[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1332967968' post='1595745'] Nice one Clarky, I'm going to try and get to the 93 Feet East gig now the East London Line is running! [/quote] Thanks Mark, hope to see you then. Curry on the menu too, given the venue!

Which BC Member's Bands do you want to see, and have seen?
Clarky replied to xilddx's topic in General Discussion
I have seen Case Hardin, Dick Venom, Jetsonics and (the end of the set of) the Junkyard Dogs. All very entertaining in their different ways and genres. I would like to see loads of BCers bands but Dressed to Kill tops my list for sheer fun value \m/ -
I bought this off BC'er eubassix only a couple of weeks ago but its not for me. I bought it as a London transport-friendly combo for my DB and acoustic bass but - while it fits the size criterion nicely - I am not 100% on the tone (a bit chorus-y for me). Jazzers use to love these and the reviews on the web are great (eg, [url="http://www.harmonycentral.com/products/92612"]http://www.harmonyce.../products/92612[/url]) £[s]275 [/s]£250 plus post please (I paid David/eubassix £300 plus post) Here's a pic of one very similar (but rather more battered than mine): [attachment=103595:167.jpg] Manual: [url="http://www.gallien-krueger.com/manuals/200mb.pdf"]http://www.gallien-k...nuals/200mb.pdf[/url] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=6][font=Times New Roman][size=6]200MB Specifications[/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Max Input Level [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]9v rms[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Sensitivity (400hz) [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Power [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]100w@4ohms[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Effects Send [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]750mv rms into 22k for full power[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Effects Return [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]750mv rms into 12k for full power[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Extension Speakers [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]200MB 8 ohms with internal speaker[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]on 4 ohms with internal speaker off[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]200MB[/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Weight [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]24lbs.[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [left][b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Dimensions [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]13.75'' x 15'' x 3.5''[/size][/font][/size][/font][/left] [b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]Speakers [/size][/font][/size][/font][/b][font=Times New Roman][size=2][font=Times New Roman][size=2]1x12'' [/size][/font][/size][/font]

Reviving this FS thread. My excellent condition Acoustic Image Clarus+ - around a year or so old - up FS. 800W at 4 ohms, twin channel (so can run mic and piezo). New price was £995. Will do for £675. Nothing better for DB but I don't need all its functionality, especially as my new gig is with my Takamine acoustic bass, not my DBs. Comes with padded gigbag.

Pre-CBS Fender P Bass...How much do they sell for?
Clarky replied to PauBass's topic in Bass Guitars
If it helps, I paid a shade over £3k for my year-of-birth '63 Precision. An all-original would have been in the £4.5-5k range when I was looking. Si Clifton (BC'er 0353203 http://basschat.co.uk/user/8856-0353203/) is your man on sourcing pre-CBS Precsions from his network of dealer mates in the US. He sourced Happy Jack's 1957 and 1965 (?) Precisions and my '63 and is a thoroughly decent guy -
-
They seemed very pleased - and especially chuffed that I managed the gig despite jetlag! Their FB page mentions the "excellent new bassist"

Calling Wal experts - getting a fretted neck for a fretless?
Clarky replied to Clarky's topic in Bass Guitars
I also heard back from Paul this week and was told the build time for a fretted neck would be 19 months Yes you read that right - 19 MONTHS! -

I'm not bad but the other guy was amazing - he is the Glyndebourne official young composer for two years and has recently been hired by the Sydney Opera House in Australia ... which is why the bass playing role came up for grabs Edit: yep, 34"

[quote name='sprocket123' timestamp='1332635377' post='1591103'] The sound must be special right [/quote] Very DB-like but with more underlying 'beef' for want of a better word. A sound engineer who knew the band said afterwards that it sounded better than the the previous bassist's double bass (and he was a lot better player than me)
