Total Watts

  1. Just had one of these donated by my Dad as he uses a Spark Mini for all his practicing needs and I hope this is the kick I need to get playing again. Seems very handy to have at the desk with a set of headphones and you're away - no more digging out the amp from the cupboard!
  2. Seems weird that there is at least 5 BBs for sale on the forum just now and @AndyTravis is yet to buy one of them 😂 Jokes aside, some great BBs (both new and old) available.
  3. That's quite the hit to take in such a short period of time. Great bargain for you though!
  4. I've noticed the Longhorn picking up a few fans recently, so this might interest you.... https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2024/03/22/danelectro-announces-the-red-hot-longhorn-bass/
  5. Most likely - yes. But I think this is down to algorithms on YouTube/Social Media that he has to play like this to get likes and clicks. He is probably a rock solid bass player if you need him to be, but that's not going to wow the internet and make him money.
  6. How absolutely bizarre - was just googling these this morning as I had half forgotten about them in the vain hope that none were for sale. Welp.
  7. A few months ago, I watched a video of a guy designing and building a guitar/bass with a spinning round neck. He surprisingly got it to work! Now Charles Berthoud has got his hands on it. Not everyone's cup of tea, but you have to admire his ability to play his style on almost any stringed instrument.
  8. A weird world where you can get a bass with Sadowsky on the headstock for less than a Squier 😅
  9. Have a look here https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/490616-vox-starstream-h1-short-scale-with-kent-armstrong-pickup/
  10. I don't own a SR300, but as others have said SRs a very well priced 2nd hand - just be aware that it's really only the SR300s that use the Powerspan pickups. So if you've tried one and liked how it sounds, anything higher up the range will be similar, but will have different pickups.
  11. Although on mentioning this to my Dad, he's just offered me his Mighty Plug since he doesn't use it. Damn him for ruining my GAS! 😂
  12. I have been in a pretty long term funk with not playing - whilst the basses are out, any amp I have is tucked away behind other things so I can't just pick up a bass on the spur of the moment. I've heard very good things about the NUX but this seems a touch more polished (as you would expect). I reckon this could be a purchase and see if it gets me playing again!
  13. We are very spoilt with how we can communicate, and it is very frustrating when we don't receive answer to what we view as a simple question after the standard 3-5 working days. If you really like your Lionel, I would persevere with trying to get the specs you want. Again, we are spoilt for choice with basses, but if you like something the patience might pay off. I would try either GuitarGuitar or Classic & Cool Guitars as they might have encountered your question before and have an answer, or have a better line of comms to Sandberg. Might not be a quick answer, but it might get you what you want in the long run.
  14. Looks cool, but the tuners on that bridge look much longer than you see on other headless bass bridges. No idea if that's a positive or not?
