  1. Hi, is this also on sale in the bass gallery ?
  2. Hi, can anyone recommend a good multi stand for 5 basses ? Needs to have high quality rubber / absorbing material to take the weight of the basses. Thanks
  3. Hi, where are you based ? Thx
  4. This thread spurred me to dig out my vinyl copy of this for this first time in years. Didn't realise until I played it yesterday that one of gtr riffs from John McL on "Right Off" was later used as basis for "You're Under Arrest". btw, saw John McL at Ronnie's last week. Still got it in spades
  5. Well, you beat me to it. Was going to buy it this week. Did you come all the way from Sicily to buy it ? Enjoy the bass
  6. V nice. Is this the one at the bass gallery ?
  7. Never heard of this guy until I checked out a Tiny Desk Concert. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ferZnZ0_rSM Seriously impressed....reminds me of Curtis Mayfield......
  8. this is what is going down....on the slopes.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogKDBbi2thA
  9. Love this track... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0c38Wtdvz0 Classic funk.....with Ready Freddy.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogKDBbi2thA
  10. Now you can ask the burning question........which piano is best for metal ?
  11. am I in an elevator ?
  12. Thank you guys for all the replies !! Basschat is great. My SR5 is super light (4.1kg) with most of the weight in the neck. It sounds great though. Based on the info you guys provided and my own experience of owning a 1978 SR4 2EQ for years, I am leaning towards another SR5 but Alnico this time, as I fear a 2EQ will not cut through in every band setting
  13. Thanks. My Stingray 5 is from 2000, so Ceramic. Personally it sounds great and easily cuts through in any band setting. More so than the SR4 2EQ I used to have (which kind of got lost in twin Les Paul situations)
  14. Hi, does anyone have both these basses ? If so, how do they compare ? I have a normal Stingray 5. Curious to know what the Classic 5 is like (potential next purchase) Thx
  15. He plays on Miles Davis "one phone call" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMYhKhqBenY which features Sting's only interesting musical contribution since the Police

  17. Musicman collection. L-R 2000 SR5 1987 3EQ 1978 (sadly sold last week)
  18. Hi, Mark bought my 1978 Stingray. Top communication. Superfast bank payment. Flawless transaction. Mark, I hope you enjoy the bass as much as I did over last 15 years. Missing it already. Cheers Ken
  19. Bargain price drop !
  20. Bump and price drop !
  21. Hi Guys, After much debate I have decided to put my 1978 stingray up for sale. Price = [s]£1,600[/s] £1,550 I am the 3rd owner. Had it for 15 years. It has been gigged many times both by me and previous owner, a pro muso (who bought it in 1980 second hand) and used it on tour with Gary Numan and Van M among others. It is all original except for fitted Hipshot. Original tuner is included in sale along with a hard case. Body dates from June 1978. Neck is from Sep 1978. I added the details, a few years ago, to Gav's musicman site below : [url="http://www.musicmanbass.org/mycustompage0052.htm"]http://www.musicmanb...tompage0052.htm[/url] Weight = 4.5kg. All electronics work perfectly. Neck & trussrod also working perfectly. Strung with Cobalt flats.String volume balance is excellent. No silent G. Based in London. Collection preferred. No trades as cutting down on my collection.

  22. Had a Ken Smith 16.5mm 5 string. It was too much of a change when switching with standard 4 strings. Sold it and bought a SR5 (17.5mm spacing). Much better.
  23. Ditto comments on Alaska. Need to burn your clothes if you go. It stinks.
  24. Incredible bass line. Also played on Skipping. Could it be any more busy ?
