It would be great if the enthusiasm for the composition competition was also transferred to more music in the 'Recordings' forum. I put up a link a month or so back to a fabulous EP by Jigster's post-rock band Those Among Us Are Wolves and only two BCers commented. Yet there are endless pages of largely repetitive, pointless debate on Flea v Wooten, Fender vs non-Fender etc. Come on BassChat, raise your game! Ps here's TAUAW http://basschat.co.uk/topic/205809-recommended-post-rock-ep-from-bcer-jigsters-band-those-among-us-are-wolves/

Some really excellent stuff here. Shouldn't say what I've voted for but I will say - for me - it was a tough call between discreet's fantastic pumped up trance-come-Tangerine Dream and Steve's beautiful atmospheric six-string work. But honourable mentions for all, really top music from top to bottom of list

Fab, the Rev Solo will also be in the post tomoz -
Thats great, thanks Keith I have a FC on my flatback and its very good live, especially at higher volumes. I have an Ehrlund on my Kolstein which sounds very microphone-like and hasn't let me down on a gig or rehearsal yet - but our album launch gig is too important not to have a backup pickup!
-
Hi Keith, that would be great - assuming the FC is right for your bass. Are you sure you want a Rev Solo in place of Bass Max as spare?
-
Last call or I will have to place an order for a new one?

They're certainly good for metal

I lent my spare piezo pickup, a Revolution Solo [url="http://www.uptonbass.com/Double-Bass-Pickup-Revolution-SOLO-II-RS2/"]http://www.uptonbass...on-SOLO-II-RS2/[/url] , to another BCer for six months or so and got it back last week. I had forgotten that its too large to fit the wings on my Kolstein travel bass ... and I don't fancy shaving the wood casing down. However I do want a back-up piezo wing pickup in case of problems with my Ehrlund contact pickup. So ... 1. I can offer a Revolution Solo pickup as a trade for a BassMax or Shadow SH950 2. Or failing that I would like to buy one of the aforementioned, if someone has a spare Unfortunately time is of the essence as we have rehearsals next week for our album launch gig on 8th July and I would like to test the backup pickup in a band environment. I will have to buy new if I can't sort a deal with a BCer quickly (ie, today!)

Mark bought my 1963 Precision. An utter gent throughout. Clear communications, superfast payment and all conducted in the friendliest manner possible. Cheers Mark and I hope you now have "the one"!

The live album with DiMeola, Lucia and McLaughlin is Friday night in San Francisco http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=DvVmqnNBo9w&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DDvVmqnNBo9w

Steve bought some flatwound strings off me, all good, couldn't have been easier!

If it helps, I assume you are in Camden Rob (hence name) and the Bass Gallery must be very close - they will refret a fretless for about £200 and do a superb job -
EA Micro 550 with padded bag and DI cable * SOLD *
Clarky replied to Clarky's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Addendum - I include £10 postage cost within UK. Post to mainland Europe would be about £20-25, ie, all-in cost about £390-395 to France/Germany/Belgium etc depending on fast or economy service -

Clarky replied to Clarky's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Sorry but in answer to a couple of PMs this is sale only. I already have too many amps (four) which is why this lovely piece of kit is for sale! -
EA Micro 550 with padded bag and DI cable * SOLD *
Clarky replied to Clarky's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Bump. Hard to find anything as tiny as this with as much power - 2.3 pounds delivering 550W of clean, quality amplification -
Looks like this is sold pending the usual
-
maybe its not the cost but the bureaucracy and paperwork? in any case, Francis Deck has made his design openly available for people to copy. Perhaps Orchid/A.N.Other are missing a trick here?
-
fdeck don't have a CE mark (or whatever the European official designation is for a tested instrument) and its proprietor Francis Deck can't afford to spend the money to get one. As a consequence he sells to the US market only. Hence you need a middle-man to get one outside the US
-
Trial didn't work out so this is still FS. I have a couple of BCers with 2nd and 3rd dibs but in case they drop out, just flagging this up
-
A big thank you from me too - Gareth (walbassist) had a trial of my Fender A/E fretless and it developed an electrical problem. Dave re-soldered and tidied up all the electrics, all at no charge as we were both BC'ers. What an absolute gent and a star!

In case anyone interested, Vicente Amigo is playing at UNion Chapel, Islington on 24th September. He will be playing his flamenco/celtic fusion project Tierra http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06o459Z59zE
-
takes 2-3 weeks as Francis Deck is a one-man band who has to send his pedal to caeman first, who will then send on by the always-slow US postal service. But a very useful preamp and - as I mentioned - caeman is a friendly guy. I f you can't get hold of him I believe bassace (Roger) got his via Talkbass' drurb as middle man (his real name is Les and he seems to be one of the more senior/respected DB players there)
