SVT/ Thunder ridge double bass bins!
-
Thank you to everyone for their nice comments on this bass! It's got to go, but it'll make someone very happy, and maybe a few years down the line they could make some money on it, definitely wont lose anything! -
LOLLERSKATES!

Swap? mine is a year younger but has higher quality pictures!
-
There's something wrong with me!, I saw the pics of yours and thought ''I wanna get me one of them'' Ha ha!

Thanks everybody! The wood certainly is very very pretty, but like I said, it's needless for me and will inevitably gather dust while my nice jazz and precision get a thrashing! Cheers

I bought this lovely thing a while back as I've always wanted one, and for all of my playing years I've been a Jazz and now a Precision man, and it's not one of them, quite obvious really, couldn't help myself though, you know how it is! I have no use for its sound playing wise (I play a lot of classic soul for money), so I'd like some money to fund another one of those nasty smelly, grotty old Fenders. Foam mutes still intact and working beautifully, shockingly nice looking wood all round, lovely ''Birdseye'' maple, incredible condition for it's age (almost 20 now!, vintage?), I would imagine ones like this are pretty rare and are likely to increase in value if anything. This thing's strings are still pretty fresh to be honest, the sound is as you would expect, it sounds just like a Stingray should to me! There's one 1cm-ish scratch which I couldn't get a decent enough photo of, as it has been quite well filled with something. Welcome to come see it in Bristol, I'd like something around the £820 mark. Will provide a Warwick rock case,not bad condition and covered in stickers and will protect it just fine. As always, any questions you can get me on 07772703515 or Pm I up!

Well I left him an email but nothing as of yet, thanks for the tips though!

Still looking on this one guys, I know it's not strictly bass related but I can't find a trumpet person anywhere! Gah!

Gurt prop'r sawl band! I've started a ''play it like it's meant to be played'' Soul Review in Bristol (yes i have a Pbass, a hook and some foam!). ...with some really, really good musicians, we have a complete line up except for trumpet and we're already sounding great, I've almost exhausted all of my avenues, all the trumpeteers I know are busy or lazy! We will be looking to gig asap and have agents etc interested, this is intended to be a gurt prop'r money maker as well as a rite laff! If any of you guys would like to fwd this to any parpy parpy mates you've got that'd be excellent! Ta Jay jay249 at hotmail co uk 07772703515

Very sneaky!

It is funny how people do this, it really is.

'Swapped with another pro', dude, pro's are higher beings.

I feel that people are reading way too far into this, it's just a joke it's not going to end or harm his career- and he's said to find it funny himself anyway, it's worrying that someone has the time to make something like this, but it's only a joke, jeez.

I love it, brill

This is true, but I'll admit to untrained and uninformed ears (not you Jono) it can sound like a bit of a magic switch, but you lose a hell of a lot of presence in a live mix, especially, if the mids dissappear.

D'oh!

It's a mid scoop, I don't like them myself, the flat sound works absolutely fine, it cuts out the mids, which you want, really!

You can do a lot worse than Squier stuff right now, we have a few in the college where i work and they're still perfectly playable cheapy basses and feel pretty solid, when you consider my 62 American vintage precision as a benchmark, they're surprisingly good quality stuff!

Where are all the ambitious, talented bassists?
jay249 replied to charlieatlantic's topic in Musicians Wanted
Every band ad I ever have the misfortune of reading is 'record label interest' or 'major deal in the pipeline', I can only guess it's that classic little trick to make your band seem better and more successful than you are in front of other musicians, this has been happening forever and it's annoying. -
We had a gig in a restaurant in the center of Bristol, wedding party, the sound man (who shall remain nameless), but isn't our usual sound company, [i][b]forgot to bring lights[/b][/i] He's an excellent engineer and gets a great sound every time, but everything he does takes forever (people will know who this is from that I'm sure), knowing this I was self elected to 'use my contacts' and sort out some lights, I ended up driving across the city to get the keys to a mates lockup, which I hadn't unlocked myself before, he gave me the wrong alarm code! Alarms, flashing lights and panic! Once sorted I got onto the m32 to find it jammed up for about a mile, got back with minimum time, set the lights up, got changed and played. Good gig, though!
