  1. Veeery nice. Good job for my wallet I don't do 5-strings (aka 4-string with super long thumbrest)
  2. I've been in the same band for 4 years and we get on pretty well, both musically and socially and we're all pretty competent musically. We often have (had!) band nights out and bring partners along which helps. The band that drinks together stays together?
  3. Have a look at the baseline to Fernando. Right up the dusty end that one. Legend has it there are two types of people. Those who like ABBA and those who tell lies.
  4. Mostly fingers but occasionally a pick. I have a wooden one which I've nicely 'worn in' but was a gift so no idea where it came from or I use a thick felt job....much to the mirth of my band mates who refer to it as a 'kiddy' pick (barstewards)
  5. I have Elite flats on my Lull (came with it). I'm impressed, they're much nicer to play than others I've tried which are Thomastik, Fender and some 'as fitted' on my Maruszczyk
  6. so cute https://ebay.us/kimqSK
  7. Billy Sheehan Signature drive pedal in the box with the dual input lead Small nick on the top edge Postage £5
  8. Welcome @Sully Some very nice basses you have there. Rest assured, as a gear nerd, you are among friends on here
  9. Hello & welcome @JSbass Much good info and mirth available here.....and gear, plenty of gear 😊
  10. I agree with this...I was just joshing. Our singer always packs away her mic and voice box and then announces that she's packed her gear and then disappears to the bar...she re-appears moments later with a tray full of drinks and then gets stuck into gear packing. We also end up with some of our regular fans helping to hump gear which is amazing.
  11. Of course she will be happy carrying the PA in and out of venues.... ..........in parallel universe 😂
  12. Be well Blue Always good to hear from our bass brother Stateside
  13. We use Sennheiser e845's, we also have an SM58, and a Behringer. They all seem to do much the same job but the SM58 is inclined to be trebbley (is that a word) and feedback a bit more. The Sennheisers are less prone to feedback and have better mids and lows. For the money, the Behringer is great. My advice, buy used off of eBay, clean it carefully and thoroughly with an alcohol solution before using and then if you don't get on with it re-list it on eBay and buy something else. Be careful with very cheap ones on eBay purporting to be leading brands, they're almost always chinese fakes.
  14. Thanks dude Look into my eyes.....give in to the G.A.S 😊
  15. I am in awe of folks who can diy. DIY = Damage It Yourself when I'm involved!
  16. FOR SALE - NO TRADES THANKS My Barefaced Super12T Bought from this parish 2 years ago. It has the controllable tweeter (hence the 'T') and comes with a Roqsolid cover with plywood grill protector and bottom flap It's been gigged but is in good condition apart from a chip in the wood at the top right on one of the ports. This is inside and doesn't really show unless you're looking (I've stuck a bit of black boot polish on to cover it up) I can courier for cost, which should be around £35 via UPS fully insured. I will get a quote for you if you wish If you're looking at this you know how good these cabs are. If not, there are many reviews on here and online. All the heft you'll ever need without the physical weight is how I'd describe this cab
  17. FOR SALE ONLY SOLD elsewhere Will trade for mullah in my bank only Bruce Thomas Profile Bass with serious upgrades which are Fender USA '62 Custom Shop pickups Gotoh Resolite Machine Heads Hipshot High mass bridge Upgraded pots and caps I bought this off here last year with the upgrades installed and added the hipshot. I have all the original bits including the bridge tray It's had a full pro set up so stands me at £600 (not including the case). It plays and sounds wonderful Only selling as I have serious gas for another more expensive bass - come on guys n gals you know how it is Will ship in a semi-rigid case so fully protected and will courier with UPS for around £30.00 - exact cost to be confirmed. Would do a meet up after 29th March within reason The Bass Centre gig bag is included in the sale If you bought a new Bruce Thomas and added the above bits it would set you back close to £800 without the pro set up and for that you'd have a great looking, sounding and playing bass. I think my price is fair as it's in 'as new' condition. Weight is 4.15kg and neck width at the nut is 42mm If you're not aware of this bass, here the blurb http://www.basscentre.com/british-bass-masters/bruce-thomas-profile.html Thanks
