I have a 1973 R'backer 4000 that needs a refret as I would like to start using it as it was my late father's bass. I am based in Banbury and am looking for someone who is within a reasonable drive from there.

I've seen this before, but seeing Saxon last week I was watching the breakdown of the set between them and Judas Priest and saw that their Bassist had 2 810's that were laid on their side and stacked on top of each other. given that in the usual configuration it won't make a difference if they are on their side or stood up, at least in terms of Speaker facing, why do some players do this?

Is there a popular bass player, that you just don’t get?
Kraken replied to Rayman's topic in General Discussion
aren't they. made me look again at the main player I don't get and think about if the problem is me or them. (it's definitely me). apologies Jeff Berlin, I will give you another listen. still hasn't changed my opinion that most Jazz is academic rather than music though -
Ampeg PF20T head + PF112HLF cab. Cover + carry case - *SOLD*

Price Drop - £600 I can’t justify keeping this amp as it has become a Backup for gigs that are large enough and that doesn’t seem to justify keeping it or hauling it around. It has lived its entire life in a rack case and sounds great from quiet to loud that Ampeg sound, no crackles on the pots, all amp outputs sound good, but I no longer have a Mono Bridge cable. The footswitch used to work and is the only thing I’ve not tested. I’m looking to sell this to fund the Purchase of an Ampeg PF-20T or PF-50T so will discuss terms for a swap for one of those if you are so inclined. If you want extra photo’s of something specific just ask and I’ll do my best to get that for you. Cash on collection – Ideally you will collect but willing to travel a short way (thinking about 30 Miles) from Banbury to meet. Been measured at 26Kg, which is the reason for this.

once upon a time I could, it would appear that skill has degraded with neglect. i've recently, for the first time, taken up the bass seat for a local musical production. that is prooving both the point that my skills for reading have degraded and has/is bringing them back quite quickly. just need to improve my sightreading a lot. - overall a good experience and one I'm enjoying (being tucked out of sight of the audience was something I didn't think I would like as much)

I've got the G50 and the amount of fun you can have running around venues with a wireless, you just have to be careful not to let the stage get too empty

just a quick note to thank Chaos Daveo for the sale, I'm finding this bass harder and harder to put down as the pictures do not do it justice and it sounds awesome. Dave himself was an absolute Gent when I picked it up offering all sorts of refreshment, I only wish I hadn't still a few hundred miles to drive at that point. in an effort to recover some face, however, I can say that I also got a copy of the Horny Goat Blues Band EP and it is fantastic, (the beast) Chupacabra and Hammer and Nail being a couple of stand out tracks and I'd recommend checking them out to anyone. (I'll be having a word with a couple of places I know round Buckinghamshire see if we can't get them to drive south for a night or two)

Can anyone recommend a band photographer?
Kraken replied to winterfire666's topic in General Discussion
did a gig many years ago with Thinking For Tuesday (sadly now defunct) that put us in touch with a chap called Andy Squire, top bloke, great photographer check out his website [url="http://andysquire.net/"]http://andysquire.net/[/url] Specific examples of his pictures at these links https://www.flickr.com/photos/thinkingfortuesday/5644852104/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/thinkingfortuesday/5644278305/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/thinkingfortuesday/5959980725/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/thinkingfortuesday/5640759368/ -
WITHDRAWN: TC BC210 cab £150 East Anglia
Kraken replied to lownote's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
This is the rig I am currently using for rehearsing and small venues. sounds great and is simple to use, the ability to use TonePrint with the head is great too (Controlled by the white knob). if you were a little closer I may have had the cab if it was remaining after Thunderbird was done. good luck with the sale. -
Just bought a TC Helicon Voicetone Correct XT from Andy, always in good communication, and really prompt with shipping and delivery. strikes me as one of the many people that make trading/buying/selling on this site a fantastic experience.

in previous Bands it was always about keeping it up to date and current as easily as possible, which basically meant updates from mobile phones or existing band sites, so we ended up with a site that used Reverbnation, Twitter, one of the Blog websites, had links to the online Music purchase sites amongst others. I think the site is still up [url="http://www.thinkingfortuesday.com"]www.thinkingfortuesday.com[/url] the band is no longer working but the site is still good. that said I'm not sure how much longer the site will still be there for as I think it is up for renewal this year.

Just got home with the [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Epiphone Les Paul Bass i've bought from Lozz. fantastic bass, described perfectly in the advert, communication was fantastic, even with me asking a bit of a random question about the Tuning Pegs. Perfect Gent to deal with, buy with confidence, deal with in confidence.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]was good to have a bit of a chat about Bass stuff too, turns out we have a bit of band history in common, hope to share a bill with you soon Lozz! beers all round.[/font][/color]
