Have a 5 string 2007 Rockbass Streamer LX I recently bought to keep my 4 string Vampyre RB company. I also have in my possesion a 5 string 2 piece warwick "3D" bridge. You can see where I am going with this... Does anyone have any pointers/diagrams/templates/advice on fitting the 3D in place of the older Fender type high mass? Particularly the depth of rout the bridge and tailpiece sit in? Or (as I am more of a hobbyist) suggest someone in the midlands who could do the routing for me? I have no issues with reparing empty screw holes etc myself but the thought of wrecking the bass by messing up the routing is a bit unnerving..

Teignmouth McDonald...

Cardinal Biggles.. fetch *DRAMATIC PAUSE* THE COMFY CHAIR...

I probably meant Grabber.. always get mixed up 😳 must be rare if you haven't seen one before.

Not seen one of these before. Mayas are quite decent basses. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Maya-Bass-Guitar-project/223460540363?hash=item3407493fcb:g:3uMAAOSwtwVcmRWf

Just bought a set of 70s style Wilkinson P bass tuners from Tony. No issues at all. Good bloke.

Bought Neils surplus Hipshot Xtender. Paid Sunday, posted Monday, arrived Tuesday with apocalypse-proof packaging...😊 very happy, cheers matey

He says Roadstar not Roadster.. like it is a good thing..

My Royal Blood-Esque setup

No it was quite recent. Saw one for sale on Facebook a few months back and looked up the maker - was a small-ish company (I get the impression they are like a smaller "Vintage" type operation). Peaked my interest as I have always liked the look of the B-20 and they dont pop up often and are pricey due to rareity. .

A while ago on Facebook I saw a bass up for sale that was a similair design to a Washburn B-20. Cant for the life of me remember the name of the Maker (did look up their website but like an idiot didnt save a link to it). Have a feeling they were UK based. Dont suppose anyone has any idea who it is that makes them?

Its this one https://www.gak.co.uk/en/behringer-ultrabass-bb210/923 The horror stories I heard were the cones seperating from the chassis of the speaker. The actual cabinet iteslf is quite sturdy - and heavy (Granted not as heavy as my 4x10 and it takes up less space in the boot!) Will measure it up tomorrow.

Having collected it from a nice guy in Coventry at Black rose Studios (he has a second one going if anyone is interested) it actually doesnt sound too bad. I have heard horror storys about the drivers in these literally coming apart!

I've managed to pick up a cheap 2x10 Cab that I am intending to use for rehersals as it is more portable than my 4x10. Its (I know... I know...) a Behringer Ultrabass BB210. Supposedly its a 600w Cab... I have read terrible things about the 10" drivers in them so I am looking to replace them sharpish with something more "fit for purpose". Going to be running my Terror Bass 500 through it. can anyone suggest some reasonably priced 10" Speakers - Im guessing I will be looking at 250+ Watts and 16 ohms each ( Cab is nominally 8 ohm) . Never needed to replace speakers so I wouldnt know where to start. I obviously dont want gold standard platinum coated speakers, just something reasonable that isnt going to disintegrate!

I stopped playing for 10 years. I am almost at that point again.

It makes me feel like Im lost at sea - Cold and wishing for a swift death.

Why. Just WHY?

Could have been stolen?

Because its easier to sell a chinese £60 P or J for £200 by claiming its a Greco than trying to pass one off as a £1k fender.
