That's an outstanding price for this bass. Not a Fender fan but when I played one of these I was really impressed, pickups sound great and neck feels superb. -
Yup. And her not openly speaking out/refuting it is in line with what you'd expect as well, given how they appear to treat deserters...
-
To be fair, Billy Sheehan didn't replace someone who committed suicide following mental illness, which is a big factor here, given scientologist beliefs. Which is why Im sure they would have made ABSOLUTELY sure she wasn't part of that cult.

Its difficult, I know Mark is a bit of a marmite character but I like and have a lot of time for him, all my interactions have been good and he is passionate as anyone about bass gear and finding the best gear for bassists. Its the staff that seem to get so many complaints, that mostly seem to center around not really caring about the job, which is a shame.
-
Yeah, I mean that alone ends the argument of whether it was the right response or not...

I forgot this existed! 😅 Looks really tasty in the new paint job, its definitely the one Music Man bass shape that suits headless for me. Honestly, I think this should just be something you hang on to, if nothing else to annoy other Music Man fans. 😁 -
Nothing has been verified either way on this. Most popular consensus is her parents were and she was born into it, but has later rejected it. She may have taken the bull by the horns with it, as the lyrics to the new single could literally be about Scientology. One thing's for sure, Linkin Park would have looked into this in a hell of a lot of detail, as if she was the person some are trying to claim she is, it would destroy what's left of the band.

It saddens me a little to be honest, as there's certain points in that song where my mind suddenly flicks to Chester singing it Hybrid Theory and LP was a big part of my teen years and his death really hit me harder than expected. But the fact it makes me feel that way means she absolutely fits, so I really am looking forward to the new stuff. I think they've just really got to think about what old stuff they should include in the live sets going forward, as they need a lot of work for me and i'm not sure it'll ever really work well enough.
-
Actually disagree quite strongly with that. I think if Chester was replaced with another male, he would have almost zero chance of ever being accepted. She feels like more of a new singer than a replacement, I don't think a male could pull that off unless he had a totally different singing style.
-
Wow, this thread jumped straight in with the toxic. Gotta love the internet, and it's not even just young people it seems. Ugh. But, to briefly touch on that, I am sure the business Linkin Park have explored this to death and are satisfied with the outcome, it would be naive for anyone to think otherwise. On to the music, i'm mixed on her. I really didn't enjoy her performance of the early stuff, and asking the crowd to sing when she was obv struggling was an interesting move. But I really like her voice when she isn't trying to imitate Chester, and the new single is ace. Excited to hear the album!

And it's painful! 😓 Definitely wasn't a bass I'd ever thought id sell either, which makes it even worse, but needs must. The Leduc name is perhaps not as well known here for it to be recognised just how cheap this is, and no doubt a certain 2016 politician decision is impacting interest elsewhere... 🙃 -
So many beautiful basses for sale at the moment, this is lovely 😍 -
FS/FT: Strandberg Boden Standard 5 (price drop: 1800£/2100€)
Kev replied to Abjatar's topic in Basses For Sale
Is shipping outside the EU an issue? Given this is a UK forum, it may help generate some interest on here if you clarify Looks a nice example of one, did they switch to Fishman from Nordstrand at some point? Swear these had Zen blades at the start? -
Thanks for hopping on and providing feedback Sarah

Thanks to Tony's generosity, once it's made its journey across channel, this bass will now ship safely in a custom fitted hardcase Still just £1,149 plus actual shipping costs.

Following some time listed with Bassbros at £1,599 and not finding it’s new home, I’ve decided to make this bass available on here again. I’m unfortunately in a position now where I need to move this bass on quite urgently to raise much needed cash, so I’m going to take a big hit on it to help it find a deserving home. So I’m slashing the price right down to just £1,149. Ibanez money for a stunning example of French luthiery. Hoping for a UK buyer for an easy meetup to avoid couriers wherever possible! International sales still doable, though I will need to source a hardcase to send it in first, which we can chat about. Cheers!
-
Irregardless of all the above, Bassbros seem to be doing perfectly well, and based on their Trustpilot and other reviews, significantly better than other vendors with "better" online presence 👍

The Brown Dog circuit is superb, especially when used with filters and octaves! -
Spotify is a free marketing platform to get your music in front of millions who otherwise wouldn't hear it. Its invaluable and worth more than any marketing campaign you could buy. Unless you're massive, if you're looking at it as a source of income, you're looking at it wrong.
-
The dude who owns Spotify has done more for music and up and coming musicians than almost anything or anyone else, but people don't like to focus on that

One of my all time favourite bands, BSSM in my opinion is one of the best records in the genre ever written. I haven't enjoyed the direction they've gone in recently and definitely prefer the Josh records to the recent two Frusciante, which are largely packed with forgettable tracks.
-
But If Metallica didn't exist 40 years ago, where would "thrash" be? I think that agree to disagree thing still applies, even if I'm not sure either of us understand's the other's point!
