  1. [quote name='chris_b' post='462242' date='Apr 14 2009, 04:14 PM']My imagination is always better than I am but my playing usually takes several steps forward when I buy better gear. In my experience better gear helps to improve your confidence and playing ability.[/quote] +1 It's a constant process, trying to improve your playing, then your sound.. then your imagination goes up a level, and so the whole thing continues.. Having said that, I think there's a point where you probably can't get much better gear once you spend over a certain amount of money, but contiually working on your playing will always improve you as a musician.
  2. [quote name='tischbein' post='460335' date='Apr 12 2009, 07:35 AM']Hmmm... nobody home...[/quote] Sorry. been away for Easter weekend in London.. PM replied to!
  3. [quote name='acidbass' post='460680' date='Apr 12 2009, 06:09 PM']Wow, looks the business! How does it compare to your other Precision in terms of sound? More throaty I'd suspect?[/quote] +1 very cool finish indeed!
  4. That does look really nice, though a lot of lifting to achieve it I guess...
  5. There are some bass players who are more 'conservative' than others, and vice versa.. Same as in all other walks of life isn't it?
  6. Age is just a state of mind (apparently...)
  7. B-U-M-P! £55 inc postage, anyone??
  8. [quote name='Sercet' post='459660' date='Apr 10 2009, 10:24 PM']I often see people on this forum selling basses because their wife/girlfriend impose a one in one out rule and others who would like to buy a bass but can't, again because of the wife/girlfriend. Well, my wife has stopped me selling this - she's always liked the look of it (she doesn't play), and when she found out it was made in August '89 (the month/year we got married) she put her foot down. I was going to use the funds raised to but a new EUB...which she insists I go ahead and buy. It's effectively her bass now. Apologies to those who came close to buying it (You should buy Beedster's Wal instead). Steve[/quote] Good decision, if I might say so....
  9. [quote name='mathewsanchez' post='459467' date='Apr 10 2009, 05:49 PM']Here we go: [/quote] That looks really nice!!
  10. That's a very good price for a Wal, even in this climate! Good luck with it Chris
  11. [quote name='YouMa' post='457893' date='Apr 8 2009, 10:22 PM']Is anybody on here into the stuff Scott Walker from the Walker brothers did,i really like the production.Anybody with me on this or am i still the fairly young man into old mans music?[/quote] Great voice and some fabulous solo albums.. I've always liked his take on Jacques Brel songs too.
  12. Great colour! Looks like a very nice bass. Played one some years back and it sounded really good...
  13. Amazing! Well done....
  14. [quote name='molan' post='456643' date='Apr 7 2009, 06:06 PM']Some interest but nothing concrete so this is still available [/quote] I can't believe this is still here??? I'm not a 6 string player, but this is really something special for the money... Good luck with the sale!
  15. Really enjoyed this thread - proves you're never too old to learn.. Some great players I've never heard of but I think that Paul Jackson clip with the drummer was unbelievable!
  16. SOLD pendingthe usual..
  17. [quote name='jhk' post='455824' date='Apr 6 2009, 08:41 PM']PM`D[/quote] And replied...
  18. Had a couple of PMs regarding the measurements, so these are the external measurements of the case: 49cm x 20cm x 51 cm or 19.5" x 8" x 20.25"
  19. [quote name='Beedster' post='455193' date='Apr 6 2009, 10:06 AM']I sooooo miss that baby and would have it back had I not taken the decision a year ago that I would bever use FX again. Yes, the compressor is overkill, but it is such glorious overkill! The funk sounds that I could get out of this unit were incredible making it more of a bass synth than an FX unit. Bootsy eat ya heart out This is a stupid price (I think less than you paid me Nik and that was a stupid price), and it's a very rare piece of kit so well worth a speculative punt. Chris PS goes without saying that Nik is an awesome guy to deal with[/quote] Thanks for the kind words Chris! Yes, 'more of a bass synth' sums it up well and it does give a good Bootsy/P-Funk impression! It's a very versatile piece of kit for not too much money as you say... Hope all's well with you; how are you getting along with that lovely fretless Wal by the way? Nik
