Yet people like these???

You're probably right, just annoying that it's so difficult to get what to some, is important info. Think your correct re being discontinued. I'll have to look for a s/h CA35 as it's the vintage cream I want and they don't do it in the CA25. Thanks for the reply.

Been trying to find out the bridge string spacing on these. I imagine the normal Sterling Ray 35 has Stingray spacing of 17.5mm but don't know if the CA is the same or not. It's this classic slab body shape I like. Chances are, it has the same spacing but MM don't put this info on their site. Any help appreciated.

I use 5 string basses all the time now but after reading your reply, thinking about it, I don't really use the G string much either but, really depend a lot on the low B. I'll dig out the old jazz and give that a go so, thanks. Sounds like a great idea.

Yup, $750 for one of the best performances of the festival and $18,000 for one of the messiest 😂

Quite interesting to see who was considered worth what in the day.

I wish I were able to say "we'll see if you're right" but I'm not likely to be here in 20 years time. I have no problem with your liking his performance, you shouldn't really have a problem with me not liking it.

Just watched some rapper (someone Lamarr) (I guessed at the double "r") Appeared to have backing track problems at the start, every other word bleeped out no doubt due to language and all this whilst his mate smashes up something Lamborghini looking with a baseball bat. You know what? I'm glad I'm old😤

I seem to get quite a few gigs next to rivers and by about 10pm, everything is dripping with the humidity. So, a quick wipe down, back in the hardcase and then bass out of the case when back home and also leave the case open over night.

Yeah, bloody wrong gauge though. 😂

Just got my hands on an acoustic I bought from Pete. Apart from it being a good deal, he's one of the nicest and helpful members I've dealt with. Nothing was too much trouble, despite my continuous whining. Great comms too. A credit to the community. Buy/sell with confidence.

From the main menu, look under "Performance" Good luck with your search.

Might do better in the Musicians/bass players wanted section. There are probably some members that only look at that section.

I've owned three Aria basses in the past. An SB1000, fabulous playability and sound but ridiculously heavy, and two Aria pro11 6 string basses. I regret moving on the SB simply as it would've been worth 5 times more now. I regret moving on the two 6ers because they have both been the most comfortable 6 string basses I've ever owned and played. In addition, with a quick knob twiddle, sounded no worse than any of the Status and Spector 6ers I've owned. No idea about the modern stuff though.

Watching the NTV awards. Opening act, Rak-Su, who apparently won the X Factor having performed the self penned "Dimelo". Which they performed tonight. Can't only be me surely that's noticed that the chorus, is actually the verse from "I wanna be like you" from Jungle book....is it? Isn't it?

Yes, that's the best bit. Vintage y'know.

Here, and there's still stuff in the bedroom😂

To be honest, this was 15 odd years ago and we were doing a bit of sightseeing from Cork to the Ring and back again so honestly can't remember. There was Guinness involved😂 Was not that long before he passed away in fact.

Just tried mine with my Shuttle 6.0 Absolutely brilliant.

Stand up, and Stress fest are the two biggies for me but all eminently listenable.

Be sensible. Pay two grand off the mortgage. This will save you money in the long run. Of course, if you don't have one, then just buy another bass or loads of other cool S#17😂

Triple ports at back and on/off switch for the tweeter. Celestion 108 loaded. Just found one on Gumtree for £60. Probably nick it for £50. Mine's the older type with Richter on the front. I think it's only about 250 watts but it knocks out gig volume with the LM2 on No 4. Moves a huge amount of air and seriously handles a low B.
