  7. One afternoon spent in Bass Direct. What a shop Mark has. So helpful and let me put my grubby mitts on anything I asked. Some very nice basses in stock but that Kingston Super 5.....

      I daren't go there. I'd be bound to buy something and the current mrs discreet would rough up my scrotum with a Scotchbrite pad.

      Come to think of it, where is Bass Direct..? :biggrin:

  8. I've been  very quiet as of late. I've gone profoundly deaf in the right ear due to an infection & have not gigged or undertook any music work in weeks. I've got an exploitative operation tomorrow & my first gig in months Saturday. Look after your ear health.

      Good luck. It can be useful to be a bit deaf at home with the missus, but I've got a marble for that. Hope everything works out for you.

  9. After a supreme effort in getting down to one bass, I've only gone and ordered another one, haven't I? D'oh!

  11. Big shout out to Andertons, who firstly got a bass to me super-quick, then sorted a couple of minor issues quickly and efficiently. Superlative service. Will be buying from them again.

      Quite right, Lozz... I think I already had the bass I needed some time ago! I must re-trace my steps, then resist the temptation to get back on the merry-go-round. :)

      Yes, and that basses were wood and wire... and amps just boxes full of, er... unicorn poo and magic beans. :D

      Alan Entwistle JBXN. Around £45 for the set, which is mad considering how good they are. Makes you wonder how the big manufacturers come up with their prices...

      Ha! :) Big thumpiness, great growliness and unprecedented burpiness. Can have both pickups up full without interfering with each other. Articulate, powerful and punchy. Very much like an active bass - only, er... it's passive. Also very affordable.

      In-depth review and lots and lots of pics, rambling explanations, off-colour jokes, diversions, distractions, audio clips, derailment and weirdness, please. Did I say lots of pics? :D

  20. While GuitarGuitar Glasgow has a decent selection, I am very excited to make a trip down to Bass Direct at the end of the month.

      Don't forget to take your credit card. Or looking at in another way, definitely don't take your credit card...

  22. Wondering whether I should be annoyed that a bass I agreed to buy at the asking price and collect at the sellers earliest availability has been 'sold' to someone else without the buyer telling me......

      Pop a bag of meth through his letterbox, then dob him in to the feds. That'll teach him to take advantage of a penguin named after a puppet.
