  1. To add on the Heritage, they do a pretty fair imitation of gut, considering they are steels. Witness the amazing Phil Palombi playing the reconstructed bass of the late great Scott LaFaro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fqQ9dCk9oU
  2. It's a guy called caeman http://www.talkbass.com/forum/member.php?u=126759 very friendly, you PayPal, he orders and posts on

    Statistically speaking it must have been one of Milty's posts
  4. haha the manageress (Laura) is the singer in my band. Its where we recorded our retro video, Aura Negra. Small but good vibe
  5. Cheers Tom and it looks virtually brand new too. I am surprised it hasn't been snapped up but then again the same applies to loads of other good stuff for sale on BC
  6. Kev bought a set of Velvet double bass strings off me. Friendly comms, fast payment, all good. Cheers!
  7. Wowzer that went fast and not hard to see why! So who's the lucky dude?
  8. Keith and I continued our BC pass-the-parcel (of double bass strings) game. Ever the gent, our Keith
  9. [quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1371677795' post='2116979'] That is a wicked tune mate! Right up my street - even Mrs.'tone liked it. She said ,"Ooo that's good, who's that?" I told her and she said,"That's much nicer than that other rubbish you've been listening too!" Needless to say the Brand X hasn't been going down too well! Cracking tone there Clarky, really smooth. What strings are you using? [/quote]cheers for that! The strings are Rotosound Tru Bass, the big fat black nylon strings as used by Herbie Flowers, Jah Wobble and Macca
  10. and finally, errr, here's me playng a fretless P [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v4PAaY7XU4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v4PAaY7XU4[/url]
  11. Bad Company's Boz Burrell also extensively used a fretless P [attachment=137232:boz.jpg]
  12. Erm, BC's very own wateroftyne? [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhdDipy8MB0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhdDipy8MB0[/url]
  13. Haven't played there for a few years but the Underworld in Camden certainly used to be a focal point for the heavy rock/metal/thrash scene Also could try The Purple Turtle in Camden?
  14. Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (as nicked by Beach Boys for Lady Lynda) [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwWL8Y-qsJg"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwWL8Y-qsJg[/url] First dance was Sweet Love by Anita Baker (which dates us a lot! 1991 it was) - aaaaaahhh [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEHdYngIDuY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEHdYngIDuY[/url]
  15. Good stuff Keith, these are my spare set (have Spiro Weich and Mittel sets on my basses now) so I hope I don't break a string!
  16. The strings are about six months old and have years of life on them but the silks are a little ragged (see picture), having been on and off my basses a few times while I have been on the usual 'string odyssey' (why [i]are[/i] Spiro silks so fragile?). Anyway these are £115 + post from Thomann so how about £60 posted? [attachment=137157:DSCF0365.JPG]
  17. This is on trial for a week with a BC'er
  18. Oops me again. Roger and I just did an amp/cab trade in a quite posh services station. As ever, Roger was thoroughly charming and accommodating
  19. Hadn't occurred to me but thats excellent! Right Said Jack
  20. "Sexy and I know it" [attachment=137117:post-2944-0-33585600-1367837281.jpg]
  21. but at least he didn't get charged a £20 fee
  22. I have used a Bassmax in the G slot too with good results on my little Kolstein travel bass, which is surprisingly boomy and thumpy for a downsized DB
