I think anyone can edit the Wiki but for some reason I can never log in to it. I am not a big fan of the wiki thing anyway - inevitably the same questions will come up on the forum every now and then but it gives other people a chance to answer and get stuck in to the forum and help each other out, which is what the forum is about in my eyes. One or two stickies are cool but to be honest I never used to read them when I was a young forumite.

All sorted now - I emailed the server people and they sent me this:

"Someone was running a denial of service attack against your VPS. I have blocked the attack and this should all be back to normal"

Awww I missed it ;0)

In keeping with (mad) Fender trends I would expect the older one to cost more he he

Hehe yeah probably

I found the bassmute was a good alternative to foam inside the cover itself. www.bassmute.com

Me too! I have told Ben - maybe something needs updating. Cheers for the heads up.

I find the best tool is the 'U-Box' which is second hand gear from music stores across Japan. Click here for more info - [url="http://www.ishibashi-music.com/"]http://www.ishibashi-music.com/[/url]

The direct URL for the bass section is [url="http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/ubox.cgi?T=gazo&word=2&or8=32&key=&equal1=&value5=&select5=down&print=40"]http://www.ishibashi.co.jp/u_box/ubox.cgi?...wn&print=40[/url] - I keep my eye on it and have picked up some bargains. You can email them directly via the address on the first link and they always get in touch quickly and are very helpful as Jase said. I have never dealt with a more professional and slick online store.

I heard 'dat!

Thanks mate. I was advertising for a fusion piano/keyboard player around Witney/Oxford and heard bugger all! I think I know the Lamb so will see if I can round up some Jazz chaps and scat along to see you.

Cheers

I may be up for a slice of that action ;0)

P.s what's this 'sweetening' business??

Since I got my XT Pro I haven't looked back! Love Line 6!

If its the one I am thinking of then I think it has had a refinish already - so this time it could be considered a re-refin!

Is the plasterererer a bass player? ;0)

[quote name='overwater#1' post='109481' date='Dec 26 2007, 02:29 PM']Will this be coming up here in the New Year with you Ped mate??[/quote]

Sorry Matt, just seen this. If you want to give it a try then I could probably arrange to have it next time I am at the studio if you are interested - which you should be, it is an amazing bass ;0)

Cheers

Hello mate welcome along. I am in Witney so quite close to you. What is your band called? I might come and see you!

Nice stuff. Very nice. Is that the P I saw on TB?

Bacchus sent me a Happy New Year card! What a brilliant bunch they are.

New bass Luke my old chum?

Hi mate,

Nice review. Interesting to see how they stack up against the Hartke (is that my 210 and 3500, I can't remember!!). I know what you mean about hearing more sparkle with a tweeter compared to the XL cab rig - I found that myself but came to the conclusion that with the 10's in the rig I liked the sound of the treble through the cones.

Cheers mate

At the end of the day there are far worse ways to spend the odd grand or so - as long as it is on something special to you personally and something as personal as a bass guitar then who cares what it looks like? sometimes tastes in things cannot be explained down to anything that can be expressed across a message board.

Agreed, some of the prices commanded by 'Jazz copies' seem a little high to me (now playing a quite different type of bass which to my eyes is far more 'engineered' and 'innovative' etc) but then if I look into my past I have owned several and still like 'em.

Any idea who the drummer is?

Beautiful. I have a friend on Talkbass with a sonic blue jazz bass by Bacchus and he rates it above everything he has had.

Rather than post pics here and hijack the thread, you can see my first Bacchus here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99&st=40"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99&st=40[/url] and the second on the page after that.

Good luck with the sale of the Moon bass - maybe someone came into a bit of spare money over Christmas - put down those turkey sandwiches and get yer' wallets out folks!!

Cheers

Great to find another Bacchus fan!! I had until recently a Bacchus 24F and a 02Strong 36" Jazz bass. I have pics I can show you if you like! Both incredible basses, and the best wooden necked basses I have had!
