    Hi all, Need a sturdy box to send a bass in? I can offer this one free to anyone (locally or otherwise), who can come over and collect it by Sunday 19th of November. I'm in Brighton. If no one comes in for it by then I'll have to recycle it as I need to get it out of my front room. Contact me if you're interested.
  2. For sale is this excellent Gallien Krueger MBS150s- III bass combo in very good condition - as you can see from the pictures. This is a really great 150 watt portable combo for studio recording, small gigs and also works brilliantly with a Double Bass or an EUB. It has never been gigged, is in perfect working order and comes with an amp cover (but not with a power cable). I am selling this as it has served me very well throughout a period where I was not in a gigging band, now that I am; I could do with a bit more power. I would keep it if I had the space and could afford to keep it. Have a look at the specs on the Gallien Krueger website: https://www.gallien-krueger.com/mb-150s112-specs I'm only looking to sell, so no trade offers please. Cash on collection only so come and try this out so you can check it out, I'm in Brighton. Grab yourself a great deal! Here is my feedback thread as assurance of an honest transaction: Any questions, let me know. Thanks.
  3. The greatest rock bassist of my generation. When I was a teenager, for me it was all about Flea's playing. Then as I started getting heavily into STP I realised that Robert DeLeo is by far the more complete musician. I am now 41 and still hold that view. Love this guy and his playing!!

  5. Ha ha absolutely, and get a spare to use as a hood ornament on your car. All the while adhering to this:
  6. I got mine here: https://www.staractionfigures.co.uk/840049820258
  7. Saw one of these online and despite the rather steep price there was no way I wasn't going to buy a Bootsy Collins action figure!! 😁 This guy will be coming with me to the studio in a few weeks when I record with my band. The dearth of funkiness in our material may be resolved subconsciously by his attendance I hope!
  8. Just saw this thread and I too have problems with this design. I have to say that my experience of the new super lightweight bridge on my Stingray Special is that the grub screws on the bridge saddles constantly slip when I'm trying to adjust the action, it's a real hassle. It's the only thing that isn't top, top quality on the bass for me. This flimsy design is really not an improvement on the original pre 2018 chunkier bridge for me, I'd be willing to deal with the extra weight and have a sturdier bridge in return. I think I've also got some audible buzzing coming from vibration of the lightweight hollow saddles when I play the bass acoustically (which is quite often). I had a look on the Ernie Ball Music Man forum based on other comments in this thread, and Ernie Ball send out replacement bridge saddles or longer grub screws free of charge for those affected by the slipping or the issue with the bridge bottoming out but apparently it's only if you can provide proof of your receipt as the original purchaser. I bought this bass used a couple of years back so I'd have to pay to rectify one aspect of the bridge that shouldn't be an issue on such a high quality instrument and still have the flimsy bridge design that I dislike. I was thinking of maybe swapping the stock bridge for a black Gotoh 201B-4 bridge but I'm hesitant to mess with such an amazing bass. Has anyone else done / considered doing this. Is this sacrilegious?
  9. I sold a Geddy Lee Jazz Bass to Mark - it was a perfect transaction! Mark is a great guy; he turned up at the agreed time, tried the bass out, and paid the asking price. We had a quick chat about playing and the deal was done. All in all a very pleasant and easy transaction. Deal with confidence everyone, thanks very much @Brewer62
  10. I've changed my mind before about selling this, so you'd better get in quick and grab yourself a great deal while you can. 👍
  11. Yeah it stays with you. A bit like watching The Exorcist for the first time..
