Photos of the gig on Sunday have been posted. I don't think I've posted any photos of me playing here in the 20 odd years I've been a member. However, this deserves a special mention. So there I was, busy playing a G. When two dogs started fighting outside. One got off his lead and the lady had to run after it down the middle of the road. And the other one was getting a roasting from its owner. Never a dull gig.13 points

Well, @skelf pulled it out of the bag and got me my new Custom Recurve before I have to go back to Mexico and even before my *redacted* birthday tomorrow. But it's clearly not a rush job. Arrived about half an hour ago and it's all I could have wished for! Gorgeous, crafted to the highest standards and after just 10 minutes noodling it already feels completely like home. The neck is absurdly playable, as anyone who has played an ACG will know. There's just something about them that feels intuitive and right and fast and confidence inspiring. And this one also happens to look incredible. Recurve 4, 33 inch scale, East pre and combination of PB and RFB pickups. Hybrid Turkish Walnut top, birch accent, alder body, mac ebony board, maple and wenge neck. Looking forward to getting it home and playing around with the sounds with my usual setup and not a shitty 15w practice amp that distorts if you even breathe on it.11 points

Got this out for a play and decided to keep it. It’s a finger funk fiend. Lovely Tony Levin 5’er. £225 collected £250 posted It came with 3 band Audere preamp fitted, but I didn’t get on with that, so fitted a 3 band Nordstrand which, lovely though it was, didn’t float my lightbulbs. Finally bought a 2 band Retrovibe Stinger directly from David, I paid him to fit it for me as he’s only down the road, he did a top job of course and the Stinger gave me the sound that was in my head. It has the side jack still in place if you fancy returning it to a 3 band pre. I wasn’t keen on the original mother of pearl look scratchplate, so I removed it (binned it too I think). Unfortunately replacement scratchplates are as rare as a guitarist turning down a solo, so @TimAl made me a new one through his Gig.Ink service. I preferred the plain black against the 70’s Orange. Anyway, the Stinger makes this a wonderful beast of a 70’s Ray. I did buy a SD MM pickup, but the string spacing is narrower on these, so I stuck with the original (which is great, now the Stinger is in). Lovely condition, I’ve taken it out the house on 3 occasions since buying off @vmaxblues and played it once at a recording session that wanted some disco and “slap”. I will do anything for money, even that…engineer nearly soiled himself when I slightly boosted the low end. It has Schaller type strap locks and I’ll include a new leather strap with matching locks. Comes with a choice of cases, a stiff gig bag type case that is in great nick and loads of pockets, or a hard case that is as basic as can be and is a little tired around the edges but does a sterling job. I’m currently recovering from surgery and won’t be driving for a week or two, but am able to hand over in person if you visit Slapper towers. £225 seems a decent price for a nice 5’er. Might be up for a trade for an acoustic guitar (Steel or Nylon string) or old MacBook I can run Logic on. When I’m back on my feet and driving I’ll be happy to meet up, or arrange postage for an additional £25, but again once I’m able to get some packing materials and box. cheers John10 points -

Last night In Isolation played the Infest warm-up event at Nightrain in Bradford. A venue that, judging from the posters, normally puts on rock tribute acts, but for one night was taken over by gothic electronica and us. We were a little out of place with all the other bands being much more electronic than we are (we were the only ones with a drum kit) but we'd got the gig because we'd had to pull out of a previous year's event with a more suitable line-up due to a last-minute date change which then conflicted with our singer's wedding. Having said that we seemed to go down well with a surprising number of people dancing at the front and plenty of applause between songs. One embarrassing thing - for the last three weeks we've been rehearsing a cover of The Bolshoi's "Away" which we have managed to keep quite about, so guess what the DJ chose to put on just as we were getting ready to play... We left after Deviant's set which meant I was home at a slightly less stupid time in the morning, but disappointed because the two bands still to play had sounded awesome during the soundcheck. I will probably be listening to Tilly Electronics on Spotify while I work today...9 points

