  1. Past hour
  2. Elegance and power in one single bass. Looks fab, and I bet sounds as well.
  3. … who says there’s no fun in music anymore?!
  4. Storm in a Teacup - The Fortunes
  5. Nerr nerr ne nerr nerrr!
  6. After we lost an upcoming gig a few weeks ago, I was panicing a bit. The one band has secured three plus a few promises/backup lists and I got a gig for the other band tomorrow. Now just hope the mass of messages (about 40) I sent out doesn't bring a tidal wave of offers!
  7. Awesome Origin Effects Bassrig 64 Black Panel compete with original packaging and cheat sheet. It's in fantastic condition with no velcro on the bottom. It sounds awesome!
  8. Just put a new clip connector and maybe some Deoxit in the pots: Your bass will be ready for the next 15 years. 😉
  9. My Y.O.B. wish I hadn't seen this 😳
  10. For £70-90 you could buy a harley benton kit with an oversize, unshaped headstock and a bonus box of bits that are mostly surprisingly serviceable and a very light, unfinished body.

    Darkglass Anagram

    After watching the deep-dive video I think the Anagram can do 2 effect loops: 1. The effect insert through the Send jack. 2. Using one of the 'outputs' as a send and the Return jack as the return. Am I right, can someone confirm? (...GAS has returned...)
  12. I’ve lost count of the amount of original tracks I’ve ‘discovered’ due to them being sampled by someone else. The Ramsey Lewis track being a case in point. I’d not heard (of) it until someone told me it was where Beck took the bass line for Debra from. As I say, I think sampling can be hugely creative…
  13. My last attempt at selling a bass here before they go on commission sale in a week or two. I recieved this bass in a trade recently and it is absolutely stunning. Overwater make some incredible instruments but they can be on the weighty side. This one however is just 7.9lbs! It's a Custom 33" scale Progress 4 with a figured Walnut top, Swamp Ash body, Wenge/Maple 5 piece neck with the extended bolt-on neck joint, Rosewood fingerboard, MOP front and side dots and the wonderful Overwater 3 band EQ and pickups. It's in fantastic condition, has a new set of D'Addario strings, and it includes the Overwater branded Hiscox case. Collection from Margate or I can package the bass well if you'd like to arrange a courier. These are over £4000 new from Overwater so grab a bargain! UK-Price-Guide-2023-v3-1.pdf
  14. Visions of China. Japan
  15. Again quite poppy, but I love this, elements of Beach Boys and Devo, a heady mix...
  16. Same, its a real cracker Custom Sandberg and light, whats not to like. I'm confident any buyer will be extremely happy. Kept me GAS free for 5 strings and for 5 years too, which is a miracle by my GAS standards 😂
  17. Good Jazz bands do. I've seen established ones with long reputations that don't...
  18. My next solo act name..."Stingray Jack Socket"...
  19. I am selling my Barefaced Super Compact bass cabinet. Price is £500. I bought the cab on this forum from @FinnDave in March 2024. It is a 1x12 cabinet, with a silver cloth grill. The cab is rated at 600w / 8 ohm. Cover is included. These are incredible cabs, and super-light. I am only selling because I have subsequently bought more Barefaced cabs! Collection preferred. Not looking for trades. Thanks

  20. Will listen to it, thanks Re sampling, it's the extraordinary way you simply can't tell unless you REALLY listen and REALLY know your music, more than once I've heard a Radio 6 DJ play an obscure tune from the 60s or 70s followed by 'And of course Beck sampled that in.......". Mostly CC of course 👍
  21. Hi, my bass seems to have developed a buzz/rattle when playing the E string…has my sound post moved??? jonny
  22. It's lovely, it took close to 10-years of talking to make it happen, but it is a great way to play music. I'm very lucky to be by some distance the least talented person in the band, which is highly motivating 👍
  23. One of the things I really like about his music (especially earlier records) is the sampling/re-cycling of other tracks. He’s never hidden it, and I personally think sampling etc. can be hugely creative in the right hands. I must admit, in most cases it was only some years later that I found out which tracks had been sampled etc. - Devil’s Haircut intro is taken from a track by Them (featuring Van Morrison), but at the time I just thought it was a killer guitar riff, that sounded like a 60s garage band! Again, it doesn’t diminish it in any way, in my humble opinion. If you haven’t done so already, I implore you to have a listen to the Sea Change album. Best listened to alone, and through headphones, it’s his ‘heartbreak’ album, and can be uncomfortable to listen to at times, as it’s so obviously personal. Doesn’t matter how many times I hear it, Already Dead reduces me to a blubbering wreck every time… Though most things do that these days!
  24. Election Day - Arcadia
