Hi Keith
Likewise, I'm down your neck of the woods at the end of the month at some hotel in Ripon if that's any good.

Hi Mike
Indeed it is, the great thing about having a name like mine is no-one forgets you.
Please give the music a spin if you have time I'd love to know how you feel about it.
Cheers
Laurence
[quote name='Mike' post='382339' date='Jan 16 2009, 01:22 PM']Your name is Laurence Blackadder? That's absolutely magnificent!
If I can I will check out the CD when I have a little more time. I just read the blurb on CDBaby and nearly fell off my chair in delight when I saw your name.
I've seen your name "Bassadder" about recently and liked it very much.

Hi Alex
No problem if things were different then it might have been an option.

Hi Alex
Thanks for the kind offer but I need to re-coup my investment to pay for the restoration of my old French bass.
If you go to [url="http://cdbaby.com/cd/claudewerner"]http://cdbaby.com/cd/claudewerner[/url] you get any idea how the bass sounds
Cheers
Laurence

Hi Keith
I'll put some more up in the next couple days though it's exactly the same as the bass on the String Emporium website. The Maple on the bass is incredible lots beautiful of figure.
I'm up in Carlisle.
Cheers
Laurence

Dear All
I have a beautiful example of this model [url="http://www.stringemporium.com/bernadel.htm"]http://www.stringemporium.com/bernadel.htm[/url] and I'm testing the water to see if there is any interest in her out there. I got her in February 2008 from a lovely chap near Oxford who imported her direct from Steve at The String Emporium. I had my luthier do a full set-up, install a Fishman Full Circle and put a on a full set of Velvet Anima strings (this came to around £ 600.00). The only minor things that have been done are a couple of cracks professionally repaired on the bottom again by luthier who has re-varnished them and unless I showed them to you you wouldn't know they were there, this is very normal for double basses. I've played this bass virtually everyday since the beginning of August and have done a lot of gigs on her, the sound is really beginning to open up and she is very easy to play.
I'm not sure how much to put it for the current price of this model is $ 4950.00 which with VAT at 15% and duty at anything from 4 - 6% makes this bass around £ 4100.00 before shipping and a proper set-up, I'm not interested in trades just sensible offers over £ 2500.00.
The reason I'm selling well my old french bass (a Jacquet-Gand from around 1860 if anyone's interested) is now virtually restored and I should get her back at the end of the month so I no longer need the Wan.
Anything else the sale doesn't include a gigbag.
If you any questions just mail me

Thanks for the very kind words
Nice I had heard of that piece of kit before, we kind of used the name as a theme then based the album around it, we have some new material we been working on for the next album which is going to be called "Confessions of an Evil Genius".
Thanks again for listening.
Cheers
Laurence
