    Thanks Duarte. Bill Nelson is going back a bit. I'm even old enough to remember him.

    Bit of a departure for me this one. Turned on the DAW, recorded and improvised with no plan or arrangement. It is what it is but I wouldn't change anything. If you're not keen on ambient bass maybe this isn't for you. Otherwise sit back and let the music take somewhere for 20 minutes.

    Is that what they call 'road worn'?

    I always felt everything was OK when Howard Jones and Nick Kershaw were about.

    I'm not sure about the borders. Coat in hand

    Nice one. That's a bit of fun.

    One simple question: Why are we talking about this? Answer: Because Gene Simmons has uttered something controversial. That utterance has achieved what he wanted, people talking about Gene Simmons. NEXT...

    You lot. No foresight. This is "rare" and it is "gold". This will be a good investment for the future. Easily get your money back in 100 years time when £250 will buy you a chocolate bar.

    ...and lines on a fretless neck will be the only way.

    Still, more kindling for the accordion fire

    One question I'd ask of yourself, and there is no right or wrong answer to it, but who is making you feel guilty?
  12. BassBus
    Aye, right

    If you’re in UK try this link for Barefoot buttons. I have bought from them with great service and you avoid the extortionate shipping costs. https://thorpyfx.com/collections/barefoot-buttons

    It is lovely if you can find a place to park your car

    I live near Berwick upon Tweed on the border between Scotland and England. Not near anywhere. The town does have an ambient connection. Steve Lawson grew up here. He moved away a long time ago though in search of his audience. I don't know, but I think he found that audience.

    Your music reminds me of a gig I saw many years ago. The piano player sat with his foot on the sustain pedal and the Soprano sax player pointed his instrument into the piano strings. Amazing sound and yes, probably worked best live.

    I wouldn't count on that not happening. First release - Helix Floor/Rack Second release - LT Third release - HX Fourth release - ? Getting smaller all the time.

    Nice work. Some tough stretches on that one.

    That is amazing music. Just goes to show you don't need 100 notes in every bar to make good music. Also you don't need all the effects I use to get the atmosphere. Full of ambience. Following you on Bandcamp.

    Thank you. I have no plans to do live work but you never know in the future. I live halfway between here and there and it's a bit of an ambient desert so would probably mean a lot of travelling to find an audience.

    Look at it upside down and I'm seeing Sir Bradley Wiggins in his BBC interview today.

    It's the heavy metal in the case that's dangerous.

    The Father of headless basses, Ned Steinberger, designed a tuning system that does just that for the NS Radius bass. I do love those Leduc basses too.
  24. BassBus
    That looks like an interesting tuning system. The only problem I would have with it is the way the tuners stick out from the end of the bass. They would be a bit vulnerable to damage or being knocked out of tune. The headless basses that have the tuning pieces recessed seem a much better option to me, i.e. Steinberger and Status. Any more info on those tuners? Headless has always struck me as just being logical.

    A link to my YouTube channel for anyone who might like some stuff that has a bit of an ambient flavour. https://www.youtube.com/user/bassbus2/videos?shelf_id=1&view=0&view_as=subscriber&sort=dd
