  1. Aye, I sent the link with the whole thread so the editors can pick what they like best. Cheers ped
  2. Really sorry for any confusion. I had the eCommerce site all ready to go but for a whole week (and still now) the login page won't load. I thought best to avoid it in case it went tits up again. It didn't occur to me that people may have bookmarked the old thread, so apologies for that, too. Not that I am making excuses but it really was a mammoth task sorting it all out from beginning to end and now sorting out the one or two exchanges for different sizes etc. A pre-order thing may work well but I will have to find time to organise it all again soon. Last week was one of the worst in recent memory for me and although the sales went off without a hitch (well one tiny one) I think I need a little time to take a break from 'work' (in terms of Basschat) for a few days. Cheers all ped

  4. Quick question for those who took these pics and to those IN the pics - does anyone mind if some of these are used in BGM in the next issue? I'll try and find out what happens regarding copyright and so on, but I didn't want to just let the editor choose from these pics without your permission. Also if you are in one of the pics and maybe you told the wife you were at work/doing DIY or whatever and you would prefer not to appear in the mag, please also let me know. Cheers ped
  5. Beautiful. What sort of price range are we looking at? If I could have another fretted+fretless pair I would be extremely interested in this and the fretless LeFay for sale on BC. Such a sexy looking bass, this. Any more pics for me to look at? Cheers ped

    My collection!

    Cheers Gary, very kind. This bass is wasted in my hands. But I'll never lose it!!! ped Oh and I always play in D - I like the lower tension and the extra notes. I also find it more comfortable octave shape wise. With my pathetically light womanly touch on the strings it also means that the lower tension responds to variations in touch more than a higher tension string. I can get a real 'digging in' sound by playing a tiny bit harder than normal.
  7. Sensual. Looks like a winner - get it polished though!! I spent a relaxing 30 mins polishing mine the other day (probably about the best part of my week) and now it's like a mirror again!! What strings do you like on the bass? I have tried several, and after settling firmly on Elixir's on the fretted, NOTHING works as well as marleaux strings on the fretless. Maybe because that's what I used at the beginning and so I'm used to them, but they just resonate really nicely with the feel of the bass and are somehow more tactile than the others I have tried. Obviously no need to use flats on these necks! Cheers ped P.s I think we all need to see some proper decent large pics of your 80s and 00's Arpege basses together. I will do a matching one of my twins in reply!
  8. I think I have only ever played one OW bass and that was a long time ago... actually no I played a 36" fretless recently... lovely craftsmanship. ped
  9. PM sent, cheers ped
  10. You can use it with anything with a 13 pin input - Axon, Roland etc etc. TBH I am not really an expert, but have a look here which might help: [url="http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php"]http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php[/url] All I know is that with the Vbass it sounds incredible. I think with other devices where the pitch is converted to MIDI there may be some latency. ped
  11. [quote name='gazgoldstar' post='635242' date='Oct 24 2009, 11:41 AM']Perfect match for my Mesa Boogie 1615be cab I have for sale. I used them together for a long while. See my ad on this site for more details.[/quote] Yep - that's what I used with it!
  12. Cheers Jase Here are some pics of these delightful cases: As you can see, this one has a small square cut into the foam at the back of the case, it's only a cm or do deep and doesn't affect the protection of the case one bit. the other doesn't have this. They also have 'Vigier' logos on and white masking tape labelled 'fretted' and 'fretless' - all of which can be removed. Both are almost as new (little dusty) and still have their tags and silica gel, though I can't find the straps for them at the moment (but tbh they aren't much good on yer' back) ped
  13. Now surplus to requirements since I have the internal installation instead. Yours for £55 posted Pretty good nick, complete with clamp. Installed on a bass:
  14. Oh I can believe it!
  15. Cool clip.
  16. [quote name='silddx' post='640547' date='Oct 29 2009, 10:14 PM']In the WH Smiths in Ealing Broadway and in Westfield (the largest shopping centre in Europe I might add) they are still carrying last months with no sign of the latest issue.[/quote] Depends on what you are including in the measurable area, son - the Metro Centre in Tyneside is the biggest in terms of lettable square footage. Westfield is the biggest 'City Centre' mall but when stacked up against out of town developments it isn't as big (third largest at the mo I think) L8z ped
  17. OK I have to go post these now, so the T's are NO LONGER FOR SALE but there will be some at BASS DAY and possibly the next bash. Cheers ped
  18. Black/grey LS s 5 m 0 l 2 xl 1 xxl 0 Orange/black s 3 m 3 l 6 xl 7 xxl 0 ped
  19. Quick bump - only selling these for 2 more hours so I can get them posted off. Any I have left will be kept for Bass Day ped
  20. [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/rockcase_rc20805b.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/rockcase_rc20805b.htm[/url] I have two of these for sale. Both have had the outer pocket removed so they are smooth each side (you can't see the pocket in the pic above but it looked like this: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/rockcase_rc_20905b_bass_soft_light.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/rockcase_rc_20905..._soft_light.htm[/url] because it made sliding them in/out of the car a pain I can't post them, so how about £25 collected each? I will put pics and details of mine up this evening, maybe tomorrow. Cheers ped
  21. Update on numbers: Black/grey LS s 5 m 0 l 2 xl 2 xxl 1 Orange/black s 3 m 3 l 6 xl 7 xxl 2 Depending on how quickly these sell I MIGHT keep some to take to Bass day and sell on the day, but we'll see. I'll see where we are tomorrow lunchtime. Cheers ped
  22. Sweet job. Sounds great. ped
  23. Should look good with your T shirt!
  24. What was that little baby SVT rig like?? They have one at PMT in Oxford and it just looks so cuddly