Played at a birthday party this week in Oughtibridge near Sheffield with our (very) occasional country band ‘The Fork Handles’. A 4 piece outfit up of myself on bass, my best mate on guitar, and old friends on guitar/pedal steel and drums. We all sing lead & harmony vocals. The venue was ‘The Pheasant’, a lovely old pub owned by an old friend ( who used to run the cafe in Hull where our acoustic duo first performed). Bit of an awkward room to set up in (long and thin) with us at one end and the bar down one side, but we managed to get there early and soundcheck so got it sounding okay. Previous gigs with the band have often ended up being too loud but this time we all managed to keep it under control and subsequently all the better for it. Fairly standard country rock tunes got people dancing in the first set, and by the second one most of the audience were up. All over too soon, but overall a great gig. Made me appreciate how much I enjoy having a pedal steel player in the line up - Dave Holley is a great musician, and no slouch on a Telecaster too! No pics of the band playing (unless some surface from the guests) , but obligatory shots taken during set up. I used my Precision Lyte into a Rumble 500 combo, perfect for this gig.9 points

...this Lakland Skyline 55-02 Deluxe came along for an excellent price. It's NOS, bought new from the shop but it's from 2018. So no roasted maple, but that's fine. It has old D'Addario strings on it and it needs a clean because it's an ex-demo bass (I think), but I really like the feel.8 points

Here is my MusicMan StingRay 5 HH for sale. I took this bass in a trade a year or so ago and it has been my go-to session bass. It's a 2013 model in a super deep Blue Pearl with the black pick guard and maple neck. Setup perfectly with Rotosound Stainless Steel 5s (not as bright as you imagine!) and comes with the MusicMan Hardcase as well. Condition is a solid 8.5-9/10 - only a few swirl marks around the volume knob and under the G string on the pick guard. A genuine contender for most versatile / best function bass ever created (looking at you, G&L L2000!), this has the 5 way coil selector switch which offers a fantastic plethora of sounds. This thing shines in the studio - so many options from fat and vintage to out-and-out scooped StingRay. The quality is amazing and I think the QC on MusicMan Basses is yet to be surpassed by another decently sized manufacturer. Sounds incredible, feels incredible, and frankly, is incredible. I've loved gigging this bass and my reasons for sale are extremely petty. Firstly, as I've grown up with single pickup StingRays, my sound and technique is better suited to a single pickup StingRay. Secondly, it clashes with the green kit of the wedding band I play in (blue and green should never be seen etc...). Like I said, petty. On the other hand, if you have a black or white single humbucker StingRay 5 Special (the newer 18 volt one), I'd be happy to do a deal. Based just North of Cardiff, South Wales. Most welcome to try it here or willing to meet. Not willing to post or ship - if you want to arrange shipping, I'm happy to work with you. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Sam6 points -

£2950 - Will consider lower value trades plus cash. Very reluctantly, my Status Stealth 4 string is up for sale. All graphite body and neck - this really is peak Status. If you catch it in the light, you can see the amber woven in and it looks incredible. Born in the mid-late 90s, it's in excellent condition and has been a case queen for most of its life. I've gigged it once and it was fantastic - everything I ever wanted it to be. Of course it can do the whole slap thing, but it's much more than that; much deeper and more soulful, and so consistent. I don't think it's ever needed tuning in my ownership and the neck profile is something special. There are some small surface scratches on the body but honestly it looks 2 years old, not 25 or so. It's still got the plastic wrapping on the back of the rear compartment! 2 band EQ, Hyperactive pickups, 18v preamp and set up to perfection. Comes with the branded Status case, the original case candy (including Allen keys) and even the original registration documentation for the warranty. It also comes with a thick, chunky genuine Status strap which supports it beautifully and was almost harder to find than the bass itself. Bought from BassBros and apparently was owned at one time by VMan from Slipknot, though I can't prove this and to be honest, I think most Status' have slipped through his ownership at some point! When in BassBros, I tried a couple of Alembics and a Wal on the same day, and this played 10x better. It felt like it had come from the future. In terms of trades, I'd love MusicMan Stingray 5 (single humbucker) plus cash my way. Try me for other trades - a cheaper bass plus cash could be considered. Cash offers considered as well. The proceeds from this are going towards a house deposit. In a few years, I'll hopefully buy another proper all graphite Status, but with the way prices are skyrocketing, who knows how much they'll cost by then. Based just North of Cardiff, South Wales. Not looking to ship unless it's arranged by the buyer - same goes for overseas shipping. Happy to work with you on that. Happy to meet up or welcome to try it here. Any questions, please don't hesitate. Sam5 points -
It’s the balance between providing something that you enjoy without becoming exactly the same covers band playing exactly the same set as another band elsewhere in town at the same time. Nobody needs another band playing Sweet Child o’ mine and Livin’ on a Prayer.5 points

