Indeed, the best bass I bought for 260 quid will pay for a few holidays for my eldest when she gets her mitts on it (and I have no more use for it).

I do occasionally, but not often. I had my SVL basses made as exact copies of my 66 Precision (excepting the colour) so I didn't take it out on the road. It comes along to some local gigs but I tend to use one of my other basses primarily. That will include pub gigs.

Fender precision bass 1971 Price 5000 euro
Steve Browning replied to gregorbass's topic in Basses For Sale
I suspect people will want far more information than that. Weight, nut width, maybe an assessment of fret wear. These would be the very least. My '71 also has the non-logo case. Apparently cases were sourced separately at the time. Lovely looking bass, for sure, but more information would help you reach serious buyers. I might also heed the scam warnings and put your username on a card and photograph it under the strings of the bass too. -
Indeed. We're at the stage where we can set everything up, bit of a tweak of the main vocal and we're good to go. Everyone controls their monitor mix but that's not really needed now. If anyone is teetering on investing and is nervous about the leap into the dark, I say leap. It's an absolute game changer and the band has improved, sonically, a huge amount. Wish I'd gone straight for that option.

I am exactly the same. With one notable exception, I think of everyone here as a chum and hope I treat everyone accordingly. I'm reminded of a local store that was offered a wonderful old Hiwatt stack, by a widow, at a silly price but insisted on paying a fair one instead. I have PM'd sellers in the past to suggest their price is possibly low. As stated, we all have our own (valid) view.

Me neither. I mentally depreciate anything to zero when I buy it, and just want it gone when deciding to move it on. Guess I'm not destined to be a millionaire.

Being Gig Fit (Like Match Fit in football)
Steve Browning replied to Chienmortbb's topic in General Discussion
I confess that I do nothing really. I do walk regularly but that's not specifically to stay in shape for gigs. I gig pretty regularly and don't have any mobility issues. I use lightweight gear now, but more because it's more convenient rather than lighter. As for practise, I haven't really ever practised, other than to learn new songs. I'd probably be half decent if I'd made any effort at all. -
Custom made 6U rack in a fetching blue colour (always had blue cases 'cos all the others backstage were black!). 300mm from front rack strip to the rear one. Doors front and back and I added wheels (two of which are braked) to the rear door. New bolts and captive nuts will be supplied when sold. Excellent case that has done sterling service over the years. Open to offers if the price is a bit steep (although I don't think so personally). Collection is definitely preferred, but I am happy to meet up somewhere reasonable (or somewhere in the Med if you're paying). -
Gotoh supplied screws - is it me ...

I did state I'd done that. Maybe too shallow. -
Found a use for it.-

Interesting. I have spoken with a few Stingray players (I owned an early one and have a Stingray type still) and many agree that the botttom two strings are great, but the top two just disappear when playing live.

Excellent news. Always glad to be able to help. 🙂
