[quote name='TPJ' post='1219239' date='May 3 2011, 09:55 PM']What about the QSC K10 things? Two way speaker and integrated 1000 watt class D amp with dual inputs. Just plug in your Fishman and you're off.[/quote] Interesting idea for which thanks but I already have the cab (a Barefaced Midget T) on order! Plus I was hoping for a cheeky low price for a second hand amp whereas the K10 is closevto £700.

I fancy trying this with a Fishman as an ultra-portable DB amplification combination. The reviews sound good and its a shame that its (a) discontinued and (b ) only available in one retailer (Station Music in Germany) for a staggering circa Euros 1,000!

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='1218252' date='May 3 2011, 01:34 AM'] thought I'd agreed first option on it.[/quote] PM'd you and Wes to sort this out

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='1217999' date='May 2 2011, 08:15 PM']Eh? where?[/quote]

Where do you start? Nice "starburst" finish

[quote name='lozbass' post='1217626' date='May 2 2011, 03:09 PM']Very cool indeed Clarky - I've been getting excited about the CS 2011 P/J hybrid but yours is the real deal. Looks like nitro to me too[/quote] Thanks Loz, I am so smitten anew with this bass that I have decided (for the second time!) to sell my other fretless, my Wal (which is leagues ahead of the Fender in craftsmanship and sonic options but is not so "me" [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=133369&pid=1217532&st=0&#entry1217532)"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...;#entry1217532)[/url]

[quote name='hillbilly deluxe' post='1217468' date='May 2 2011, 12:55 PM']Again. Is this nitro or poly ?[/quote] Thanks! I assume its poly as I thought they had phased out nitro by 1971? Although it does have a patina and wear patterns that look very nitro-ish.

[quote name='hillbilly deluxe' post='1217442' date='May 2 2011, 12:37 PM']Fixed.ish[/quote] Thats 90 degrees the other way ... but thanks for trying matey, it looks better this way than in my pic

I got this bass a few months back from Beedster (who else?) and it had previously been owned by Shaggy and BassBod. Although I loved the mojo'd looks, I didn't bond with it fully for some time as I kept using the wrong strings on it (too light gauge) and couldn't get the playability right. Recently I shifted to heavier gauge La Bellas and it became a whole new bass for me. I swapped for some Rotosound TruBass for a recording session I did on Saturday (as I needed a DB type vibe) and I've found it hard to put down ever since. Anyway, I had just laid it down on the sofa in our kitchen (which Mrs C has adorned in all manner of bright velvet-y cushions) and it was just crying out for a porn shot! So here it is (edit: for some reason the attachment function has rotated the photo 90 degrees anticlock-wise, but just cock your head to one side and you'll get the picture!)

[quote name='EssentialTension' post='1217213' date='May 2 2011, 09:21 AM']It's only like tuning down to C# and then not playing below the third fret.[/quote] But I rarely play [i]above[/i] the third fret

[quote name='EssentialTension' post='1217205' date='May 2 2011, 09:12 AM'] [/quote] Thats the first time I've heard a RA Mouse and I have to say it sounds wonderful. Not sure I could cope with a 30" scale length though

Its pickup only from Manchester and cash on delivery (so no Paypal protection). I presume thats why limited interest so far
