  1. Thanks chaps 👍 I depped with a function band last weekend and had to play a tune in drop D. The drummer and guitarist’s faces lit up when they heard the punch from the Dingwall. I can see why they are so popular with 5 string players.
  2. A phenomenal instrument that has really blown me away in terms of design, build quality and tonal variation. It was hand made in Canada on 9 Mar 2015 and weighs in at a flyweight 3.5kg/7.7lb. It balances perfectly on the strap and the offset frets take little/no getting used to. Just pick it up and play as normal 🕺🏾 It’s in excellent condition and has clearly been well cared for in its short existence. It still has the original strings fitted so I’ve included a brand new set of Dingwall strings, and of course it comes with the excellent Dingwall gig bag.
  3. I recently bought a bass from Mark and it arrived extremely well packaged the next day! Total Basschat hero, thanks Mark 👍
  4. I love the first three Jamiroquai albums and find it bizarre when fellow musicians don’t share my enthusiasm. I find Zenders playing inspirational, groovy as hell and effortlessly cool. By Zender’s own admission however it was often the case that JK would sing the bass melody to him, and he would then build upon it with his own ideas. The more recent albums sound rather generic in my opinion and aren’t what Jamiroquai were originally about. Here’s Zender on a P, Derrick McKenzie laying it down, and JK hitting the high notes after (I suspect) one or two fragrant roll-ups.
  5. I recently sold a Bergantino cab to Etienne and it was a textbook Basschat transaction. Thanks mate, enjoy the cab 👍
  6. I recently purchased a bass from Pat and despite some courier issues out of our control, it was was an easy, hassle free deal. Thanks Pat 👍
  7. I’m in Margate in Kent. I can post if required.
  8. 2011 Fender USA Jazz bass including the excellent original Fender flightcase and accessories. It’s pretty light for a Jazz and has a nice low action which makes playing a breeze. The string-through bridge helps give the bass extra sustain and punch which may attribute to the awesome slap sound! The bass has been used but is in great condition overall.
  9. @Beedster look, a rig for a real man!
  10. Thanks mate. A stereo rig with two of these would be something to behold.
  11. Bergantino HD210 with the padded Bergantino cover. It doesn’t get much better than this in my opinion. The HD210 sounds incredible, is extremely loud, compact (very shallow front to back), built like a tank, easy on the eye (important!) and not too heavy. This is the second one of these I’ve had and I’m sure it won’t be the last, however I now use in-ears for most of my gigs so it’s not currently required. £425 posted within the UK
  12. 😗
  13. Price drop to £875 for this mint Sandberg.
  14. Thanks chaps 👍
  15. So that’s my VS4 out of the window then 😄
  16. So how’s everyone getting on with their FRFR setups for gigs? It seems like an interesting solution..
  17. Lakland Skyline 55-01 with the tasty additions of a Lakland USA pickguard and bone nut. It has a great neck profile and wider string spacing which makes the jump from 4 to 5 strings a breeze. The standard Bartolini pickups and preamp sound fat, and the build quality is excellent. I’m located in Margate. More pictures to follow 🕺🏾
  18. Absolutely, the build quality is extremely high, they have great attention to detail at Sandberg. There’re so many neat design ideas on these basses.
  19. Excellent monitor used for around a year in a live band before switching to in-ear monitors. It’s in good condition and works perfectly. It has various presets for monitor use, playback etc. And can be pole mounted to use as a PA top. dB Technologies Flexsys FM 12 Stage Monitor Active Coaxial 12'' Speaker 300W Digipack Technology Powerful & Assertive Full Range Monitor H.E.T Hard-Wearing Housing The dB Technologies Flexsys FM Series offers a revolution in live sound reinforcement. Comprising of tailored monitoring solutions featuring innovative technologies housed in multifunctional enclosures, the Flexsys FM range is the first choice when nothing less than the best on-stage monitoring will do.
  20. A great handmade German Sandberg weighing in at a ludicrous 7.6lb/3.45kg. It’s finished in a glorious high gloss black with optional matching headstock, Rosewood fret board and all black hardware. It’s in excellent condition and comes with the Sandberg gig bag and tools. To achieve a classic P sound, the 2 band preamp can be defeated by pulling out the volume control, which then allows the treble pot to be used as a traditional tone control. In active mode it can go from zingy slap to shake-your-teeth-out dub and everything in between. I’m after £875, bass is located in Margate.
