  4. I can point you to a very lightly/hardly reliced at all, 70's P, in a very fetching sunburst [size=4] [/size]
  5. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1419951798' post='2644255'] Hey Gary, In April, on the anniversary of this wonderful thread Tweedledum will come and "look" at it". Only another 4 months to go!! [/quote] [size=4] Rich< I think it will have found a new home by then. [/size] [size=4] [/size][size=4]My new year resolution is to be optimistic [/size] [size=4]Happy New Year Bass Chatters.[/size]
  6. Have a look at this Dingwall, bump [size=4] [/size]
  7. I thought William Bell belted out the Northern Soul classic "Happy", in superb fashion. Ronnie Spector made uncomfortable viewing for me.
  8. For the last few years my gig rig has been a pair of 2 x 10" Mark Bass cabs. I don't regret the choice one bit, plenty of clarity, plenty of bottom end and a sound that I like. For rehearsals I just take one of the cabs.
  9. Great showcase, certainly shows a good few variations/styles. Hope it does the trick for you. [size=4] [/size]
  10. [quote name='zero9' timestamp='1419942832' post='2644127'] It might help specifying the location / area you're in or looking for bands to join. [/quote] Portsmouth it would seem [size=4] [/size]
  11. The last bump of 2014 [size=4] [/size] [size=4]In a few days time this bass will be in to its 40th year. [/size]
  12. The CV range is very impressive and that looks like a real nice example. Hope your Mum has better days to come.
  13. My tipple of choice these days is the cuppa [size=4] [/size]
  14. [quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1419854041' post='2643183'] If you're in NW London pop in for a go on it. [/quote] Might take you up on that, cheers.
  15. [quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1419844003' post='2643047'] Now relieved from GAS, here's the bass family.... [url="http://s1381.photobucket.com/user/chiliwailer/media/63%20Jazz/P1060937_zpsb1ec1930.jpg.html"][/url] [/quote] Handsome collection once again Dan. Must try out a Lull for myself one of these days.
  16. [quote name='theplumber' timestamp='1419769933' post='2642545'] Forgot about that!!...Its often the case that the stage is so small,or room so tight that we bass players often nearly end up in the drummers lap at times! And what about the racket off the cymbals about 6 inches from our ears!! [/quote] Yep, I never gig without ear plugs.
  17. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1419622196' post='2641402'] Hey Gary, it'll be your 8-month anniversary on the 4th January. [/quote] Discreet, we should celebrate this very special day together. [size=4] [/size] [size=4][quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1419622762' post='2641411'][/size] I recently paid about 12% less for a '73 in much less squeaky condition than this. I don't think you can go wrong either as a player's instrument or as an 'investment'. GLWTS! [/quote] Cheers JA [size=4] [/size]
  18. That's a real looker, very nice.

  20. First off, welcome, you are in the right place. Secondly, it's not dumb to ask those questions, it would be dumb to not ask [size=4]Don't try to run mate. What you are doing is good, nail those root notes, they are much more important than fills and flash runs. [/size] [size=4]Once you have nailed the groove you can worry about those fills etc.[/size]
