  1. The HS7s are great. I have a pair.
  2. My Markbass CMD121 is a brilliant combo.
  3. Check with YouTube ?
  4. The bass is the most vital bit. I'd look pretty silly sitting on stage with my Markbass combo, going dum, d dum dum dum .
  5. I've never found much difference between a 34" and a 35" tbh.
  6. http://www.prsformusic.com/aboutus/FAQs/copyrightfaqs/Pages/default.aspx
  7. Apparently they played at my local church hall. I was about minus 20 at the time, so don't remember anything about it .
  8. Is there a gain control on the pre ?
  9. Used for a couple of hours on my Yamaha TRBJP. Cut for a 34" scale, 3 tuners a side bass, but they were cut a little on the long side.
  10. Is it active ?
  11. Martin at the Gallery only charges £200 for a re-fret. He's one of the top luthiers in the country. So the £230 is definitely expensive.
  12. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1478001487' post='3165833'] I know I am in the right but feel bad even though I have no reason to things like this make me feel down have never been in a situation like this before [/quote] I'm the same. I always insist on people collecting basses that I sell in person. They can come over, and spend as long as they want to, trying the bass out. I've even in the past changed the strings whilst the guy was there, simply because the ones fitted were too light for him. There has to be a cut off though, and I'd have though that 2 months was well past that, and I'd have expected to have been contacted prior to any work being done.
  13. I listen to the whole thing, that's what the composer or band or whatever had in mind when they recorded it.
  14. Rather expensive for a re-fret ? And contacting you after 2 months ! Just ignore them.
  15. [quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1477948554' post='3165516'] I would also say Hondo. Looks a decent made instrument. How's it play and sound? [/quote] No idea I'm afraid. He sent me an email earlier, asking if I knew what it was, how much it was worth, and maybe if one of my students would be interested in it. He's a lovely old guy, and a great player.
  16. It belongs to a friend of mine. He's had it in his loft for years. Anyone have any idea as to the make etc ?[attachment=231206:unnamed-1.jpg][attachment=231207:unnamed.jpg]
  17. Quote and just delete the bits you don't want.
  18. New. Short version. £22.50 posted.
  19. Sixth edition. In good condition, no torn/missing pages. £25 posted.
  20. [quote name='mikel' timestamp='1477851459' post='3164839'] Thats not what "Stingray" said. [/quote] If you check their website, it tells you next to each item what's in stock and what isn't. It also says above the bass itinerary 'the basses listed below are physically in stock at bass direct'.
  21. [quote name='mikel' timestamp='1477845011' post='3164783'] Yea, I thought not. Thanks for the info, I was not aware it was a really small shop. Thats the problem with web adverts, you assume that what is on the web page is readily available. Glad its not like PMT, I get lost in the Birmingham store. [/quote] What they advertise is in stock.
  22. One of my top 5 bassists. Here with the Michel Petrucciani trio, featuring Steve Gadd on drums. [url="http://youtu.be/PlJRLkxMGcI"]http://youtu.be/PlJRLkxMGcI[/url]
  23. Anything is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it.
