  1. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
  2. I use Innovation Honeys on mine but a student had a set of solo tuning Obligatos on hers and with the bass eq knob whacked up they were lush beyond. I am struggling to not buy a set.
  3. [quote name='Hector' timestamp='1474626514' post='3139325'] I'm quite lax in fingerboard cleaning, bit of baby oil every now and again. [/quote] WAIT! People clean and oil their fingerboards?
  4. Does anyone have an unrequited object of DB GAS? If we noted it here we might find that someone has one and could bring it. I will go first. I have always wanted to try a Rob Allen Mouse or Deep 5
  5. That sounds very nice indeed. I used an AI for ages on DB and it hit the spot every time. Ooh ooh ooh ooh you have a mouse! If you come to the DB Bash could you bring it with you? It one of the few things left on my "I need to try that" list.

    G&L JB-5?

    Nope, but I like how it looks!

    Thanks, I will go and look at GFS now. And Ebay for 2nd hand humbuckers. Cos I play so much guitar that I need good tone. As if! But I cannot stop myself.
  8. I have a 73 with an A neck. It was only when I got it that I realised why I just could not get with my othwr P. Jazz nuts 4lyfe
  9. I fancy one now. Thanks everyone
  10. Yes. There is no rhyme or reason to the whole thing, but the market loves the original paint.
  11. [quote name='bumnote' timestamp='1474554269' post='3138768'] The Jerry Scheff is a ltd edition run through Steve Barr at the dudepit some years ago [/quote] Wow, that takes me back!
  12. I have one of those and for years played it without the scratchplate (Jaco and all that) and I nearly binned the Chrome because "I just never use it". I am glad that I was too lazy to empty the drawer they were sitting in.
  13. The NV115 is not hilariously light like the helium filled cabsdujour but it is certainly not a heavy lifft.
  14. Heft. Girth. Weight. Authority. Headroom. All the current buzz words addressed in a 4U package
  15. The Demeter VTBP M 800 D does not have a fan. But it is double height and has a beefy heatsink. But it is still small in the grand scheme of things and no fan makes me very happy. Acoustic Image amps also do not have fans and the beefier ones happily go down to 2 Ohms.
  16. If so, feel free to roll in to the DB Bash in Derby on Oct the 2nd. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/283463-double-bass-bash-derby-oct-2nd/
  17. I have been around the block with more basses than I care to admit to on a public forum. I have a Shuker now and have stopped looking at the Basses for Sale forum. It is an odd feeling, but I am getting used to it.
  18. I use a Qu 32 and it is proper lush. The only thing I miss about the Mackie DL1608 we had before is that the Mackie would let up to 10 iPads/iPods/iPhones control it so that there could be several of these on stage for individual monitor mixes. The Qu will only let me use 1 device. Is this it or am I missing something?
  19. Witness the fitness.
  20. invicta59. Zeller Bass, K&K pickup, GK amp and Fearless F112. Maybe also Tricky Audio 'Greenboy' cabs, and possibly a Tricky Audio builder (Guy) I am sure Guy is very cool and if he rolls in that will be very cool. However, if there are more Greenboy cabs to mess with that would be very cool as well
  21. [quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1474221678' post='3136345'] I may bring my Barefaced Bb2 cab to compare to Daves Greenboy as well. [/quote] I think a lot of us are going to be looking at the Greenboy.
  22. IIRC I was also about to ask you to make me something before you upped sticks. Welcome back I hope Canada is treating you well.

    You are very generous with your assumptions. I cannot even put a shelf up let alone bodge up a pickup winding jig I will get onto ebay.

    [quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1474106386' post='3135626'] Would you be taking them to a professional rewinder? [/quote] You mean people do anything else????!!??!!! My guess was that 2nd hand ones would be the way to go, but it never hurts to ask
