  1. Nice! The 5 string shortie market is pretty limited but there’s some nice looking basses out there it sees when they pop up on here … I didn’t realise the Embassy did a short scale, I thought they were all 34” and the Newport was their short scale offering?
  2. What a great thread 👌 Thanks for sharing!
  3. Gorgeous 👌 Great story too! Enjoy.
  4. Well I’ve had the Chromes on for around a week now and gigged them on Saturday night! Very much enjoying them so thanks for all advice! I’ve never really enjoyed flats in the past but these seem to be exactly what i was looking for on this bass. I think i need to spend a little more time with the EQ to get a little bit more high end coming through but in honesty, the soundcheck tone checking time was spent trying to fight an electrical buzz so it finished up a little rushed. It’s ended up being an expensive string month for me as i still had an itch to try the EB Cobalts, so due to seeing them for £20 on sale on ‘Bezos emporium of everything’, I grabbed a set for my Jazz. Put them on today and I’m well impressed so far! They do sound like nice rounds and the tension is lovely! I’m still happy with the chromes on my SS though, as the price of the SS Cobalts is around £30 more than i paid for the LS! Anyway, thanks for everyone’s help.
  5. Doh! I do apologise! Ive got this thread confused with the Birmingham bass show! I can’t make this as mentioned above, I’ll get my coat now! Enjoy everyone 👍
  6. Is there a nod and a handshake I should know to meet fellow Basschatters? 👀
  7. I messaged Labella about Super Polished shorties and they pointed me in the direction of their ‘Stang super polished’ no idea whether they’re suitable as most are through body… I also messaged Ian Martin Allison and asked if it was likely they would release his IMA super polished strings for SS and he said that they’ll be coming this year.
  8. Sounds fantastic, as does the whole band! Thanks for sharing! I wish audiences could all have the same energy as the chap in the white suit! Absolutely great to see, he’s just having the best time!
  9. You’re correct in this. I couldn’t wait so grabbed a set of Chromes off Amazon. Hopefully I’ll love them, if not there will be a set for sale very soon 😅

    I know we’re here for the Jazzes but that P looks very nice 👀
  11. Don’t discount the TC BH250. It sounds really great, with effective and simple EQ. It’s very, very compact. It has aux, headphone out (and usb) for home use. A built in, useable visual tuner and a mute. And, it has one Toneprint which is very good. (I’ve basically set it to a compressor and leave it…And, it’s only £175 new. I love the Ashdown sound though so I’m keen to try one of these Ants.
  12. Thanks for everyone’s feedback on this. I’m leaning towards some D’addario chromes i think. But, like with everything bass related (or life related) I won’t really know until i try myself. I think my plan is to see if i can pick up some used short flats off this very forum when they appear and give them a whirl to decide if i like them on that bass before i chuck a sizeable chunk at some new ones! (I’m being a StringCheapSkate, i know. But the prices are ludicrous for a smaller string) Up until very recently I’d come to terms with just not being able to get on with flats but since putting some cheap ones on my Jaguar, it’s transformed the bass so I’m wondering if its just a case of finding the right strings for the right instrument… go figure 😅
  13. I dread to think how many marketing emails from ScottsBassLessons you’ve missed out on in the last 15 years 👀
  14. Not sure if I’ve missed the mention of Sterlings new 4 & 5 Plus models. I can only see EB launches on here. Anyway…
  15. This is a good shout. But, am i correct in thinking they only make Roundwound? Thank you
