I'll be there adding a touch of class and skill to the proceedings ped

Well all I can add is that Vigier are clearly the leaders in this area ;0) I too can safely say I can tell the difference between a wooden and a graphite neck on a given bass, having owned two basses with both necks for comparison. Never had any problems with graphite necks other than finding one which has no truss rod but perfectly fits my preferred amount of relief (almost zero). the Status had a truss rod but it did very little and wouldn't tighten far enough, but it was close enough. Cheers ped

Well Rich tries but we basically have to put them in a sack and roll him back out of the BC office

Now pass me the brick bag

I thought it was in there, but no matter, we still reserve the right to do what we think serves the forum best, and people having lots of accounts isn't a good thing, in my experience. Especially when they lie about it and do it to subvert the ways of the good nature of the forum, which has happened once or twice. Threads like this may appear funny (honestly, I didn't really get it, but that's me) but it means managing the forum could quickly become a massive ballache - which in the long term means the forum goes under. ped

Yeah and he reaks

Haha, I would have to wrestle such an object from his steely like predator grip and cover myself in mud so he can't see me with his infra red vision. If he sees me I'm going to have to dodge that shoulder cannon and find my way out of the rainforest before he blows us both to hell, so might be easier to go to a skip and find some wood instead. No harm in asking, though (if you can decipher the gurgles and clicks he communicates in) ped

Rumbled!! I might have to ditch the ironing boardlet for a proper wooden shelf at some point; the pink covering is a little too fruity, even for me. ped

Oh so THAT'S what is is!!! Well I can't think of a better use for it!! Just been jamming these last few hours, how I have missed playing the bass. To be honest I haven't touched it for a few weeks at least, and I haven't bought a piece of gear for the last year or so. I don't have GAS any more for bas stuff so I can concentrate on my playing now!! ped

I have been draggin' my arse a bit recently when it comes to bass playing. Having just moved house and all sorts of other things I had not taken the time to set up a proper bass practice area in my house. Well today I finally did something about it! It's quite simple, just how I like it. An old Behringer mixer taking a signal from my Roland V-bass and my iPod (or can also be nearby CD player or laptop). The Vbass signal is in stereo so I can play stereo synths and take advantage of the subtle stereo reverbs and so forth. I also feel it 'wraps' around the songs better enabling me to hear myself alongside the recorded track. Sound goes out to my preferred Sure IEMs and bob's yer uncle. Stuck it all on a weird half sized ironing board on a chair. Cheers ped

I had this issue once with one of mine but I switched it all off and on again and it was fine ever since!!

Here's Nellie doing my pedalboard

Contract expired pending new deal!

Would you be able to meet half way rather than post? I don't trust Royal Fail -
Why was 'Bringing up the action ...' thread closed?
ped replied to Clarky's topic in General Discussion
Just found the thread and reopened it - must have been a mistake I guess? Interesting thread, from someone who has his strings VERY low, probably about the same as Mike's (Urb) -
Just playing with my new camera flash, thought I would bung this pic us as the bass is quite nice and clean here for a change!

[quote name='Soloshchenko' post='887632' date='Jul 6 2010, 06:40 PM']Ped, what on earth is your problem man? You asked me to chill out the bumps and limit them to every couple of days, one reads the 2nd July, the next is the 4th. Can I politely request that now I've done as you asked you butt out of the thread? There's nothing in the rules about having a bass on here for a while (some have been on far longer in fact) but you seem fixated on suggesting I'm doing something wrong on here when I'm not. As I've said, I'm in no rush to sell and am now having second thoughts about it anyway after joining a new band. I've had three offers of £420 for the bass which suggests to me it isn't incorrectly priced, unfortunately they have all been from abroad and I don't want to post to Europe. In fact, I will bring the price down, now £400. I hope nothing else is an issue for you mate![/quote] Hi mate PM sent (an apology) - Like I said via PM I definitely have come across as a bit of a prick there... ped
-
And there's today bump as expected... perhaps you need to adjust your price, bumping clearly isn't working!
-
Cheers Rhys - quick bump. May take offers very close to asking price. Cheers ped -
Well there isn't but lets just say 3 pages is rather a lot
-
Can you relax with the bumping a little bit please? Several times a day is rather excessive... perhaps give it a few days in between?? ped
-
Blimey, things move fast around here!! I'll bump it a couple of times and then I'll just keep it!! ped

[quote name='velvetkevorkian' post='881379' date='Jun 29 2010, 09:21 PM']I use Elixirs on all my basses- I hate buggering about with strings so I just stick them on and leave them- the ones I have at the moment have been on about a year or so and still sound great. Fortunately I like the sound as well![/quote] Ditto, got some 1.5 year old Elixirs on which still sound new - I don;t sweat, so they last ages!! For me, feel is everything. ped

Never made 5 string delta metal no, but they did make a small number of 5 stringed fretless basses with phenolic boards. One Arpege model for sale here: [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=578684&highlight=vigier"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.p...ighlight=vigier[/url] Cheers ped

[quote name='Rayman' post='878982' date='Jun 27 2010, 05:20 PM']Super stunning bass, from a rather splendid chap. If you're after a fretless, it doesn't get much better than this beauty.[/quote] Thanks matey very kind of you to say so, The bass is indeed a real stunner.
