I bought a bass from David this week, it's been great dealing with him. He kindly slung the bass with flat and roundwounds to make sound clips when I was interested, and packed it and arranged delivery exactly as I'd hoped. It was great to chat music with him too, a lovely bloke.

Just bought an Empress compressor from Bruce. Arrived quickly in immaculate condition as advertised, an ideal transaction. Cheers Bruce!

Might make an offer of a tenner, just to counterbalance the cheek of it 💸

Thank you @obbm!

Hey folks. I need someone with tip top electrical knowledge. I have a custom Stambaugh bass I had made a few years back. Gorgeous construction, but the electronics are complicated (4 band, piezo and a graphtech midi system all fighting for space) and I’ve had problems with it. Unwanted noise, batteries draining, all sorts. Something’s awry in there somewhere. I’m in Devon, any recommendations for experts in the South West much appreciated. Thanks!

I had the pleasure of playing with Elliot Randall many years ago. Bloody lovely and (of course) a wonderful player! I’ve been rediscovering my love of Pat Metheny’s earlier work. James is such an incredible tune.

I have a fretted and a fretless ubass, they sound excellent amplified. As others have mentioned, the very short scale takes some getting used to, the standard strings too. They’re both extremely bendy and quite sticky. I found I developed a feel for them pretty quickly though, and I have a blast playing them.

Seems most folks either want Scott to dull it down, or expect him to make the greatest fusion record ever. I think what he’s doing is pretty great and I hope he gets more young people into fusion, that would be cool.

Mick helped facilitate a recent sale in tricky circumstances. As others here have said, he’s a gent and clearly a great pal to have. Cheers Mick
