Just jumping in, The Earl Haig would be great! Be great to meet & see others again

Been having a great experience with Bass Bro’s. They sold my 72 Jazz for me recently & sorted out a problem with the bass too for me before it being sold. Excellent service & very communicative. In addition, I’ve. bought some great OC2’s from there too

EBMM Stingray Classic V
Purchased at the beginning of the year (see other NBD post) Absolutely lovely bass in great condition (bit of rust on the top two pup cover screws) Sounds like a Stingray would if it have 5 strings!
Selling to fund another Overwater.
Pickup, meet or post (at cost)& organisation of buyer) is all fine & I have the OHSC too.
Open to sensible offers too but no trades.

EHX Bass Micro Synth Pedal -
Purchased last year from Andertons maybe? A powerful good tracking bass synth. Need to raise funds for another silly bass purchase!
Pickup, meet or post (at cost) is all fine & I have the OG box too. (I have taken the little feet off the bottom & I haven't got them anymore)
There is a little bit of green pen on one of the sliders too
Open to offers too.

MXR Vintage Bass Octave Pedal -

That's great to hear! Same experience here too. I was messing around with the centre detented pots on my Custom P5 & Did something to one of them & they sent a whole new knob, spring, instructions plus two allen keys to tighten them up too. Cant fault them!

I absolute love any form of Bass VI, been using the Squier for many years & got to use it on a few sessions/performances too luckily!
Switched to the Labella flats first then shimmed the neck etc & had great results. I do have a very cool Fender Custom Shop Bass VI arriving on Monday 😄 which I've been waiting at least 2 1/2 years for

I’ve nearly bought a classic 5 a few times but haven’t, mainly because I play mainly seated and the lack of a forearm contour puts me off. Some of those pastel finishes like coral and mint are just lush but oh so rare over here…
Yes, I've been playing it sitting down mostly & it does rub a bit but it's manageable at the moment!

4 Years ago. A nice tribute gig at a festival quite close to home. Arrived early & watched all of the bands on before us etc. Quickly drank my pint of Brains Smooth before setting up quickly on stage (quick turnaround)
Started the first song, all good, then second. I felt myself start to slip behind the beat constantly & consistently a beat behind then 2 then 3. Started feeling a bit lightheaded too. Leant up against my amp to compose myself & felt myself slowly sliding down towards the floor.
Next thing I find is a very large burly biker bloke physically carrying me under his arm outside to get some air.
I'd been spiked. Absolutely terrifying & a not so nice feeling for about two days. Band sounded great from outside (minus the bass) I still go paid for the gig too

That fretless is rather nice too 🙂 Natural stingrays = my favourite kind.
Thanks! It's a special one
I do like the sunburst type ones but the natural is perfect

Lovely stuff. I can hear exactly what that sounds like just by looking at it!
It's near perfect sound-wise. Just how a stingray should.

Just took ownership of this lovely bass. Sounds like a classic Stingray but with the extra string!
Little bit heavy, but manageable for me. Been after one for a while & got offered one from a private stock in January 2022
Got a session coming up on Thursday so I'm going to take it along
p.s. It matches my fretless 4 perfectly!

Fanstistic! I'd love a full-fat Cali76- I'm pretty sure there's a Compact Deluxe in my future instead, unless one comes up at the right moment.
The compact is great too, I've got one on a small board so it's just about working out which i prefer I think

So, I've been moving some kit along to fund a new bass. Sold an OC2 at the beginning of the week & have now acquired another plus the Origin Effects Cali 76! I've been messing around with the Cali for a few hours today & there's nothing I don't like about it!
The OC2, again is just classic & it's always good to have a spare or two, or three, ir four
To be fair I couldn't leave them both there at the price paid, or that's just my excuse haha!
Not looking forward to finding room for the Cali on a any of my pedalboards though!
