At least it was someone on here - well done

Gah someone bought it as I logged on to confirm the bid!

Here's a blue one from me last gig

I just got one of these [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPU8ckQ_D6M"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPU8ckQ_D6M[/url]

Mostly because I was attracted to the shiny lights, used it for one guitar gig so far, it's very well built and very quick. Though got stung for vat and handling charge, so not very cheap from America.

I think thats very cool, it's like an old pre industrial revolution weavers house in Lancashire, but with bases.

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='470478' date='Apr 23 2009, 10:57 AM']It's great.. I love it. The TF neck is a quite wide, and shallow front-to-back, and it's very easy to play. Even with ancient flats it sings and sustains for weeks.

In fact, I'm tearing myself up over whether to keep it and sell my '71 or get a Fanklin-like neck for my '71 and sell the TF on.

I've got The Bass Doc's lovely ebony neck on my '71 at the minute and I used each bass for half a set last weekend. They both sounded and played marvellous.

GAH![/quote]

Give me a shout when you've decided?

What do you think of that Tony Franklin? Hows it play?

That is hugely good, really, really good

I'm just amazed, and really ashamed at my comment about the bit at the end.

Juan you're one of my favorite ever players, thanks so much for replying to me directly.

I manipulate other peoples instruments, it’s what I do.


[quote name='DanOwens' post='463950' date='Apr 16 2009, 02:12 PM']I know, in listening to it to figure it out, you've (yes, I'm blaming it all on you odub) made me decide to switch my fretless neck to my Darkstar Precision and make my Jazz fretted.

You!!!

PS. Sorry for that badly formed sentence![/quote]

A quick edit to say, this song proves without a shadow of a doubt that no matter how good the song is, there is NEVER space for 3 minutes on unlistenable self indulgent twonk on the end.

Hmm I was hoping it'd be more like a pedal I could just turn on, now I need a 71 fretless P and the ability to play one,

That is a killer tone though

Right, I've done a search, I've read the wiki, I've read wikipedia and seen the equipment list, but could anyone offer any opinion on how exactly the bass tone to "the Widow" on Francis the mute is created?

I'm glad people have been saying the gear is too good for them, I feel the same. One of the main things that stops me buying anything more expensive (for now).

Counter Argument
But I like nice things, and why not

Counter-Counter argument
I've seen really good players, playing very cheap stuff and sounding ace

turn your amp up,

I'll 'ave it

I'll collect too!

Oh god dammit that's the the first one I've fallen for In ages.

Oh that sucks, even with the squables this is still the best forum I read. I hope you got what you deserve in the form of lovley cash.

I have a soft touch, me band reckons on that I always sound tentative and not forceful enough, so it's something I'm trying to work on.

beat me to it

That my friend is one very cool bass

Don't see many of these pop up.

For a moment I thought this was the extention cab and got very excited

Aye, another one for the Trace 715, I had one, great for small gigs/practice, onboard DI for louder.

The man you attacked has a massive amount of ability both in manufacture and design of his basses.
The basses you have seen are probably prototypes and are being sold off near to the price of the build, let alone the time and effort he puts into them.
Prosebass is a pefectionist who's looking for a balance between quality and price.
I know, I own one of his basses and have met the guy. ( Have you? )
I find myself in a position to say that I COULD NOT replace the guitar I have because it IS UNIQUE.
And it has a UNIQUE sound!

PUT A VALUE ON THAT!

I'll second that

I'll get some pictures done up, don't have any with me at work.

Some details

Rosewood Fretboard, bolt on next, medium scale I believe (I'm pretty sure its 32", you can get normal and medium scale in this range and it's definitely smaller than my G&L, though I never noticed when i was my only bass for two years, I'll measure tonight).

It's a very attractive red burst, It looks like [url="http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.musiccorner.co.uk/images/igb_40.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.musiccorner.co.uk/index.php%3Fmanufacturers_id%3D202&usg=__CFFJbhuFm4zNfmn4qZ8gXEcmyc4=&h=544&w=160&sz=24&hl=en&start=1&um=1&tbnid=56tnp3RYX4eq0M:&tbnh=133&tbnw=39&prev=/images%3Fq%3Daria%2Bigb%2B65%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN"]This[/url] (Aria IGB40 )

Only it has more knobs (I believe that’s what makes it a 65), basically active, with low mid and high, balance pot between the two pickups (duncan design PJ) and volume knob.

It used to have really nice action (I like it low), until I put TI flats on, which I think have a bit less tension, so it either needs tighter strings or the action tweaking.

It's a small body and very light

y'know I never did reply to this.

If someone came to pick it up (Kings Cross), what £80 or exchange for a pedal or something?
