  1. Thanks for the nice comment Bassmate! The bass i still for sale and kan either be picked up in Stockholm or shipped abroad.
  2. Ok, the new baby (a real human baby that is ) has arrived and as I thought I've got no time to practice the fretless so it'll have to go. The bass, not the baby...
  3. I'm not really sure actually. I mostly use either parallel or series mode when using the bridge pickup.
  4. Added a picture from yesterdays gig at Stampen in Stockholm. [sharedmedia=core:attachments:105396]
  5. Haha, that must've been one of the fastest sales so far!

  7. The Windmill must be one of the best playing basses I've ever tried. Great balance, very light and it's so effortless to play. I can really recommend this bass.
  8. I traded basses with Paul a month ago and it was a pleasure. He shipped the bass to Stockholm and it arrived in perfect condition (and I mean PERFECT condition) within a week. Unfortunately the Swedish package service couldn't track the bass I sent after it left Sweden and reported it as located in Malmö for over a week. After a couple of days of anxiety and emails sent to the Postal service the bass was suddenly delivered at his place. Thanks for a great trade!
  9. Hi! I've got a Celinder Vintage and would like to lower the string action but have no idea which hex key size I should use. Even the smallest key I have at home that fits my other basses is to big for the Celinder bridge. Does anybody have an idea? Thanks!
  10. Even with my six string I was two upped by the guitarist. He builds his guitars himself and has plans for a resonator bass as well. I'm really curious to how it would sound and how much it would weigh...
  11. Two youtube clips with the bass from a gig last week. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qJhRvK4meA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4w1i3GfnzjU Constant bass-face.
  12. Added price. As stated above; if you think it's way off, please send me a PM and I'll gladly discuss.
  13. Hi, I'm having to little time practicing the fretless intonation and with soon having a baby I'm facing even less practicing time. Therefore I'm thinking of either selling this fine instrument or trading it for a fretted similar one. The bass is a vintage early ninties defretted six string F bass. It looks absolutely stunning, plays wonderfully with low action and has the best fretless sound I've heard. The bass has two split coil pickups which gives it a really fat and clear fretless tone and features the older preamp mentioned on the fbass homepage. The bass is in good condition apart from a dent on the bottom of the bass i didn't notice during the initial inspection. I've tried to capture images of the dent as faithfully I can. The unfinished neck also is a bit darkened from playing. Possible trades: Any fender style bass, preferably a 5str P. Price: 1700 GBP ([color=#ff0000]Noticeably lower price for a straight sale[/color]) Pictures can be found here: [url="https://www.dropbox.com/gallery/6416900/1/FBass?h=eb49d5"]https://www.dropbox..../FBass?h=eb49d5[/url] [attachment=99427:fbass.JPG] [attachment=107380:DSC_0035.JPG]
  14. Still not interested in my -92 fretless six string Fbass? I'll maybe thow in a 4str Sadowsky Will Lee as well.
  15. Hi! Sorry, I keep forgetting to watch this thread. Do you have any pictures of the Marleaux? I have hardly heard of theese instruments...
  16. Now it seems to be fine! I'll have a better look as soon as I can!
  17. Thank you for the offer but it's a bit too similar to my current bass. Edit: spelling...
  18. I've started by looking at the examples from slapit.com. I created a simple drumbeat in Logic with sixteenth notes on the hi hat, kick at 1 and 3 and snare at 2 and 4. Then i set the tempo to 30 and started to play the lick until I could play it REALLY CLEAN for maybe ten times and then recorded a few loops of the lick. This was a great way of finding bad sounding parts and try to correct them. When everything sounded great i increased the tempo a little bit and repeated the process. First i increased in steps of ten and then reducing the step size as the tempo increased. Above 70 or 80 i did only increments in steps of maybe 3 bpm. After a while I could play the licks in a fairly high tempo with good clean technique and it was really fun! When my slap technique gets better I could probably be bit less rigorous with the method though and maybe start at higher tempos and/or increase the tempo with bigger increments. I'm also realising I'm much more partial to the soloed neck pickup slap sound. I'm getting more and more convinced of going towards a P-style bass...
