Weekend bump. -
[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1396053159' post='2409586'] Plus, only certain guitars/basses - in my view - look good with wear on them anyway. Fenders spring to mind quite quickly. Other makes, such as PRS to me look much better in immaculate condition. [/quote] Agreed, but they're actually Fenders I was referring to.

I don't see the point either. 99/100 the guitars look totally fake. People who buy expensive instruments tend to look after them, regardless of whether they're a pro or not. I personally know 2 guys who have 1970's basses/guitars. Both are in excellent condition, nothing beaten up about them. My Modulus is 15 years old, it'd pass as being 6 months old.

What's the difference between it and the 'normal' analogue chorus ? Anyone compared them ?

Just bought a TC Hall of fame, Dolphin music are doing them for £109 including free postage .

ambient replied to Thor's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Is the F1 still for sale ? -
[quote name='flunkie' timestamp='1396009622' post='2408949'] Trade only? [/quote] Doesn't have to be I guess, just can't be without an amp too long . -
[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1395961974' post='2408551'] Stock pic for ya: [/quote] Thanks

This is pretty much like new, comes with a MarkBass bag. It's slightly too big for me, I want the same thing in a smaller package so it'll fit in my gig bag. So I want to trade/swap for an F1 please.

Bump.

Getting fed up of bumping type bump. So someone make me a realistic offer, or offer me one of the basses in my signature for a trade.

This is an amazing bass, it's just the string spacing and neck are a little too wide for me, compared to my main bass which is my beloved Modulus. I'm also getting another fretless in a week or so, and don't really need 2 fretless basses. This is in mint condition, looks amazing and sounds beautiful. To be honest I'm probably gonna keep it, but we'll see. Photos and all details are here - [url="http://www.clementbass.com/web/Gallery/Bassgallery/tabid/55/ctl/Slideshow/mid/388/Default.aspx?path=SingleCuts/Clement%20268"]http://www.clementba...s/Clement%20268[/url] I have had a John East preamp installed in it, so that's the only difference between the specs and the actual bass. Controls are identical, it's just a 2 band stacked knob volume and pan, and a separate control each for bass cut/boost and treble cut/boost. Collection from either Birmingham or London only, shipping possible, but I really would prefer collection or meet up somewhere. I have a YP railcard so could possibly deliver or meet, for train fare. No trades unless it's for something I can sell on quickly.

I kind of meant on a score, so you can play cello music without having to transpose the notation up, assuming you have a low B.

In Birmingham there's this place which is really good [url="http://www.theoxygenrooms.com"]http://www.theoxygenrooms.com[/url] Then there's this place at the other end of the spectrum, last time I was there it was a dump. I'm guessing it's probably used mainly by males. [url="http://www.robannas-studios.co.uk"]http://www.robannas-studios.co.uk[/url] The only one I've used in London is this one, very good but also quite expensive. The once they even charged us for using a keyboard stand. [url="http://www.residentstudios.com/about-us/"]http://www.residentstudios.com/about-us/[/url] I've been to one in Leicester a few times, just out of the city centre, that was good, but I don't remember the name.

By the way, there's a load of cello scores here if anyone fancies playing some of this music. [url="http://www.score-on-line.com/freescores.php?collection=cello"]http://www.score-on-line.com/freescores.php?collection=cello[/url]

[quote name='leftybassman392' timestamp='1395648410' post='2404577'] I haven't heard that for a while and had forgotten what a truly magnificent performance it was. Thanks for sharing Ambient. If I may be so bold, another great piece of cello music - one that has been 'done' by a number of virtuoso bass players but here in it's original form (as played by another of the giants of the instrument): [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU_QR_FTt3E[/media] [/quote] I've got the CD of that. Brilliant, nice to see it being played too , thanks for the link.

Photos please ? -
[quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1395598947' post='2404180'] I am indeed having a bit of fun at Vic and Steve's expense, despite the fact that they are both very good at what they do, if you like that kind of thing, ect. However, joking aside, the naked fact is that the level of virtuosity of a musician like Jaqueline Du Pre is completely beyond the reach and comprehension of almost all the so-called virtuoso exponents of the bass guitar . Players of her stature make most of the jokers who grace the front covers of guitar magazines look like the flimsy pretenders that they are. What sets Jaqueline Du Pre apart from them is the amazing and awe-inspiring depth of feeling and personal expression in her playing. Yes she has flawless technique, but like the very best musicians, you are never aware of it, because as a listener you are captivated by the emotion of the music she creates. It takes God-given talent plus a lifetime of dedication, study and practise to make everything seem so natural and effortless. [/quote] Totally agree 100%.

I did read somewhere though, that he once sacked Anthony Jackson from his band, 'cos he wouldn't dance .

Had to play this one at uni the other week, great groove . [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_oNkVpBw1I"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_oNkVpBw1I[/url]

I think maybe the Zon's are slightly 'woodier' in their tone, I guess this could be due to the fretboards being made from a wood composite called Phenowood. Layers of birch wood impregnated with phenolic. Status basses and most Modulus are just phenolic resin. Though Modulus were sometimes built with chechen fretboards, Steve Lawson's are I believe.

[quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1395163306' post='2399370'] I like it, very moody and atmospheric. Did you decide not to go for a flute then? Having playing Oboe in a previous life, I have to say I think this piece suits the dynamic of an oboe. [/quote] Hi, Sorry I only just saw your reply. I'd still like to use flute too. I emailed your friend and sent her a rough mix of the music, she's probably like me and got loads of work on.

I had some flats from them a couple of years ago, they were pretty rubbish, just as you described. I just bought some more a few weeks ago and they're fine, quite nice and bright and flexible. Phone them and complain.

[quote name='marcus bell' timestamp='1395531835' post='2403518'] I love the tone , would quite like to try one as I love graphite necks [/quote] Me too, hence my wanted list below .
