I'm still curious if anyone has any experience with this slim double bass, as I would imagine it would be less loud for practice at home, but good enough when amplified at gigs? [Quote]is this 'slim' instrument just designed for amplified playing, with little chance of a decent acoustic sound? Seems obvious really, and I don't want to limit myself to getting used to an unsually shaped bass. But still, the price is alright! http://www.thomann.d...ss_europe_1.htm[/quote]

I feel this is appropriate here.

In - MXR m82 bef - Verellen meatsmoke preamp - MXR m87 bc - out Verellen rec out to tuner. The comp is last in the chain because the envelope filter and preamp are sensitive to attack. Effect-GAS free \0/

My life without Donald Fagan would be drastically identical.

Latest and greatest! It Will stay like this until something dies. (Yeah yeah, I know) [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hehc2bb.jpg[/IMG] The Verellen could take out the Deathstar's evil stepmother!

[url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/dunlop_straplok_ergo_lok.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/dunlop_straplok_ergo_lok.htm[/url] Really cheap, non-permanent so don't muck up the spec of the bass (or guitar). I bought a dozed or so sets aaaaages ago. [/quote] 4 euro and still no beer?!

3quid WITHOUT beer? Pfah!

Schaller or Grolsch-loks. Had a Ernie Ball lok break without cause, dinged the trans-teal MM. Bastards!

Some ideas to kick around: Hohner/steinberger headless Fender aerodyne Routing chambers in your P body maybe replace the neck with carbon Kala Ubass

Its such a shame music isn't produced as intricately as it can be, really takes the fun out of all that wondrous technology!

Engl rackhead 1060?

Rapidly growing gas for a rockabilly upright. Nowhere to put it!

The low B (A on mine really) is great now that I have found good strings. .125 was too thin to work with the scale length imo, 130 does good but my preference is 135. The G being close to the edge took me a wek to get used to, SR5 allows a very low action and a light touch and any bends and trems can be trained upwards. If this is a problem for some players, replacing the nut fixes 90% of that 'issue'. The smaller spacing at the bridge was a real eye opener, so much so I'm replacing the bridge on my MTD kingston (single H) with a 17.5mm bridge. Mine is all maple, couldn't tell the difference with rosewood with my eyes closed. Flipping the series/parallel switch makes more of a difference.

I use Elacin ER15 and have the monitors for it. Not cheap but very effective. Now I just need a wireless unit to replace the cable, which is as short as money is at the moment :/ http://www.elacin.com/be/en/elacin-music

[quote name='Mark Dyer' timestamp='1392386665' post='2368031'] I have no particular place in the house in which I store my guitars and I'm a bugger for coming in from rehearsal or gigs and propping the case against a wall, behind the sofa, next to my desk, etc... This winds the GF up no end and I'm continually being told to tidy them away, but until she stops referring to individual instruments as the blue one, the brown one, the shiny one, (I know, annoying isn't it?) instead of their proper names, I will continue to scatter them about the household. It's only a matter of time before I come home to a bonfire in the back garden with my Fender Jazz in flames, but I'll deal with that when it happens... [/quote] Maybe give them more appropriate names than Slutmagnet and DeependDominator.

What hangers are you using? [/b][/size][/color][/b] [color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=3] [/size][/font][/color] K&M 16295. The one holding the hollowbody at the end there is the same with deeper brackets. They have a different version also with nitrolaquer-safe padding.

My wife's idea: nicely displayed, safe from the kids and easy for me to pick one up whenever inspiration strikes.

One two dip!

Last time I ordered 200 with print on two sides I payed import tax, nearly a tenner I think. Net cost was € 0.36 a piece iirc. Grippy big .88 triangles, they last thrice as long
