[quote name='The Burpster' post='26704' date='Jul 3 2007, 08:20 PM']JB, I use GHS Fast Fret (£4.99) on my flatties after I have played and they are sliky smoooov when I come to back to play....... Like baby oil on a freshly shaved bea.............. (porn alert!)[/quote] ....ver

i tried EB hybrid slinkys when i had me 'ray & thought they were great but they went dead really quick so i've not tried any more.

[quote name='Viper' post='27397' date='Jul 5 2007, 12:49 PM']I almost bought a Jaguar bass yesterday - it played and sounded nice but will be trying out a couple of others before I make a decision... though I have a feeling it'll be the Jag I'll end up getting. Mark[/quote] buy it you won't regret it, i absolutely love mine to bits

looks buggered to me

Drums Chad Smith Bass Jack Bruce Guitar Stevie Ray Vaughn Vocal Ronnie James Dio strange mix i know,but all masters of their art.

Fender bass 1V i don't know why i just want one.

I'd go for the ashdown perfect 10 mini rig too.mind i bought one a few weeks back. sound wise i'm very pleased with it,not shure about me neighbours though

[quote name='EdwardHimself' post='26390' date='Jul 3 2007, 10:44 AM']wow if i didn't know any better i would have thought that was an old bass. Fender really did get what they wanted with this one, didn't they?[/quote] yes its a beauty for shure + i still can't believe how nice it plays & sounds.i'd recommend one of these to any body. btw the neck is even slimmer than my Jazz bass with a very low action which makes it a really fast player for those mid-gig Flea style solos (I wish)

[quote name='andy_$$' post='26163' date='Jul 2 2007, 06:42 PM']At the moment I'm listening to a lot of Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Norman Watt Roy is a genius! Andy[/quote] he's a real nice bloke too,i've met him 3 times when we supported Wilco Johnson at Fibbers in York. as for favourite band/bassist Cream Jack Bruce RHCP Flea Black Sabbath Geezer Butler Iron Maiden Steve Harris

Modulus Flee bass don't care what colour 'cos i can't afford it anyway its just nor fair.

nice bass.the black plate really makes it.

OMG I've just done something childish in me pants that is bloody lurvly i'm so so so so so so so so so so so jealous :wacko:

i find Fender 9050L to be pretty good--cheap too.

[quote name='dlloyd' post='25548' date='Jul 1 2007, 10:59 AM']Maggie May... parts are good, but the remainder suggests drunkeness...[/quote] +1 i think this is some of the worst bass playing i've ever heard.

ok thanks guys

anyone know were i can get one of these ? there is an american ebay seller with 'em but i'd rather buy from a uk seller. cheers.

[quote name='martthebass' post='24577' date='Jun 28 2007, 06:24 PM']Very nice................any left at that price?[/quote] no sorry mate,this guy did have 2 but i bought the last one-lucky old me

nice bass bass, pity the vocalist couldn't sing (sorry can't remember his name but man was he crap) Paolo Nutini thats his name,like i said he was really crap. the rest of the band were good thought.

[quote name='The Burpster' post='24441' date='Jun 28 2007, 02:22 PM']Very pretty sir..... Damn good price too.... was that new?[/quote] aye indeed it was mate

i do like a good slapper or two.

[quote name='Rayman' post='24415' date='Jun 28 2007, 01:43 PM']That's wicked, by far the best colour for those. The switches scare me off though, what do they all do?[/quote] dead easy really, top switch is for the active circuit i.e. on or off there are two wheel type adjusters for active treble & bass. at the bottom an on-off switch for each pickup & a series switch for the pickups ( S1 switch stylee ) plus master volume & tone controls. the master tone control works when the bass is in active or passive mode -- cool eh? this bass really does sound very good,its in danger of becoming my no. 1 bass.

it sounds absolutely effin ace,the sheer amount of tones available is incredible & bulid quality is extremely good too,& it plays like a dream. the only thing wrong with it is a little bit of laquer missing from the top edge of the neck near the nut (chipped off) but it came with a fender gig bag (its brand new btw) & i paid £480.00 for it. bloody bargain eh ?

he's a total tit methinks

GAS its a wonderful thing
