Yep, sounds and feels indescribably good, but I can't lift it.

Just bought a Warwick case multi stand thingy from @thestick of this parish. The corner of my domicile used to house three basses on individual stands which stuck out at irritating angles. Happy to say three has become seven. I can get some more out from under the bed now.

I agree with you, impossible to make a definitive judgement from one clip played by someone else. Thanks for taking part.

Getting a bass refinished in print

Always liked these wrap jobs their guitar tech did for them. So realistic -
I drove down the M4 to Reading and back today and felt like I'd absconded from Stalag Luft. A holiday? Ooh I don't think I can handle that. I just don't know who could resist a case that turns into a scooter. I mean how cool is that??

Ahem, just leave this here, you can thank me later https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08C4M6WLL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_t1_HkANFbXCR7E40

Best 1 amp and nothing else solution I have ever had was a rack bag. Easy to carry total protection, less bulky, a pocket on top. Wish I'd kept it.

Met Trevor in time honoured Basschat fashion, in a layby just off the M4. As far as two masked desperados go I don't think we frightened anyone. I came home the proud owner of a new multi stand, and very happy to be so. Throughout the process Trevor remained patient as I came up with one excuse after another to delay the culmination of our deal, and is, I am delighted to report, a fine Basschatter. Heartily recommended.

I will go check out his work. I have of course heard of Whitesnake but not sat and listened properly. Always happy to follow another bassist's recommendation.

That looks lovely. I'm a recent convert. Used my 80s Aria for decades with the occasional dalliance here and there, but the two Ibanez I now own are really good instruments.

Of all the visual aspects of a bass, headstock shape is a real deal breaker for me, so I know what you mean. I am really lucky because I like the HB headstock. Not having the skills to reshape it I'd be stuck. The Gear 4 Music headstock basically saves me money (see also G&L, Bite, Kramer etc etc)

I have precisely the same issue. Some patches sound great then the next one I select is weedy or quiet or both yet they sounded fine when setting them up on the computer. In fairness I often came across this with multi effects pedals. Problem is, you can get them all to the same DB level and some sounds will cut through better/worse than others just because of their character. Trial error and using the output level I guess

I have the 4 string, its excellent. I have literally no desire to change anything , not strings, pups, nothing. However just for fun I put some square stick on 'inlays' on the fretboard. Pimped my Harley!!

I have a semi which never achieves its full potential. Unless I put it into a Joyo Sweet Baby. Then it comes to life. I tried it with my solid bodies and it was too thin. Another good one is the American Sound or its little brother the Orange Juice. -
