Hi Frosty, from another Bass Chatter of the same vintage

Not been involved in these sort of events but feel for you, that is a crappy way to carry on.

Delicious looking grain in that Chris. Hope you enjoy

Think I'll stick with fine oil and continue to nick my good wifes cotton wool buddies. Much cheaper.

happy for you

I like coffee, I like bass so it sounds like a fine idea. Not so sure about traveling in to London at the moment. I;ll check in nearer the time and see where abouts it's happening.

Got to be Wal for me

That looks real good Tim. Love it.

Been a bit of a bass fest for you in recent times Nick. Another very handsome instrument

[quote name='Pestie' timestamp='1377624195' post='2189577'] Thanks Gary. Do you have any suggestions for pup replacement please? cheers Mike [/quote] Conan has answered that one very well. For me Seymour Duncan quarter pounders.

Don't think the CV necessarily needs any upgrades but if you like tinkering then a change of pups can make a big difference.

[quote name='sprocketflup' timestamp='1377368503' post='2186843'] sparcely populated [/quote] Same with our gig on friday night. But shouldn't have been surprised as the publican didn't publicize it, didn't even put the posters up that I hand delivered a couple of weeks back.

He certainly provided some tasty bass lines. Until very recently Son of a Preacher Man was in our set. I did my best to stay close to the original, with some of those nice little fills and restrained busyness, if you know what I mean.

I think the Chromes are brilliant, plenty of thump. I have to admit though, that they are the only ones I've used, so I can't make any comparisons. Pretty sure Strings Direct do single strings, might be worth a look on their site.

[quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1377266459' post='2185588'] Quality tunes there Gary We've added 'Time' into our set. That's a fun bassline, rhythm varies a lot and also varies between staccato notes and sustained notes. Good fun [/quote] Still love that number, after all these years, I always enjoy it and seem to be in the right mood for it.

Kylie Minogue, Can't get you out of my head and Katy Perry, I kissed a girl. for the poppier part of our set

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1377258905' post='2185405'] And now it's only halfway up, so it's neither up nor down. [/quote]

Seems to be back up but given the above comments I'm a bit reluctant to log in

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1377186946' post='2184541'] Couple of nice pics of the bass in action! Great! Do you mind if we use them, Gary? [/quote] Course not
