Similar guitar style and sound on Perfect by Fairground Attraction, and also Faith by George Michael. Same bloke?

Bumping this ad. Played it this weekend on two gigs (Northern Soul and Ska), and a Function band wedding gig last weekend. It’s great for all of that, but I’m just not bonding with it, as prefer the feel of my Dingwall. So if anyone fancies a swap with a MM Stingray 5M special (plus cash from me), then get in touch. Or maybe an NS design CRM - 4 or 5 string, not concerned either way. Or perhaps a nice Aguilar DB751 as a trade- fancy one of those big boys again. Thanks

TRADED - Dingwall Super P5 PZ5 5-string P-bass

Link to the original ad is here .. Recently bought this on here to try and find a jazz bass to get on with, but have to come to the conclusion that they’re not for me - I’ve tried a Fender 4, SEI 5, Status 4, and now this Sadowsky 5. This has been the best by far, and no difference between this Japanese one, and the US ones - as the man himself said. Basically looking to get back what I paid for it (although I made a hefty drive to pick it up). 4 kgs in weight. I’m not geared up to ship this, so a pick up or meet up please. Trade wise .. MM Stingray 5 Special with H only, preferably no burst finishes. Plus cash from me. Dingwall Super P5, with cash from me Quite partial to P5’s in general, so Lakland US P5, Freedom P5, Sadowsky P5 - that sort of this. I can add money to bring up the value, if required. Thanks - Paul

Caveman Audio BP1, a very, very, very short review...
E sharp replied to bassmayhem's topic in Amps and Cabs
They should do it like I have on my Sonic Farm pre. All options are here -
I was going to post, but this is sort of exactly what I’d of written- only difference would be that ‘my’ Nan couldn’t sing for toffee. Was going to mention Glen Matlock, but wasn’t sure if I’d of been accused of talking rubbish- but he’s nowhere near the bass player needed for the groove of those Blondie songs

Yep- that Stingray sounds great. What’s nice to see is Elton also keeping the same drummer from the beginning- guitarist too. Also nice to see Ray Cooper on percussion

Generation 3 ENKI cases I believe are better with the wheel wobble- though I may be wrong. Only issue, is that some shops will have brand new MK2s still to pump out. The price for ENKIs have gone up from last year- much like everything else I suppose. I keep wondering whether to save up for one or not, and the only thing holding me back is the price

I bought a Crest CA9 years ago, after reading loads up on it. It’s mainly beloved over on Talkbass- though is very heavy. Bought it cheapish, to try out and scratch the proverbial itch. I’ve had loads of power amps over the years, and it’s absolutely great on bass. There are loads of mentions about the reasoning behind this- that it’s not a flat sound, and by a sort of quirk in the design, works well on bass guitar. I bought it with the view of being sceptical, and then moving it on, but it’s really good. The only issue is the weight, and also the fact that it’s very deep in size- meaning you have to look for a suitable rack. I found a 2U Boschma rack on their site- very heavy duty moulded plastic one. But I’m not sure that they’re still in business or not. I use it with a Sonic Farm mic pre In front of it, and sounds really good

You had one of those a few years ago didn’t you? As did I. Debating whether to get another again- they are awesome amps

Sadowsky Japanese Metro MV5 - Lightweight with VTC (5 String Jazz) - *SOLD*
E sharp replied to d_g's topic in Basses For Sale
If I could sell my bass, this is one of two that I pick from to replace it. These are great- just got a Japanese Metro R24 Modern in on a trade. Quality wise, there’s not a fag paper’s difference between the US ones. As I said before- it’s a difficult time to sell at the moment. Someone’s even started a thread about it. This bass is really as good as it gets if you’re after a 5 active Jazz. -

Caveman Audio BP1, a very, very, very short review...
E sharp replied to bassmayhem's topic in Amps and Cabs
Same here. Ive been running- bass into small board with SFX 2 band EQ, compressor, Sonic Farm, then power amp and speakers- lovely sound, with hardly any EQ. The Caveman has been on my radar, but unsure if to spend the money on something that might not make a lot of difference. The bass pre-amp rabbit hole you can go down is massive, if you had the funds -
Northern Soul Classic but ?Dodgy Bassline?
E sharp replied to Mykesbass's topic in General Discussion
I play in a Northern Soul band, and this is one of the ones right near the end. I mix about with the line a bit, as you do, and it always goes down well -
Rob is great- I love his playing. Came from good stock too. Also echo what’s been said about- so inventive with his playing

Just seen on Facebook, that he was Robin Malarkey’s father. He’s another awesome player
