  6. Hi Guys, Re-joining after a bit of a hiatus (10 years?) as starting to play more. Originally from south america, I enjoyed playing/listening latin-funky-jazzy-rocky music currently based in West London. Have some gear that am looking to sell (Baritone guitar, pedals, etc) and looking to get some new one (eg Audio Source C4) and connect with other bass players/musicians. Look forward to interacting with any one other bass heads out there! Carlitos

  10. Hi All Long time without being here as I've been busy with my 'new' daughter (she is almost 3 now!), work and trying to play more instead of endlessly reading about basses here! I bought a NS Design just over 2 years ago as my 40th birthday treat from bass direct and has had very little use (12 times?) at home. his is bass is in great, as new condition, have even kept it in bubble wrap inside the soft case! For those of you not familiar with this bass, it sounds great, looks beautiful and is very easy to play and hence a great entry into the world of EUBs, I just don't have the time to play it and am more keen into playing the guitar for the kind of music I am making. Unfortunately for me (and luckily for you) this bass has to go as I am looking to buy a guitar (I know... ) Pictures to follow soon but it looks exactly as any other! Collection is preferred, I am based in West London W11 very near to Ladbroke Grove Station. You can come and try it. I am usually around evening and weekends. Delivery can be considered. Get in touch if you are interested. In case you have a guitar to trade I am interested in semi-hollow Gibson 339 style and will consider others. Full description of the web: [color=#584D4D][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=4] [i][color=#000000][size=3]The NXT Series Double Bass opens up a new horizon for the serious bassist looking to play a great instrument on a limited budget. These new instruments, crafted in the Czech Republic by the makers of the renowned CR Series, exemplify flawless workmanship at an incredible value.[/size][/color][/i][/size][/font][/color] [color=#584D4D][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=4] [i][color=#000000][size=3]Pizzicato and arco techniques have almost unlimited expressive potential, thanks to the Polar™ Pickup System (SEE BELOW). A convenient switch allows selection of the traditional arco mode for percussive attack and dynamic bowed response, or pizzicato mode for a smooth, sustained tone. Equipped with single volume and tone controls, the passive electronics deliver unlimited overhead for the ultimate sound without cumbersome batteries.[/size][/color][/i][/size][/font][/color] [color=#584D4D][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=4] [i][color=#000000][size=3]The solid maple body and neck, together with the graduated ebony fingerboard, deliver a rich, full tone that rings true for every note. Asymmetrical fingerboard relief facilitates an even 'growl' from the higher strings and a clear, powerful lower register. The adjustable bridge and truss rod allow for low, fast action, or for higher string settings that encourage the traditional acoustic player to 'dig in' with gusto.[/size][/color][/i][/size][/font][/color] [color=#584D4D][font=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][size=4] [i][color=#000000][size=3]NS Electric Strings and most traditional acoustic strings fit all NS Double Basses, allowing the player to select from a wide range, each with a unique sound a feel. In combination with the easy adjustment of basic set-up parameters, the NXT Series Bass is adaptable to many different styles of music.