Good post. I imagine a woman in @police squad's situation might feel slightly more pressured than a man into trying to improve her appearance. However, note my use of "feel" - it would, I think, be mostly in her mind. Most women of my generation (and PS's) have been raised - by society if not necessarily by their family - with the idea that you should always try to look your best in order to progress your career or generally be taken more seriously in anything you do. The entertainment business is the same, only more so! So we would already be making a huge effort in a case like this. If you want the gig badly enough, I don't think there's anything wrong at all in using "tweakments" (technical term, people! Look it up...). As someone suggests in a previous post, musicians have stage clothes and accessories, choose the right bass/guitar/drumkit for the look, etc. and improving your appearance (in the gym, at the stylist's, at the cosmetic clinic) falls under that same category. However, as that previous post adds, it's keeping up the appearance that may trap you in. Will you have to do botox and dye your hair from now on in order to stay in the band? What happens if you don't? Would it be like meeting someone on a dating app and discovering they put a 20-year-old photo of themselves on their profile? Will the band have fallen in love with you in the meantime and accept you as you are?5 points

Oh dear. This has to stop. I'm done now, unless someone comes up with an 800RB...... Back in February @The fasting showman listed a 400RB MKI. It was one here for a while, a couple of months, and at that time, they weren't on my radar. This was before I had heard @shug with his amp at Ribble Valley Jazz & Blues Festival, and I knew I had to try one. Anyway, the amp got withdrawn before it sold. Very late last night I contacted Martin @The fasting showman, to see if he would reconsider his decision to withdraw the amp and sell it to me. "Perhaps" was the answer, but no postage. Then we realised he and his family were coming to stay in a cottage 12 minutes from my house, today!. The heavens aligned, and we met up this evening and the deal was done. We had a bit of a chinwag, much of which was in praise of these amps. @cetera I think Martin is still kicking himself over selling you his 800RB. So here we are, a MKI, MKII and a MKIII 400RB. I'm so chuffed I can't tell you. Rob4 points

Been playing with Dave on and off for a long time, he’s a gem of a player. Also great on acoustic guitar, mandolin and banjo - he calls himself a string wrangler! Yeh, he has. Sometimes forgets which instrument ( steel or guitar ) he plays on some songs which cracks us up. Annoyingly he’s so good on both that he can blag it too! It’s just a shame I don’t get to gig with him more regularly. Amazingly another of my friends also plays pedal steel, as well as other stuff. I’ve known both guys for around 50 years now, so been blessed with some lovely steel sounds for decades. Both have met BJ Cole and rate him highly, and also know Gerry Hogan who used to gig with Albert Lee.4 points

