Interestingly one does have a pocket, the other doesn’t!

Is it just an easy one off purchase for their merch or are there any strings attached?

BOOOM!!!

Ha ha ha ha! That's niiiiiiiiiiiice!!

Will look forward to checking it out, Dan!

Looking at the photo wondering whether a) you scrub up pretty well, or b) were on the way to a court hearing when the band said “Don’t forget the photo-shoot...”

The job's a good 'un.

The Room is a nicely polished work.  It has a great blend of classical strings, male and female vox and the prog ethic.  Like all sophisticated works, the first listen is a tease.  I will enjoy listening to this again and again.

Please talk me through this colour co-ordination thing.  Mrs ead keeps mentioning it too.

Ok, I like purple, green and black. Everything is purple, green and black. There ya go, done. 

Oh wait, I like Candy Apple Red too.

It occurred to me I am only talking about basses. 

You totally need to get out more. You need to come and have a beer with me!!!

I'm feeling excited at the prospect of turning up to a gig with a battered old P, but I've got a lot of work to do on some of the sounds that the band uses to fit it in. I do need that low B for a few songs though.

Ah, simplicity is a wonderful thing! Like you, lately I've had a hankering for a 4-string Stingray, which was all I played for years back in the 80's. Unfortunately I've been playing 5's for nearly three decades now, and all the 4's I've picked up over that period (for mainly nostalgic reasons - although I've never had another a Stingray 4, oddly enough) I've moved on again fairly quickly because I missed the low B, or 'the thumb rest' as I call it, too much. It's all in my head, I'm sure of it...

I'll be running through my gig sets hopefully next week if I have a chance. The worst case I thinks that I'll need to punch in an Octave pedal when I want those low notes. I could even try out a -5 semitones on a pedal to get the "low B string" (100% wet effect) - which won't sound the same but for the odd part of a song it might work.. but that P bass though... yum!

Agreed. It was such a wonderful surprise today - that thing I didn't know I wanted but now I'm so happy that it's here. I may actually be irrationally happy about this.

I'd like to be able to toggle them, personally. I think they look messy in the mobile view.

You can - button top right

I love a good impulse buy...my bank account doesn't always.

As HKH says.."pictures?"

I never put any ad on the social media. 🤣

Pics?!

Hey no problem @JapanAxe! I'm just trying to spread the bass love! Would be good to share as I am hoping these reviews offer a great resource. Just want people to know about them!! 

What a trooper!

I'm going to see what I can do about making it easier for everyone to access the reviews (and of course know about them) - I just haven't figured out how yet as my mind has been elsewhere for a while. Maybe a decent signature?

I put a PJ set into my Hamer.  Yup, they're great pickups, but they're even better if you dispense with the EMG pots that come as part of the installation kit.

What didn't you like about them? - CTS or Alpha instead then @NancyJohnson? 

I think it was the taper, the pots didn't do the pickups justice.  I eventually pulled the passive circuit and put a John East unit...then it really came alive.

Why has nobody adapted this design so that our PJH pickups can be varied in a similar way?

Dragon's Den here we come.

@eadThank you! I would LOVE to hear it - especially as you also have EMGs on board which will be what I go for. I may choose J pickups, but now I have seen EMG P's in situ, I am intrigued!

Ok, I'll do my best but please note in advance that my playing is not of the same quality as yours!

I can confirm it it's not me

Actually, I was able to look up on my emails where it went originally- and yes it did go to a fine basschatter!

My Pro 6 went to a BCer too... or at least he was at one time... hasn't been here since 06/10/2013.

Also curious...

What object of desire would tempt the man who gets to review all that kind of kit at work?

The rather lovely 76 P bass on the Wunjo website. It was a Natural w/Rosewood. Lovely!

Ooooh. Heartbreaking. Been there. Felt that!

Just spotted the post in 'General'. 

Interesting times. Wonder how many fanbois will accuse DG of selling out?

Will Korg keep Darkglass going, or close it down in favour of one of their own existing brands?

Not me

It seems the problem has righted itself, though strangely all one million of my post attempts have suddenly appeared making me look like a complete n00b of the interwebz.

The site is a bit laggy in places.  I've noticed it takes several seconds to load all of the components on a full web page.  Are you on a full screen or a mobile Dan?

There seems to be a back-up cache on the BC side of things that holds the user's draft text in case of a client disconnect.  In areas of the forum that require a log in it can be problematic trying to retrieve it but it is usually saved there until the text is officially posted by the user.  I can't be arsed to troubleshoot or report it.  I'd guess that your submissions were stuck in that cache for some reason.

Nice as the upgrade was, I think mobile users got more from it than users on full sized displays.

where was it?

Hit me up with a price if you do Dood...

PM'd you Kev

Advertised in the marketplace!

ooooh 

Good luck with that - hope they are more popular than the one I listed (now where's that tumbleweed emoji...)

I hope I have set the prices low enough to sell. They've been safely stowed in my cupboard not getting used, so they should really go for a bargain.

That man had a BIG screen presence.

He'll be missed.

Poor Mini-Me, seems like he suffered a lot with depression and substance issues.

I'd say 3

V3. It is then!  Either way, you’ve done an amazing job, all!

Starting to look like a 'no' mate  

YouTube had a few offerings, I’ll guess that will have to do for now!

so many likes

I was quite excited when I had the message, rumour has it EBS only made 50 of them

How was it?

I did wonder if I was going to be able to get HX to deal with the complex chains in my LT, but I spent a lot fo time cutting them down, maybe doing away with some of the parallel loops. Through IEMs and FOH I don't think anyone else noticed the slightest difference between the two! Ok, so it took ages to sort out, but I am confident that for this current gig I won't need LT. I also managed to rock up to the gig with just two basses, my stands and one case! I'm really impressed, I think it's staying.

Luv ya big guy!

I second that emotion 👏

congrats on the new job

Thank you @BillyBass!! Loving it!

Hey Dood

Are you really 103 years of age?? You look good...

Birthday 06/01/1918

The last 3 years have aged me considerably, it's only these last few months I feel I've started getting younger again. Long story! ") - Thank you for the PM

Talk about timing, Installing a 3 Band into my Charvel San Dimas IV an all! 

Oh nice!

As my bass originally had one large hole for a three way switch, rather than fill the hole I'm going to replace the blend knob on my Glockenklang with a three way switch again. I'd prefer the blend, but that hole is a bit big! Switch should be arriving today, finger's crossed!

What have I missed? 😂

What scale length is the kidney?
