  1. We could ask @Bart Funk Bass , he was on the site earlier this week.
  2. My 465 seems OK, maybe the ebony board adds a bit of density or stiffness? I don't know.
  3. A used SGC Nanyo Bass Collection would fit the bill and would be a cost-effective option. There's one in the classifieds here:
  4. There were a few about, but Paul was obviously waiting for Yamaha to perfect the concept with the BB1200.
  5. @Happy Jack just think of all those Beatle choons you could have learned!
  6. Just make sure you don't have the receipt for it in your luggage. And steer clear of brazilian rosewood fingerboards.
  7. Thanks Paddy, I'll let you know. I was hoping to find someone full time though.
  8. If you want to sound like an upright - get an upright.
  9. Yes. It's a relatively small number of forums. I prefer not to have default home screen that shows loads of popular threads in forums I don't read, unless as BRX says there's an option to revert to the traditional view.
  10. Or use google instead of the built-in search engine: Fender Jazz site:https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/16-bass-guitars/ typed into the search box will do it.
  11. No white X on my browser interface either. And a second banner, about the FAQ, which seems tied to this section.
  12. Finally, a reason to own one!
  13. You got me there. I can afford to move house, but performance video ? Not a hope. I guess I could send you performance video of someone else, you'ld never find out until I showed up for the audition 🙂
  14. There was a discussion about this in the Glastonbury thread. Unsurprisingly I can't remember what the conclusion was, if there was one.
  15. An acoustic bass guitar, or a 6-string acoustic guitar?
  16. Sorry I can't be there, Remembrance Sunday so I have a prior engagement. Hope you all have a great day.
  17. Since you bought this from G4M, have you tried taking it up with them? After all they are the ones who have a contract with DX, not you.
  18. Damn @Beedster you would have been the perfect person! Here's a clip from a recent acoustic showcase set we did at Coda in Colchester, recorded on someone's phone so the sound isn't great.
  19. Yes, we're still looking. I'm on holiday for the next couple of weeks so I won't be on basschat much but you can reach me through email to [email protected] And we're playing at Folk East on Sunday 20th, in the main bar during the afternoon. If anyone is there please come up and say hello.
  20. 10 years ago I gave away my 100-year-old boudoir grand. It went to a guy who runs a local recording studio.
  21. @ChrisSP I think you have a story to tell that a lot of us would love to hear.
  22. I bought a PSU from Dean - great transaction. I'm happy to recommend him.
  23. As far as I'm concerned, this qualifies under 'wonderful'. Price might be a tad optimistic though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334960680527?hash=item4dfd365e4f:g:9wcAAOSwf8ZketvW
  24. It's just occurred to me that I used to use a volume pedal with my bouzouki. The pedal I used has a control which allows you to set a minimum volume. I'd set it to max for single string stuff and then back it off for multiple string strumming. I've still got the pedal if you want to give it a go.
