How do you know if you're any good?!
Highfox replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
Not as good as I wish I was It's a never-ending experience on trying to improve. -
I believe the MK1 4- strings to be that anyway. Not sure about MK2 or 3's

Hi Lewis. As far as I am aware it's normally a fixed dimension. As an extra customization, it might be possible to get those altered, you'd have to inquire I think.

I haven't seen him play since some 20 odd years ago now that I moved away from the UK. I used to go and see him all the time with all the different line-ups he had from PIl, Kerang to the Invades of the heart, one thing was for sure, the bass was always cranked up loud and groove was the order of the evening Always a great rhythm section. I lost him a bit on the poetry and the Chinese dub stuff, but found some of his newer stuff fairly enjoyable again. Maybe he has gone a bit too show-man (looking at youtube videos) for me live nowadays, but I guess that's what is kind of expected of him. The nicest bloke you could meet now he is off the booze. I went up and spoke to him as a fan many years ago, gave me his phone number and said whenever he was gigging to give him a call and he would put me on the guest list (which he did) Big respect to Wobbs. (plus he started me wanting to play bass, a hobby I still practice nearly 40 years later)
-
Yes He mentioned the basses were only in temporary storage whilst he was moving and then was going to arrange space for them back at home again.
-
I also really don't need it atm, the Rumble 500 does the job for me. But handy size in the 40 for jams and home/ recording etc and a few extras to play with.
-
I was sold on that demo but would like to get my hands on one first. The 40w would be nice if it kicks out enough juice.

Let's hear all your own Basschat Rig Rundowns.

Mine can vary a bit, two very different bands. Basses: USA 74 Fender P, Roadworn P(flats), or sometimes an Ibanez ATK. (I have a fretless Ibanez Musician that I drag out sometimes as well) Amps: Fender Rumble 500 Combo (with the 2x10 extension at bigger gigs) @ practice Aguilar TH500 with a Genz Benz 2x12..this is also sometimes gigged. Pedals: Korg Pitch tuner, Nano Bassballs, Nano smallstone phaser, Ebs Compressor, (sansamp para driver mainly for stand-by and some recording) Cables OBB. It can change a bit -
Unfortunately, the JG wasn't one of the ones found and returned so far. From Joe's recent post it sounds like he is hopeful of a few more turning up. He hasn't posted a lot of details other than to say that it is still an on-going process/investigation.
-
Update 27.1, some good news, Joe has now got 3 of them back The rest are still on-going
-
If my Rumble 500 ever goes tits-up..i'll deffo be looking at one of them
-

-
Thanks Dr I think I read somewhere that Paul/Wal provides a CITIES certificate with all it's new basses now. Not 100% sure as I didn't think to ask!
-
Thanks. It's has a Padauk face,
-
I'm hoping all that will stop. I sold off 3 over the build time in order to pay for this! I still have a couple, but have been trying to cut down. Lets see
-

Bass lines that really only suite synth bass
Highfox replied to KingPrawn's topic in General Discussion
Very camp But this one back-in-the-day, could never tell if bass was doubled with the synth? anyone know. -
I think I'll have to learn to live with it. Been years since I tried /Had a Wal..so shooting a bit in the dark. I did ask for any possible weight saving as well, but not at the cost to any possible balance issues.
-
I feel I just have to share, the excitement is growíng So, after 20 long months of waiting my Wal MK1 is finished and soon to be on the way. Update photo from Paul.

I could have something for you soon again Roman if that is ok?
