    La Bella now make flats that are suitable for through-body stringing.

    I didn't order a tinted neck with my VT5... didn't realise I could..... hope it doesn't look too weird with the hardcore aging!

    [quote name='alstocko' timestamp='1350312761' post='1837128'] First day of the Lakkies, great so far! [/quote] How do they compare to the La Bellas, both in terms of feel (i.e. smooth, rough to the touch?) and tension?

    I would take one if someone would buy my second NY151RJ, but sadly no takers

    Fantastic amp. I had one and wish I still did.

    [quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1350112377' post='1834623'] Very nice it is too sir! Are you going for an ash/matt or alder/highgloss body? [/quote] Hard core aged, matt on ash.

    Brilliant! I can now see what my VT5 will look like when it arrives in a month's time.

    Don't forget they've added a TT4 to the line as well now....

    Not many amps I regret selling, but my LB30 is one of them. In a word........ [size=5][b]TONE[/b][/size]

    Same experience here, but a quick play with the pots sorted it. I put Innovation Silver Slaps on the one I had, which meant I had to use piezo only, but the lower tension and improvement in tone made for a much more satisfying EUB experience!

    I'd imagine an LMII at 11 o'clock into a Schro 1212L would absolutely smoke a Cub/PB300. As I said earlier, even using the M300/6B combo I always thought it wasn't that loud, and you'd be moving a lot less air with the Cub/PB300.

    Well, this is a surprise..... Yes, I am embarrassed, but it was a pleasure to help Pete out. What he hasn't told you is he did a bit of detective work and a fresh set of La Bella flats just popped through my letter box from him this morning! Totally unnecessary but much appreciated. Cheers all Gareth

    Thanks fellas! I wonder if Overwater would do their XL strings in a flatwound? Phil, I will definitely want to try the Flyer when it rocks up! Cheers Gareth

    Hi folks The stock La Bella black nylons on my Veillette have been fitted for nearly three years and I fancy trying out something else. Only thing is, due to the unsual bridge arrangement, the strings need to have a speaking length of 38 3/4", which seems longer than anything readily available? Cheers Gareth

    Wow, just wow......

    I've played this bass and it's a cracker. We all know Dave is a pleasure to do business with too, so a "win win" in my book!

    5 weeks until my VT5 arrives......

    [quote name='phsycoandy' timestamp='1348650311' post='1816322'] Pleasure to deal with Martin again. Good comms great stuff. [/quote] Same for me. MB1 rocks the BC house!

    I'd love these, but sadly I have no spare readies and only [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/173777-fsft-veillette-archtop-fretless-5-string-bass-l1800/page__p__1813456#entry1813456"]this[/url] as trade bait

    [quote name='4 Strings' timestamp='1348868009' post='1819443'] No doubt he does the fingers as impeccably! [/quote] Indeed he does! Anyone who can play one of these has to have serious chops!

    Colour me interested

    Great cabs. All the spec is [url="http://www.markbass.it/product_detail.php?id=205"]here[/url]. Only reason I am selling is I have two, and really only need the one. Only gigged three or four times, and a similar number of rehearsals. I have taken the Markbass badge off, but it's obvisouly included in the sale. Comes with Roqsolid cover and original box. £490 couriered to your door, £475 collected from NE Hampshire. Cheers Gareth

    Soundslive and Academy of Sound often have good deals on Ashdown stuff, may be worth checking them out/getting in touch? Good BTA prices [url="http://www.soundslive.co.uk/product~name~Ashdown-BTA-300---Ex-display~ID~17452.asp"]here[/url] and [url="http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/preowned_amps_detail.asp?stock=px-EH127XF2939"]here[/url] If cabs weren't an issue as well I'd add [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/176452-peavey-vb2-all-tube-bass-amplifier/"]Peavey VB2[/url] and [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/traynor_yba200_2.htm"]Traynor YB200[/url] as other possibilities.
