[quote name='budget bassist' post='183194' date='Apr 22 2008, 09:09 PM']Really? must have been quick because i'm always looking at their for sale section.[/quote] yes was quick, seller was bdgotoh, he was selling the Copperhead Bronze Sterling single H and a Desert Gold Sterling H at the same time,both had rosewood boards,the CB was sold within hours and the DG one not long after. I remember it as its the only Sterling I think I've ever seen in the bronze with the copper pickguard

Up for trade is this 2002 white sparkle Sterling with rosewood board and abalone scratchplate (also spare black one). pretty much flawless condition (apart from some scratches on the guard). No fretwear,or grime on the neck,been well babied. fairly low action,no issues whatsoever. I should also point out its also a lot more sparkly under lighting than these pics suggest. When I got the bass it didnt have a MM case, It does now though and also I just bought the abalone plate a few weeks ago been a few years since MusicMan offered the sparkle finishes (apart from the blue dawn LE07). If you're after one,you'll have a hard job finding one in better condition. I wanted one of these so bad for so long but now I've had it 6 months,been there,done that,fancy something new you may have seen it on these boards before with a maple neck. that was off the CAR Sterling which I recently just traded with eubassix. this one pictured is the original neck trade wise looking for a Bongo,Lakland DJ or 44-02,maybe a MIA S1 Jazz or Warwick,others considered too - soft spot for G&L in particular - cash either way depending on what you got. In the unlikely event you want to trade a 5 string version of the above (apart from the fender - sry their Am.Std 5s have a rubbish B string) then I'd be more into that may offer the Sterling up for sale if I dont get the any or the right trade offers

And then there were 2 (well, for a little while)
dub_junkie replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in Gear Gallery
they're both very nice. and I happen to like the burgandy mist colour on the Jazz. beats 3TS imo which is just sooo boring looking. all those fender colours were pretty cool like sonic blue,fiesta red,surf green, this one etc -
My Godlyke Disciple 5 - hand made in Japan,satin finish ash body with SGC MM+J pups and 18v circuit. she arrived with me from Eubassix a couple of weeks ago. I've lowered the action a tad and its a peach of a player with a really nice and varied set of tones next is the Spector Euro 5 - the best price v capability ratio bass I've yet come across. I may swap out the tonepump for a preamp with mid control at a later date but otherwise I'm really happy with this bass.

[quote name='kennyrodg' post='179263' date='Apr 17 2008, 08:55 PM']im no expert on the multitude of different basses however.... i got a sterling hs at xmas and im chuffed to bits with it.it has a 5 way switch and 3 band eq.you can dial in pretty much any tone you could wish for.the neck is nice and slim as the others have said but compared tonally to my jazz this things on steroids. ive never played a stingray so ive nothing to offer there but the sterling hs does have a wonderfull voice. heres a wee piccie,aint she cuuuuute. [/quote] thats lovely that is. nice looking bit of ash. how are they wired,are both p/ups series or parallel? cheers

if not black/maple then white/maple - both are great but for me olympic white/maple makes for a great looking Jazz bass just a teensy bit nore than the black.

Jools Holland being live and Estelle's bassist with mad skillz
dub_junkie replied to alexclaber's topic in General Discussion
just watched last nights repeat. loved the tone off the Yeasayer's bassisist's Asat fretless. the guy had a nice sense of space to his playing with some wicked little fills. the vocalist though seemed to lift a lot of his posturing and movement straight off Brandon Flowers, and anyway singers with beards are just not on -

that is a hulluva lot of bass for £400. though if its like the R3/R4 sen ash guitars it'll prolly weigh a fair bit damn I often type levinson blade in on ebay searches but not this past week.

lovin the Shuker - looks gorgeous,I'll bet it plays the same what do the switches do?

I sold a teal sub bass with an abalone plate for 300 quid 18 months ago. up to about 350 is ok for them imo. the not very nice textured finish and lack of detailing is too much of a no-no above that price. it played and sounded as good as my 2 band Stinger I had before it though

I used to post on the Ovation fanclub ( long time Custom Legend owner) but all that praise/worship talk started doing my nut in.well that and teh fact that none of the FS stuff was ever over here. still a good resource though. I'm still wanting a full bodied B768 Elite style USA bass,one day I'll get one. Keir

Possibly the most efficient bass line ever?

"spy in the cab" by Bauhaus the single note on the bass sounds like a tuned drum [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUfUTV1JqU4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUfUTV1JqU4[/url] -
most likely a modulus. he lists his kit in this interview 3rd page down [url="http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=iSCzJpjetGYC&pg=PA50&lpg=PA50&dq=Hutch+Hutchinson+&source=web&ots=hdV9MDYOns&sig=V_Lh7m-jzcnfaFrVO1W29HGySVM&hl=en"]http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=iSCzJpj...GySVM&hl=en[/url]

never played a Sandberg but I love my Euro 5. it's poles apart in character from my SR5,and the B is really excellent on the Spector. I just got the Godlyke Disciple 5 off Eubassix and that sits somewhere between the two,more mids/growl than the Spector and more hi-fi than the MM. I was going to have another crack at a Bongo and had a 5string Hum/Single in mind but went for this instead and I'm glad I did. The Disciple has an 18v pre amp like the Bongo and more room between the J and the end of the f/board. but I guess availability could be an issue with them even if you wanted to have a look. these are a couple of David's pics
