Well, after much deliberation, I have decided that my Dearmond Jetstar has to go


Now is gone and no longer available.

I also know very little about them, as I acquired mine used in the early 90s.
It was black originally and I have roundwounds on it. It's capable of an almighty growl!
I only use mine for recording, so don't have a problem with the weight, but if I took it out to gig, I'd be seriously considering getting a back-up.

Frankly, I'm amazed that nobody wants the Hohner.
I have one that I use in preference to my Fender, as it is just [i]so[/i] versatile. A brilliant recording bass.

Here's a neat little tape delay- very nice for getting things to sit in a mix.

Ooo- lovely!

I used to have one of those in the late 80s, early 90s. Lovely instrument. For some stupid reason I sold it for peanuts.

If you're at a loose end this afternoon, me band's on at the Maggie Bank at 4pm... [/quote]

Ah- thanks for the invite. Couldn't get though coz I was spending quality time with No.1 Son... walking in sunshine and then shooting droids, Star Wars stylee!

Well thanks for the warm welcome you chaps!

Makes a nice change to meet local types. Now, full of caffeine and lured by the gorgeous sunshine streaming through the window, I am [i]very[/i] uncharateristically going to do some gardening... which will probably involve removing a load of neighbour's cat poo!
Ah the joys of impending springtime!

A hearty welcome from me. Looks like the Basschat Tyneside Mafia's expanding rapidly![/quote]

Ah, would that it were, would that it were!
Most definitely west of the border!

[quote]I mich preferred it when it was called The Ridges...[/quote]

ah yes... of course I'm [i]much[/i] too young to remember that

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='764894' date='Mar 5 2010, 10:54 AM']Hello! Which side of the watter are you on?[/quote]

The proper side in the vicinity of North Shields!

Just saying '[b]hello[/b]' from the currently cold, windy and wet, North East coast of England, near the mouth of the Tyne.

Been registered hear for about six months, but erm, forgot!

Anyhoo, I'm a guitarist and part-time bassist. My bass playing is limited mainly to recording, so I don't have a bass rig as such.
Bass-wise I have an old Hohner Arbour PJ type (my No.1), Fender Jazz (Mexican '92-ish) and a Hohner 'violin' copy (from 1991), as well as a borrowed Deusenburg Star bass. These go straight into the PC and then into IK's Ampeg amp model.

Fave bassists: Lemmy, Bill MacCormick, Mike Howlett, Les Pattinson, Paul McCartney, Jack Casady, Geezer Butler, Colin Moulding, Steve Kilbey and probably loads more.
