  1. I had a 5 string in C F Bb Eb Eb for a while so the twin Eb strings were a bit thicker for big strum chords. Was quite fun.
  2. @NoRhino there's one on the Bass Players Market facebook page at the moment. https://www.facebook.com/groups/BassPlayersMarketUK/permalink/4358108774200717/?sale_post_id=4358108774200717
  3. And then have to go through the Vat refund process with HMRC that will take a good 6 months at best.
  4. Is that really only 7lb? That seems amazingly light for a 5 string with that spec.
  5. https://bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Barefaced_Big_Baby_II.html?fbclid=IwAR2kGPaNR9jo2QgnBaF0u4H6QKcYIlzeQlrxwIxy2IjutAoPg2-1ZBGVn0o That seems to be a keen price!
  6. oh man... P bass with TI Flats, and there is that Pino tone. I cannot wait to get playing with the band again.
  7. New ones are £350 now! World has gone mad!
  8. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tech-21-dUg-Pinnick-DP-3X-Signature-Bass-Preamp-Distortion-Pedal/174784716218 It's not me! Anyway - a chance for someone to maybe grab one for a good price.
  9. Not a daft question - that's a daft guitarist.
  10. Hugh just bought my Stingray 5, and to show how much I'm complaining about an 8.9lb bass... he bought his 13lb fretless with him! Great chap, lovely to chat with. Very nice to meet you.
  11. Congratulations! What a great present.
  12. I have 3 pedal boards. And although they are different sized and have different purposes the core elements for me of tuner / compression / drive are available on all of them. And yes - I do take 2 of them to a gig.
  13. I am gassing so hard for one of these. Someone needs to buy my bass and then I can spend the money on pedals!
  14. These days one can only really tell from the spec sheet.
  15. Bump. Dont be afraid to make offers. I will part it out next week if it doesn’t sell as is.
  16. I run HPF last. I don’t see the point in putting it before a compressor that will try and boost the stuff that I’m trying to cut.
  17. It's still cooler than the air in the amp. It's all relative. Even on a really hot day when my PC is pulling in room air at 26C - that is still way cooler than my Graphics Card that can hit 80C. As long as the delta (difference between the unit and the air) exists there will be heat transfer / balancing. Cold air would be better, but any cooling is better than none.
  18. I've not tried any of the Fender pedals. I might have a look now.
  19. Yes. It was MM5 and a 40 before it was PJ. The P was an Aguilar narrow spaced P.
  20. @hubrad Here you go. Routed and painted (looks like shielding paint).
  21. That envelope filter is my second favourite filter ever. It's really really good!
  22. Strapping Young Lad, some Meshuggah Gojira, Slipknot All depends on the vocalist really. Some SYL tunes are heavier than Cannibal Corpse, but DT's an actual singer.
  23. It was a Sadowsky. On paper it was perfect. When I played it - no better than a common jazz. Up until that point it had been on my bucket list.
