B! It sounds just as good as the rest of the strings! Amazing bass!

    Good luck with the sale matey! I doubt you'll be waiting too long for a sale on this.

    I've got one and boy is it ace! Can't recommend them highly enough for ANY style you play

  2. A top bloke, very easy to deal with and makes a nice cup of coffee too

    Shame about the result today but you were right!!!

    Best wishes mate

  3. No worries, thanks for letting me know and the other titbits too!

    Cheers

    The [url="http://www.basscentre.com/sale-used-and-ex-demo/ns-design-cr5p-upright-bass-ex-demo.html"]Bass centre[/url] has a special on at the momment.

    And there is this on [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=43758&hl=NS"]here[/url][/quote]

  4. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40794"]Lowdown 110![/url] A cracking little practice amp which you can multi task live/in the studio with as well if required

    I love mine and loved my Lowdown 150 too when I had one of them previously (the latter is probably venturin out of noodling at home territory mind)

  5. Always wanted to sing and play but could never get my head round it until I plucked up the courage to force myself (not literally) onto one of my current bands!

    I find myself having to put my mind somewhere completely elsewhere and it's almost like I'm experiencing something "out of body" but it does work! Knowing and simplifying/cheating the bassline is almost essential for me but I tend to keep it simple with these boys anyway - ukuleles only need some much behind them!

    I practiced by visualising my fretting and plucking hands doing their bit without a bass whilst actually singing, for me it was far more forgiving than constantly getting my timings wrong and hitting bum notes on my own - really, really focussing on a solid part of the song (doesn't have to be the drums either) helped me loads. I really struggle with anything which isn't 4/4 tho, or any song where I cant yet find that something solid

    Massive respect anyone who can play whilst singing lead vocal - Phil Lynott = legend

    ;)

  6. EDIT: Sold



    Got something else in mind and a bit of the old GAS so testing the water... If I can flog it to anyone interested then all's good!

    Has been gigged but only in my ukulele band and through a PA so never rinsed - volume has never been past 2pm position - handles a low B with ease and is a delight to record with and soooo portable man!!! ;)

    I just can't shake the GAS for something else!!!

    Please drop me a line if you want to talk turkey, say £100 plus postage? The new 15 watt version is the same price innit? Surely a bargain!

    Cheers

    Pic below, taken recording our last album! You can just about see her in the background... apologies for the concentration (and donut) induced double chin and leg brace!!!

  7. A top bloke to deal with and despite not setting up his own feedback thread, highly recommended!!! ;)

    Bought an ODB-3 from him recently; made it very easy with great communications and quick delivery with tip top packaging!

    Cheers!

  8. Got involved in a bit of the old swapsies + cash with Eude - a great guy with lovely communications/email manner

    A 100% pleasure to deal with, hope you enjoy your new pedal mate!

    Best wishes

    Thanks friend, have amended as suggested so might as well bump it again!

    Fingers crossed that someone jumps soon! ;)
