  1. Before you buy an ‘acoustic’ bass try a double bass for a while if you don’t have one already.
  2. I’d chuck in the Chowny, it’s a new UK bass and there aren’t that many.
  3. Mine has the front strap pin on the horn, so not as bad as the original positioning.
  4. Also Atelier ZPO5
  5. One for the collection SC Alembic

    AGH basses?

    Had anyone heard of these before today ? Does anyone have any experience with them? They look rather impressive…. https://aghcustombasses.co.uk
  7. Surprisingly, I found the TC RH series amps produce a very transparent reproduction of my double bass. I use an RH750 into a vanderkley 12” with no issues.
  8. Just to restate the original point of the thread. If you’re moving on from 4 strings, is there any point in going to 5 instead of 6.
  9. Well, if nothing else we have created the word pointiful. I suspect ‘pointmore’ was what @Lozz196 was after but pointiful is definitely better.
  10. Let’s not get sidetracked …
  11. 😂
  12. I thought I’d throw the question out there. I started on 4s and migrated to 5s. Now I’m migrating to 6s. I think of the B and C as extensions to a 4 bass, with the B the more ‘useful’. But the C allows some colour under certain circumstances. Your thoughts?
  13. It rather depends on your budget. Atelier Z have a couple of excellent basses that can be strung this way. I have a lovely ZPO that does this really well (E-C).
  14. Iconic(ish) bass verses new Uber bass. I say ish as it’s not a Mk1 which I think is the ultimate Wal (I px’d mine 🥴). I know which one I’d go for ….
  15. Probably worth mentioning the scale length…
  16. An inch or two shorter and one more string …..
  17. Thanks. I have messaged you via Messenger.
  18. I have a 3/4 bass I really should move on. It’s got quality Thomastic Spirocore strings on it (an important point and £180 alone) and has been properly set up for jazz and orchestra. I used it for my first couple of years. It’ a Gear For Music laminated model and is a very good example. It would come with the soft case as well. Stand not included. £375 would do it. The pickup in the photo is a Fishman BP 100 that I can do for £50 with the bass. I’m in Leatherhead just off the M25. Thanks for looking….
  19. From my experience: Sire for value. Atelier Z for quality. Good luck
  20. I’d like to try out an ACG fretless with one of the latest DFMs and the Uber pickups. Does anyone live within about an hour of Leatherhead with such a beast who might enable to help me out? Thanks.
  21. Thx
  22. That, is very very nice ….. 🤔
  23. Does anyone have one of the Junior Jazz from Fender to offer an opinion on them? I might contemplate a move on one. Thx
