TorturedSaints

Funnily enough, I was thinking of selling mine . . . although it doesn't have the snazzy Eden bag. Enjoy!

Sorry to hear that yours has got worse so quickly. I was the OP and was feeling a bit worried about it when I posted. Thankfully mine hasn't progressed at all and is still just a thickening in the palm of the hand, which isn't causing any problems for the moment. Other than sending good wishes, I can't add much to the discussion.

Same for me. Although it will be interesting to see what happens when the Barefaced Bass Amp is released 😉

Listening now. It's a lovely bass tone. Is the recording engineer who recorded the bass/guitars the (ex-IQ) drummer Andy Edwards or is it a different one? As previous posters have commented, there's something good about female Welsh vocalists - Magenta is one of my current faves as well. Anyway, a thoroughly recommended listen. Some nice modern Rush references too. I hate to mention it but surely track 3 should be titled "The Kings Are Dead" as the extra apostrophe makes it a meaningless lyric. Sorry to be a pedant.

PayPal worked fine for me. Looking forward to it.

Voted. Good job all. Get well soon Doug!

Another vote for ACG. I have a lovely J-type 5 string (which was originally built for someone else). ACG J-type 5 Different enough to be different, but not too extreme looking or sounding. If you want something a bit more non-traditional look at the Recurve or Krell basses Alan does.

I'm still in, Si. Lightweights, the lot of them!

I'm still in . . . unsubscribed from emails/FB groups etc. I was so tempted with an AGC on sale here (which has thankfully sold to someone else), but actually I think I've substituted boat refurbishment GAS for bass GAS.

Glad I signed up to this - there's a bass for sale on here that I would have had in a heartbeat . . . but I don't actually 'need' another bass and I do need money for other non-bass related rabbit holes.

I'm in. Tier 1 and Tier 2. No bass related stuff for Christmas (that's a first) - but then, I don't play in a band anymore. I don't need any more music production software as I haven't done any recording for a while.

I think I could be up for this. However, is it ok to sell stuff (without replacing it)?

I've just checked, coming Thursday!

I have the M1000 (and an M2000 too which I think has the same drivers, just open backed). I use the M1000 plugged into my Aria Sinsonido travel bass (which has a built-in preamp) and it copes with the low notes very well.

Thanks! Also available from Time + Space if you've got loyalty points to use up, but without the expansion pack. I also bought Izotope Neutron (standard edition) for a third of the price of the upgrade options from Alloy or other software.

I picked up an Aria Sinsonido travel bass to take away with me. Probably not to everyone's taste but stows away small. Not particularly cheap new, but I got mine for about £120. Mine lives in a rifle bag and has the rucksack straps on you would need to cycle to rehearsal. It's probably most suited to acoustic-sounding gigs because of the piezo pickup. Or there's always a Wing Bass - depends on the budget, and Alan at ACG is currently doing some very small/short basses to order.

Are you sure you don't write for Private Eye? If not, a whole new career beckons . . 🙂 Ralph

Wow. Seriously just wow. Only bass I have ever sold was my Shine SB24 PJ (and wish I'd never sold it). Amps I have sold Laney Richter RB3 and GK MB500. Cabs I have sold Warwick WCA410 and Peavey 410TVX. I really must try harder!

Yes, you're probably right. Just not to me! 😀

Geddy Lee of Rush is probably the most well known lead vocalist bass player. I'm sure there are others though, they just don't come to mind as easily.

I think I'm on a winner then - I pre-ordered and paid for it in February for £18.59 from Amazon. I'm pretty sure they have to honour the price!

This is one of my favourites:

There's a formula relating length of pipe, frequency of sound and speed of sound and harmonic required. (Speed of wave = frequency times wavelength in consistent units for fundamental). This page gives you a link to instructions on how to build one! https://drumsoul.wordpress.com/2016/12/28/how-to-build-a-blue-man-group-pvc-tubulum-cigar-box-nation/ I love the Blue Man Group, would love to see them live.
