  1. What do you recon? I got a Mexican 50's style P bass, fiesta red, it was my first bass I bought in 2013. I've bought and re-sold a few others since but this one i just wouldn't. It sounds good (i put the 1962 pickups in there at some point), the chunky neck feels right in my big ol hands... some of the notes up top are out of tune but it's like family... I do desire for example a Sire P5R (when they bring out a sonic blue version - will they?)... So, in my quest not to buy another bass... could be worth replacing the maple fretboard with rosewood (is that even possible?), fixing the tuning, color the body sonic blue and have the neck smooth-rounded... I mean, can it be done? Any idea what kind of costs do you recon I'd be looking at? Hope all is well, thanks in advance for your thoughts D
  2. So… The Protection Racket 7054-00 Acoustic Bass Guitar Case dimensions are : 17" x 50" x 5 1/4" Jack Casady dimensions are : 16 3/4" Wide x 46" Long x 3 1/4" Deep. Do you think all that extra space will be too much?
  3. to be fair it has an absolutely enormous lower body…. can't seem to get it into anything
  4. Hello, struggling to understand wether this is a joke or serious? Does the body fit in the bottom there?
  5. I heard this is not good for the bass and that it would need a set up everytime you put it back together. Anyine have experience with it and wants to share? Thanks!
  6. Wow glad you guys are there to answer for me... Sorry went off grid. Yes they are aquila reds. I have only tried other aquila strings (the ubass kala) and they didn't woek tuning wise. I guess one could convert to whatever strings perhaps.
  7. Aquila Short Bass One 60, mint condition with various spare strings (not the E) and soft case. I wanted to get a double bass, had not the space nor the money, got this, sound is pretty close but i can't get used to how it feels and never play it. We can work out postage if you want but i personally wouldn't risk it. East London based, can meet.

  10. Bought this thinking I'd get in to the 5 string thing.... Turns out I can't. Bass sounds fkn great but too much for meto get to grips with.

It has flats on it at the mp but will remover and put round wounds back on. No trades. Not in any way. I need 💰Happy to receive offers if reasonable.
  11. This year I've released two records (actually number 2 releases on September 10th but...) that have turned out to be fairly popular. I'm actually playing drums on the things but the records feature some of my favorite bassplayers in the UK. Figured you might like to check it out! Bassplayers featured on the records are John Edwards, Colin Somervell, 'Level' Neville Malcolm, Ruth Goller & of course we could add Dan Nicholl's left hand on his SH101 to the platter. Hope you enjoy! https://davederosemusic.bandcamp.com/album/agile-experiments-vol-1 https://davederosemusic.bandcamp.com/album/agile-experiments-vol-2

  16. interesting guys. I love my DR Legend flatwounds so much that I am considering putting them on all my basses (a bit OTT I know, but I really like them). Any of you tried both and can compare?
  17. [quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1497355079' post='3317471'] When i got V7 (when they first came out) I emailed Sire about the bags and they sent me two free of charge (i had planned on getting a second V7, but haven't bothered yet). Now THATS good customer service :-) I see that Thomanns sell them for £60 now. They are nice bags but nothing you cant get close to for less money if you actualy need a bag and not just looking for a complete package. [/quote] yeah, I actually don't need one BUT because I'd seen so many unpacking Vic's with the case in it I was kind of expecting one even if the Thomann website doesn't say the item cones with one...
