Most excellent, thank you muchly!!!!

Anyone got an idea what this bass in the bag is? very familiar but cant place it!

I Purchased a Breedlove ABG from Steve. He arranged shipping (incredibly well packaged!), and chased the courier when they were not doing what they should. Bass exactly as described, and even traveled completely in tune!!! Would be very happy to deal again, thank you kindly good sir, looking forward to playing it

Cheers!

great, many thanks for the info

Hi all, I am looking for a small mixing desk (I think!) for my home office so hoping someone has done similar and can give the words of wisdom ... Requirements: I want to be able to hook up some PC playback software (no idea what!), and hook my bass into the PC (via the DI on amp, or direct to a desk?) ... the objective is to be able to play along to tracks on my PC, and have them all mixed in. I am aware there is software some of you use to speed up/slow down / change key of music etc? So - I am thinking I need perhaps to get a small mixing desk that I have the following inputs: - 1 for my mike - 1 for bass/instrument - 1 for laptop in - spare or two? - output to headphones - line-out to monitors Any advice most welcome! cheers.

Purchased! Many thanks for putting in the research!

Mine came today also, from Italian crowd. Git Alder sunburst 5 plus the sire bag (extra).. had to immediately adjust the truss, ckickity buzz buzz out of the box. Apart from that, its beautiful!

I ordered a sunburst alder 5 strung from an Italian crowd last week when Thomann showing mid march...due to land Tue it seems! ..will update here...they also had the sire soft/hard case in stock which I also ordered...

really enjoyable stuff ... subscribed everywhere (btw - the dancer in the red dress in 'too darn hot' .. wow! )

thanks all.

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1428588427' post='2742754'] Excellent mics, certainly, but let's not forget that the fellow is 12 years old, and there are budget considerations. [/quote] thats the key, thanks all for very welcome and valuable info!

thanks Matt.

ok, good info ... home recording = his bedroom - I got him a pair of those Vic Firth ear protection/headphones for Christmas ... so he tends to play along with things.. with what you have suggested I might get away reasonably then with 3 x mic, 2..3 booms and a 4 channel mixer (with phantom!) ... <off hunting>

thank you kindly ... rather swish!!! .... given your comments I am wondering about getting a simple set .. ie: something for the kick, then two mikes he can put on boom-stands at different heights etc and play around with. If I did this then I might squeeze in a small mixer (with phantom if neccessary) as well into the budget

thank you good sir, will check them out.

Hey all, so the girlfriend has a 12 year old who is quite reasonable on drums. He has been doing a lot of virtual jamming on "bandhub" and liking it a lot, but complaining a bit about his sound. Currently he records through his iPad. The birthday is coming up and I was thinking of getting him a mike-kit, a few boom stands and small mixer. Can anyone give some advice on anything worth getting? ... naturally dont want to spend a fortune - would be happy if he can get a slightly better or more controllable sound than from his iPad ! Had been looking around in thomann: https://www.thomann.de/ie/microphone_sets_for_drums.html cheers.

"I've also heard on the grapevine that Thomman are now offering a service where they set up the bass as requested and even fit a new set of strings if needed...which pretty much any new budget bass would." +1 .. Confirmed! ... They did it for me with specific string heights recommend by the esteemed Mr Gareth Hughes of this parish .. Very happy I went with Thomann!
