Tempting 🤔

Sold

Thanks Greg. I’ll look into it

I’ve just come across this particular section on basschat to which I thank you all.
Is there such thing as a app you can write tab notes onto a iPad ?  

i noticed a few apps where you can write scores etc, but I read tab very easily 

Thanks 

Looks familiar. Great bass

I play in d standard with my ozzy Trib. 
I find the tension is just about perfect using roto swing bass 50-110 and comparable with 45-105 tuned in e. 
 

Thats what I’ve done, going from 45-105 to 50-110 using D’Addario NYXL. Well pleased 

My normal strings are D’Addario NYXL 50-70-85-105. I’ll try a set of the NYXL 55-75-90-110 and have it set up.

That should do it

Thanks Chaps 

The 44-01 is still for sale. I’m looking for a Lakland P/J

I drop down my E string to D for a few songs during our set and it's ok - feels maybe a bit floppy and I certainly wouldn't want to go any lower (I also use 45-105 usually).  I put up with it because it's only for a couple of songs.  Downtuning ALL the strings might have more repercussions in terms of overall string floppiness and neck relief (neck might get straighter because the strings aren't pulling against the truss rod as much so I think the truss rod might need to be loosened).

 

I'm sure someone will be along soon who has actually done this and has got better advice than I can offer.

 
I hope so neepheid. 

Hi all,

Im seeking some help as our new guitarist and singer has his guitar dropped a full tone to ease his vocals.

What do I need to do to my bass to keep the string tensions and heights in order ? I use 45-105s 
Hope that makes sense 

Thanks 

Dusty

Many thanks guys 👍

Is there anything out there worth checking out ?

My local Ukulele band have asked me to join them and add some bass to their gigs. No problem indoors with power, but outside at fetes, busking etc, power is not always a option.

Is there anything out there ?

Thanks

I was thinking the same. 

Sorry 😞 

Another one of my beauties surplus to my collection. Cutting right back due to space and storage costs.

I can get more pics once I bring it out if interested. Another immaculate example of just how good Laklands are.

In the picture of the 3 “44’s” it’s the one on the left. The one on the right is a US one and a keeper.

It will be sold ‘as is’ without case but I will negotiate for a boxy type case or a hiscoc 

Prefer collection or will mutually meet up if not too far

More of my collection up for sale….

Beautiful and immaculate bass. It must be 10 years since I last played it. 
I will get more pics once out of the storage house.

Theres No case supplied but I could arrange a Gig bag or Hardcase (Hiscoc) at extra.

Prefer collection or mutual meet if not too far.

Does it come with a case?

 

Not as advertised but I can sort one. Message me if interested 

Thanks for that. I’ll change that

1977 - Walked into Holiday Music in Leytonstone, East London to buy a Rickenbacker and walked out with one of those. What a bass. Tempting !! 

Very sad to see this one go, but time to cut back on my collection.

Mexican built in 1994, P/J with a really nice Jazz Neck.

In very good condition. 

I’m not keen of posting basses, but I will consider mutual travelling.

This immaculate Korean made bass is amazing to play and had plenty of comments on how good it sounds.

Some of the pics are a bit naff but I will get some more done shortly.

I also can't get on with flats and like D'Addario EXL160M on my Mustang. They seem to last pretty well and have good zing. 

 

And yep, medium scale is correct for a through body strung Mustang.

EXL160M, are you using that through the body ? Or should I go for 170M ? 

Sorry, brain freeze. Just ordered EXL160M. MANY THANKS
