  1. Best get the main band sorted out first. Dave
  2. Dingwall Combustion NG2 5 string bass in gorgeous black with matching black headstock. Active / Passive switch Volume PU selector - 4 positions Neck only, both in Parallel, both in Series, Bridge only Bass, Lo mid, Hi mid EQ pots Bought new from Bass Direct a few yrs ago for a prog project that required a 5 string. Was only used for a few rehearsals and some studio recording work. Very rarely played even at home. Bass is therefore in perfect condition with no marks, dings, scratches or even fret wear. Currently fitted with Dingwall nickel strings. Smoke free home. No longer required as i'm only using 4 string basses these days. COLLECTION ONLY as no case available.
  3. That is nice. I'm liking it. Hints of acoustic John Martyn in there.
  4. You guys have started a fashion movement i reckon.
  5. A good bass player needs special trousers.
  6. That's pretty good. Youtubed and good live too.
  7. I've replied to some ads on JMB, Gumtree and Bandmix and usually i get a reply within few days but i've had no reply whatsoever on all of the above as well. You've jjust got to keep at it until something comes along.
  8. Know what you mean
  9. We al thought you were just a kool dude.
  10. Like others have said i can play other spacing but i find i'm missing strings and don't play as accurately with my right hand finger style. I do get used to it reasonably quick but when going back to 18mm i have same issue so its easier keeping same 18mm spacing that i like. Dave
  11. 18mm for me. Bought my first 6 stringer few yrs back an ESP Ltd and it was 16mm and found it difficult to get used to. I now make sure my basses all have 18mm.
  12. Aye we all know
  13. I found the T bird basses in line with US Fenders for pricing. Always quite liked the Grabber bass too but the tone just doesn't do it for me. Had an Epi T Bird but just not for me. On saying that i would still like to have a Gibson T Bird just to say i've had one. I like the look of them. Dave
  14. Some audiences just see the band as a jukebox or backng music for an event or night out. Its a difficult one and can dent your enthusiasm when playing if you get little or no response. Always plan to play after they are all sozzled. Job Done. Dave
  15. RIP Condolences and sympathy to family and friends. Dave
  16. Must be a young persons thing. Not for me either. Dave
  17. Saw them on that tour at Glasgow. Was hugely impressed by Max Webster. Bought the album and their bass player was a great player as well as a bit of a showman.
  18. Jack Bruce Chris Squire Geddy Lee Jeff Berlin (not 100% sure i could recognise every time but maybe)
  19. Ultimate Bowie at Motherwell last night. Another fantastic tribute to the late great David Bowie. Probably the best tribute act i've seen. Dave
  20. I'm guessing Berkeley by the gear description. Out of curiosity did you change the active / passive switch on the amp when changing basses from passive to active. If not you might find the amp was being driven harder because of the active circuit. It gives those EBS heads quite a kick when playing like that. Dave
  21. Our guitarist has just bought one of those last week and put a Bigsby trem on it. Bringing it to rehearsals tomorrow to see how it sounds before gigging with it. Dave
  22. I'd call that dedication rather than geekiness
  23. All the best with it Blue. Dave
  24. +1 for Chris McIntyre. He did some work on my Warwick Thumb NT. Brilliant, knowledgeable, very helpful and just a really nice guy. His list of customers is something to behold. Not expensive either. Dave
