  1. Happy to listen to offers on this as I’ve no intent on fitting it to anything and I have nowhere to store it. Would entertain trades on a pedal, fresh sets of strings etc. Fanks xxx
  2. It’s not improving the more I think about it. I was genuinely accused of being “aggressive” today…because I didn’t understand why I was accosted for unplugging a 3 plug adapter (not in use) so I could plug my extension lead in. still reeling over it.
  3. Waste of time today. everyone knackered, 9.30 on a Saturday, rushing as drummer had somewhere to be. All grumpy and ready to misinterpret one another: we played shite, absolute waste of time.
  4. In all honesty, it’s a lot of messing about when there are other pre-made cabs that do that job… I don’t like pissing about with speaker cabs and amps. if it’s not doing what I’m after, just sell and move on. To be fair - I like these orange cabs. so I might just find another cab for the other band with a tweeter and crack on.
  5. Gone…this arrives Monday/Tuesday so if you want this LP it’ll be at Bass Bros.
  6. Stingray 5 in Honeyburst… Or a D-Roc. No Yamaha on the horizon
  7. So this is the “I’ll not sell this one” bass. It sounds perfect, quite modern and crisp…not vintage plummy Gibson. Does an MTD’ish style, seems to pull musicman sounds but will do vintage stuff, Ace, Mahogany Set neck, Mahogany Body, Beautiful flamed Maple Lid…Schaller Hardware, Bartolini Electronics… Original Case and Gibson paperwork (one latch not functioning) I will include the knobs it came with - seem to be very heavy duty, and the Gibson speed knobs I’ve bought to get it back to factory. 34” scale, ebony board: new battery recent GHS flea strings - very low action… Some small marks, nothing at “ding” level. Specific trades… Musicman Stingray 5 - Honeyburst/white pickup preferred Dingwall D-Roc/NG 5 string: if this doesn’t sell…no hardship, but I need a 5 for the band I’m using it for…and the ripper and Jack Casady’s do the other band.
  8. Starting to look at SR5’s again…Bump
  9. £115 posted in UK
  10. There’s one where you can see the body next to it. It’s that one…goosed.
  11. Bought this last week, I don’t really know what was in my head as it would involve either butchering my old faithful Jazz…which I’m not going to do…or buying a new jazz which I really don’t want to do. there isn’t enough space in the cavity to fit a battery and I don’t want to rout the back of the bass. It’s come from Phill Mann’s overwater bass, and seeing how I love my Bartolini equipped Gibson I probably thought I’d shove it in my Jazz and be happy. But I hadn’t really thought about what I was doing when I messaged him and bought it. He kindly included some knobs and a jazz bell plate. You’ll need to solder a jack on and the battery clip - all diagrams included. If you’re adding to a jazz, it’ll need to be an edge mount jack socket. Would be a mega upgrade to any Sire bass, or a Fender Marcus Miller model, possibly Sadowsky Metro? I suspect there’s enough meat on the cables for it to be off the bell plate and be retrofitted to any 4 pot setup. Price includes shipping in the UK.
  12. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/306232343113?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=KG610pbeQ-G&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=CbjbH9mRThK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY States it’s an old bb300 its an early 1990’s bb300 neck and a 2000’s bb414 body. no hardware, looks like a fudged truss Rod repair and a cracked body… £100? anyone? No?
  13. Got this today… After much faffing…there isn’t enough space on the rear of the Ripper headstock to fit it - didn’t even think as it’s a massive frigging paddle of a thing… I haven’t fitted it…I swapped with another basschatter who needed a different drop tuner id also bought in error/haste… Ah well. Lesson learned: Rippers don’t allow drop tuner fitting 🤣 This is the Musicman style one - I believe in Nickel.
  14. I’ve found the sound…it’s exactly what I remember it to be - I’m sure there are 100’s of “better” pedals for this job… but it’s for 40 seconds of an intro and 40 seconds of an outro and it’s PERFECT for that. Had a bit of a mess about with it and it does have some genuinely useful sounds in there. It will live in the studio and be pulled out occasionally. Happy days.
  15. so Fiasco Jam went well - shook the ring rust, did 15 songs…only 3 took a second run. I think that shows that all the work we’d done in 2024 was worth it. Hopefully album starts in the next month. did another “just bodies” tonight. New song called “Shadows” which was sent to me and drummer this morning was learned during the day - really awkward downstroke strumming pattern (not my comfort zone…) but we definitely got it near to “right” after 4 plays through, just listening back to it now.
  16. Ballsed up. Bought the wrong one. i need a BT-1 (short Key) happy to do a straight swap even if yours is tatty (it’s for a 50 year old Gibson) this would work for a JMJ or similar. Bought off facebook and delivered today; it’s brand new. £70 plus postage in UK
  17. No it was a weird ambience thing. Thinking on…it may have been the red (guitar) version…
