Have you tried a Thein BBb? I was offered a Miraphone. Read lots of stuff on contras, and I think in this day and age, F is definitely the way forward. More contra players use an F contra, and know a few people who tried BBb's and moved to F's. I've heard they're quite unwieldly and hard to play, with more of a tuba-ish tone. Not practical for modern day use. An F has more of a trombone-ish tone, just the right amount of core, but still a fat sound. They're also more suited in pitch to playing modern repertoire, register etc. Usually i'm a 'bigger is better' kinda guy, so would've gone for a BBb.. but the fact that most of the contra players I know in the world primarily use an F, is good enough reason for me to go for an F. Check out this... Christian on contra with the Philarharmonia. Superb! [b][url="http://www.vimeo.com/16993477"][color=#3b5998]http://vimeo.com/16993477[/color][/url][/b] Very, very excited about getting it!! The Thein guys make stunning instruments, and are really nice people too! Can't wait to get it!! Spent some time on a Rath actually, college has an R90. Very nice, beautifully built instrument, but not for me. I know loads swear by Raths, but I really don't click with them. So many guys at college lately have switched from Raths to other horns. It seems they're not so in favour at the moment. Look around the tenors at college, and theres about 14 88H's. Only 2 Raths out of 20 of us. I use an Edwards bass, and love it. Will let you know how it goes...can't wait!! Thanks for the kind words btw!

Cheers Rich! Much appreciated, thank you I have a Korg DTR2000, FCW 3U shallow Rack, and Rhino 4U shockmount rackcase too. Interested in partial trades for a small class D, Markbass F1, SWR Headlite etc? Huge thanks, Matt

PMed you mate. BUMP any other interest?

BUMP! Interested in part exchange for smaller, class D heads and similar.

Ahh.. PM's must be playing up. It says you left the conversation, and didn't see a reply... No worries anyway. Good luck with the sale!! If I get a straight sale on the EBS, I may be back...

Hi mate, did my PM not interested? Cheers, Matt

Possibly tempted by partial trades. Another fretless, or an old Jazz of some sort. Or a Bergantino 2x10! Just need to get some money back from it, that's all... needs must, big trombone on order.

Really not sure i'm afraid. I'd guess 18Kg. Just pulled that figure out of my head. Not that light, though I guess its a standard sleeved flightcase weight..? I will be home this weekend, and will weigh it. Will try and find out sooner! Apologies for the delay!

Hi there, 34" scale. Not sure on the weight. Not excessively heavy imo. Yep, I will be about on Friday, then Monday. I'm in Blackpool tomorrow. PM me and we could work something out! All the best, Matt

Just had a glance at the FCW website. I recall it being 30cm deep, which is 11.8". I can take some photos tomorrow.

Much appreciated Marc! Thanks! I hope I don't have to sell the bass. I'm really still getting into it, and loving every second of it. Just have to prioritise things I guess. If things work out, then I shouldn't have to.. Only selling if theres real interest. If someone is interested, please PM me to work something out! Oh.. Wednesday. Lottery. That may be the answer!!!
