  1. I think every bass i've had has had a deadspot to some degree of severity. It's inevitable..
  2. Good price on this - had the 4 string version and is well worth the cash.
  3. The Sandberg Basic I tried felt quite similar to a Stingray - certainly has the same specs. I rate them highly..
  4. I have some samples.. will upload later if I remember :wacko:.
  5. Flatwounds all the way - D'Addario Chromes are my personal recommendation.
  6. Like this, right ? [url="http://www.stringsandthings.co.uk/spec_sray4_2pu.htm"]http://www.stringsandthings.co.uk/spec_sray4_2pu.htm[/url] They're available as H/HS/HH - you'd need to order one through a dealer.
  7. Sorry, only ped gets to see my tongue nowadays.
  8. [b]John Myung[/b] - Fantastic chops and very modest with it - compliments Dream Theater wonderfully. [b]Steve Harris[/b] - Does all it needs to make the songs sound great, dosn't go over the top. [b]Marcus Miller[/b] - Amazing groover and all around down-to-earth chap, saw him live and he blew me away. [b]Trip Wamsley[/b] - Completely under-rated solo bassist who would put a few famous names to shame, worth checking out. [b]Jason Newstead[/b] - Made me want to play bass, just enjoys(ed) what he did and wasn't fussed about being flashy.
  9. This pic looks a bit better than the vid. [attachment=469:DSC00808.JPG]
  10. You could hear it !?!?
  11. Hah - it was the encore song and I'd got quite bored of it by that point.. 7 mins.. pffft
  12. Only ordered from them once - they are never in a rush.. The orders go to napper in Manchester - he then gets the store in London to package them up and send them off.
  13. Nice gear line up - get some pics up in Bass Porn .

    *edit*

    A natural finish on the Bongo does help a bit in masking it's shape, I like.
  16. It was a Yamaha RBX775 actually ! Defretting is indeed a piece of cake, making it a tidy affair however - is the hard bit. If you want it to look super neat and professional - i'd get a professional to do it. If you just want something to knock about and try out fretless - save the cash and do it yourself.
  17. 7 for me .
  18. There's one here too - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=111"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=111[/url] Do you agree with the sentiment ? These things are lovely looking..
  19. £15 - i'd imagine since it's in a bigger place the number of tickets won't be a problem.
  20. Super Gary - when do we get a line up ? .

    avatar problems

    Pressing Ctrl+F5 will refresh from the server - that will solve your problem. It is a local browser issue not the forum .
  22. Snare traps ? :ph34r:
  23. I think no musician is ever really content with themselves. I find i'm always raising the bar on what I should be able to and what I aspire to play. 4 years ago I wouldn't have dreamt of playing some of the stuff we do due to it being beyond my ability at the time - now it just seems the norm. If I suddenly thought I was 'good enough' to not want to improve i'd probably sell all my gear and start playing golf. :wacko:
  24. Due to the impending date - consider this stickied.
  25. If you love the bass then I think you should modify it, you wouldn't want to sell it then get something else you don't get on with.
