  1. 1 minute's googling to help out a BC pal. I am damn good at googling!

  4. [quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1386161857' post='2296527'] Just going to bump this thread to re-iterate what a bloody good album this is! I've been in danger of overplaying it the last couple of weeks, but several of the songs have been firmly stuck in my head the whole time. [i]Monte Carlo [/i]is truly infectious as an earworm, and [i]Joe [/i]is still making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Bloody good stuff sir, bloody good. [/quote] Thanks matey - much appreciated Perhaps see you at a gig in New Year? - we have a couple booked in January (Sat 11th at Spice of Life in Soho, and Thurs 16th at The Finsbury, next to Finsbury Park)
  5. I got this new model Minimark 2x8" combo a couple of months ago as a transport-friendly combo for my double bass (weighs just 23 pounds). It sounds great, even though it has limited EQ options (just the MarkBass VLE and VPF filters, which are effectively a treble cut and a mid scoop), and has plenty of volume for smaller gigs and rehearsals at 150W. While you don't need a preamp in front with double bass, I used a Headway EDB-2 as I needed to tame the piezo 'quack' from my Baby Bass' Shadow pickup. Sounds very rich with electric bass (Fender P or J). The combo is in very good condition and has been 'babied', like all my gear. Comes with a protective RoqSolid carry bag I custom ordered (one of the handles has come unstitched and needs supergluing but its perfectly functional). Only putting this up for sale as its not actually much smaller than my MarkBass CMD121P combo (29 pounds), plus the money would come in useful! These are £816 new at all UK retailers, as far as I can see (Sounds Live, Promenade etc) and the RoqSolid bag was another £30-odd. I will do this for £625 posted or £600 hand-over in London.

  6. [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1385748281' post='2291857'] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBqcHDDuDo8[/media] [/quote] not heard of this guy before (I did a search on TalkBass in their extensive DB section and there is one tiny thread on him). Very nice clip, Dave. Will have to check out more from him and his band
  7. tell you what, as its quite a lot of money for one string, lets call it £25 posted
  8. This bass is now sold pending payment
  9. [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1385995542' post='2294398'] Anyone want Clarky's used G string? [/quote] Its the way he tells 'em
  10. I got this Lenzner gut G string (the polished surface version) when I started worrying about my Velvet Anima G which was in the process of dying. Velvet were then kind enough to send me a replacement G, no quesions asked and very speedily. So this gut string has basically one week's of home play only and is still in pristine condition. The only difference from new is its pre-stretched (well it has a week of stretching but will have more to do, so the worst is over!) New they are £35 plus post from Germany which takes it to over £40. LInk below. I am asking £30 including post as its as good as new [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/lenzner_darmsaite_1321.htm?sid=6823d695fa0b7112a5deb9c64e328abe"]http://www.thomann.d...5deb9c64e328abe[/url]
  11. unless you are very tall, you can leave the endpin out on a Hercules stand too (I do) [attachment=149674:DS590.jpg]
  12. Thats an excellent price. Unfortunately the pre-Xmas run-up is freezing up an already-slow market for quality basses. However, have a bump on me and GLWTS!
  13. Did you say you passed it, Jack? My commiserations, it must have been painful
  14. Yep, Nige he is a bit good and it did remind me of Eric Johnson (is it 'Cliffs of Dover'?)
  15. I think BC'er Jigster has one of these. See here from a gig with his band Those Among Us Are Wolves (very good post-rock band, check them out) [attachment=149637:1075500_506387976096036_259004422_o.jpg]
  16. On hold for a few more days while the BC'er who viewed the bass today makes some arrangements
  17. On hold, pending a viewing tomorrow
  18. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1385825757' post='2292597'] What exactly is "Halloween" about it? [/quote] IIRC there's something on the interweb about it being special as it was made on Halloween day some years back. Would add a link, but can't be @rsed
  19. ... that was fleetingly on sale on BassChat a week back has appeared at the Bass Gallery for an uber-rich £9,900 Bass Gallery say they will price match though, so I might ask them to match the price of Squier 60s P http://www.thebassgallery.com/product_details.cfm?ID=2741&type=Bass%20Guitar
  20. Etienne bought a double bass pickup from me. Couldn't have been an easier, more pleasant deal! Recommended ATB Clarky
  21. [quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1384946862' post='2282561'] Clarky [/quote] Oi! Boris I can take. Judy Finnegan I will tolerate. But Mike Mansfield is below the belt
  22. Whilst waiting for the Anima G, I have put on a Lenzner gut G. Actually sounds really nice and is a good match tension-wise. Only issue is it has imperfections (tiny bumps where twisted) along the length which means it doesn't sound cleanly at various points. However, its a pretty good stand-in
  23. On hold until this evening (while tinyd aka Dave) measures the bridge on his DB. If the size is wrong for his bridge, then you're next in line Steve
