  1. I've gone through the same process and tried lots of variations of string brand and type and found the DR Hi-Beams to be the lowest tension strings I could find. They also sound superb to me.
  2. Bas purchased my Vanderkley cabinet and his great communications and enthusiasm made the entire process a pleasure. He has great knowledge about bass and I really enjoyed our email exchanges.
  3. I have bought several items from Bass Direct over the years through their website. I love the fact that there is a shop specialising in the needs of bass players run by someone who is passionate about bass. I emailed them yesterday to discuss ordering a left handed 6 stringer and had an email conversation with Mark in the evening to identify my requirements. First thing this morning he had sourced one with the bonus it is in my preferred finish. This might not be a big deal for all you right handers but we leftys rarely have this sort of luck. I phoned Mark this morning to seal the deal and we had a great conversation about bass playing and the evolution of gear over the years. John
  4. Twenty nine years together. We have been through a few rough patches but are just as happy as the day we first met. [url="https://flic.kr/p/TZseLN"][/url][url="https://flic.kr/p/TZseLN"]IMG_2022[/url]
  5. Have a bump on me. I have seen the photos and the bass is in great condition. I only passed on purchasing due to some unexpected bills this month.
  6. Saw them support Rush on the Hemispheres tour and thought they were superb.
  7. Hi, Now sold. Thanks for your interest. £525 including UK delivery. I am selling my Vanderkley 210MNT 8 Ohm version with the Vanderkley padded cover. I have only gigged 3 times with this since I bought it. I hardly gig these days and am planning to purchase the new Genzler combo to give me a small and light rig for the few occasions I do play. It has been my pride and joy and is in pristine condition. I live in Glasgow and demoing and collection in person are welcomed. [url="https://flic.kr/p/TeCAoA"][/url] Here are the specs:[list] [*][b]Model:[/b] 210MNT [i]neolite[/i] [*][b]Configuration:[/b] 2x10” Neodymium drivers + tweeter [*][b]Power:[/b] 600 Watts AES* [*]*2 Hours test according to AES 2-1984 Rev. 2003 [*][b]Impedance:[/b] 8 Ohm [*][b]Freq. response:[/b] 45 Hz – 16 kHz [*][b]Sensitivity:[/b] 100 dB 1W @ 1m [*][b]Dimensions:[/b] H x W x D, 50 cm x 50 cm x 41 cm [*][b]Weight:[/b] 17 Kg / 37 lbs [/list]
  8. Sounds interesting. Can you give a summary of the general condition?
  9. It looks stunning and expensive. Lovely work.
  10. SOLD. Hi All, For Sale: Darkglass Microtubes M900 - £700 including delivery within the UK. I am putting my Darkglass Microtubes M900 up for sale. It is in pristine condition having only been gigged twice. It comes with all the original packaging and the pedal. I am selling because I don't expect to gig again for a long time and it is simply too powerful for home use. Even with the impedance set to 2 ohms I can barely touch the volume control without it being far too loud for home use. [url="https://flic.kr/p/NfrgJi"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/NcjHTf"][/url]
  11. I can't stop looking at this. What year is it?
  12. Aargh. I was really hoping this was sold as I don't need it but like the look of it.
  13. Lovely Steinberger. My lefty holy grail bass.
  14. Thanks I have dropped a mail to Paul. The bass has just recently come back from him after a refurbish. I could kick myself for not considering this option at the time.
  15. Hi, I have an upcoming gig with a number of songs which require a drop D. I have a 4 string Wal MkI and am considering fitting a Hipshot Bass Xtender. Can anyone advise which version will fit a Wal? Thanks John
  16. The fusion bag looks superb. I wish I'd bought that now.
  17. I have just ordered a Skeleton case PS37-30 for £45 including delivery for my M900. [url="https://www.djsuperstore.com/product/skeletoncase-ps37-30-small-pickfoam-prostyle-universal-flight-case.html"]https://www.djsupers...light-case.html[/url]
  18. I saw it in the flesh during the week and it has the mojo.
  19. I chose birdseye for my recent body rebuild. It looks fabulous with the old black poly neck.
