    I am wondering whether there's a limit in the to posting for sale adverts? We're moving house soon and there's 20 years of stuff to clear out!

    I kinda like the idea. But I'd want to see the inside as one mahoosive PCB rather than all those circuit boards and flying leads.

    I just sold a WL-20 wireless setup to Gareth. A smooth transaction, no problems.

    The stand part is easy - it's for an NS bass and I believe it is this one: https://www.thomann.co.uk/ns_design_nxt_tripod_stand.htm The bracket on the bass was a bit of a project. From memory I think I bought a piece of square steel plate from a guy on ebay, and also a laser-cut steel disc. My friendly local car mechanic welded a nut on the back, and we drilled and tapped threads.

    I sold my Lego bass to Stew. An easy trade - good communications, turned up as agreed. A+

    I have a Squier jazz, and it has a Fender neck and it's had a pro setup and I like it a lot. But I had a go of my teachers Fender jazz and it was just that little bit better. Hard to put my finger on what exactly, but I preferred it to my bass. Now, whether that was just that I knew it was a real Fender, and whether I'd have felt the same in a blind test, who knows?

    Boss wireless connection, for electric guitar & bass with low-impedance active pickups. Charges via a standard USB adapter. Has only been used a couple of times at home and I didn't find it very reliable. Having looked up the specs to write this description I see I have the wrong one as my bass has passive pickups! 🫤 No packaging or manual, but I can throw in a USB charge cable. Includes postage to UK addresses.

    I only have a jazz bass. Generally I play upright, but on bad back days and public transport days I take my jazz. Sunburst tort, fretless, flat wound XL Chromes... it's about as close to the upright sound as I could reasonably get. That said, I don't play rock. Jazz and folk mainly. Edit: and I have to be really up against it to use the bass guitar for folk!

    Exactly, if we want to be one that select number of bass players whose name the public knows, clearly we have to get into the lyrics!
  14. Rosie C
    Ah, so there is. A decent price, and the Angus Young red finish with horns that I want! 💕💕💕
  15. Rosie C
    Bah! Already out of stock! I shall comfort myself that I'd have preferred red.

    Hagstrom H8 and Aria Pro II Wildcat - I've been looking for both for ages!

    Feel welcome to send villagers with pitchforks and lighted torches, but my first thoughts are a small power sander for the main body and a dremel for the detail 😈

    Now £300 For sale is my lute-style mandocello. I bought it from Thomann just over 2 years ago. This model with the rose only comes in acoustic, so it had a visit to my local luthier where it's had a Fishman pre-amp fitted, along with K&K pickup. Also the neck was shaved and re-shaped, and she found a small crack in the neck which was repaired. It has a flat walnut back. Although sold in CCGGDDAA tuning, I found the C strings too muddy for rhythm so it's currently strung as GGDDAAEE with D'Addario strings. The sound box is quite large and of all the mandolins I own, this has the best resonance and best tone. It comes with a gig bag, also with a 'hard' case - the fabric covered polystyrene type. I did want collection only so the buyer can try it first. But if you can't collect, I'll post to UK addresses. More information from: https://www.thomann.co.uk/thomann_artist_mandoloncello_c_wln.htm

    This exactly. This is the reason I've persisted with piano despite a lack of natural aptitude toward it. I have a MIDI keyboard on my Mac and use it extensively for arranging and composing. The piano is such a fundamental instrument - its compass covers virtually every instrument - I can play a double bass part on it or a descant recorder part. I can play chords against a melody. Also the piano keyboard is a visual representation of a music score more so that the other instruments I play. I can think 'Gm7' and see it in my mind's eye as piano keys. And so I keep bashing away at it.

    I had a similar conversation with my piano teacher a few weeks ago. I complained that when I first bought an octave mandolin I was able to play it at a gig a month later. Accordion was similar - I was playing at morris performances after 3 months. Piano... I've had lessons on and off since 1977, I must have practised for thousands of hours, yet I still can only bash out simple tunes that a moderately talented 10 year old could play. My teacher simply shrugged and said 'piano is hard'.

    I find practice with a metronome useful - it highlights where I speed up for the easy bits and slow down for the hard bits.

    Oh indeed! I once accidentally bought a book, the blurb of which said CCM musicians and especially Christian Rock musicians were all going to hell. I thought it was a satire, but no the author was deadly serious.

    It's not too bad - the bricks are glued. The evil "Kraggle" for those who've seen the Lego movie.
