[quote name='Doddy' post='551242' date='Jul 25 2009, 05:44 PM']There are so many great upright players around. But some of my favourites are guys like Christian McBride,Ray Brown,Paul Chambers,NHOP,Ron Carter,John Patitucci,Eddie Gomez....there are just too many to mention or think of right now. I nearly forgot.......Edgar Meyer is particularly awesome.[/quote] +++1

Their [url="http://www.shadow-electronics.com/doc/pro_pdf1/en-GB/SH_965_Manual_englisch.pdf"]instruction manual online[/url] is certainly lacking a bit. They don't mention having to alter the surface of either the bass or pickup prior to mounting and make it sound and look so easy. Will you be able to reset your sound post ok? It may be a case of a luthier job to install the pup and reset your sound post.

heh heh... at least you stick to your principles. If you don't get along in a band setting there's no real point as you won't be playing "together". Hope you find something soon bud.

[quote name='dannybuoy' post='513488' date='Jun 14 2009, 06:44 PM']Not 100% sure I want to get rid of this... It sounds great and plays brilliantly but after trying and buying various basses over the years, I've come to the conclusion that I'm a passive Fender P-Bass guy![/quote] Not being silly but, have you thought about rewiring this with just a vol and tone per pickup? I bet even wired passive, this thing would sound lovely. -

[quote name='hubrad' post='529640' date='Jul 1 2009, 02:59 PM']That would be funny synchronicity.. I thought I recognised the band name - we were talking outside the Holmfirth gig just after your set on Friday. Me and the wife had chips(!) and I was playing guitar upstairs apres-gig. Must practice guitar.. [/quote] Blimmey, how are you mate? Small world. Nice chatting with you and your wife. You guys must have been roasting upstairs by the time you went on. It was an oven when I left before LL's last tune, plus the smoke was thick as well. Did the crowd stick around?

There seems to be a lot of love for a Markbass LMII paired to a Bareface Compact or Bigone. Also, there's a Warwick rig in the for sale section. Guess it depends on your budget and the sound you're looking for. Good luck and good to hear your playing again. Cheers,

[quote name='thisnameistaken' post='529176' date='Jun 30 2009, 10:31 PM']Are the necks on these basically like a P-bass? Or chunkier like the old Ibanez basses from the late '70s - early '80s, something like that? I've never had one but I like the look.[/quote] Hard to explain their profile. They are wide at the nut (~ 44 mm) but the necks are more flat than the Fender C/D profile. They're very playable and robust but not similar to anything else I've played. I'm not far from York if you want to check it out.

This is now sold Here for sale a mighty T-40. Believed to be 1979 ish in age. A couple of knocks and dings but very playable and that ultra wide range of usable tones. All in working order. I'm selling because I need a new cab. I damaged my gigging rig . Cheap sale and a bargain at £235 + P&P. Comes with used hard case. EDIT: Looking for a straight sale with this, no swaps thanks.

[quote name='AlexLong' post='515520' date='Jun 16 2009, 05:44 PM']Can anybody suggest what to do before the dreaded ebay??? anyone??? Alex[/quote] Bass Gallery in London? local Gumtree? Any big music shops around where you could put up an ad? Local papers? Times are tough right now, especially for more expensive items. Keep at it. It's a great instrument and should eventually sell.

[url="http://www.projectsandhobbies.com/bassfiddlesetup.htm"]This link[/url] may help a bit. If you're unsure about any procedure, get on 'tinterweb and research it. Read all about it and get yourself well informed about not only how to make changes on an instrument but also what affect those change may have. There's nothing wrong with going in the deep end as long as you can swim

[quote name='TheRev' post='503565' date='Jun 2 2009, 09:55 AM']One of [url="http://www.gelbass.com/bass/bass4FN.html"]these[/url]. I've not even so much as seen one in the flesh but they've got such a good reputation that I don't think I'll be disappointed. Only one more sleep......[/quote] oooh, that's nice. Enjoy and give us a review

What sort of sound are you after? The Innovations are another good choice. A darker sound but lovely none the less. £75 on ebay.
