Great job mate I picked up a Boosey and Hawkes Golden Strad a while back that had been thrown out by a school it looks quite similar but it's Czech. I had it set up by a luthier don't think I have your woodworking skills man but I also picked up a a Michael Poller bass for buttons and stripped the lacquer so I could have a blonde! Good luck! This the Golden Strad [attachment=72014:Bass4.jpg] This is the Poller after I stripped it and oiled it [attachment=72015:front.jpg]

Cheers I'll check them out and Rev I'd need to be able to do the triplets in the first place

Hi folks looking for a set of strings that are good for pizz but can slap a bit on, I have the tapewound black innovation rabs which I loved initially, but when I play my other bass with the steels I love the projection, so looking for a halfway house.

The 'Ungentle Art' DVD by Mark Rubin and Kevin Smith is good if you can get it

SOLD

Clarky bought a Shadow DB Pickup paid immediately..... Great guy recommended!

I saw one for sale in Glasgow recently and emailed the person it might still be available it looked quite reasonable

That's a bargain mate go for it...

I've been playing with same drummer on and off for about 20 years and he's very loud and a great player but you know I like it.

Cheers!

+1 for the doubler

My fretless ray started off life as a fretted apparently

In the For sale section. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=101923"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=101923[/url] Shadow SH950 double bass pickup this is brand new, not even out of the box, never got round to fitting it looking for £100 delivered [i]The Shadow SH950 is an improved version of the "Underwood" pickup. In size, appearance and application the two pickups are virtually identical. The system consists of two "lugs" that are simply slotted - or if necessary fitted - in to the "ears" of the bridge. The two lugs are connected by a sturdy coaxial cable which terminates with a black plastic covered standard 6mm (¼ in) in-line jack socket.[/i] [url="http://www.contrabass.co.uk/sh_950_pickup.htm"]http://www.contrabass.co.uk/sh_950_pickup.htm[/url] [attachment=58356:shadow_pick_up_med.jpg] Not the actual box but Identical!
