Nope sorry, got one lovely 6er and that will do me for the moment, really just a sale I am looking for.

to the top with you

Yup! Solid and one hell of a beaut. The Korean models are meant to be higher quality than the more recent ones and I can't argue with that (bought this over buying a new Laky)

55-02, beautiful to play and very versatile, the MM pick up is split-able into either a Humbucker or either of the singles so there is a wide range of tones.

Ah my territory

I play a Dingwall Afterburner I 6 string, 37 - 33.25" fan. Joy to play. The point is that it gives you an immense sounding tight low B yet a supple and mellow sounding high C. Each string has an optimum scale length and sounds all the better for it, the 37" low string scale also allows me to pull off a meaty low A drop tuning. Very easy to play and takes no time to get used too, honest. Prefer it to any other 6 I have played, Sei's, Overwaters and other such quality instruments included (not saying they where bad by any means of course). Also a lot of fun for confusing the audience...especially at punk gigs!

LAKLAND

Wonderful basses, the 5501 and 5502s are comfortable to play and a great tonal variety. Try one in your area...then by my 5502 from me to save on pennies

yeah noticed as soon as I had posted that I had made that typo, corrected it but obviously not updated when you read it

Money is tight and my Dingwall is getting all the loving so sadly this has to go.

Lovely bass, one of the earlier Korean models and is fantastic quality in very good nic. Probably know the blurb but it is:

5 string, 35" scale
Maple neck
Natural finish
J MM pickup setup (Barts)
3 band EQ
Coil selector for MM (neck - MM - bridge)
Comes with black scratch plate but it is not screwed on, held in by friction. No chance of it falling off but means the bass is unmarked beneath.

Looking for £750 +p&p which is what I paid for it (from Thornybank (Chris) on here last September)

I would be up for it but with my 4th year of a MEng degree and two bands underway can't really help with the organising

[quote name='Happy Jack' post='776359' date='Mar 16 2010, 03:45 PM']Ad, the best match I've found is the Barefaced Midget. That angry 1x12 sound complements the Terror Bass buzz-saw tone really well. I did a 3-set gig on Saturday night using that combination, and my P-basses have never sounded so good.

Compact? Most people think it's my personal monitor and ask "Where's your cab?".

So long as your next gig doesn't clash with mine, you're welcome to borrow it for a night if you want.[/quote]

Terror Bass + Midget = Awesomeness! It is a fact.

Those Peaveys are nice basses.

New Orange tiny terror is one loud little amp and sounds sweet to, about £450 so would leave you a fair bit to spend on a cab.

[quote name='witterth' post='758390' date='Feb 26 2010, 05:04 PM']very often "can they use your gear?" questions are retorical ones, IME.[/quote]

I've said no before. Playing with a crappy emo/hardcore punk band once and the guys asked in advance could they use my amp and cab and I said no. I aint entrusting my expensesive electronics to someone who is potentially a hamfisted imbecile!

I am the opposite, I get hassle from the guys I play with some times for being a gear snob and insisting on using my gear.

"There is an amp there so you don't need yours"
"Yeah but it aint MY amp"

I have to come try this some time! Needing some setup work done by your fine self some time anyhoo so I will be in touch soon when funds are on the up.

i'll have it if you are going to burn it, can trade you an acoustic bass

[quote name='Jamesemt' post='754651' date='Feb 23 2010, 07:44 AM']Are low riders more zingy? I presumed they'd be more thumpy and ermm low[/quote]

the Lo refers to the high tension design allowing you to achieve very low action without fret buzz. I finf the nice and punchy without too much brightness,edgier that roto nickles though

I am cool with folk trying my bass, believe everyone should try a Dingwall at least once, BUT ONLY IF THEY ASK! If I came in to find someone playing my baby without permission I would have to go Chuck Norris on their ass!

Could try some punchier strings, DR lowriders are my preference
