Sorry jumped in a bit quick there, didn't realise we were in the Double basses forum

I wouldn't be spending money on used strings. Would rather spend the money on some meths spirit and give my own strings a soaking, assuming they were strings that I liked

Good man Jack. This could be one of the most valuable/important posts to appear on Bass Chat.

I love flats when playing at home, particularly if playing along to Northern Soul, Motown etc. When it comes to gigging though, it has to be rounds for me. Maybe I need to get myself into a Norther Soul band

I don't think you can expect to pay less than you are already paying and be able to get anything that is going to be safe or efficient. I guess small things are easy to lose and because of this I have a routine post gig, of immediately removing my plugs, putting them back in their little storage tin and from there straight into the accessories pocket of my gig bag, job done. These are the ones that I've been using for the last couple of years.

An unexpected combination of the modern looking cabs and the retro looking Fender head, like it though

That was a great find. I was trawling on Friday but obviously not very efficiently -

Very nice and what a stupendously good price. How did I miss this on Ebay? -
Hope it goes well for you. I've done a few and really enjoyed.

Doddy said just about exactly what I was going to type, thus saving me the job

These days, now that we gig regularly, we only hire a rehearsal room when it's time to add new material to the set. We will have all learnt the songs at home. It works well for us and usually means that with a rehearsal or sometimes two, we can get up to eight new songs in to the set.

Love the black and maple, wish I hadn't sold my 74 in that finish. Glad you are enjoying.

Mine is an almost permanent feature in the lounge here. Had it about six years now and it's had plenty of use. So far so good.

Be careful when locking in with your drummer!
gary mac replied to SpaceChick's topic in General Discussion
I think your drummer needs to get his tackled checked over. I've never heard of bollock cramp. Your duty as bass player does NOT extend to offering this service -
That's a looker

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1409259869' post='2538157'] Its ridiculous that this bass is still here and it is a hell of a lot cheaper and in better condition than most others I have seen just goes to show how poor the market is right now But at least you can enjoy it for a bit longer Gary [/quote] Thanks for that Paul I shall be enjoying playing it later today, my wife is off on a shopping spree and I'm not . -

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1409159627' post='2536970'] + 1/2 I'm increasingly finding that I can't be arsed with these overblown, overpriced, comeback extravaganzas but I do enjoy watching the resulting DVDs. Cream, Led Zeppelin and even stuff like the Clapton 'Crossroads' DVDs have all been well worth the tenner or so to buy them and watch I the comfort of home. Yes I know 'it's not the same' as being there, but I reckon I've been to enough live concerts by now so it has to be something really special or really convenient. Sad, maybe, but true.
