Last call - anyone thinking of coming along?

Met Mrs C in 1987, so nearly up to 26 years. I play bass, she cooks sea bass, maybe there's our common bond?

Surely you mean how do I find time to present a book club on TV with Richard Madely? [attachment=135792:461292072.jpg]

Admit it Dave, you were once the bass player for the Wombles

PS, Chris, there was a time when I not only played a Warwick Thumb, but it had (gasp) 5 strings too .... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uI3OsjAAIc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uI3OsjAAIc[/url] A far cry from All The Queens Ravens!

Are you re-considering the other 738 deals we have already done, Chris?

It was all a hollow empty sham Chris

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1369827901' post='2093119'] Banish it from your mind Clarky.................... [/quote] Worry not, Lozz. I am slimming down my collection, not adding to it. Think of it as mid-life crisis moment (the big 5-0 approaches in July, eeek). By tonight I shall happily be playing my Jazz bass again

Listen, don't mention the war(wick)! I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it all right.

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1369818171' post='2092966'] That's complete rubbish, and totally unfair. To me, it looks like a puddle of congealed fat with bacon bits in it. [/quote] Said the man that recently visited a Warwick factory and considered buying one

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1369813747' post='2092910'] You're not Clarky. Where is he?? What have you done with him?? [/quote] Probably delirium caused by sleep deficiency

As a fender fan boy and avowed hater of coffee table fancy wooden tops I should hate this bass. But I don't. I really think its a great looking piece. On sale at BassDirect for £1500 if anyone's interested (its a Warwick Thumb 'Dirty Blonde' - perhaps the name is what's hooking me!) Not buying it but thought I'd post up in case anyone else fancies a pop [attachment=135764:Front.jpg]

I have had second thoughts about selling my '71 fretless (thanks Beedster!) and so I am putting this up FS instead. This being a 1990/1 CIJ hollow bodied A/E Precision fretless. It has a Cafe Walter preamp and a piezo and 'normal' P pickup which can be blended. As is typical for this model (according to Talkbass) the G piezo output is slighly weaker than the E/A/D (apparently as the bridge pressure is lower on the G piezo [there is less tension from the thinner G string than the thicker E/A/D]); it can be remedied by getting a luthier to split the bridge saddle apparently - a fix which is largely invisible - but I was happy blending the two pickups so that the lower piezo output is neutralised by the electric pickup). Whatever, it sounds great live (I used it at our Finsbury gig a couple of weeks back and BCer wwcringe aka Tom commented on it sounding DB-like). For an early 90s bass it's in great nick with just a couple of minor dings. Weighs under 8 pounds The price is what I paid only a couple of months back on BC. Sorry no trades.. These are stock pics of an identical bass as its too dark to take a photo now [url="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ae+precision+fretless&safe=off&client=safari&hl=en-gb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=OsOjUemrB8Sh0QWM94HQCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=768&bih=928#biv=i%7C10%3Bd%7C8aFr5sByvIvnvM%3A"]https://www.google.c...Fr5sByvIvnvM%3A[/url] [url="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ae+precision+fretless&safe=off&client=safari&hl=en-gb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=OsOjUemrB8Sh0QWM94HQCw&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=768&bih=928#biv=i%7C7%3Bd%7C2BMHeE7n3XpN9M%3A"]https://www.google.c...MHeE7n3XpN9M%3A[/url]

Looking good for me coming along. I will bring my BigE 4x5 cab, EA Micro head (thats an amp, not a description of me) and a Fender or two (63P, 75J and/or 71 fretless)

Platinum Pro setting for idiots (me)
Clarky replied to stingrayPete1977's topic in EUB and Double Bass
The user guide is very self explanatory Pete. In practice all you will need to adjust is the EQ sliders (takes a split second) and - if feedback issues - the phase control. http://www.fishman.com/files/pro_eq_platinum_bass_user_guide.pdf -
Threesome in the back garden!! My Fenders
Clarky replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in Gear Gallery
very nice Nick! I am cutting down my collection too. A P, a J and (for my current band as I am not 100% comfortable with it) a fretless -
FAO artisan phographers of the basschat marketplace...
Clarky replied to 1970's topic in Bass Guitars
Sorry OP, very poor quality shots, too much reflection -
I've had both. The 3 series has a more sturdy metal case (2 series is plastic) and a new algorithm on cutting off low frequencies which has a set level and a variable level. TBH, I can't hear the difference, I prefer the 3 series as its less likely to break if it drops on the floor. But that said I've never dropped it on the floor! Horses for courses, both are good
