    Nice pics Tim. I reckon you and Waynepunkdude are vying for the biggest percentage weight loss in the time I've been on BassChat. You both look (almost) like different people. Can you share your secrets with me, haha!

    Hey Mike, there's (ahem) more than a few left! We were optimistic in our order size (doesn't everyone's debut go platinum?) Here's the link mate [url="http://allthequeensravens.com/"]http://allthequeensravens.com/[/url]

    [url="http://www.allanwilkinson.co.uk/node/3031"]http://www.allanwilk...co.uk/node/3031[/url] Bit of a thread revival with a nice review from Northern Sky [size=3]"[font=Verdana]Utterly dramatic, as their name suggests, the music of London-based sextet All The Queen's Ravens has all the theatricality of a burlesque side show, equally matched by the band's dazzling presentation. With a dozen songs written by the outfit's two enigmatic singers Laura Hillman and Charlotte Aggett, together with guitarist Luke John Wills, the band take us on a joyride through a musical landscape filled with a mixture of gospel, flamenco, jazz-tinged blues, folk stylings and Native American chants, each performed with a tight and confident delivery.[/font] [font=Verdana]The energy and flamboyance of the band's live performances is captured on this their debut album, which maintains an attention-grabbing attitude through to the end. With a particular Anglo-Spanish feel, especially of such songs as the enticing opener [i]Aura Negra[/i], the expressive [i]Las Vegas Parano[/i], inspired by Hunter S Thompson's Fear and Loathing exploits and the Fado-esque[i] Profundo. [/i]Completing the line-up is Camilla Johns on mandolin, Clarky on bass and Rob Davies on drums and percussion. A thoroughly engaging debut."[/font][/size]

    ah, here's the thread from StingrayPete1977 in which he points out Spiros are too short for a Stagg unless you get into modification. I'd say its too much hassle for you, Gareth/smaz [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196792-spiros-too-short-l130-wasted/page__hl__stingraypete1977"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/196792-spiros-too-short-l130-wasted/page__hl__stingraypete1977[/url]

    [quote name='Mr Bassman' timestamp='1383697365' post='2267988'] With some strings one can shave an inch or two of silk away as long as a dab of glue or nail varnish is applied to prevent further unravelling. [/quote]good point, Keith! Many thanks

    PM'd back. Since I decided to keep the cab in August it's not left my house once as my combo has been loud enough for our gigs so realistically I don't see me ever using this cab, which remains in minty condition. Hence it's back up for sale Edit: and yes I had insomnia when I wrote that post

    Try going into Edit Profile, then Manage Attachments and delete old photos. That's probably what is stopping you uploading ie you have reached the memory limit on BC

    Hi Tom, I've played Silver Slaps and they're (if anything) slightly too low in tension for my bass and I am not overly keen on the thuddy E. Most likely I will just stick with the Blues and bide my time until someone on BC or TB puts a set up for sale!
  17. Clarky
    If its a Stagg, I would drop Stingray Pete a PM to check which strings fit. I vaguely recall he had some issues swapping strings on his Stagg regarding the silk lengths at the bridge end , but I could be mistaken. Worth being on the safe side before you shell out hard-earned readies!
  18. Clarky
    Last call before I (gulp) consider paying up for a new set (they are so pricey that I may just stick with the Blues)

    I have a tiny blob of tippex on the 'far side' of my double bass neck at the octave as its so bloody far away its useful when looking down the neck to get a sense of bearing
  20. Clarky
    Hey there! I would say these are a bit high tension for an EUB. In my experience, people with EUBs tend to prefer low tension strings (eg Spiro Weich if wanting steel strings, Innovation Silver Slaps if wanting a gut-alike) and these are medium tension. Wouldn't want you to buy them and then find they are a slightly too much like hard work

    I have been playing [i]Velvet Blues[/i] on my 3/4 bass for the last several weeks and really enjoy them. Got lots of compliments on the tone at the Bluegrass weekend. Only trouble is they are touch too bright and sustain a little longer than I would ideally wish for. I foolishly sold (yes, I know ...) a set of [b]Velvet Animas[/b] some months back and now realise their darker, thumpier tone suits my German flatback bass really well. So does anyone have any good condition used Animas for sale?
