  1. Maceo Parker - blimey there's a lot of good bands touring at the moment!
  2. After seeing a recommendation on the "How did your gig Go Last Night?" thread I bought a pair of the Ear Peace plugs. They've given me a 20% discount code for anyone to use- it's [url="http://earpeaceuk.refr.cc/S3LN649"]http://earpeaceuk.refr.cc/S3LN649[/url]
  3. So, I've had the 4 string version of this for a while now and it's been brilliant. After not really getting enough out of the Stingray % I had I decided to try the 5 string version of the T-bass. And the verdict? Great to play, not really sold on the looks. Really lovely neck - the slimmest I've played, the pickups and the controls have a great sound, although I don't think it needs the active circuitry personally. It's just a bit big in the body and a little bit too slabby for me - which I didn't think about the 4 string at all. Anyway, a couple of pics until the weekend when we get some decent light.

It arrived an absolutely MINT condition though! And with the weirdest gig bag I've ever seen - pic to follow!
  4. Our singer has asked to do this - WTF is going on in the chorus? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWFPNboy9ok&ab_channel=FunkyChickenAllStars
  5. [quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1447784203' post='2910384'] Appreciate the ear plug recommendations guys - thanks [/quote] Me too - I bought a set of ear peace plugs today - thanks!
  6. It was a Trace Elliot T-Bass 5! [URL=http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4781_zpstfaimvon.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/ii616/chaylockyer/IMG_4781_zpstfaimvon.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Plays lovely - that scratchplate will have to go though - ych a fi!
  7. Bump for this lovely bass - try me with offers!
  8. He accepted paypal and I received the bass today!
  9. [quote name='anzoid' timestamp='1444640746' post='2884634'] At the moment - absolutely nothing. Took possession of a Steinberger Synapse 4-string a month or so ago and it's pretty much "the one" (yeah, yeah, I know...). It's getting boring for the guys I play with as I keep turning up with the same bass... but it's so nice. [/quote] What you really want is a 5 string version then.
  10. A clip from Fridays gig - I'm behind the singer btw! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PasojrmDmNk&ab_channel=SuperChangoUK
  11. Bottom of the range, bolt on neck entry level bass. Try a Superheadless or a Thunder III and then tell us what you think of them. Obviously it's subjective anyway...
  12. Which one did you have? They really are that good.
  13. Due to my bass head blowing up at a gig I need to free up some funds so putting my least used bass up for sale I used it mainly for reggae/dub but found it really useful on jazz projects too thanks to the piezo pickup at the bridge. The controls make it really easy to blend the pickups and get the sound you want. Really nice to play, very responsive - great bass but I need some amp cash![list] [*][size=4]Cybrosonic Technology featuring an integrated graphite U-channel combined with a three-piece hard maple neck[/size] [*][size=4]Maple wings[/size] [*][size=4]Phenolic fingerboard[/size] [*][size=4]EMG USA humbucker[/size] [*][size=4]Piezo bridge[/size] [*][size=4]Ebony saddle[/size] [*][size=4]Direct-Drive double-ball bridge[/size] [*][size=4]Fold-down leg rest[/size] [*][size=4]Recessed tool holder[/size] [*][size=4]Recessed output jack[/size] [*][size=4]Strap hook[/size] [*][size=4]Combo headpiece[/size] [*][size=4]Zero fret[/size] [*][size=4]34" scale[/size] [*][size=4]Takes single- or double-ball strings[/size] [/list] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4761_zpsrrlhj97u.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4762_zpsigtpn2lc.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4763_zps2hx522aa.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4767_zpsmbitjwyy.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4768_zpsukvj4bi6.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4769_zpsx4yvrhuf.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4770_zpszk77d5ca.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1262.photobucket.com/user/chaylockyer/media/IMG_4771_zpslurfprp9.jpg.html"][/url]
  14. Ace gig with a new singer - Dionne Bennett from The Earth Band and Slowly Rolling Camera. Slightly marred by the fact that my TC RH450 head blew up in soundcheck
  15. Who wants it? I'm in Cardiff but may be able to get it to Bristol with someone else who's going to the gig.
  16. Are there any basschatters who live in or near Windermere who can vouch for Stu's Guitar Shop? I want to buy a bass from there but I can only find a facebook page and a twitter account - not an actual web page. The owner has asked for payment by bank transfer but I would want to do this until I find out it's a real shop! (I probably wouldn't want to do it this way at all actually) Thanks!
  17. It's a good feeling to get 2 free knobs from a stranger.
  18. Can you use a Dremel or similar to cut a notch in the truss rod?
  19. Try and remove it and learn some new skills!
  20. Ah really? Hmmm So do I go and see Corey Henry [i]sans [/i]Sharay in Bristol or Soul II Soul in Cardiff? Edit: Given that I saw Corey play with Snarky Puppy a couple of weeks ago too..
  21. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  22. Ooooh nice! A grand less and it would be in my price range GLWTS
  23. [quote name='countjodius' timestamp='1446957349' post='2903722'] I'd hoped to see Sharay with Cory too, but he's said that he will only be on the stateside dates unfortunately. Still be a beast of a gig whoever ends up handling bass duties though! [/quote] Where has he said that! He's Confirmed for the Monte carlo gig so I would think he's doing od the other European dates
