Nice bass...bargain GLWTS -
[quote name='Roger2611' timestamp='1472979051' post='3125659'] [color=#1D2129][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]We have spent hundreds of hours writing, rehearsing to be[/font][/color][color=#1D2129][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]come the band we are, we get radio play and great reviews from the few that bother to come and see us. It seems a waste of time inviting people to come to these things as invariably they don't turn up. So, it was a waste of time for the venue, the promoter, the sound man and the bands, I assume at some point these venues will close, the promoters will stop, the bands won't have anywhere to play and people will be on here bemoaning the fact that there is no new music anymore.....rant over[/font][/color] [/quote] Yep we find the same. I can't understand the people who say they are coming and then don't. That is a big change in the way people behave.. I think you just have to do it for yourselves and for your enjoyment. If you aren't enjoying it it's not worth it there days.

[color=#3C3241]Back up for sale as it is too nice to drag around as a back-up. It has had a recent set up.[/color] [color=#3C3241]G&L arguably represented the pinnacle of Leo Fender's R&D. This is a great playing and sounding bass with plenty of thump. [/color] [color=#3C3241]This is my back up bass and is in superb condition for it's age. It has a couple of indentations in the body-great for a late 90's bass. [/color] [color=#3C3241]Note: The pervious owner made a reversible mod. : "I have fitted 5 machine screws into the through-body holes, secured with nuts and washers that sit flush in the ferrules on the rear. They are easily removed if you want to string through-body". [/color] [color=#3C3241]The bass sports one monstrous MFD (magnetic field design) pickup with adjustable pole pieces, a volume control, and passive treble and bass controls. There are also 2 switches: one selects series or parallel coils in the pickup; the other brings in the active circuit, which effectively takes the sound of the bass from vintage to modern. Current draw for the circuit is incredibly low - my batteries go out of date rather than running flat! [/color] [color=#3C3241]Any trial Welcome [/color] Trades? A nice quality short scale? [color=#3C3241]Thanks for looking.[/color] -

[quote name='Trueno' timestamp='1472369291' post='3120557'] Style over substance. [/quote] Yes that and it's society and the system, "must have a suit, dark glasses and be called Mr Smith". Two fingers too it.

[quote name='dmckee' timestamp='1472287160' post='3120021'] It's a done deal. :-) Looking forward to getting it next week sometime. Thanks to everyone for all the reassurances. [/quote] Congratulations...I think you scored there

Just search on ebay then look down the search options on the right hand side of the screen

[quote name='tommorichards' timestamp='1472152506' post='3118977'] From the online demo, it does seem like the xotic bb might just be the one. [/quote] That's what I was going to suggest too

[quote name='machinehead' timestamp='1472072573' post='3118334'] Even the 34" Spector and Warwicks will feel two frets farther left than a Fender style bass. It's fine, but if you're regularly changing between them as I was, it becomes more difficult to play without looking at your left hand and I hate having to do that. Frank. [/quote] Yep I found that. As a Stingray player I also struggled miserably to play fretless bass until I got a fretless stingray. Even thought I play 4's and 5's I now I stick to basses with similar dimensions and feel e.g. MM's G&L's. ESP's and the Yamaha BB series work for me also.

[b]EBS Unichorus[/b][font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]...Great condition/boxed with instructions. The same as the one in the vid but it doen't have the word "True Bypass" below the switch so I assume that it is the earlier version.[/color][/font] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Note Chorus works well with lead guitar too[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£60?

Going back to the original thread I understand your pain. I found a real bargain Pinball game and sold it on at the same price to a friend cheap. He had told me for years that it "was the game he always dreamed of owning". When I saw him 3 months later he told me that he had sold it as he had been offered 4x the amount I had sold it to him for.... ..I guess dreams have a price As long as your happy with the price you got that's fine. Once it is sold it's not yours anymore. People can ask what they like.

[quote name='aj5string' timestamp='1471473386' post='3113369'] Was having a play on this in the studio today, and can't stress how beautiful the neck is, and how good it sounds/looks/feels! [/quote] I can confirm the above as it is a very nice neck to play. Rock solid too....I'm still quite attached to it GLWTS -
Don't rule out the SR3000-SR5000 series. I had a SR3005 for a while and it was a fantastic bass. As good a sounding bass as any I have played but a bit complicated for my needs. Good luck with your search

Hi, I tried a few Sandbergs and have owned 4 including 2 Delano powered JM's. I am a sucker for their lovely build and great sound and range when solo. The thing is that whenever I used them live I could never seem to find "the" setting that I was happy with. Either I didn't like the sound or it didn't cut though in my band. I wish that I had found an answer for you but in the end I simply swapped the last Sandberg I had for a Stingray which I just leave flat most of the time. Note: I use GB amps

We're playing on the Saturday evening and are sharing the bill with 2 of my favourite local bands, Karma Control and The Blunders. It should be a great night so hope you can make it. [url="https://www.facebook.com/events/586551644846809/"]https://www.facebook...86551644846809/[/url]

[quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1470835219' post='3108812'] Thanks for the tip off. It IS brilliant! A totally modern and valid album. I know already that I'm going to listen to it alot. Nice one. [/quote] Yep our guitar player put me on to it to listen too in a week when I had to do a lot of travelling. I liked it on first listen and then liked it more on each subsequent listen. "Modern and valid" is a good description,

There is a lot of competition. There was a recent survey done of the value of live music in Bristol UK-population of 449,300 (from the council web site) On one weekday night there were 94 live music events in or around the city. It's a competitive business Details here http://www.ukmusic.org/research/bristol-live-music-census/
