[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1509374241' post='3398397'] And yet we see oodles of posts drooling over the visual appeal of such-and-such a bass..! 'Wow; that's gorgeous..!' 'Great finish..!' 'Such luscious figuring on the neck..!'. One is allowed to compliment an object on its appearance, but not a person..? How about cuddly kittens..? Is that 'over the top', too..? Hmm... [/quote] Those people are Bassist(s)

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1509305984' post='3397958'] Cheers Hooch for that feedback. Well would you believe it? Within 24 hours of dannybuoy bringing this little slippery Bananana to our attention one has already appeared in the FS section - how spooky is that (probably haloween related)?! It's on for a whopping £250 second hand and current owner decided pretty quickly that he'd rather have the cash than keep the pedal, which says to me it's clearly not going to be everyone's cup of tea. (And no doubt Ped's gonna say he'll have one, if it's free(!) together with the new Ashdown Doom head - you guys seen that? It's completely gorgeous and PMT online are not only stocking, but are going to be opening a store within 30 mins of me...) Here's the test with the Bananana Rama for me - at that price is it really a much better piece of kit than the Source Audio Manta? I'm struggling to see that it is going to deliver any more [i]usable[/i] filter sounds (as opposed to wonderfully whacky wonders for solo bedroom performance ) ...anyway I've managed to pick up my first bid win ever on eBay this afternoon (which obviously means I paid too much), but with 142 sim patches to play with costing me approximately 40p each, I guess I can't complain! [/quote] Well if you don’t ask you don’t get!

Can I have one free please

Quick update with my three, don't think I've added them here... [url=https://ibb.co/cYkO0a][/url] [url=https://ibb.co/nkXaDv][/url] [url=https://ibb.co/hTGpWR][/url]

Rock, Pop, Jazz, Soul - I only use my beloved Fender Jazzys (all Standards). [/quote] Very nice Stick them up here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160340-vigier-porn/page__st__90__p__3259839__hl__vigier%20porn__fromsearch__1#entry3259839 I'll just update it with a pic of my trio

I don’t know what it is but though I love my multi fx, I can’t abide single pedals that require a wall wart. Puts me right off.

And can we see pics! There’s a Vigier porn thread somewhere

Very good sir. My Pandora stopped working yesterday so I may get the zoom too.

Haha that was awesome. Could be a really fun way of getting a laugh out of the audience I reckon.

How about putting the cabs on their side? FWIW I read somewhere that the coupling effect is actually not a 'thing' but I can't remember, and may have been the opposite. You're welcome

I like mine super low. The G string is lowest and the E a tiny bit higher to give a better slap. I play very lightly so there is no buzz, but a delicious clank when digging in. Here you can see the G and I’ve had to magnify it so much you can see the discolouration where the string hits the fret, invisible to the naked eye. The neck has to be dead straight to achieve this, which is why I like my Vigiers, but not every Vigier I’ve tried is able to do it quite so well. My little Wingbass also has a flat fingerboard because it’s got no truss rod either, the board is flat glued to the body which is a single cut shape. As a result it’s also extremely low - maybe lower, in fact... will see if I can get a pic later. [url=https://ibb.co/bza5GR][/url]

You could be trying to view the one I deleted a while ago and replaced with this new forum http://basschat.co.uk/forum/108-please-read/ You should be able to see this, logged in it not. Cheers ped

I’ve just installed another strap pin at about the 9th fret. It now balances really nicely when standing (keeping the playing area centred). The original pin at the end is great for playing seated. I attached the TC polytune temporarily in the body but think I’ll leave it, it fits so well and is really useful! [url=https://ibb.co/fffj86][/url] [url=https://ibb.co/kJPpam][/url]

[quote name='Al Krow' timestamp='1508478851' post='3392416'] Excellent - looking forward to pics and feedback. More general Q directed at the wider group - how easy is it load up sound samples to share on BC? I'm thinking of Bo0tsy, amongst others, with his very comprehensive collection of filters. [/quote] Not very easy at the moment, probably best to post them on soundcloud then link. However the new site makes it super easy so maybe wait a week or so!

Four great causes there and a superb amount raised, well done everyone.

My people can contact their people and set something up whilst I melt my hard drives
