Hi Matt

Nice Spector fella, that looks and I suspect sounds splendid. You can’t fault these basses. 

I still love my Euro 40th - it does rock like no other.

ps thanks for getting me into Vigier…… it’s become a bit of a Passion? 🤣

As a Bongo fan I can vouch for just how adaptable and playable these basses are. 
Great colour and great condition, frankly I think you’re bonkers selling it, but none the less GLWTS 😉

I recently picked one of these up for just over a 1/3rd of the RRP having always been a bit of a SZ fan from the 90’s.

Having looked at comments and reviews from the other Bass forum, I was a bit concerned with the judgement that it was a posh Bassballs with a high price tag. I am admittedly a bit of a Bassballs fan but I’d be lying if I didn’t mention it can be a bit of a bull in China Shop IMO.

Anyway back to the Funk Face,  what a superb usable pedal with lots of accessible funk and no loss of bottom end! 
Caution is required not to go mental with the settings, however a bit of restraint and things are really usable.  
 

I even did the Bass run from Number of the Beast with it on! 🤣🤘

I bought Matt’s Ashdown Funk Face.

I recommend him, good comms and a nice guy.

👍😊

And No. 😁

I’ve tried the standard US Bass Big Muff and it certainly wasn’t for me. But to be be fair I’ve tried a lot of Bass Fuzzes that I didn’t like, either too raspy or a lack of low blend. 

I’ve owned two Bongo’s.

I missed my first graphite one so much that no sooner than I saw a Rolls Burgundy one for sale in Mansons I literally jumped in the car drove to Exeter and bought it!

Seriously great sound great playability and my Swiss Army Bass!

Two months old Boss Waza Air headphones.

Frustratingly no soon did I buy these they announced the Bass specific version. They have been used once to set up so are completely as new.

Thanks for all your advice guys 😊👍

I’m in the market for an envelope filter but need one that keeps the Bass in the signal. At the moment the choices are MXR M82, Source Audio Spectrum or Aguilar Filter Twin? 
 Can anyone give me some advice/experience/pointers? 

Sorry long gone

MXR Analogue Chorus, boxed with leaflets.

Perfect unused condition, bought midway through last year in pandemic put on pedalboard and never used, hence its in perfect condition.

Goodness that’s a tough question.

I have run SWR through SWR, Eden through SWR, Eden through Eden, Ampeg through Eden (stinky poo), Aguilar through Aguilar, Tech 21 through Aguilar (stinky poo), Hartke through TC Electronic (lots of muscle not much personality) and now Mesa through Aguilar SL 112’s which I love…

but recently bought an Ashdown ABM 600 and Ashdown ABM 2x10 and 115 cabs and it sounds immense.😃

So for me it’s a draw so far, personally I trust my ears not my eyes.

I’m looking at buying a second hand stingray. It looks to be in great condition. However, I’m just wondering if anybody in the know can tell me what the deal with the finish on the neck. It almost looks like it’s made of 2 separate bits joined together. 
is it normal for them to be finished like this?

Yep totally normal for a standard ray.

I remember the Westone Thunder 1A bass from school and it was a really solid bit of kit. Great tone, good price and decent. I'd pay £199 for a good one

I’ll second that. I always wanted one but wouldn’t pay over £200 for a clean one.

Hi all

I have a Mk1 Sandberg California active 5 string Jazz/MM. Love it. 

It has Delanos in it from stock, but I'm thinking about swapping them out for something with a bit more, something, maybe growl....🙄

Hearing that the Sandberg Black Labels are popular- anyone able to compare the two? 

Cheers 

I’ve had two sandbergs one with Delano’s and one with Black Label pickups. The Delano’s were a bit more adaptable, however the black labels were immense for rock and metal.

This may be in bad taste but the opening post reads

 

Killed by Death

 

Then shows the picture of a man who has died.

 

 

 

If you know your Motörhead lyrics and Lemmy’s play on words it’s not in bad taste imho. 😊👍

Sad news. Many happy teenage memories playing along to Eliminator!

RIP Amigo

May go nicely with a roasted maple neck!

Hiya,

Yes it’s Standard Fender Fitment. 😊👍

For sale official Fender Jazz Roasted Maple neck. Excellent condition and no fret wear. Fitted with nickel Hipshot HB1 Machine Heads and a Brass Nut. 
 

The only two blemishes I can find on the neck are small lacquer cracks around the E string tuner ferrule and a small hairline lacquer crack before the first fret which appeared when the brass nut was fitted by OV Guitars in Abergavenny  (see pics). Apart from that it’s perfect.

UK mainland postage only £10

Thank you buddy, means a lot, and please let me know when your new “baby” arrives ☺️

Will do pal. 👍😊

Get tempted by this beauty safe in the knowledge that the seller is a decent guy who really looks after his basses.

If Matt says it’s 10/10, it sure is! 👍
