Hi, any advice on where best to sell physical CD's? The two I know of are CD Baby and Bandcamp. We're not expecting to sell that many but do want to offer them. All advice greatfully recieved.

If it does 15v it should be fine I would have thought.

I agree with the above. Yamaha BB's, G&L's, Sterlingrays, Ibanez Sr's or my choice an ATK805 if you can find If you are set on 35" scale a newish Ibby BTB or Yamaha TRB are great.

Loads of them from and around Bristol Here is Becky from IDestroy and Baz from the Funkinsteins for a start.

I never really got the Gibson bass thing. If it wasn't for Jack Bruce and Andy Fraser I wouldn't have given them a 2nd look Guitars? They have some nice ones but I preferred the old Guilds to be honest. I have a Guild LP at the moment.

Hmm that basically echoes what I reard on the radio today, where a guitarist said something like "lots of other companies now make Gibson style guitars that are better than gibsons.

Thanks for all the positve feedback. A pleasure doing business with you!

A user update: I used mine for an extended Jam last night with my band. It sounds great on it's own or in combination with other pedals and doesn't lessen the presence of the bass in the mix. I'm very happy with it. It has replaced my octave on my board.

At home I'm finding that I like the "bass cut" and "level" nice and high at 7+ and am then dialing in the depth until I get the effect I want. I'm expecting to have to increase the effects in the band situation as that is what I have found with other effects.

Mine arrived yestarday after a couple of delays. I couldn't be happier with the results and my ears are telling me that it the £30 that I spent in a long time as it does it's job very well. It's much smaller than I imaged from the pictures too.

I have to agree with this and have had many of the others you mention as i'm a bit of a gear slut! I prefer a 34" scale to play live, which rules out some Sandbergs always seem great to play, high end ibanez's are great also. I have to say that the Stingrays, (include Sterling Ray35's) and Ibanez's are my favourites to play live. SR Note: Ibanez have a tight string spacing

Thats the important thing, Although I now play something different I rate these too....

What about a band made up of nothing but bass players using different gear??

Thanks for the heads up. I wanted a chorus to try on one track so this should be just the job. An amazing deal for quality kit

I hope to partake in Mr's Scrumpys culinary delights but can't say for definate yet. I can bring a bass or two from....Ibby BTB1805, ATK 805, BC SB335 or G&L SB2. I'm not looking to sell or buy so let me know if anyone has preferences.

I was at The Free For All festival last night in Bristol. Friday night and full of young folk enjoying themselves. Young bands playing. All for free..... It was good for my soul if nothing else

Where does a new band start with promotion? It's a tough one |t was always tough but at least you knew where to start...now everything is so spread out and fragmented.

Wowzer, lovely looking bass and a great job

Positive stories Dad and Josie. Another issue that makes is difficult for a band starting now is the way the promotional media and audience habbits is fragmented. When I started promoting our band 4 years ago I used to be on FB and Twitter and used to get a pretty good response from that. Now FB has changed and isn't as effective at reaching people and Instagram, Snapchat and watszap or whatever divide peoples time. I'm also on Reverbation, Ents 24 and need somewhere to sell gear so am looking at joining Bandcamp. That means that the amount of time spent infront of the PC has multiplied and the message about say our next gig is more difficult to get across. Add that to the change in audience habbits that seems to be going on and promotion is becoming a bit of a nightmare. Thank goodness there are so many festivals about as at least you know that there will be people there.
