  1. Some better quality pics.... [url="https://www.flickr.com/gp/136628837@N06/gg380b"]https://www.flickr.com/gp/136628837@N06/gg380b[/url]
  2. Hi All Putting my Dingwall Afterburner 1, 5 string bass up for sale. No trades on this one. Just over 2 years old and in excellent condition. Purple burst finish still looks stunning! 3 piece maple neck with Wenge fingerboard, 34-37" fanned frets, takes just minutes to get used to. These basses have so much clarity and balance for a passive instrument - one of the best and loudest passive basses you can play (in my opinion!). Combined with its light weight (8lb 5oz!) its a joy to play. Complete with hipshot detuner. Comes with standard Dingwall bag. Free postage in the UK Any questions...let me know (trouble loading photo's direct, follow the link below) [url="https://www.flickr.com/gp/136628837@N06/4xtYj9"]https://www.flickr.c...8837@N06/4xtYj9[/url] Steve

Set in the lateral mode, the pickup has unparalleled sensitivity in the direction of the bow. In the vertical mode, plucked notes are remarkably even and sustained.

The 18 volt power supply insures plenty of reserve overhead for full dynamics. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]ADJUSTABLE BRIDGE: Two screws in the back of the body are used to adjust the bridge up and down. This allows the instrument to be set up to meet the requirements of many different playing styles.[/size][/font][/color] [attachment=160508:20131127_214813.jpg] [attachment=160510:20131127_214826.jpg] [attachment=160511:20131127_214851.jpg] [attachment=160512:20131127_215046.jpg] Thanks for looking.
  7. If they helps you get your creativity out in a way that is tasteful and pleasing to the ears, then yes use them.
  8. I use a looper, mainly at home for practicing timings and getting some chord progression or melody ideas that help playing live. I used to find bass quite 'difficult' to practice alone so my looper proved a good friend. You can struggle to find a start, middle and end with them with but with other effects you can create some interesting textures. Its all about getting your ideas out there and looping is one way of doing that. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGfaDH2iudU[/media]

  12. SWR Goliath III Junior Cab. Left speaker was changed years ago and all in good working order The cab has been in regular use at small gigs or as an extension to my old 4x10, but alas, he's no longer needed. Good condition considering its use had the cover until it finally fell apart recently. Based in Derby, collection only. Looking for £125.
  13. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1359076566' post='1949694'] I don't even know why I have the phobia, I've had it all my life! It's just being inside one that sets me off... sweating, nausea, and anxiety, followed by vomiting and sometimes fainting if I don't leave right away. Come to think of it, the same thing happened when I did a school nativity play! Maybe it means I'm the antichrist?? [/quote] sounds more cleansing than a phobia!
  14. drums are perfect for you if you're tone deaf
  15. i used to have LEDs in my warwick, they ate batteries, (3x9v) and most of the time i just put black tape on the back of the neck. Good indoors, rubbish out doors/ bright lights. Don't bother ...IMO
