[quote name='mhuk' post='12043' date='Jun 4 2007, 08:11 PM']Maybe someone who has one will tell us how they play and what they sound like.... [/quote]
I might just bite the bullet...[url="http://www.bachmusik.com/en/p100792/bach-pb60-butterscotch/"]this one[/url] just speaks to me. and for only €135 it isnt that big of a risk... -
[quote name='beerdragon' post='8367' date='May 28 2007, 10:41 PM']After a few emails asking about shipping prices i gave up when they did'nt reply. so any info would be appreciated.[/quote]
they quoted me €22.50 for Portugal (where I live) and €28.50 for the UK (why it's more expensive, beats me O.o) -
they look sleek
had heard about adapting a 4-string neck to a 5-string, but I guess string spacing is very small...and are they comfortable to play? -
that looks rather sexy any mods...or all stock?

[quote name='TPJ' post='9794' date='May 31 2007, 11:51 AM'][url="http://www.billlawrenceusa.com/"][color="red"]Bill Lawrence Products[/color][/url] is very much different from [url="http://www.billlawrence.com/"][color="blue"]the Bill Lawrence[/color][/url]
There used to be a whole history of the dispute between these two on the second site above but they seem to be re-hashing things right now. The second site is the real Bill Lawrence and you can find lots of reviews of his products if you Google him.
I too bought a P-Bass pickup off ebay thinking it was the real MaCoy but it sounds good and was cheap.
Cheers,[/quote]
now I'm confused...there are actually 3 Bill Lawrences?
[quote name='BargyBass' post='10321' date='Jun 1 2007, 12:50 AM']I was hoping these were the ones made by the real Bill Lawrence and his website does say he'd started making these again last October on a limited run.. I'm sure it's one of these that's on it's way to me.. The other company don't appear to be making 'em, so you never know..
If it sounds good when I drop it in, that'll be me pleased!![/quote]
hope you got the real thing mate...its gotta be annoying to think you're getting something good and it ends up being a knock-off -
as good as it looks...I really dont think thats a €10000 bass...

[quote name='BargyBass' post='9663' date='May 31 2007, 01:28 AM']When this arrives, I intend to install it and attempt to give it a review..
Seems there's very little information about these pickups on t'internet
so I'll try and shed a little light.. I'm hoping I get lucky like I did with
my Roberts Strings and Q-Parts bridge from eBay..
Bass on a budget? That's my name!![/quote]
please do...I've been looking at those pups for a while, but didnt really want to bite the bullet...guess you'll be our local BL ginny pig -
silly me who was actually listening had to watch it again...this time with attention to details
seriously now, they're both good players... -
yup...and you can order them from a spanish dealer too (www.sxguitarspain.com)
-
After the SX hype has cooled off a bit..I'm considering to buy one (yeah I know...always late ).
What do you think of your own? Any mods?
OH...and some porn would be nice -
it seems you lot became DB players...by accident
yeah I was thinking about getting lessons...just dont know any good techers..got to keep asking around.. -
I often wonder...what drove you to become a double bass player? did you start as an electric bassist? what made you take the leap?
I've been thinking about taking the leap myself, but I'm not really sure I have the skills/funds/guts to do it...
Dont get me wrong, I do love my electric basses, but there's something about the sound of a double bass that I especially enjoy...not to mention they're the classiest thing ever -
[quote name='Linz' post='7448' date='May 27 2007, 01:51 AM']Good for you - where in South of Europe?[/quote]
as south as it gets - Portugal
[quote name='Viajero' post='7467' date='May 27 2007, 03:21 AM']No denying that that's me in the North-east of Spain. Immortalised in a cluster map, fantastic. Who're the Czech and the Portugese, though?[/quote]
I'm your iberian neighbour
I thought there'd be more of us living outside the UK...but we seem to be a handful -

[quote name='ste_m3' post='747' date='May 17 2007, 08:23 PM']Is long hair cool again? i used to have some nice floppy locks, and im thinking about letting it grow out again. I just hate the imbetween stage where you look like one of those people that are to lazy to sort there hair out. hmm.[/quote]

[quote name='phatmonkey' post='11' date='May 16 2007, 10:49 PM']On the 28th day, it shall be gone!
Make sure you move over all your user profiles and any important threads (build threads etc). Basstalk will be completely gone in a few weeks.[/quote]
mmm...still, the domain has been paid for, so maybe you could leave a link or redirect users to this new forum for a while no? -
