  1. Dropbox is an excellent file sharing app to use between band members etc... not really for full public access. Soundcloud is superb, even if it is Flash based and bit glitchy at times. You can specify if files are downloadable or not, or play only. People can leave comments as well. There is also an excellent iPod app to view Soundcloud content and it works really well. Also, if you use any of the field recording apps on an iPod or iPhone such as Fire, you can upload direct to Souncloud accounts from the app.

  3. Bump... surely someone must be interested in this? Especially with a saving of nearly a 100 noughts, complete with gig bag and full leather Fender strap!
  4. Badass bridges are very good, but I do feel you're paying for the name as much as anything else. There are bridges of equally good construction and performance at a fraction of the cost of a Badass, look at Gotoh bridges for example. There are those who feel that higher mass bridges are just a clever marketing gimmick and at the end of the day, don't really add all that much to your sound. I had a Badass II bridge, and to be honest, heard no difference really in tone. But, at the end of the day, it's horses for courses and if you feel it works for you then that's cool. They do add a certain 'cool' factor to a bass I guess!
  5. My newly acquired Tanglewood TEB-12, has a 30" scale length and nice woody/humbucker tone to it. Bought for the princely sum of £99
  6. All PM's replied too... a possible sale in the pipeline, but it is still available.

  8. Welcome to BC... If you're covering Nirvana type stuff, then perhaps a solid bodied instrument would suit your needs better. Have a scout around the sale section of the forum, there's always plenty of bargains to be had and everyone is super friendly and helpful. I for one, am selling a cheap as chips [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=86203&st=0&p=822089&#entry822089"]Shine Violin Bass[/url] for £65! But, it might not be what you need. Give us a shout if it is Enjoy BC...

  11. I'd forgotten about these, and was thinking about a strap lock system for a semi acoustic bass I've just bought, and these would be perfect. Very simple, also very quiet when using them. I find other systems on such basses can clatter about too much. Nice shout out. Cheers.
  12. Agreed, of try and make me feel guilty in some case. However, I do operate a one in, one out policy on basses, so I still have two . Strung it up with some Rotosound blacks and it has a nice earthy, woody tone. The neck is very nice too, very P-bass ish, while the short scale makes for very comfortable playing. Doesn't suffer neck dive either. However, there is very little info about these online, so if someone could chip in with some, that would be great.
  13. Pictures as promised and an early morning bump:
  14. So far so good, she's not said anything Just cleaning up the bass now, shining up nicely. Just a fret polish to perform, and install a new set of Rotosound Blacks... lovely

  16. Yeah, it's semi acoustic and quite well balanced. The tone was excellent, and that big humbucker pickup is very fat! The F holes can be found on most acoustic instrument and help in sound projection (mostly) - not that you'll get much with a bass like this.
  17. Bought a Shine Violin Bass of Tom1946 about 6(?) weeks ago on here, and it's now no longer needed as I've sourced a bass more to my requirements. The Shine Violin bass is a superb instrument, and is capable of a lot of tones, more so than you'd believe from such a small hollowed bodied instrument - not just your typical Beatles vibe. The bass is in mint condition and is nicely finished for a budget instrument, and comes complete with an Italia gig bag (full scale - worth a bit in its own right). The bass, for all intents and purposes is just like new, and I'm looking to recoup the cost of it, which was a very respectable £65 collected, or £80 posted using my works courier (so fully insured etc) - I believe the bass retails new for about £165 ish, so a very good saving. I'll upload some pictures when I get back from work. Here's a stock image to be getting on with: PM me if you're interested. No trades please, I'm now GAS free
