I found an unmarked, as new, Radial J48 DI for £70.

I use a 4ohm 104HF and I love it. Can't really comment on the weight as, coz I'm a tool, I have it flightcased!

It's definitely on the groove workshop DVD but here's the same lesson with the great Adam Nitti http://youtu.be/0wiV5iFPfIs

The import duty in a bass is currently 3.7% and VAT 20% so I think it was about £140 in total. Even after I bought a case for shipping AND the shipping and charges, the K6 came in around £700.

Yep, I have a K6 and I love it. Mine was plek'd before it shipped and so it plays like butter and has a fantastic range of tones. Amazing instrument for the money.

Jeff Stewart (Reg Hollis from The Bill) played percussion in my band for a while. He even came to Switzerland for a stint we did out there and claimed at the time that it was a 'life-changing experience.'

I know it's not on your list but I've got one of these and it's fantastic!! Bass Mods K6 http://www.bassmods.com/6-String_c_27.html

I have 2 OW customs, a J5 and a PJ5 and they are simply the best instruments I've ever played. I've had a great relationship with OW since 2006 and whilst I will always have a yearning for something super high end (Fodera AJ) I really can't see me going anywhere else for my bass needs. I also have 2 Fender J4's and a Bass Mods K6 and they are all great instruments but the Overwaters are always my go-to basses.

A spank?

I've got that too.... I really didn't wanna like the instrumental 'ain't no stoppin us now but I'm actually loving it. Smoooth!

Obviously your name, maybe a photo or logo and a few words about what you do... Bass player Lessons, sessions and performance etc. Then whatever contact details you want to share, such as mobile number and email address. Unless you have a business premises, don't put a postal address but do put a website or links to facebook/twitter pages. Vista print do decent cards and you can use one of their templates or upload your own.

[quote name='chaypup' timestamp='1397055636' post='2420208'] You're PLAYING with Archie Drell? Wow! Tighten up is such a nice track to play! [/quote] I am and yes it is! Played with him at the Indigo2 back in November and also doing a Northern Soul Weekender in Skegness in September. It's a dream gig!

I'll see them at The Southport Weekender in May. I'm there with Archie Bell & The Drells.

I'm musical director for a 40 piece choir in Southampton, backed by a live band. The arrangements are good and the song choices are varied. Go for it, it's fun!! http://youtu.be/P_kzTS5i618

[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1395590391' post='2404066'] Anybody go to the Wembley arena gig in the early 80's ? Truly outrageous gig, with David Sanborn band supporting. Silly amount of talent on show, including..... Marcus Miller, Nate East, Steve Gadd, Ricky Lawson, Hiram Bullock, Greg Phillinganes, and a few other others. [/quote] Yep, I was there. My father was a jazz trumpet player so this was part of my education aged 12!!

[quote name='titchfieldrelic' timestamp='1395703055' post='2405418'] Our band was formed when we were at King Alfred's College in Winchester from 1968 to 1971. We now live in different parts of the South. When we reformed six years ago, we decided to meet monthly and rehearse on a cyclical basis in the areas where we live, so we have visited various studios in Hampshire, Surrey, Essex and Cambridgeshire. I have to say most are scruffy, ramshackle and dirty. The general standard is poor. It's not unusual to find a tide-mark on my shoes after a vist to the toilet! Why is it that so many studios offer so little in the way of cleanliness, comfort, space and amenity? The only studio we have found where the whole experience is really excellent is Blue Shed in Soham. [/quote] We're clean!! Come and see us in Southampton....