Hi All, Basses are very similar to busses - yes the spelling is similar but also, never one when you want one, then two come at once. Just about to pull the trigger on a beautiful American PRO II Jazz which I've been wanting for ages!!! BUT Out of nowhere pops up a Victor Bailey 4. The seller is selling it with both a fretlees and fretted neck, with all the bits. Only thing is it's not fully stock. It has aftermarket pickups and a Bartolini pre amp - i havent heard it but I dunno if it's gonna be my thing. Would be bought without the ability to try it first sadly as it's at the other end of the country (NZ is harder to get round) Seriously considering this as a project - drop a Sadowsky pre and maybe some Fender Vintage Noiseless pups in it and see how it compares to my Am Deluxe QMT Jazz from the same era (I know they are similar from stock, just different woods). Had a Victor Bailey Acoustic and it was ace but sold it for lack of use. Always been keen on the VB Jazzes, very rarely see them in the wild. Do you think the Sadowsky pre and noiseless pups would work well in a bass like this? Part of me also says just buy both... Well that part of me was louder than the part that said "don't be silly!" Arrived today on the afternoon courier run (despite tracking saying it was ages away and would be a Monday delivery) But yes, behold...😁😁4 points

***Put some cobalt flats on it, gave it really good set-up and it’s a whole new bass. Keeping it!*** Bought this as I was completely smitten by the colour, fully with the intention of selling my white ultra jazz, but for no reason I can particularly put my finger on, I find myself going for the white one a bit more. I love the necks on these. Super comfy. Tonal range is superb, with the core, both pick-ups, everything flat sound just being a really tight, sits well in any mix kinda thing. Comes with the case, all the gubbins etc. and aside from one small ding in the pics, is in really great condition. I've swapped the straplocks for traditional buttons as the keen eyed will see in the pics, but will put the strap lock buttons back on before letting it go. Weighs in at 9lb 7oz. I have boxes to ship it in but would prefer to meet up for a face to face deal if possible. I'm in Chepstow. Have put a £1600 price tag, but might be some wiggle room for a cash sale. Definitely up for trades and part-ex, particularly a maple-necked ultra jazz or any ultra precision. I like Fender shaped objects very much, but not adverse to giving a potentially nice Warwick/Spector a shot if there's some cash coming my way in the deal. Lakland 44-02/55-02 DJ4 (red one????) maybe? Yamaha BB P34/35 2024x or even 1024x. Have yet to have a lasting relationship with a Stingray (mainly the weight I think), but open to the idea. Open to anything not too obscure or boutiquey (is that a word?) Fender's Spec says... Fender’s American Ultra series is arguably the most advanced range that the legendary company has ever produced. Developed to meet the needs of the discerning contemporary bassist, the Ultra Jazz Bass fittingly combines ‘60s cutting-edge with modern-day cutting-edge. The results speak for themselves; unparalleled comfort thanks to a compound fretboard radius, Ultra-Noiseless pickups offering pristine tones, striking finishes – this model has it all! Fender’s Noiseless range does exactly what it says on the tin. With the new Ultra Noiseless pickup range, it’s stepped up a notch. In this model, you’ll get a pair Ultra Noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass pickups. Alnico 5 magnets and vintage-style voicing combine perfectly with the carefully calculated tonewood combination and construction. Add advanced switching to the mix, and you’ve got dynamic, punchy response that can be tweaked to suit any style with absolute precision. Limited Edition, FSR Model Andertons Music Co. has collaborated with Chicago Music Exchange a few times over the last couple of years, bringing you some of their coolest limited edition gear to this side of the pond. And now, we’ve teamed up with the American retailer once again to unveil three Fender FSR American Ultra models — available exclusively between us! Featuring super-cool anodized gold pickguards, sleek Ebony fingerboards and incredible colour-ways — this is your chance to grab some stellar kitted-out guitars, with serious flair and future collectable prestige to boot! Key Features Ultra Noiseless Pickups – Vintage-voiced and versatile Fender tones without the hum! S-1 Switching – Access more pickup combinations for greater tonal flexibility. Modern "D" Neck Profile – Slim, supportive shape suited for the latest generation of players. Satin-Finished Neck – Slippery and non-sticky for a fast feel. Compound Radius Fingerboard – Rounded at the lower end of the neck and flattens out the higher you go, for optimal playability.

