There's an 'ignore list' in the [i]your profile[/i] drop-down at the top right. I suggest that putting BeardyBob on it might be a good idea for those who don't want to read his stuff.

Just a thought.

Spare a thought for us Mods, we can't put anyone on ignore [size=4] [/size]

Will share it up on FB as well.

Feel for you mate

Hutton speaks the truth. [size=4] [/size]

[size=4]Make the effort and put up pics. We all love pics.[/size]

What a cracker. The bass and your other half [size=4] [/size]

A huge amount of effects for just £85, bump.

You now have a set of knobs to be proud of mate. [size=4] [/size]

James, you have had your answer from the only people that you need to be taking any notice of.

For me, that would be end of discussion [size=4] [/size][size=4] [/size]

I always take two basses to each and every gig.

You'll "come by and look at it". Look at it? Is that it?
You won't play it and buy it? Just *look*.

I bet Gary can't bear the anticipation.

I just play each and every note on the instrument, first unplugged and then through an amp. No tunes necessary.

One of my faves.
I recommend the album "A nod's as Good as a Wink"

Just love their feel, it sounds a bit loose and like it could all fall to bits. [size=4] [/size]

bumping again.

First bump of the month [size=4] [/size]

Another weekend and another bump [size=4] [/size]

Thank you. No, it's the black one. I looked long and hard at the blue beauty that was on here a while ago but SevenReason's black one just had something about it. Plus, he had the P pickup, guard and a Glock preamp all included which kind of made up my mind for me.

Pics will come

Very nice, I was tempted by that one [size=4] [/size]

Is it the blue one? Whichever one, congrats and get some pics up.

There is far too much slating of Roger Waters.

I was watching some footage a few nights back and thinking how what he was playing was exactly right for the particular number, very few notes but perfectly placed and very restrained.

That must have been a disappointment, it went for less than it should have done. Someone got a lot of bass for that price.

April..? That's a bit pessimistic! Though as you're on page 4, I can understand why...
[/quote]

Rather than being pessimistic, I look at it as enjoying a lovely instrument for a few more months......honest

I would reckon... yes it would have.
[/quote]

So do I but there was some really pleasing bass playing on that album.

Friday night bump..

[size=6] IT'S JUST £85 [/size]

[size=6] [/size][size=6] [/size]
[size=6][size=1]BUMP[/size][/size]

I look at this ad daily, Gary. I really want it, but just can't justify it to my other half in the middle of a house renovation :-/

Argh!
[/quote]

I understand mate. you never know it might still be here when the house renovation is complete.

In 1981 I had one just like this save for the dark fingerboard and for it being a fretless ... had the thumb rest, the lot. I wish I still had it ... if I was single, I'd buy this just for the hell of it and not even play it which would be a shame but I'd just hang it on the wall or something. But I'm not so I can't get it through ...

It's a beautiful piece of workmanship though ...

Cheers.

That's a beautiful bass indeed! I'll be in London next year in April. If it's still for sale by then, I'll come by and have a look at it...
[/quote]

I'll look forward to meeting you then

Seeing your post and Robs has reminded me that I had to use my MXR M80 pre amp to get it sounding the way I like it.

I love my Dingwall but have to admit that when gigging with it, I do have to mess a bit with eq'ing to get it sounding the way I like.

The problem is probably me rather than the instrument, I'm just so used to my G&L's that are very much plug and play.
