    Fantastic bass. I want one.
  2. Rayman
    Ibanez withdrawn, so it's just the Spector up for grabs now. I'll give it a few days, then just hang on to it. PM's replied to thanks.
  3. Rayman
    PM'd sir.
  4. Rayman
    Why thank you sir. Seriously having second thoughts though, [i]both[/i] basses were amazing in rehearsal last night, particularly the LX4. I think I'll keep 'em and save up for a Euro 5.

    Bump for a nice 6 stringer?
  6. Rayman
    Cheers geezer. By the way, I'm keen for a 6 stringer too, so any offers for 6ers welcome.

    TRADED. I must be insane. This bass is really wonderful. I love how it looks, how it plays, and how it sounds, but it just has one string too little, I need a 5er or 6er. I'm after £700 (reduced from £800), but that's as low as I'll go. I have withdrawn the Ibanez because I love it too much, so it's a straight sale for the Spector, OR a trade for an Ibanez Prestige 5 or 6 stringer plus cash adjustment depending on what it is. I'm open to offers for other 5er and 6ers too though. I'm in Manchester, but travel around for work, so I can meet you somewhere within reason to close the deal. There's no case I'm afraid.

    Me too, it looks fantastic.

    This collection never ceases to amaze me. Spectastic baby.

    James Burton's a hero, I love him, and his Telecaster. I saw him with the full Elvis/Vegas band a few years back. Utterly fantastic, proper guitar playing that.

    I think there's a lot of tosh spoken about neck width. For me, I prefer the [i]tone[/i] of the Jazz over the Precision. Ergonomically it makes no difference to me playing a Geddy Lee Jazz neck or a 6 string Bongo.

    No matter what make and model of bass I have in my hands, I always gravitate to a similar tone. A cross between JJ Burnel, Steve Harris and Adam Nitti would sum it up I think. I like to play quite aggressively and with staccato on the Spector, but quite mild an mellow on the GWB35, and again with a lot of staccato. That's at home for fun of course, with the band it's whatever the song needs to work, but generally my tone remains the same, it's [i]my[/i] sound.

    I've always loved Ibanez gear. I had an old 70's Ibanez precision that was great, and more recently a K5 which was one of the most comfortable basses I've ever had to play. Currently I have a GWB35 which, apart from some loose fret markers that are currently being replaced, is totally sublime. Once the cheap plastic fret markers have all been replaced with some nice dark resin ones, it'll be my permanent home bass.

    Stunning. I want it.

    Ha, that's funny. My youngest daughter watches Zingzillas, but that episode passed me by. I love Stuart, he's a big influence on me, but that Warwick bass......I dunno.......I just don't know if I could live with the shape.

    I [i]LOVE[/i] these new classic Stingrays, I want one.
  17. Rayman
    Good god, that's beautiful, really really beautiful. I love Overwaters anyway, but that's right up there with the best.
  18. Rayman
    I'm surprised to see this still here, they really are fabulous basses these.
  19. Rayman
    It makes a change something like this [i]NOT[/i] being in London. Count me in Pete.
  20. Rayman
    If this is Peters' old bass then I can confirm, it's the nicest bass [i]I've[/i] ever had my hands on period.
  21. Rayman
    I can't begin to tell you how much I love mine. It's a fabulous bass, and the only one I'll use at home now. Massive low B, tight and punchy highs, loads of low end, I love mine to bits. I love mine so much, I've thought seriously about finding the ridiculously over priced Japanese made version, but at over 3 grand I doubt that'll happen any time soon. Wonderful bass this, and highly recommended by me.
  22. Rayman
    Kinal MK-5, currently back with Eubassix and I can't afford to get it back. NEVER should've let this one go. Utterly fabulous bass in every way .
  23. Rayman
    We'll be needing pictures on here mate if you want a bite.

    [quote name='Machines' post='984081' date='Oct 11 2010, 08:57 AM']Enjoyed looking at the gear, always fun to try out new stuff. Saw a few familiar faces and was good to catch up . Stu Hamm was very talented, but I'll be honest that I didn't enjoy it. Me and ped left before Victor Bailey though as our ears had been 'bassed out' .[/quote] I didn't go at all this year Matt, and I feel guilty because I like Gary and Stevie, and I feel like I should support the cause, and bass day is usually the only time I see most of you all face to face. Don't why, I just didn't fancy it. I'm a Stu Hamm fan too, but I dunno, I took the kids to the park instead. I think the trouble is, I can only listen to so much bass playing and I've just heard enough. Gearwise, there are rarely any bargains to be had, just lots of full price equipment I can't afford. Maybe next year.

    Big screwdriver mate, and as always, steady as she goes with a truss rod, a quarter turn can make a big difference.
