Did you miss Habitat's new 'Bass Furniture' range All joking aside, listing these two here as despite them being a rather elegant piece of storage furniture in their own right, I used them in my studio for years as both seating and instrument storage..... As you can see, a rather elegant solution for the multibass owner, and one that allow you, if you're clever, to keep the true number of basses at home something of a secret 🤔 Having something of a studio clear-out at present hence the sale Stock photo here, I'll get photos of the actual units up later today/tomorrow. £300 each. These will be collection only from Whitstable or delivery if I happen to be going your way 👍

Or…… …buy the one that looks best and learn to play it 👍

I'm going to rehearse this bass tomorrow evening so can give some better feedback afterwards, although I'm starting to fall just a little bit in love with it already to be honest, the action goes stupidly low and given the is very smooth and solid it rather feels like I'm playing a Modulus or Status 🤔

Splitter 😁

Ha, almost twins..... This had Warmoth Precision neck, beautiful 👍

I've used Jazzes with Precision necks, simply prefer a Jazz configured that way, as was my main fretless for 3-4 years. I really don't understand why some folks seem to thing it's an aberration 👍

This is a bitsa that came together recently and was up for sale in the rather overlong and complex parts sale. Late 70's/early 80's Daion body with a stunning 3tsb, Warmoth maple cap neck, pictured with a Squier circuit but I'm going to install an EMG Geezer PUP and circuit which will to all intents mean nothing will change looks-wise (EMG is also creme). You might notice there's a couple of screws missing, I'll of course sort those! I'll also include PUP and bridge ashtrays. I'll update with detailed photos later today. Courier or collection from Whitstable are both fine by me 👍

I'm having a clear-out of gear I either don't use or don't use very well, these mics fall into the latter category. By 'don't use well' I mean that while I use them for voice recording, I don't really use the modelling functionality, and while these are stunning mics in pure hardware and functionality terms, a pair of SM7-Bs also work just as well for my needs. I've owned these since 2022 and they've had mostly spoken word use in that time. I bought them having already used UAD hardware and plug-ins (UAD subsequently bought Townsend Labs and these are now branded the UAD Sphere DLX https://www.uaudio.com/products/ua-sphere-dlx-modeling-microphone?srsltid=AfmBOorgjZ5kwOqTV-2uCtMPcc25_I2vJglALwqt2tpzagSQOZNPbLyK). Having read this review https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/townsend-labs-sphere-l22 I was really excited at being able to modify mic models/orientation in post-production. But to be honest, I've never really needed to, and barely have the time to record these days, let alone to spend hours playing around with different mics afterwards. But I suspect that in a Pro or Semi-Pro studio these, and the software that comes with them, could be a gamechanger. Included with each mic is the shock-mount, cable, mic stand adapter, soft case, and hard case. I'll get some more pics up later. They retailed around £1450 each and sell used on eBay at between £800-900 so at £750 these are competitively priced, if you wanted them both I'm happy to haggle. Happy to courier or for collection/meet-up I'm also going to be moving on a few more items of studio gear that isn't getting enough use to justify staying

What do you do when your music career is over?
Beedster replied to NancyJohnson's topic in General Discussion
Hugh McDowell, who was the other ELO cellist of that era, taught on my Electronic Music Technology course in the early 80's -
Nothing worse than doing a few rehearsals with a new band, things trundling along quite nicely, and then out of nowhere comes the racist comment/joke and you're the only one not agreeing/laughing......

If it were me I'd remove myself from the WhatsApp group ASAP and put it all behind me, negative response or lack of response will only drag things out longer. Contact the singer and ask the question, and then move on either with or without her 👍

Has anyone actually ordered a Fender Mod Shop instrument?
Beedster replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in Bass Guitars
Yep, 100% true Also suspect they're going to be harder than standard instruments to move on when we (inevitably) decide to do so -
Sorry to hear this @solo4652, sounds like you're well out of it, although that's not a lot of help I know. I'm starting to understand why band members choose to own the PA or the van, reduces the chances of this shit happening.....

Help: running two cabs when there aren't enough sockets......?
Beedster replied to Beedster's topic in Repairs and Technical
Steve @Steve Browning and Dave @obbm, thank you so much 🙏 -
That sounds more like a confidence issues than a competence issue?

Or..... 1. That bloke out of Foo Fighters 2. That bloke out of Nirvana 3. That bloke out of Blink 182 4. That girl out of White Stripes 5. That Muppet
