  1. I’ve never really understood this weekly practice thing that so many bands seem to have. Surely people should just learn their part at home, then maybe a couple of rehearsals prior to a gig, just to ensure everyone’s singing from the same sheet.
  2. In like new condition, not used outside of my studio. It’s brilliant, really comfortable, just a little too tall for my desk. It’s perfect though for sit-down gigs, or double bass. It folds down into quite a compact size. Price includes postage.
  3. They’re available from Amazon. Designacable make some nice cables. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Designacable-Custom-Length-Speakon-Neutrik/dp/B005GJ6NWY/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2CIMJDQILJZQ1&keywords=speakon+to+jack&qid=1557356164&s=gateway&sprefix=Speakon%2Caps%2C481&sr=8-4
  4. You have to watch them, sometimes they end up with your phone details and send you premium rate texts. My mom got caught by one a couple of years ago, it cost her the best part of £100.
  5. I use Adblock, I don’t get any adverts at all, just little boxes where they’re meant to be.
  6. A friend of mine uses one. He’s got a back injury. He uses it for long studio sessions.
  7. It’s a private party in a private establishment. You wouldn’t need a licence playing to people in your front room, you shouldn’t playing in someone else’s garden.
  8. Is it a technique problem? Are you sure you’re not accidentally muting the strings as you’re popping?
  9. It’s incredibly beautiful. He’s one of my favourite players. The new album is a mix of solo bass and ensemble tracks. There’s a really nice video here of him playing tracks from the album.

  10. My regular jazz gig is with guys all well into their 70s. One of my students is 82.
  11. With the environment in mind I like to travel by train where at all possible. Im I’m hoping that whatever I get will just clamp onto my bass stand, save carrying too much about. They look great thanks.
  12. This is my bass stand, a Hercules grab type. I’m hoping that whatever I get will just clamp onto it, save carrying more than one thing about with me.
  13. Thanks. I’m just a bit wary of the reliability of Amazon reviews 😁. I’ve got a Hercules bass stand, I guess it’ll work attached to the bass stand?
  14. Thanks for the replies. Are these things you use yourselves?
  15. All my real books are on pdf, plus I’m using iOS based processing for my solo bass stuff. Can anyone recommend a decent floor stand please?
  16. These are pretty cool. I’m not too keen on the synth sounds in some of the videos.
  17. Meditation and yoga both work well for me.
  18. Thanks, that link is great too, very useful. Yeah, I bought my CMD121P from you a couple of years ago.
  19. A list of trades: Cabs Markbass 1x12 Bergantino 1x12 Vanderkley 1x12 Heads Markbass LM3 Markbass Ninja Epifani Piccolo Bergantino Combos Markbass CMD121H Possibly interested in others too, try me. Everything plus cash to me, or from me as required.
  20. Can you tell me how it compares to the CMD121P please? I think I bought my CMD121P off you by the way 😊.
  21. It is indeed. A chambered body, 33” scale. Quilted maple back, olive wood facing.
  22. This is an old thread, the last posting now almost three years old. Time maybe to resurrect it. Here’s my new instrument. Tuned E-C.
  23. You certainly would. It’s incredibly loud as it is, with another 2x12 it would be immense. I’m going to get a separate Ninja head when this is sold, and partner it with a MB 1x12.
  24. Bump.
