I had one for a while and they are good fun to mess around on. I imagine if you're actively recording you will definitely find some good uses for it! Enjoy! 

Tell you what, I'll get in on this - I've been on the merry go round of buying and selling £300 basses in the past 12 months so think I need to stop and appreciate what I have.

4 String (x 2) ✅

Short Scale ✅

5 String ✅

Fretless ✅

Good Amp ✅

Multi Effects ✅

Don't really have an excuse to buy any new gear...So let's see how this goes.

Anyone played a Chowny SWB? 

Oooh, never seen a white SWB in the flesh but that looks good. 

Is that the passive version? 

Bump! 

Considering he uses a Jazz bass 99% of the time live this is a huge scoop for MusicMan. 

Although this could also be a joke, you never know. Looks cool AF anyway! 

I just can't quite remember what these are called 🤔

Paging @skelf pretty sure he is experimenting with strings on tiny basses. He uses Newtone custom gauges - pretty sure the formula is: shorter = higher gauge to ensure tension. 

If anyone has/spots a 5 string fretless one kicking about - I could be interested! 😬

Open to trades on your Fretless basses you no longer need! Let me know what you've got!

Been a fair few roller-coaster rides recently on this forum.

But I'm so glad they mostly have had happy endings! Congrats and hopefully you can finally enjoy it! 

Vintage V74 Icon Jaco-a-like or a 2nd hand Squier VM Jazz would be a great place to start I reckon.

The V74 is reliced so no worries about bumps and bruises!

Right, September is DEFINITELY the month this is going to sell. I can feel it.

And just like that: Cory Wong touring the UK next February. Good odds that Joe will be on bass if he's available. Either way it'll be a brilliant gig!

And if you want to try and learn some - this guy on YouTube is very good https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUd7cP9eT5SLvX39z4aGOpw

It's strange how much easier it is to watch and learn from a lefty when trying to play along 😄

To be fair to the guy, he's not trying to hide anything. He's put more photos up than you would get on a fully functional and intact bass!😅

Safe to say, I'm addicted to anything Vulf et al. release. 

It's just so easy to listen to and fun. 

Funny this should come up - I'm literally away to put my first set of NYXLs on my G&L after reading some very positive reviews!

Is this yours? Stacked knobs et al? 

Looks like it. I don't have it to hand, but I'll send you some photos later on.

a wider sampling may prove otherwise...

😂😂😂😂

Nice! I have a Tanglewood Funkmaster which looks *very* like a Warwick Streamer.

I'm sure Kiogon will be along shortly and he will hopefully be able to help you out.

If not I have an EMG-BQC preamp that I don't have any use for, might involve a few extra pots though.

Paging @KiOgon

The ones supplied with Sennheiser headphones are great. In fact I probably have a couple of spares - PM me your address and I’ll send you one.

Wow! Thanks! I'll PM you now. 

I see you're in Central Scotland. Merchant City in Glasgow have a few basses and I think they have one of every Reverend guitar model in every colour. Flippin loads of them! 

Of course these wee adaptors are available for pennies, but I find they don't fit snugly. Sound sometimes cuts out when I move the headphones

Can anyone recommend some ones that actually fit 3.5mm so I don't have to sit still while practising 😅

Like buses, it would seem.
