What wasn't explained very well was that there were two studios, Fame (the original) and Muscle Shoals (which the musicians founded). So the story of two studios in one place. Tailed off mightily and went too sl;ow in the beginning (who gives a deck about what Bono thinks?) but a good watch nevertheless. -
Ta for the tip - I have a pal...

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]Beautiful example of this British-made active 90s classic 'active SuperJazz.' with alder body finished in stunning ice blue. Cost £1399 when first introduced. [/color][/font]Yours for just £649. [url="http://s92.photobucket.com/user/mickeyboro/media/P5032649.jpg.html"][/url] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]Controls are separate volumes plus (in active mode - via mini toggle switch) tone and a boost that affects both Hyperactive single-coil pickups. A third hum-cancelling one resides under the scratchplate.[/color][/font] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Ergonomic headstock with first-class Status branded hardware.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It has a little, unnoticeable while playing, wear on the back of the neck (below) and a small dent below the jack plug that has not gone thru to the wood (seen in second pic). Otherwise in fantastic condition for its age and looks great.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Neck is 24 frets and is [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]graphite reinforced three-piece maple[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]. 35" scale, 17.5mm string spacing at bridge.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]When I bought it the battery holder terminal seemed faulty. I gave it to my luthier and he replaced this, then gave it a good clean, re-strung it, set it up and returned it. The result is a fabulous bass with the wow factor, too good for a confirmed four-stringer like me...[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I will be travelling through France, Switzerland and Germany in a week or so's time, so personal delivery may be possible.[/font][/color] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]Sorry, no trades. Hard case pictured not included.[/color][/font] -
Just about to put my 5-stirng T-Bass up for sale. [url="http://s92.photobucket.com/user/mickeyboro/media/DSCF0421.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s92.photobucket.com/user/mickeyboro/media/DSCF0420.jpg.html"][/url]

[quote name='KevB' timestamp='1393850667' post='2384942'] Never would have guessed Jenny Haan as BR were one of those bands that passed me by, the only reason I know of them is that they get mentioned in relation to Bernie Marsden but didn't know any other band memebrs by name.[/quote] Funnily enough the last line-up with Marsden had a different singer, Ellie Hope. From a pop act, Liquid Gold. Not v good.

Fender Kingman Acoustic/Electric Bass - NOW SOLD
Mickeyboro replied to Lozz196's topic in Basses For Sale
Used to be mine - I paid same for it without case so a bargain I'd say. M -
Thanks for this - great stuff! Sounds live but drums don't seem to be miked up. Took me back to my youth.

Thanks Jack - direct link works. I have recently acquired one of these beauties (5-string) and it's three times as loud as anything else I own! Haven't yet decided if I will keep as five strings and me don't always mix - but if I don't I would dearly love to swop it for a four-stringer. EXTRA: Having read this now, I take issue with the reviewer that the two controls towards the bridge are active bass and treble. Mine seem to be tone and boost respectively... Still v useful review though.

Can't see the link described on the page - help! M

One of my best gigs and one of my worst. Best 1977 (Hammersmith Odeon), worst early 80s (a 50-minute show at the Venue, Victoria, when they were doing two a night). I might risk it!

He's doing a one man show on 9 Jan at the Powerhouse Studios in Chiswick. I may well attend...

Doc - pm me with your address. I haven't received it yet but I am a quick reader

Enjoyed that!

Bought my Kramer bass and was as communicative as can be. Absolutely no problems, and I have never sold a bass abroad (Belgium) before. Thank you Amo!

Yes please! PM'd

Sold to a very nice gentleman from Belgium! And thanks for the video Gust0o - great stuff. -
Now sold! -
Bought my Kingbass and was a very nice fella. Good communications, too. Deal with confidence as they say.

Bump of an aluminium kind...

Deke Leonard of Man is quite the writer if you want sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. Though as his publisher I admit I am biased... Order through this website before Xmas, quote Basschat and deduct £2 off the price of any of his three titles. [url="http://www.northdownpublishing.co.uk/id47.html"]http://www.northdownpublishing.co.uk/id47.html[/url] Plug over!

Bump (acoustic!)

Bump for an affordable classic that sets you apart from the crowd!
