    For a long time I played Silver Slaps and really loved them. I switched to Spiro Weich (after experimenting with various other strings) but recently had a hankering for an earthier sound after listening to a lot of Scott LaFaro .... so I bought a nearly-new set of Silver Slaps on BC for £45. Well hind-sight is rose tinted and I quickly discovered I definitely prefer the Spiros on my old 3/4 bass. So I am selling the Silver Slaps on, less £5 for the small amount of additional silk fraying caused by fitting and removing again. So £40 posted for a good, but not pristine, set of Silver Slaps anyone?

    Reminder-ette in case anyone in West/SW London wants an alternative to seeing Spurs being humiliated by Inter on the TV

    I will be taking the bus this time PS, do you think with my barnet I could pretend to be Rick Parfitt and confuse the punters? [attachment=129060:gosport_050.JPG]

    Looks good for me to be there, esp as I think Status Quo are pants

    [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1362324398' post='1998351'] Which model have got Bilbo and is it any good for moondance? [/quote] It's a flatback so he could cellotape the tab to Moondance on the back of it

    [quote name='Presidente' timestamp='1362314256' post='1998195'] Still on sale? [/quote] The clue is in the title that says * SOLD *

    These are really lovely basses. Have another bump from me

    Update: absolutely lovely the new album. Melodic, slow paced, with lots of music loops and very different from skuzzy blues rock of Grinderman. Best tracks: Jubilee Street (warning NSFW video) which is a real insistent grower of a track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCxHvNl9MmQ and the beautiful Mermaids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4CkPM0LJT4

    [quote name='spacecowboy' timestamp='1362191193' post='1997078'] Awesome playing. [/quote] +1 What a barg for someone that doesn't care about a knock or two. Wish I could play like that!

    Here's an idea, slip the man a few pints and borrow one from (Happy) Jack's Precision Emporium for a couple of weeks and see which you honestly prefer

    Nige, this bass IS you, mate. A P bass is fab (I have two) but unless you are having an extended Scott Thunes moment I don't see you as a P man

    [quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1362150154' post='1996495'] You'll be going for the Softer Ride along with our sound man TC. [/quote] Sounds like a dodgy euphemism

    [quote name='BB2000' timestamp='1362082936' post='1995608'] I don't think this would have lasted a day on talkbass - unfortunately as a group we Basschatter's certainly are a "Dedicated follower of fashion"! [/quote] Absolutely, maybe I should have re-badged my Acme as "Bare-arsed"

    That ain't no Bob Babbitt unless he changed ethnicity!

    Two days after my lot headline there, Ad. Cool to see BC taking over the Half Moon! Will be there if I can

    No longer available - trade agreed

    Two ML112s for sale at BassDirect. So someone can get to try them and form a fair opinion using their own ears ... http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Baer_ML112.html

    No offers yet on eBay so still willing to pull listing for any interested BCer. Would cut to £400 posted via economy (48 hour) delivery service. If these amps had the UK awareness of say Barefaced someone would have snapped my hand off for this already!

    [quote name='RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE' timestamp='1361906256' post='1992909'] You look too polite for that band. A bit like that bloke out of the moody blues (sorry) [/quote] Maybe thats why I play double bass in a "gypsy pop" band full of ... ahem ... not-unattractive women now [attachment=128585:304737_481791265166343_151891584_n.jpg]
