  1. 1. Flatwounds do emphasize the mwaah a little less than rounds, but the difference isn’t huge unless your flats are dead as can be. Bright flats also help a lot. 2. Not necessarily, Ibby basses are generally good even the cheap ones. You can choose to not look at the lines, so blah blah to the unlined is easier comment. I would advise you to start with practicing the intonation, never mind the vibrato. Also switch off the chorus. Remember that the more meaty the finger the more to the middle of your finger the fretline will need to be to be in tune and your pinkie will likely be sharp if you do the same (more boney). Once intonation is back in shape start giving it more feel with both right and left hand. Also you get more mwaah when you play closer to the neck, heck I often anchor my thumb on the neck....! stop worrying and only play fretless for a bit, you will soon get back into it.
  2. F-in disgusting, also saw the vid. What gets me are the relative blasé reactions and statements by Universal I have been finding when I started looking into it a bit more.
  3. On the Hull to Rotterdam ferry, walked into the ferry band playing a Pink Floyd song..... sounded pretty good with a very decent bassist. We are everywhere 😂

      I didn't even know there was a Hull-Rotterdam ferry😂

  4. Look what I found.......! EBS-PRE Shortinfo.pdf
  5. They were made by EBS for Neuser, about ten to fifteen years ago. They were never sold commercially. That said, some people with good EBS connections were able to get their hands on them so you do see them every now and again. If I remember correctly they came in 2 (and maybe also 3 band), had a hi cut/mid-boost setting and a normal setting and were very transparent. Glock like. No more info than that I am afraid.
  6. Bas helped me solve my sellers' remorse ..... I just bought a Future Impact off him. We have done business several times and I only have positive things to say about them. Big thumbs up to a great BC-er.
  7. John bought my Radial JDI. Perfect gent, good comms, fast payment. Would deal with him again without any hesitation whatsoever. Thanks John, much appreciated!
  8. They are Harry Haeussels, I used to own this bass so am sure. Or at least it had them in when I owned it.
  9. I have decided to keep the Palmer, great travel headphone amp.
  10. Another Keely Compressor Pro/Bassist or GC2 supporter. Also the Markbass Compressore is very good. Did not like the Spectracomp at all, to offer some balance against some of the above. Point is I guess that compressor preference is very personal. I generally like DBX160 based compressors (the Keeley's are), others like Urei based pedals, others like Multiband compression.
  11. Oh no, RIP and strength to his friends and family.
  12. Still available.
  13. Thanks for making me feel normal! I just buy lots of stuff and find myself modding/upgrading almost everything, be it basses, amps or fx,
  14. And sold!
  15. And TRADED!
  16. I often take my little 30” Hohner travel bass. The mrs supports my “need” and as long as I practice when kids are in bed she does not cause me any grief, nor do I cause here grief with her need to read the most depressing quasi-literature she takes along for her enjoyment
  17. I bumped into a 2000 built L2500 a few months ago, and bought it for nostalgic reasons (I used them for many years). Great bass, great sound. Certainly not new, but not too many scuffs/dinks. However, I am 90% 4 string focussed nowadays and my Bogart 5 is really all the 5 that I need. As such I am looking to see if anyone would be interested in trading my L2500 against their Musicman Stingray 2 band EQ (not the 3) G&L L2000 or something similar like a Bongo or Dimension....Not looking to sell. The bass owes my 825 quid, so that is the rough trade value I am giving it. More pics upon request.
  18. Ernie Ball Cobalts, my favourite flats by some margin.
  19. It totally nails the Tim C tone..... I must admit I prefer it over the DG B7K emulation on my Helix, which already gets very close. Nice job EBS!
  20. Most certainly! You are the grand master of seller’s remorse dodging for which I respect and salute you 😁
  21. The game is called musical chairs 😛
  22. I have - as you may know/may not - procured a replacement ........ I was wrong, cannot do without it
  23. What a great page, nice one Herr Quatschmacher! Das ist gar kein quatsch