Update - Now £875 and for sale, was previously just for trade. Made in USA in 2013. It was blue, and then had a DIY strip, then oiled, not a pro job by any stretch, just fun and functional. The back of the neck was sanded to get the lacquer off, this gave it a vintage vibe / blend to where the lacquer remains at either end, which I tried to photo. Lindy Fralin pickup, regular wind 👌 Matt black single ply guard, from same maker/material as the 90s EBMM guards. Marks from truss rod adjustment are pictured. Weight is approx 3.9kg / 8.7lb Wearing TIs in photo, but is now string with Fender flats. Great bass, but oddly for me my CS Jazz is getting much more love and attention, so this advert scratches an itch as I don’t like seeing a bass just sit there. Sorry, I’m not into trading by post, and collection from Chesham, Bucks please.3 points -
Many of us are/have been/will be again on a quest to find that perfect light weight rig - with that in mind I think we should take the time to celebrate the heavey rigs out there! I've been back and forth between various heavy and light rigs for years, while undoubtedly a light rig is more convenient and less erosive on the spine, I just prefer the general tone of the heavy boys! Let's share some photos of heavy rigs that we currently own, or have owned. Currently, I'm knee deep in the heavies with the below 3 rigs: Eden WT1205 and Eden 610XLT cab Epifani UL901 and Epifani 610 cab Marshall VBA400 with Jubilee 410 and 115 What heavy beats have you got/did you have?3 points

I used the Marshall in my 20's, the Musicman in my 30's and the Mesa in my 50's. I also owned a stupidly heavy Dynacord combo in my 40's. Finally in my 60's I saw sense and technology gave me a sensible solution with neo and d class.3 points

The G&L pre-amps use passive tone controls and then feed the signal to a preamp. They use the same very low power op-amp used in the early MM 2 band pre-amps so power consumption is tiny. The battery is not disconnected if the plug is in the jack but the low power consumption means it will last a long,long time.3 points

Similar thing here. A guy who owned two nursing homes. Must have spent most of the profits on a guitar collection and clothes. Trust me when I say no-one looked more like a great guitarist. Imagine a young Jimmie Vaughan making more of an effort. He was a shocking guitarist, mind.3 points

Good luck with the audition. My thoughts are, if these things arent permanent (I dont know enough to know) then its down to how much you want to be in the band. If its not permanent then if you feel comfy go for it. Is it any different to changing your hair, clothes, gear for a gig? not really. If its permanent and thisis a dream gig, its your call. Its a entertainment industry after all. Enjoy. Jonny3 points

I was a Pbass guy for a long , long time. And got into Rics , and for some reason picked up a Dano Longhorn when the reissues first appeared , and started playing that. I’m not sure just how it happened because everything went sideways , I started picking up shortscale basses. Still mostly a Dano guy but really started to love Gibson shortscales. Picked up a big Gretsch hollow body , and then a chambered solid body. It happened … Gretsch guy. Just a working musician playing the mid sized rooms downtown. Not a big star , but I was always gigging. Still do. I’m ok with all that. I’ve got an interesting mix of classics and short scales , from a Ray to a HiFlier , Samurai , Flying V the usual stuff you can pick up over the years. I’m nerdy about amps , but I’m a thumper. I like an amp that has authority. Never owned a real boutique bass , I’d love a little Alembic Stanley Clarke. Or a Wal or even a Ritter. I think I’m safe for the time being , but if a good deal came up I’ve been known to weaken. I’d love to find a cherry EB3 in nice shape. I’ve never owned a Tbird. I usually have a little stash of gig money for any musical emergency that might pop up. I once took up the tuba , it did not go well. I was working on some chromatic exercises one afternoon and after about half an hour started to feel a little dizzy , so I put down the Sousaphone , and saw my wife with a look of absolute horror. I asked what was wrong and she said. ”You wouldn’t believe the sounds the washing machine was just making” I knew my days with the Sousaphone were numbered.3 points
