    I play through compact 1x12" cabs which are a miracle of portability (I can get my whole rig to a venue on the bus!!!) but man, it's lovely to plug into a big cabinet with a 1x15 driver in it...

    Probably very similar except for the preamp.

    It’s really just a small PA head in a combo. I’ve never liked the sound with keyboard as it’s really brittle and sharp but with this bass it’s epic!!!

    This is my dad’s OHM KA140 keyboard amp from the mid 80’s that he’s had since new. It’s got a nasty piezo tweeter and is quite shrill but makes for a fantastic bass amp! Really snappy and deep, very very modern and hifi. Honestly it’s one of the nicest tones I’ve achieved in years!

    That's Thotch. The biggest-selling band of the 1970's I'll have you know.

    Just sold @asha Squier Jazz body. Great communications, fast payment - a pleasure to do business. Thanks for buying!

    It just looks so ... pure! My ideal finish for any bass, I'd say.

    I've been using this body to try out stuff for a while - it's really light, 2.5kg. The pickup spacing is proper fender Jazz style so wider for the bridge pickup than the neck so you can slot anything into it. The pickups aren't wired up at the moment though. There are a couple of dents at the bottom but honestly this sounded pretty good with a neck on it, it's just surplus to requirements now so I just want the space back. Yours for £30 posted or £25 if you want to collect it from New Cross in London.

    Thanks. That’s super helpful. I have to say that I don’t get on with the EMG preamp on my combustion but I’m not really after it to be more HiFi BUT I’d love a passive tone. I could not live without the 3 pickups tho. I absolutely love the configuration.

    Oooh, tasty! When you say different beast, in what ways? I've only ever held one Canadian Dingwall and wasn't able to play it so I'd love to know...

    Oooh, must look that up!

    I've bought a couple of t-shirts from https://soundshirts.com and am very happy with them (got ASDR and TR808 ones for m'self) and got a bass one for t'other half, but this isn't quite as L as we'd hoped, would say it's on the slim side of L. Anyway, the people at soundshirts have said they're knocking up a new a bass shirt with a MusicMan 4/1 headstock so I've ordered one but they said keep this one rather than send it back. I've no use for it but since they're so nice I thought I'd give it away here! First to PM me will get it - just send me a SAE with a large stamp and it's yours!

    I have one of these. It’s quite astonishing - I can take it to go gigs and rehearsals on public transport! Glwts
  16. kwmlondon
    Well yes especially if it was returned with new strings…

    I don’t want to OWN any more basses, but I’d love to spend some with some just to find out what they were like. In an ideal world there would be an instrument library where you pay a fee and you can loan out one thing at a time.

    I have one of these. Have rehearsed and gigged with it. Can confirm they are amazing little things. GLWTS

    Disco Duck. Rubbish song but really good bass work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6bv8XTZk-I

    I don't know. Next you'll be saying Disco Duck isn't a classic...

    This. This is the picture. I saw the video of Lizzo - I think she's fantastic and her music is great. Ian Allen did a breakdown of the bassline in About Damn Time asking if it was one of the best of all time
