BassAgent

I think if you start walking tomorrow, you might just make it in time.

I'll be there for sure! I've booked my flight. Will be there on Saturday only, my girlfriend is coming along but has plans on Sunday. I'll probably hang out at the TecAmp stand mostly

The choice has been made.

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1450294222' post='2931497'] I,m hopeful it wasnt Wunjo's in Denmark St. They are highly praised on here for their friendly staff and top notch customer service. [/quote] I was there when I was in London for the Bass Show last March, and I can confirm this. Great guys that know their stuff. If you're ever in The Netherlands, be sure to visit Dirk Witte. I bought a guitar from them recently and the staff is great, they have good gear (for bass, acoustic and electric guitar) and are very willing to order something for you even if you're not planning to buy anything. I told the guitar guy what I was looking for, and as I was testing two guitars he brought me three more "because I thought you'll like 'em". My fav store so far.

Olympic White is not on the list, and that's mainly because I already have 2 basses in that colour and there are a CAR and Sonic Blue Jazzmaster on the way for me

In addition to my Epiphone Dot (which is a fantastic guitar for the money) I've ordered a Squier Jazzmaster, mainly for my reggae band but also just for fun Well, actually I've ordered two. I couldn't decide on the colour, so in a few days a Candy Apple Red and a Sonic Blue guitar will be ready for me at the local guitar shop and I can choose I like 'em both equally, but which one do you prefer?

So I did these gigs with an evening of music by Madness & The Specials. I've loved this music for a few years now but it wasn't until these gigs that I've started to love the bass parts. Genius playing by Mark Bedford (Madness) and Horace Panter (The Specials)... So I decided to put a cover together of some of my fav bass parts. I wonder what yours are Bass used is my 1972 Fender Precision. [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D72RIHwcIdI"]http://www.youtube....h?v=D72RIHwcIdI[/url]

[quote name='Doctor J' timestamp='1450229384' post='2930840'] I really like that Blade. [/quote] Thanks! So do I. I've had this bass for over 10 years now. I don't use it much, but every time I do I rediscover its awesomeness. One of the best necks I know. I have installed new pickups (Nordstrand) and a new preamp (Aguilar OBP-1) though, which makes the sound a lot better

I currently own a Radial Bassbone (first generation) which is a really good preamp. The DI sounds good, the EQ is fine and the channel switch is a really useful feature. But there are só many options I don't use in the pedal, I'm looking for something different. But which pedal to choose? Aguilar Tonehammer? EBS MicroBass (which has many many knobs as well)? MXR? I don't know... The features I need: -A boost function -A simple EQ -Maybe a subtle overdrive but that's not a must-have for me. Any opinions?

That would make my bass a 1914 Fender...

[quote name='iiipopes' timestamp='1449170703' post='2921316'] No. Here's what the marks mean: "7" is the day, "Jan" is the month, "66" is the year (all when the neck was made), "A" is the 1 1/2 inch nut width, circle-12 is the QC mark [url="http://www.bestbassgear.com/ebass/article/demystifying-fender-neck-sizes-based-on-letter-designations.html"]http://www.bestbassg...signations.html[/url] [/quote] I knew about all the other marks, but the "14" is still a mystery to me. Is that QC as well?

[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] So I have this gorgeous and fantastic 1966 Jazz Bass.[/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] I understand everything about that bass, except for one thing: the neck stamp:[/font][/color][color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] [/font][/color] [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,] I know the 7 stands for a Jazz Bass neck, Jan 66 explains itself and A is the neck width. But what is that little "14" for? The employee?[/font][/color]

So this is a band I wanted to have for a looooong time. And here it is. The EP is called "Memories of a Long Forgotten Kingdom", check it out on [url="https://open.spotify.com/album/5yFRvzAfy6djZAbgKv892B"]Spotify[/url]! And we've made a video for the single "The Pact": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-e_XIEpYGY

I sold the Road Worn Fender and bought a Lakland Bob Glaub yesterday. It's pretty cool if you ask me.

That would be great! It was Paul's phone BTW

I hope I can make it again this year, it was a blast to be there ánd to be back in London again. I love that city. And last year was pretty darn awesome. I do hope I can get a more decent place to sleep though. The hostel was fine but I was in a room with 6 snoring Japanese guys. So if anyone has a spare bed...

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1441538875' post='2859573'] Amazing how due to the different colour schemes, the RW looks bigger. [/quote] Well, what might also "help" is the fact that the neck of the RW is a lot wider than the '72. The '72 has a very small neck. Lovely.

Boy, that is a pretty Sadowsky...

[quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1433832850' post='2794259'] In theory, these are the same colour. [/quote] And then there were three. Don't have 'em on one photo but here's the third. 1972.

[quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1440162606' post='2848756'] Check out my fresh recording rig: [/quote] And when it has to be LOUD:

I bought this beauty yesterday. '72, needed a setup but after I gave her one and with fresh Ernie Ball strings, she sounds and plays like a dream. What a bass. Amazing. [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,][/font][/color] So now I have 2 Precisions, Road Worn 50's P and the new '72. [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,][/font][/color]

Nah, that doesn't bother me at all. I do have some other options though, so might be checking those out first.
