Stingray over the years…what to know before buying?
ped replied to Thunderpaws's topic in Bass Guitars
This is a great resource and a good place to start! http://www.musicmanbass.global -
Notifications, basically.

It's not quite a fully fledged app but it works quite well in it's current version.

Thanks guys. I must say it's been fantastic becoming the resident Vigier expert and getting to know these amazing instruments so well. I have just reduced the price, now I'm minded to sell I want a new home for it soon. Buyer has to give me first dibs when/if they decide to sell! Also, added a sound clip - I'm sure I have more somewhere.

Yeah I was going to suggest it might be preferable for them if people come and try them rather than buy online. Distance selling regs and judging value based on minute indicators must make it quite difficult to sell something like that online.

Great, I’ve realised why badges in the app don’t work - they’re not supported yet. Hopefully things will develop over the next few updates.
-
I honestly don’t know why The Bass Gallery put so little effort into their descriptions. Massively lets them down imo especially as buying from a shop like that should mean a reliable source of expert information as opposed to some waster saying ’L@@k VINTAGE LAWSUIT’ on eBay

Warm Audio RingerBringer - Moogerfooger MF-102 ring modulator clone
ped replied to Quatschmacher's topic in Effects
Didn't the original Moogerfooger pedals have terrible bypasses? -

Try it now chaps. You might need to delete the ‘app’ and add it again.

The best Jazz Bass (70s spacing) that money can buy IMO! Flawless craftsmanship with stunning attention to detail, such as the asymmetrical heel and horns. The sound is pure 70s jazz heaven, with the legendary Greengrove preamp (two band) with internal dip switching for adjusting frequency centres. It comes with the original Celinder Hiscox case. Weight is 9.1lbs. Collection from York, but I'll travel a fair distance to meet. You can hear it here: ..and here: Pics:

This was my favourite bass for sooo long. Feels really strange to be selling it but I'm just not playing it now and I guess my tastes have changed. It makes me sad to see it in its case not being used. I have had five Vigier basses and this one slayed them all, including basses by many other top marques during it's reign. The action is super low, the neck dead flat, the sound is often described as like a 'velvet covered brick' It was originally bought as a pickup/preamp-less 'chassis' which was later filled with Basstec pickups and a Marleaux 3 band pre. The Roland GK system with up/down buttons was added some years later and works flawlessly - I used to use it with the Vbass and later the VB99 system for some outstanding synth sounds, including polyphonic effects which to my mind still haven't been matched by anything Roland or anyone else have done since. Being a carbon neck thru with no truss rod it's also extremely light, my scales showing 7.lbs Please ask if you have any questions. I prefer not to post, but will meet a fair distance away. The original case is also in excellent condition and quite rare. Cheers ped The controls - the two small knobs at the back are treble and bass, the next down from that is mids, the next is a GK assignable control, then the one near the bridge pickup is pan then the one near the neck pickup is vol. The two buttons are GK assignable for example patch up/down or to turn effects on and off.

Adding a bridge pickup for a short scale?
ped replied to DF Shortscale's topic in Repairs and Technical
I say go for it. I recently bought a 66 Mustang which had already been modified, so I asked the fantastic @Andyjr1515 to change the pickups and straighten things up for me. Full thread here https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/471651-modding-a-66-mustang-really-really/#comment-4854101 There are lots of options for bridge pickups, and on a Musicmaster you have quite a bit more space to play with to position the pickup. Because the mustang has such a bit bridge and because I wanted to use the existing hole I butted mine right up to the backplate, which gives approximately 70s spacing (taking the shorter scale into account). Blended, it sounds superb and the bridge pickup on it's own is really loud and 'parpy' You can hear it here, sorry for the shite playing. Mostly neck at the start, blended from 1:00 and bridge at 2:00 -
It works quite well but I can't get the 'badge' notifications to work any more. I'll keep messing with it.
-
That's right, cheers - it's not perfect, more of an experimental feature I think at this stage
-
Did them on Mustangs too if that counts (1966 maybe 67 too)
