    4.1kg thanks. Which is light for a 5 string Fender !!

    Here you go!

    Much loved and used genuine US Marcus Miller 5 string from 2011. Very rare in black. Lovely maple neck with block inlays. Strung with Elixirs. Looks great on stage as you can see from the main photo but there are plenty of knocks & scratches which I’ve tried to photo. Electronics all original but I didn’t like the mismatching controls so it’s sporting all Black jazz ones. I’ve got the orginals and the chrome pickup cover. Happy to supply with either a genuine Fender road-worn hard case or a relatively new Thomann hard case. Only selling this and a Precision to make way for new Spector.

    Love this !! - brilliant !

    Thanks - that sounds like a really interesting role. Hope the automation doesn’t cut you out! The stuff that basschatters do never ceases to amaze me! ………so back to the original question, do we know who the actual bassist is (assuming it’s not programmed) or is it a whole variety of players?

    @LeftyP love what you did there! Must have been an labour of love (scuse the pun!!) Our “cafe church” event went pretty well. Most challenging for me was “a Christmas Overture” for which the words were adapted to fit our theme. There are some bass “stabs” with quite tricky timing (for me!) but I got there eventually. The original song is here: Sounded great in the room but lousy on livestream!!

    Well to answer your question @Stu-khag I’m not sure which episode as the Mrs deletes them after watching!! That said, my point was a general one about the nature of the bass bits - and they come in at odd points throughout each episode - I wasn’t thinking of the theme tune. So do you work/contract for the BBC then?!
  8. Risk101
    Me too - if I wasn’t already over my “quota” I’d be all over this!!

    So having been stuck at home during Covid, me and the Mrs got hooked on “Bargain Hunt” and it’s now on permanent “record”. What’s this got to do with basses I hear you ask?! Well has anyone else noticed the well executed and quite funky sometimes, bass riffs during the programme? I could swear whoever writes it is a bassist! Does anyone know who’s involved?!!! from a sad BH addict! (Well it’s cheaper than GAS!)

    I’m in the market for a Spector 5 string. Any chance of some better pics and more info re the spec, pickups, weight etc? cheers

    Anyone remember the techno disco “Show me Love” by Robin S. Well here is a cover by the very talented Charlie Moreno (track is his band “Powafunk”) His bass lines a super creative and quite difficult (for me!!) to replicate!

    Sorry to hear this Trevor, and hopefully you’ll find a new “home” where you can use your talents. First time I’ve posted on here but I’ve enjoyed reading your contributions. I’m the main bassist at a large church in Essex. It’s a full band, and I usually play a 5 string Fender PJ or JJ although with the curse of GAS have used loads of different basses over the years!! Signal goes into TC Electronic Staccato head with post-EQ D/I and although using IEM I like to also hear the low end via a Vanderkley cab. We control our own in ear mix via “Visi Listen” and use OnSong but I’m nowadays only using it for the occasional prompt. The stuff goes out on livestream with mixed results!

    Yes, someone please make it go away 😂

    Wow - great video, great band I've never heard of, and great bass playing GLWTS!
  15. Risk101
    That is a stunning finish and a lovely example of these basses. GLWTS 👍🏻

    Lovely 2016 USA Professional 5 string Precision bass in the relatively rare black/black/maple colour combination. The original Fender P Pickup has been replaced (included in the case) with a Seymour Duncan "Quarter Pounder". The bass has also had a SD Musicman Stingray Ceramic pickup professionally fitted in the bridge position making it a versatile instrument if you want more than the classic “P” sound (which it does brilliantly) The controls are volume/volume/tone. Bass is completely passive, so no battery worries in gigs!! Bass weighs in at a comfy 4.2kg on my scales, which is good for a 5 string Fender as many of you will know. Comes with original moulded hard-shell case and all the case candy including keys, truss rod tool, allen keys and info sheets. Collection from Essex or London or will arrange insured courier to you.

    Please make it stop!!! You’re killing me with these lovely 5ers!! 😂
  18. Risk101
    Me neither - it most certainly is orange! 😂 GLWTS
  19. Risk101
    Great basses these and excellent value for money imo. GLWTS 👍🏻
  20. Risk101
    Really lovely bass - don’t suppose you have another one with 5 strings 😂😂 GLWTS
  21. Risk101
    Ooh very nice, and as you say a pretty rare instrument. Just love the aged look neck and the block inlays. The mod sounds nice compared to the “boost only” EQ of the original. GLWTS
  22. Risk101
    Wow lovely bass - shame for me not 5 string! 😂 Great seller too - GLWTS
  23. Risk101
    Lovely bass this - surprised it’s still here. Have a bump on me!
  24. Risk101
    Lovely bass. Bet it sounds fab! GLWTS
  25. Risk101
    That chip will touch in and become almost invisible with some black guitar paint. Lovely bass - if I didn’t have a 5 string P with an MM pickup on the way! GLWTS
