Big Berg! I’ve been looking at the Sisma.

I’m a nacho man. -
Ringo also played some piano and guitar. And I’d bet was a better bassist than Lennon.

Never thought of him as a bass player. I’d bet Ringo was a better Bass player…

I’d been rooting around for a little TH for a while. The search is over. I like it.

I like that!

Dirty power/dimmer circuit causing weird Class D amp noises?
msb replied to doc40hz's topic in Amps and Cabs
Neon signs can wreak havoc too. -
A friend recently bought an Ashdown in Texas , but the amp quickly had some issues and he had service problems. I was telling him the service in England was stellar. … back it went

I’ve driven around Toronto. madness

Welcome. You might find an interesting amp in the classifieds. (amp nerd here)

Welcome!

Hello? edit … check …test … 1 …. 2 …. hello ? … IS THIS THING ON???

I’m an old Fender guy , and was a Pbass aficionado. … now the only Fender shaped thing I play is a Squier Bass VI , and that’s just goofing around.
-
I put the “improved” heavier string set on the Squier and found they made a nice difference from the factory set. I had never really considered the Bass VI and then one popped up on kijiji and somebody got it before I made my move. And at that point I decided I had to have one. I’ve been happily surprised at how often I pick it up. I heartily recommend them. The Gretsch is a winner too , however mine does weigh a ton.

With a 29.75 scale they can easily be used both ways. Danos are being made in Korea once more. edit … the Dano 6 in line headstock is often called the Dolphin nose headstock , I have a friend that has several vintage Dano made Silvertones with that headstock , so I’ve liked it. I have a reissue 56 bass with the Dolphin nose and don’t find it any uglier than the classic coke bottle. I’ve been a Longhorn player since they first were reissued , and to this day can’t decide if they’re butt ugly or cool as heck.

I have a Gretsch baritone , I’ve read that it was initially designed to be a BassVI , but they decided to put lighter strings on it and sell it as a baritone. I’ve just tuned it A-A but I might try it with some heavier strings one of these days.
-
Danelectro baritones often have a 29.74 scale length so they can easily be strung either as a Bass VI or baritone. And they are not too expensive.

give ‘em heck

An original vintage Bass VI fetches silly money these days so I’m quite thankful there is an inexpensive offshore version available. I’ve been quite surprised at the fun I’ve had goofing around on my Squier. I put the more recent heavier gauge Fender strings on it. I like it a lot!

My thought exactly ! I love the look of that Trent. -
One look at the bridge and pickup and it’s obviously not original, despite the name on the pickguard. Some Chibsons are said to be getting more difficult to identify , happily not the case here.
