Hi. Who made the neck? It’s origin? Thanks Mark -
Sorted. Secured an immaculate EBS MicroBass. lovely. Thanks
-
TC Corona chorus mini, with box. Bought, used a couple of times. Great...but I just don't use it. £50 and its yours....or swap me your boxed TC Electronics Sub'n'up mini. (I really don't want any other pedals thanks. Gotta play Sledgehammer & Playhouse when we get back to giggin'!) Okay? Mark -
Hi Interested in a Clean & boxed TC Corona Mini for a straight swap. Mark -
The necks on this vintage of Squire are fantastic. I have built a whole new bass around one, they are so spot on. GLWTS

TBH. A featureless DI would probably be fine! Me sound is in me fingers!

Like the Eden.... but doesn’t work off Phantom Power

Was this sold? -
Hello All Need.....or perhaps....want a DI pedal. In the past, when called on, I have just used my Genz 9.0 as my DI for ‘those’ sort a gigs. To hell with it. Let’s leave the amp in the case and have a pedal do the job. It must: Be able to work off Phantom Power Have some basic Eq. Be a ‘quality’ piece of kit with a ‘quiet’ and un-knackered signal. It doesn’t need Any Drive/Grind/Fuzz/Gravy - always clean as a whistle, me! Realise I can just not use the Dirty functions...but if they weren’t even there - that’s even better! That’s it really. £200ish Max Input required. Mark

I did go on a Saturday afternoon... Anyway, not a big story here, but it was a welcome surprise.
-
A nice surprise. Tin Pan Alley Shop happy for you to touch and play kit. Friendly and honest. Well done gents. (nice 66 Jazz...£6.5k just saying)
-
Thanks 🙏. Sorted.

I transport my amp, foot switch and pedals in a Pelli type plastic case. All great...apart from the top layer of ‘pick and pluck’ foam which is falling apart. Where can I source much ‘tougher’ foam. The sort I have to cut myself, and won’t just fall apart after 10 gigs. Any thoughts or recommendations. Mark

Can’t get away from playing a Jazz, but mine bear little resemblance to their original spec. Left: Roasted Alder Body in Daphne Blue, Babicz Bridge, EMGs (18v) and 80s Squire neck. Right: Mexican Alder body in Midnight Blue (special edition colour in 2003), Babicz Bridge, Bartolini 9Js with Richter passive plate, Status fretless neck. Love em.

Sincerely not been something I’d considered or actually been aware of! The relicing is where wear would happen over time. It is definitely not an issue gigging and is where your thumb would naturally anchor. I’m at work right now, but would say 5mm? All the best Mark -
Cheers Paul. I think it’s a fair price! I’m sure your name rings a bell?!
-
Oh please, someone, buy this. Amazing value, -
4000 - Gigged one for years. Quite heavy resin body, and limited tonal change with Vol/Pan/Treble electronics... but a big sound! It’s got the Status punch with a single coil sound. They seem to be quite expensive these days and I wouldn’t pay more than £700 for one. Make sure the neck isn’t chipped!

Now on eBay. Quick, or it’ll go!

Sandberg MarloweDK California 4 string bass. Series 2. As original. Comes with the proper Sandberg soft case. No hyperbole needed. A quality bit of kit. Specs: Alder Body (Vibration treated), Maple Neck, Pau Ferro Board, Pearloid Inlays, Custom wound Alnico Pickups, Nickel Hardware, 38mm neck at nut, Weight: 8lbs 3lbs ’ish’ Condition is as ‘new’ 😂. It’s never ever been dropped or banged, and has been kept in a hard case when not being played. I’ve gigged it, but I manage not to fall over or fight with drum kits. Bass is in Cheltenham. Will come in the proper Sandberg softcase. UPS to mainland UK for £30, or arrange a local meet/collection. I’ve a proper bass box etc £950. I’ve no need to sell, so please no daft/disingenuous offers. Mark

The vague comfort was the venue owner saying we were far better sounding than other bands. ”They always sound so noisy and muffled”. I didn’t bother explaining...

Playing at a venue last night for a wedding. Played fine, but the room sound was utterly dreadful. Big concrete box with an added domed ceiling. Rumble, bounce, boing boing boing. Our engineer had smoke coming out of his ears. Almost nothing in the FOH mix in the end to make it as quiet as possible. We have a list is venues we just avoid playing, because the sound is always dreadful. Any one else avoid crap sounding venues!
