[quote name='NevilleRaine' timestamp='1453230552' post='2957697'] Well my scales aren't the best and I seem to get a slightly different reading every time, but it's in the region of 4kg / 9lbs. I'm not sure what they usually weigh in at, but mine does feel a tad lighter than some other Ash SR5's I've come across, and balances nicely. [/quote] I have a similar looking bass but it's fretless and it is pretty light too. Note: I Also bought from PMT on a whim after trying it out and falling for it. I went back in with about 4 guitars to trade as part of the deal and I can say I honestly say I never regretted it. Nice bass, GLWTS -
[quote name='Norm' timestamp='1453154186' post='2956987'] Cheeky thread hijack! My band Kohiba have just completed a new ep & I've just uploaded them to soundcloud. Any listens, likes, shares & comments will be very appreciated! [url="https://soundcloud.com/kohiba"]https://soundcloud.com/kohiba[/url] Cheers, Norm [/quote] That hit's the spot for me Norm in terms of general sound. Lots of energy and an interesting mix of old and new styles. It makes me want to see you play live! I can't really comment on the production as I was listening though my PC

[quote name='gelfin' timestamp='1453121330' post='2956483'] I use my best / favourite bass for gigging and take a spare. After all it's what they were made for. [/quote] Very sensible, I use my precious only for important gigs but as a result end up not playing it as much. I'm getting better though

[quote name='Josh' timestamp='1452811302' post='2953820'] The moral of my story: Always shop with Guitarguitar, they are superior in every way. [/quote] Yes except I had problems with a guitar bought from Guitarguitar a few years back. That mean't my guitar went back and forwards though the post twice and I had multiple calls over a couple of months before it was sorted...the first time it came back the same as I returned it??? They did sort it eventually though and I still have it. They did also give me the option of my returning it rather than sorting the problem but I wanted the guitar.

Yep up for it...just do it

Hi, putting this up again as the first post either got lost or removed?? It's nice and light, well used (see pics of damage), plays well and sounds nice Trades and unlined fretless bass I have a box so can post at cost. Not much more to say really.

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1452777221' post='2953350'] Cutting some of the troublesome high mids would make more sense I think. Much more sensible to get rid of what is causing the problem than try to mask it by adding something else IMO/IME [/quote] Agreed, chances are that you are never going to be truly happy with it.

Thanks, yes I agree those pups hit the spot. A very easy bass to play and live with and cheap enough. Note: If there aren't trades out there I am happy to sell and go looking myself. Note: that is some collection you have there FE

Well I was thinking back to my youth in the 70's but just listened to this. It's only a couple of years old its amongst the good stuff The Stars. [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gH7dMBcg-gE"]https://www.youtube....h?v=gH7dMBcg-gE[/url]

Hi, I have a well used but nice playing USA Peavey Foundation Nice lightweight and plays well with a lovely tone Lined with dot markers I like it fine but would prefer an unlined fretless to avoid confusion when I switch to my other unlined fretless. Alternatively I could sell and have a box to post at cost. Anyone fancy a swap, I'm happy to to add or subtract cash as appropriate?

Hmm this would partner my fretless, nice sounding basses these.

I've had similar problems when I switched from my old Ashdown to GB amplification. I immediately lost the beloved tones that I had been refining over time and found the new tones comparatively sterile. In my case I moved from EMG powered basses to a Stingray and was happy. I think that Markbass and TC are at the most "modern sounding" end of the amplification available so (as suggested) I would try flats and if that doesn't do the trick you are going to have to change something more major.

Maybe add a BB, Harke Bass Attack or VT pedal for aggressive OD

[quote name='keefbaker' timestamp='1452268509' post='2948327'] I've been wondering about that too. Specifically the 5string HH version. [/quote] Stingray gets my vote...no need for two pups in my opinion as it hits most spots with just one. A great system, flats and use a pic or fingers and you have it all there. It also works consistantly with pedals

[quote name='mojobass' timestamp='1452120907' post='2946810'] No-one interested at all? [/quote] Well someone should be at this price. I had a Panther for a while and it was a great bass. I was swapping back up to 5 strings at the time so it had to go but it was definitely one of the best sounding/playing basses that I have had. I have to admit I'm tempted but don't need it so wouldn't use it. GLWTS

Song retention - any tips on how to remember songs?
Pinball replied to Naetharu's topic in General Discussion
I so need assistance here....people can't understand why I can't recall to the words to songs that I wrote but I find it really difficult. -
I saw this band in 2015, massive bass sound and a short scale Burns Marquee I believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yorHgYo1bSU

Well that should sell it, GLWTS Bargain -
I bought an EBS UniChorus from Alex. As described, good communication and a speedy deal. A recommended seller

[quote name='YouMa' timestamp='1451392847' post='2940061'] Couldn't stand Motörhead but loved his playing on space ritual and loved his take on life,gutted,a true icon,always makes me think of my own mortality when someone like this passes. [/quote] I liked Motorhead but loved Hawkwind, Awesome relentless playing, Some of his best work was on this I think. I still enjoy listening to this album now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3395sRfD24

[color=#141823][font=Helvetica]a great quote from him referring to Motorhead: [/font][/color] [color=#141823][font=Helvetica]"Very basic music - loud, fast, city, raucous, arrogant, paranoid, speed-freak rock n roll. It will be so loud that if we move in next door to you, your lawn will die".[/font][/color]
