Reggaebass

Any pictures of the fingerboard nilo 

That’s a lot of bass for the money, good luck Joey 

Very cool d g 

Very cool and that fretboard looks nice and dark 

Welcome mango 

Looks scammy, I’d report it 

Hi len, I’ve never traded but I’ve bought from them, I asked for more info and pictures of the basses and they did exactly that, and they arrived no problem, I dealt with Tom who was a really nice guy, I had no problems whatsoever 

If like me you like African Head Charge then this is worth a listen, Barry Dread on bass here who also does a lot of his own stuff , nice bit of playing by drum and bass at 17.50

I'm liking the music and the turntable (which appears to be worth more than quite a lot of my basses on its own!).  How did get the sound on the vid?  

Yeah its a good sound, right at the bottom in the description it’s got his gear list , here you go 

gear list:
Rega Planar 8 Turntable, Apheta 3 Cartridge and Aria Mk3 Phono Stage
Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 2nd Generation Audio Interface
Encoded at 48kHz 32-bit Stereo in Adode Audition

I think we mentioned this album a while back before it was released, well I’ve been listening to it for the last few nights and it really is very good, especially liking these two tracks , Dennis Bovell has done a great job, I’m gonna get the bassline down to this one soon 

and a great production of silly games 

Doesn’t look like that bridge hasn’t moved since day one from what I can see, the neck needs realigning a little though 

How’s this one for a restoration project, don’t think I’d get the time or I might have considered it

Can't say i've ever seen or heard a PRS bass so no idea what they sound like, but the two on the left appeal to me visually👍🏾

You’ve probably heard one jazzy, Robbie Shakespeare played a PRS 4 which I think was a 1986 one, it was one of his studio basses mainly

As I've sold my big amp stuff when the band quit, I had to shop for something nice since we are getting to play together again.

 

This EBS popped up semi-local, so I'd went to check it out:

 

 

I never even knew these existed until last week. It's a T90, full tube 90s watts. Made in China.

 

This head sounds amazing. It has the warmth, the clarity, the grunt.... I like it even more than my former '77 Ampeg V4B. It's a good bit smaller and lighter too. 

 

The deal consisted of this head, a matching Classicline 410 cab and a flight case for the amp. All in for €650. It's a good deal I think. I'm happy with it.

 

Really like that, it looks fantastic, it’s an amp that I wasn’t Really aware of to be honest and I haven’t seen many of them , there’s some good pictures and info in this article , I definitely don’t need any more amps but I’d keep an eye out for one of them

Tadaaaaaa

Very nice, congrats, I like the ones with the stripe 

To my ears 18s put out a much deeper bass especially at higher volume , I know it’s a bit different but reggae and dub sound systems only use 18s for that reason, I don’t know the maths but I’m guessing you wouldn’t get that chest thumping bass from anything smaller 

To further improve my playing I’m working on a couple of Sean Hurley basslines, so I’m paying extra attention to the ghost notes and working on them separately, really enjoying it

Stone cold classic record. Check out the albums “Cabbage Alley” and “Fire on the Bayou” too. 

Thanks very much Q, I’ll definitely do that 

I’ve seen a few places mentioned, exactly what venue is the London one 

Heard this recently, love the Bassline 

Proper relay 😁

Nice one Dale, glad you got it
