  1. Does anyone have any experience with GEWA basses? I keep being drawn back to look at this hybrid. Made in Asia (China?) I believe.. Can't really find any in depth knowledge about them so far. What do you think? https://gewastrings.com/product/23674/gewa-double-bass-premium-line-semi-solid-model.html

  3. I love Morrissey. Always will. The Smiths were such a pivotal part of my navigation through the 80s as a teenager.. I don't agree with his old fashioned political views at all, which are much the same as most of my elder family members unfortunately, but no love lost there either. As for The Simpsons.. "Hamburgers are Homicide"!! Come on, that's hilarious!! πŸ‘
  4. I'm sure it will now. GLWTS ✌️
  5. It's not a dull discussion point if someone ends up disappointed by their purchase. I'm just trying to save you a headache later on too. My intentions are well meant friend.. The MIM Classic 50s Lacquer Precision was only offered in Black and White Blonde finishes. Fact. They were more expensive than the regular MIM Classic 50s Precisions that had a polyurethane finish, which were available in 2 tone Sunburst (the bass you have for sale), Fiesta Red and Honey Blonde. I'm not Mexican, just well informed. πŸ˜‰
  6. Lovely bass, but these had a poly finish not nitro mate.
  7. Best: After a gibbering frenzy of basses in and out this year which reached it's crescendo with the acquisition of a rare lightweight 1991 Stingray 5, I now have my "Excalibur". Worst: I bought a used MacBook and a Focusrite interface to finally get into the world of home creations. They are probably great but I haven't had time to even turn them on yet. An additional expense I could do without right now but at least they're there for when I do! Plans for 2021: Total gear abstinence (don't laugh) and begin to get involved with the monthly composition fun and games on here. Lessons learned: Playing all the time keeps the GAS voices quiet!
  8. I sent one on Monday arrived Tuesday fine. Interparcel premium via UPS.

    How are you finding the Ditto X2 @ped? I'm thinking of getting one and I don't want anything complicated. Would be nice to have someone to jam with, even if it's me πŸ˜„ Pros and cons?
  10. "I just loved your bass, I could feel it inside my pus*y.." This was actually said to me during a load out once. A very pretty yet hammered girl. I was stone cold sober (driving) and honestly didn't know which way to look or what to say other than "thanks" I'm alright at playing rock n roll, always been crap at being it!
  11. £700 posted Really really properly last time price drop ☺️
  12. Sinead O'Brien. She's my favourite new artist. It's almost like she's the Irish granddaughter of The Fall πŸ‘Œ
  13. "SCHTEPP IN TOIME!! SCHTEPP IN TOIME!!" 🀣🀣 But I wouldn't have it any other way though. Loved MP as a kid as my kids do now.
  14. I suggest this too. I'm only halfway through but it's proving to be a very nice surprise.
  15. Β£750 posted Last price drop.
  16. Looks interesting. From the title I expected to see one of these..
  17. Yes it is really, the serial number is 2000 and something.. It feels like a 'Bass Birth Year Bass' actually as I began learning/playing bass in '91 ☺️
  18. Thanks for all the input guys. I ended up with a 1991 Stingray 5 which I'm over the moon with. A rare lightweight one with a lovely Birdseye maple neck 😍 Crap picture but here it is..
  19. King Kong - The Mothers Of Invention
  20. I've still got the original HB strings on mine, about 5 years old now! Still sounds ace. I bought some Dunlop flats for it but I'm afraid to put them on in case I kill the mojo πŸ˜„
  21. Thanks πŸ™‚ I'm not sure exactly but it's not a heavyweight. I'd say between 7.5lbs and 8lbs but I'll try to find out exactly later.
