Advice needed: Gigging, vaccination status and tests
E sharp replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
You see , this is just people getting stupid . As already replied - no mention about the staff . Harks back to the 'ol PAT test insistence , whilst plugging into their sh*tty in house wiring . I've been double jabbed , but don't have a smart phone , nor the little card they gave me , and then promptly lost . How would I be able to prove I've been double jabbed? In my day job , I went in a few weeks ago to fix someone's broadband . Most customers couldn't care less about all of this , but this guy went all funny about me putting on a mask - not an issue , as it's his house after all . But then he refused to put one on himself - same with his wife and kids . Give some people a tiny bit of power , and it'll go to their heads . To insist on the band being double jabbed , but then make no mention about the staff , or the guests , is just mental - in my opinion . -

It'll become the new 'PAT test' probably , where no one will check -
Advice needed: Gigging, vaccination status and tests
E sharp replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
After 18 month lay off , I've had 4 gigs in a month , and it's business as usual . Last Friday was a sort of last minute dep at a Holiday Camp , and it was heaving . I've had both jabs , and frankly , apart rumblings here on Basschat , no one I know who's out playing again , mentions anything . Everyone I know is just cracking on . -

Pedal clearout number 1 . Boss OC-2 . VGC . Unboxed , but will be packed well . £80 . SOLD Copilot Orbit . VGC . Unboxed , but will will be packed well . £120 . Now £100 - Now £50 SOLD SFX Red Dragon VGC . Unboxed , but will be packed well . £50 . Please note that I've found out that the Micro Fuzz isn't working - so this is for Red Dragon only . SOLD TC Corona micro chorus . As new ,and boxed . £50 . Now £40 Moved to new ad EHX Vintage Clone Theory . £150 . Recent advert on here mentioned that these ones with the 'edge' switch are more desirable - I've had both types , and cannot confirm this , as both types were great . Picture shows inside gubbins too . You'll just need to cut the power lead going into the unit and tidy up (see picture) . I haven't the tools to hand to do this cleanly . This works a treat , and has the really lush chorus sounds that these units are known for. Now £100 SOLD All these pedals have been tested , and working . Found out that quite a few of my pedals no longer work , so have to look into that . Also more pedals to follow . Thanks for looking

Up here is a nice little PJB combo Not had it long , and pretty much as new - still have box for it . Having a clear out , and realised that I don't really need it . Prefer a meet up with this , as had courier issues in past - anything above pedal size or cost , I like not to courier. Can travel an hour to meet up if needed . Thanks

First gig in 18 months - Friday just gone . At 52 , I've never gone so long without a gig , since I was 17 . New band start up (Northern Soul band) , with some of the people I occasionally dep with - Ska or Function band . Got a Handbox WB100 last year and really didn't like it - no punch nor enough volume . Sold my Aguilar DB751 - big mistake . So back to my trusty Eden WT400 . As I'm still waiting to sell some gear , I haven't got the fund for one of the DB751's up for sale here , so hooked up the beastly Crest CA9 , and ran the 'effects out' from the Eden head into it . Just wanted a bit more of that DB751 slam . Worked really really well . Also , first ever gig on a 5 string - my 3rd attempt now after all this time , and now can't see myself ever going back . Used the Dingwall Super P5 all night , and the Bogart was there as a back up . Bass sound was epic . Bit of a quick pic as we were setting up , so not great .

SOLD Aguilar DB751 & Gator Case - £1250
E sharp replied to mildmanofrock's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
I made the mistake selling mine over a year ago , to go the all valve route . A mistake that cost me loads of money , searching for the sound that I'd already had - in true Basschat tradition . If I could shift my bass , then I'd be on this . Weird 'ol times when stuff like this don't shift easily . -
I saw this up for sale , and lusted after it . That looks really really nice . Sort of traditional , yet unique .

NBD: SKC Bogart Blackstone (with history) owners welcome!
E sharp replied to Chris2112's topic in Bass Guitars
I'm not going to bother sending it back to Stefan as you suggested Chris , as frankly , I just can't be bothered . Sorting out shipping and the like , it'll be easier to send to someone here . There's a guy in Beccles (Suffolk) , who did some work on the silver Modulus Flea that's up for sale . So he's used to working with graphite . Probably looking at a couple of hundred to sort . Can't really move it on as it is . Once fixed , I can see myself getting rid . Shame really . -

Update on my yellow one - bit disappointed really . It was a 50th present to myself , and I played it for a few months . Action was a tad higher than I like , but the main thing was making a real effort this time on a 5 string - my third attempt . Sold loads of stuff , and got a Dingwall Super P5 , earlier this year , and it's been hands down , the best bass I've ever had - and I've a load of the years . Lowered the saddles on the Bogart , and it was choking like a good'n . Martin Booth (who I haven't had work on anything of mine for 10 years) , remembered me , and fitted me in to his busy schedule for an hour one afternoon . And this is when the disappointment came in . He took one look at it , and said the truss rod was completely slack , then showed me the end of the neck where the cap is . I'd never thought to look , but it wasn't even on straight , and he couldn't get to the truss rod, as the hole didn't match up at all . Luckily it was brass and not stainless , so he had to open the hole up by drilling bigger holes , so he could fit an allen key in there . The cap also wasn't even screwed it right , there had been some sort of matchstick hole filling going on - it didn't look good for a bass that cost me over 2 grand . He also said it needed a fret dress up as they weren't good - he didn't have the time as he's really busy , so gave me a number of someone who he gives some of his set up work to , as he's rammed busy with building , and has a massive back log . I'm struggling to see how a QC issue could happen like this , with a one man band operation . This pretty much has turned me off the whole bass , and it's sat in it's bag for months now . In hindsight , I should've spent more and gone Status - no way Rob would've let that out of his workshop . Live and learn . -
I don't think you need any feedback mate ..... That's great .
