Hi All,
After a 20+ year break from playing, I found my old Vox Whiteshadow M Series bass. I started to pick it up in the evenings and plunder away on the strings obviously realising how much I had missed it. So since them I have been on a bit of a buying frenzy as well as putting in a little practice each night. I have a couple of questions I would love some advice on.
1) Does any one know a good bass technician in the Southampton/Winchester area ?
2) Can any one give me a little advice on EQ settings for my latest acquisition, an Overwater Aspiration Ltd Edition courtesy of Drew from Manchester Bass Lounge, a great guy to do business with. I am into all sorts of music, originally NWBM (New Wave British Metal) moving on to Thrash, Grunge, Punk, Prog Rock (thats when I was getting a little older), Blues (When I thought I could be a proper musician) and these days I even have Hip Hop, Funk and Jazz in the collection. So far I have found that the Overwater EQ is extremely sensitive to say the least (I am used to playing everything at 11)..
so what does the collection look like

And for those who noticed the amps in the back
I have a Laney AOR 30 Valve Combo - (Circa 1987), a Tech 21 trademark 10 (for the six string only) and the Roland Bass Cube 20XL ..
Finally if I have broken any rules or etiquette, do let me know !!
I look forward to becoming an active member of the community.
Cheers
