    I've been  very quiet as of late. I've gone profoundly deaf in the right ear due to an infection & have not gigged or undertook any music work in weeks. I've got an exploitative operation tomorrow & my first gig in months Saturday. Look after your ear health.

      Ooooo, sorry to hear that Phill. Hope you're not suffering, since the gig. And I hope they sort you out, asap :)

      Thanks Marc, The gig went well but there was such an overwhelming amount of noise coming into my good ear, it was hard to concentrate.

    Went to the Welsh premiere of Bohemian Rhapsody last Wednesday, really enjoyed it too. A few inconsistencies but overall thourougly enjoyed it 👍

      Sounds like you had a cracking week there matey :)  Don't forget to post some links to the recorded material, or snippets of it
      ..... and next time, some beer samples wouldn't go amiss either ;)

      It was tiring but worth it!, Will do when it's released. I filmed a bit but I'm not allowed to post it 🙃 John Smith's was lovely at £2.80 a pint 👌

    I've had 30+ in the past but I'm really cutting it back to a custom "Pingray" fiver, old jazz a fretless & my upright. I think they will cover 99.9% of anything I'd have to cover. I do have regrets selling a few but I suppose that's life 😔

    I'm sort of in the boat with the changes between rounds & flats for different gigs.. Getting really bad blisters from rounds at the moment. John Deacon can be seen licking his fingers before different passages live quite a few times. Although never nose grease, I do occasionally moisten my fingers just a little bit to "ease the pain" I always change strings on pre owned instruments you don't know where they've been 😂

    This is next level! The relicing & yellowing are truly fabulous 👌

    Sounds like a great setup aDx! Always found Cort basses to have a nice fundamental sound to them 👍

      Such a great bassist. Any news on how he's doing nowadays?

    3. Phill

      Phill

      He's doing okay, I have very limited contact with him, but he is aware of the article & such. Need to get a few copies of it asap 

  9. Phill
    I think so too, I'm only a dep so I think I'll have a word with the band first.

    Played with a Manic Street Preachers & Stereophonics tribute band on Saturday. Decent crowd, good band (old boys) but the singer was a bit off. Would start tracks on his own, chop & change the set as we went. I'm depping with them again next month, fingers crossed he doesn't do that again.

      If you get bored one evening, shout out. I'm only 15 miles up the road and I might be able to get an evening pass if I ask SWMBO nicely :lol:

    Thanks for the input! it's going off to my tech in the next few days I'll definitely look through those now thank you 👍

    Surplus to requirements & space! Good condition, a few scratches to the corner protectors & comes with fitted Roqsolid cover with bottom flap. Open to offers of course. Pickup preferred but could deliver within reason. Currently in storage, so apologies for the rubbish pics. Some specs from Markbass - Bass Cabinet Markbass Standard 151HR 8 Ohm Power: 400 W Loudspeaker: Neodymium oudspeaker Type: Neodymium Horn: yes Impedance: 8 ohms SPL ( 1 W/1 m): 100 dB Frequency Response: 40 - 20 kHz Enclosure: Plywood Connections: ¼" Jack & Speakon Markbass Standard 151HR Cabinet The standard 151HR 1 x 15" cab will never leave you lacking in the bottom end department. Many players find that 15" speakers give them a deep, classic sound that suits many music styles. This cabinet can be used on its own, but combining it with a Traveler 102P or a standard 104HR makes for one powerful stack. Features: IMPEDENCE 8 ohms WEIGHT 52.9 lbs / 24 kg WIDTH23.4 in. / 59.4 cm HEIGHT 23.8 in. / 60.4 cm DEPTH 18.9 in. / 48 cm

    Picked up this bass vi at a music store/studio I freelance at. Ex demo model for a great price! Needs new strings & set up etc. I've alway been interested in this instruments history & usage in different genres.

      "..for new graduates?..."

      For students in general..."Pick up your litter, don't annoy and be respectful to the residents of the area where you are studying and FFS stop going on about how little money students have...you can afford to buy drink& drugs!!"

      Rant over...
