  1. Black Vantera
  2. Jay, out of the case its a standard rackmount size (see bottom line):
  3. Adrian bought a rather marvellous archtop Takamine TB-10 bass from me and trusted me to hand over to a pal of his for transport up to the Lake District from London. Top guy. Enjoy!!!
  4. +1 to this suggestion. I have seen a ton of jazz bassists use MarkBass gear (eg, back line at the Jazz Cafe) and for trio/quartets this combo is very popular. Good with DB (use a preamp in front for impedance matching and feedback control) and for electric bass.
  5. In the spirit of being helpful, all the specs for this lovely bass are on this link which confirms 1.625" nut width https://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-dept/bass-guitars/precision-bass/fender-75th-anniversary-commemorative-precision-bass-2-colour-bourbon-burst
  6. This always stays with me as utterly beautiful. Wistful vocals and Danny Thompson as super DB support. And if you don't like it, each to their own!
  7. I would not buy a bass from this man, even though he can guarantee there is no buckle rash
  8. I wonder if long, luxuriant back hair counts? Note: for the avoidance of doubt, I would also fail on this count, thankfully
  9. ... but are you "willing to dress up a little bit crazy and move around on stage to contribute to exciting performances"?
  10. https://www.gumtree.com/p/other-musicians-wanted/bass-player-bassist-with-long-hair-and-rock-image-wanted-by-rock-band/1407477985 Sorry @Happy Jack
  11. Btw: after yet another price rise, the latest model 4003FG (which incidentally has an unlaquered fretboard) retails at £2,749 at Rickysounds and GuitarGuitar ... so this is a grand saving on new! https://www.rickysounds.co.uk/product/rickenbacker-4003-fireglo-2021-model-available-for-immediate-delivery/
  12. The OP last visited BassChat on April 2nd, according to his profile page. I would try sending him a PM as that might go through to his email address.
  13. FYI, this would be the bigger brother (280W) https://www.stonehamamps.co.uk/product/yi200-head/
  14. Like a Slipknot song without the catchy (non Cookie Monster) chorus
  15. I am potentially in, although I am waiting on Handbox ....
  16. 6. Too many amps (aka "you look too loud")
  17. Unexpected house expenditures necessitate one more in my sequence of bass sales in 2022 - in this case my 2019 fireglo 4003 beauty, which weighs a more than acceptable 9.0 pounds (4.08kg). Plays very slickly with 40-100 DR Pure Blues strings recently installed. Comes with Rick hard case in good used condition. A few minor knocks visible in pics (tip of headstock; rear underside edge; and small [2cm ish] patch of buckle rash, not through the wood) but none visible except very close up. Collection from SW13 London (south of Hammersmith Bridge) or delivery at cost (around £30 and probably UPS?) Sale only. No trades. Also, sorry to our EU brethren (I didn't vote for B...t), its a UK sale only.
  18. Bought a nice DB pickup from Chris. Top chap!
  19. I once bought a bass (there's a thing!) that had identical looking strings on and I was told they were Blue Steels.
  20. Or maybe just bypass your LM3's preamp and use a tube preamp pedal into the fx circuit, such as this (no affiliation BTW)? Cheaper option for sure
  21. Update: StringsDirect can't do single LTFs but put me in touch with La Bella in US. They will send at no cost for the string, other than the $20 shipping and handling charge (which sounds a bit rich for a small package!) Anyhow, thanks all, hopefully my over-zealous string trimming will soon be rectified
