If I was looking for a hardware synth now, one of the Hydrasynth models would be top of my list.

I actually have a Hydrasynth Explorer,  the Modal would be in addition and with 61 keys

Am mulling over used 61 key synths and this has caught my eye locally

Modal Argon . Cheaper than the used Gear4Music one on offer.

Anyone who can comment on these please advise me ...JOdeV

I saw them years ago in Leeds with TM Stevens on bass, what a gig that was. 

Still worth seeing, Mike Clark still quite dynamic and Chris Severin sounded fine on a Seven String schecter.  I'd go again,  specially since I might scrounge another guest list spot from Mr Clark.

Nothing inspiring here for Bass Players 

 

 

Wish I could have seen them live with the late Paul Jackson, so laid back and effortlessly funky. Did get to see latterday Headhunters with Mike Clark & Bill Summers at Ronnie's last year, was brilliant.

"Gourmet tone woods"? Oh dear. Interestingly, quite a few exotic woods are poisonous.

Afromosia dust is no fun. Woodworking pal of my dad's was careless with the sander and was hospitalised. Teak is toxic too.

Lovely. Really like glossy instruments with signs of regular careful use and wear. Wish I had the money.

@chriswareham what day are you on at the Lex ? Your Band name. Haven't been there in yonks, would be cool to hear those Acoustics .... JOdeV

How're you getting on with it?

What do you play it through?

mostly this, though ive a few nexus cabs. This is 4 ohm 56lbd and makes the laney a semi practical option. Other than its aabbsurddly loud

Yup. I got one for 599 some time ago, pick up only. Hefty thing to pick up from Halesowen

Testing my new Growler 5

 

 

 

Saw that the Growlers were available in l/h , are they worth the money. Certainly a nice looking Bass.

Keep on browsing the Reverend website and (semi) hoping they'll produce some left handed versions

Possibly an unpopular opinion here, but Power Windows is my favourite Rush album. The trio of Manhattan Project / Marathon / Territories is still my favourite three song run from any album ever. 

And some brilliant Basslines too, the big money is a favourite for me .

Do prefer the later 70s stuff primarily though
