  2. There’s a bunch of Harley Bentons in different designs for your budget. The Mustang alikes are good, especially since the switch upgrade. The J pickup is not as powerful as the P (not unusual in budget basses of any make), but the whole thing makes for a good upgrade chassis (an EMG GZR set would be perfect). https://www.thomann.co.uk/short_scale_basses.html?manufacturer[]=Harley Benton&gk=GIEBSC&sp=solr_b&cme=true&filter=true
  3. From the EB website: Pino Palladino Signature Smoothie Flats Bass Strings are engineered for a smooth, effortless playing experience. Precision-polished for an ultra-smooth feel, these premium flatwound strings glide easily under your fingers. Wound with a cobalt alloy ribbon, they deliver a deep, rich tone that perfectly blends vintage warmth with modern flexibility. I think means that they are the same wrap construction as the normal Cobalts, as the description of these reads: Featuring a SuperBright Cobalt ribbon wrap, Cobalt underwraps and optimal hex-core to wrap ratio, Although no mention of the under wrap on the PP set.

  5. If you own a double bass you are already deemed as ready by others.
  6. Help The Poor - Robben Ford
  7. Lady Ez and me don’t do Christmas presents any more so the first 2 questions are moot. So then we’re into the money no object question. A decent double bass is always going to be in there and I’ve recently developed ’Ray type GAS. However, given my weight requirements it would have to be chambered, which means a custom build and if that’s the requirement, it would also be medium scale and probably passive. That said, Sadowsky do a MM pickup only that comes in at my weight requirements, so that would be an option too.
  8. That SS ‘Ray looks so good.

    Hello

  10. A 32” Wilcock Mullarkey was being played with The Divine Comedy on Jool’s Later on Sunday night.

  13. If the lesson delivers what you have asked for, or if the lesson has addressed an issue the teacher has highlighted (mine was muting when I took lessons - Gareth Morgan - top bloke) then it’s a result. If you find yourself wanting something more, you need to raise the issue. If they then avoid the issue, it’s time to move on.
  14. I hope you all had a great time. Now, I’ve got the popcorn and the liquid refreshment to hand and I’ve cleaned my spectacles - bring on the photos!

  16. Back, Steve.
  17. I would work out where the cuts are likely to be. Then, before cutting, I would smear the area with some superglue, let it dry and then cut. Perhaps even add a small piece of tape over the area too.
  18. Under Pressure - Queen
  19. That’s a great birthday present. Go Mrs Homatron! Enjoy.
