recently joined a band with a drummer that plays the snare with the heavey end of the stick and the two guitarists that Qoute " dont turn up too loud". sufered severe ear damage boys bit scared of going to docs and im a stonemason so use grinders all day!!!!Just had some moulded ear plugs and ther are the absolute nuts I WISHED I DONE IT YEARS AGO> the BEST Instrument ive ever bought as without my ears im Fu-----!. Yeah the band take the piss but i dont care . Dont but a new bass or a cab get ear plugs made, (tried the yellow ones and er20s and the moulded ones jst blow them all way!!!!!!! good luck.

used black label for ages they are nice man, just had two asses set up by the gallery and they put la bella strings on both ther are nice.

good questio about cort it was an a6 and was described as an artisan bass , but cant see how it was a tanglewood as it had cort on the headstck. well i just got a a4 so hope its ok !!!!! fingers and othe things crossed boys!!!!

[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='279364' date='Sep 7 2008, 09:54 PM']Surprised you had issues with one before, all Corts I have ever played have been good quality. yeah think it was de-stung for ages , and maybe should have had it set up by a pro cheers for advice[/quote]

hi guys need some quick advice. i bought a a6 off ebay and the neck was twisted and it had the horrible bridge that i could never set up. and the two flamed body wings were a little mismacthed. so i sold it :-( does anyone know what the new ones are like with the new easier bridge? looking to get a four string as i played my thunmb six at weekend and dont think anytings gonna macth it!! kindest rgerds ziggy/john.

[quote name='6stringbassist' post='266003' date='Aug 20 2008, 12:09 AM']Totally agree. You may sound like you playing whatever bass, but the basses will all sound like whatever they are.[/quote] yeah had rehersals last night took my full trace stack, 5 string warwick dolphin, 4 string usa jazz bass plus :-( this bass just sounded naff next to my warwick. so gonna learn the funk set for sunday on my 5 warwick and contemplate selling/adding set of jazz bartolinis to my jazz.!

got to disagree with first post, this forum is the nuts i put all my 3 basses up for sale had a little interest but nothing for sure , and also i am attached to them sad i know so its difficult to do deals. the feedback on this forum is second to none . people change their mind but this forum is the MOST fairest way to do buisness. example no 1= there is a bass on ebay for £1200 i checked the guys feed back and he bought it a few months ago for £875 ok so people make money on stuff but here i could probabaly get the bass for what he paid for it. example no 2= reserve not met etc, this is a bit of a con compared to this site as here people when they sell basss are also asking what peolpe think is a fait price at the same time, and people give back what they think is fair, we all knoiw what basses are worth but maybe im sad in saying that basses and their owners seem to be a bit more attahed. so mate go somewhere else and get what you want. wicked site!!!!!

yeah true man, im always comented on at gigs how lovely the 5 looks and with the piezo it sounds awesome, just getting pressure from the missus! about selling one before i buy another!!! shame it dont work with her with shoes and bags eh! but nothings movina atthe moment so i coulndt sell it anyway. i bought it for £810.00!! of a getleman from ebay so am begrugded to get rid of it. welll see eh!!

hi everyone, youve prob seen my posts on here, i sem o have 3 decent basses jazz 4 usa plus. warwick sn 5 string dolphin early thumb 6. on my recent for sale post i noticed that the jazz and the thumb got interest and the dolphin sn didnt, was cotemplating keeping the 4 and the 6 nd maybe changing the 5. are mike lull basses the nuts and will it blow my 5 away? many thanks ziggy.

iM a tART!!!! LIKING YOURE PROFILE PICY!!! ANYWAY IM INTO BOTH PLAYED WITH A DRUMMER THAT TAKES UP ALL THE SPACE, NOW PLAYIMNG WITH A GIUTARIST THAT WANTS ALL THe SPACE!!!! then played with a ten peice funk band and had loadsa room was mad and a shamew ause i was concentrating soo hard but the drummer was awesome and= As soon as im locked in with the drumer i cant stop moving , but if you play well some people notice!!! then the other night i had dental teatment then went to gig had alcahol and i was a nutter on stage!!!! all good fun and the best bit was that i got a compliment off about 5 people! Got tobe honest if i see a band theres nothing boring than the bass and drumer having no rapore!! ziggybass.

hi everyone, im thinking of getting a decent backing machine, i used to have lessons and my teacher had a thingy that he put a floppy disk into and out came backing tracks. i was thinking of getting a yamah qy70 or 100 so i can programme some chords and groove and jam over ther top. any ideas or suggestions to any other devices out there that are portable and would work. or any ideas apart from live playing to help me with modes etc and jammimg. kindest regards ziggy.

lovely bass, If i could sell my 4 string jazz, id have it then id have all warwicks, you should keep it mate rather than loose alot of dough, its frustrating just hang in there. ziggy.

Hi everyone , i want to upgrade sell my 4 string its a fender jazz bass plus, i was just wondering wether to sell ot trade for a warwick or status any thoughts? kindest regards ziggy.
