I would have thunk airbags should deploy when a certain g force is exceeded... maybe running into a solid wall at 8mph would do that, but surely not hitting a mobile object. It's actually rather dangerous if the airbags are going off when you don't need them as it makes it hard to control the vehicle through the 'second stage' of the collision. All of which is rather irrelevant unless you can persuade the car maker that the bags were faulty and should be stumping up the cash!

It's the Final Countdown ummmmm Clearout
topo morto replied to Nick Brown's topic in Basses For Sale
I was walking through a cemetery this crisp autumn morning and suddenly thought of the STR, for some reason! Sorry to hear about the hand problems. Reason I am learning bass now is because I saw my dad struggling with his own arthritis (a hereditary type)... i realised i should wiggle my fingers while I still can, whether that's a week, a year, or ten... then go back to the computer stuff when that's getting a bit difficult! The god of bass is great, but the god of music is greater still... -

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1321616154' post='1441178'] Whichever it takes to keep her quiet [/quote] I think when you get really good, slapping is just a subset of fingerstyle anyway. Not that I'd know.

SOLD Thanks guys [color=#A9A9A9]I think this is a 'KS' bass, based on it having the same unusual headstock shape as[/color][url="http://www.swapz.co.uk/swapz/1746101/black_5_string_bass_guitar_ks_instruments_b-05/"][color=#A9A9A9] this one[/color][/url][color=#A9A9A9]. Originally bought via this thread:[/color] [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/136601-sold-5-string-fretless-passive-bass-with-brand-new-flats-l100/page__hl__fretless+pristine__fromsearch__1"][color=#A9A9A9]http://basschat.co.u...__fromsearch__1[/color][/url] [color=#A9A9A9]Hope Thurbs doesn't mind the link. Basically I did what he did - got this to try fretless, enjoyed it a lot (thanks Thurbs), and upgraded to something a bit better! Things to note: When I got it, the nut action was very high, and intonation at the bottom of the neck all askew, so I've filed the nut down a lot to sort that out - does play much better now! The strings I got it with didn't last long, and I then got some flats which are now on another bass so it doesn't have strings on it at the moment - I may have some I can stick on it but they would be nicer ones than came with it - will think about that more if anyone is interested! I think this is one of those rare fretlesses with 'between the frets' dot markers, so that's a little extra thing to get used to.[/color]

Inspired by this thread: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/137-warwick-dark-lord-bass-strings-review/"]http://basschat.co.u...strings-review/[/url] I got these, and I got a nice 35" bass to try them on - but I'm enjoying the bass too much in standard tuning to mess with it so the plan has gone sideways a bit! I've tried the F# and B string on for size, but not cut them to length, and not played them for more than 5 minutes, so these are very nearly new. Tapered ends, so as long as you have a front-loading bridge that can cope with a B string you should be fine. If you don't want to file the nut wider, you'll want to take the existing nut off and get a cheap one off ebay to file to the right width for these fatties. £26.50 incl postage.

I pounced on a couple of freshly listed pedals and they were with me effectively the next day. Game played at a lively pace, just like it should be! Many thanks!
