  1. Play the C on the E string with your index finger, then use your little finger for the for the D#, 3rd finger for the high D, index finger for the C and little finger for the A#. That's how I play it anyway
  2. Thanks for the kind words peeps! Yup on second thought I should have shut the wardrobe door

    Bass looks lovely mate! I can attest to the value of the Stingray...I've currently got a fretted 4 and a fretless 4, and had a 5er until recently, I got all of them for sub-£800, and I'm really not quite sure how I managed it Right place at the right time I guess. They are fantastic basses though, and if I had the cash I'd probably pay your asking price for it! As others have said, welcome to BC, we hope you stick around! (But your wallet will regret it )
  4. Not the best example as the sound quality is sh*te, but you get the basic idea: Also please excuse the sync issue, the sh*te playing, and intonation issues. On second thought, why the hell did I even post this video?
  5. [quote name='ezbass' post='686749' date='Dec 16 2009, 08:11 PM']Fretless MM played with a pick through an octave pedal (a bit of chorus won't go amiss either).[/quote] That's exactly what I do. Fretless Stingray, Boss OC-2, Analogman Chorus. I play it with fingers though cos I suck with a pick
  6. Don't know if this counts, but I had a Lakland DJ4 and a DJ5 at the same time. Also used to have triplets in that I had a Stingray 4, a Fretless Stingray 4 and a Stingray 5 The 5 is gone now, but I still have the Fretted and Fretless 4's
  7. [quote name='Jigster' post='685784' date='Dec 15 2009, 09:54 PM']did this sell?[/quote] Not yet! Still for sale
  8. Wow. Didn't expect the Phaser to be second cheapest!! Tube Phaser...sounds interesting!
  9. I have no idea what kinda price these usually go for, but that green fretless is particularly fetching
  10. That is gonna be one seriously nice bass. I'm absolutely in love with my Shuker jazz, and that orange colour is awesome. Hope it turns out to be exactly what you were after
  11. I always try to keep all my gear in tip top condition. Whatever condition I acquire them in is how I want to keep it. For example, my Stingrays are both in immaculate condition, you'd never know they were 2nd hand. My 1982 P-Bass on the other hand has loads of knocks and dings. My Shuker is somewhere in the middle, only having a couple of very minor dings. They all receive the same amount of love and care, no matter what condition. As long as I personally haven't done any damage to them, I'm a happy bunny
  12. Thanks, will notify him!
  13. Hi guys, Here for sale is my Dad's 75 Re-issue Jazz. It's a lovely playing and sounding bass, but after playing my Shuker my Dad has decided he wants one of them, and needs to shift this to pay for it It's natural with a black pickguard, maple neck and fingerboard with black block markers and binding. It's in mint condition, so looking for around £850. Buyer pays postage, although pick up would be preferred! Dad's phone number/email can be obtained via PM, if you would like to speak with him directly without having to go through me Cheers James
  14. [quote name='51m0n' post='679622' date='Dec 9 2009, 09:58 PM']I use a MAxon AF9 and that has buckets and buckets of low end. Also have an MXR auto-Q nice sound, just the one and very different from the Maxon, so much so that both together is also very cool.[/quote] +1. I've owned both in the past (Auto Q twice!) and they're both fantastic pedals. If I'm ever in a state where money is no object I'll probably get both, or a Prometheus as this can do everything both units can, just not at the same time.
  15. I've been a long time user of the Korg DT-10 also, but recently the footswitch has started going on mine. A friend of mine warned me it would happen as he has been through about 3 or 4 switches, but I'd never heard of it happening before, and now it's started happening to mine. It's never let me down in any other way before though. Think I might just have to take the plunge on a Strobostomp!
  16. Lovely colour. And I love the white pickup! I miss my SR5 Wish I had something I was willing to trade. Free Bump!
  17. [quote name='bobpalt' post='676458' date='Dec 7 2009, 09:27 AM']'Cos I've got another one! I can only play one at a time.................. Really glad you like her! I suppose I'm really more of an active man at heart. Cheers, Bob[/quote] I see! Bloody hell, if the one you sent me was the LOSER of the 2, you are one lucky son of a...
  18. The colour on that bass is immense. REALLY wish I had the cash now after seeing those last couple of pics
  19. Ok I forgot to take the family shot But after having this bass for a for a few days now and not having stopped playing it, I can attest that it is one of the greatest feeling and sounding Jazz basses I have ever played. Why Bob wanted to sell it is beyond me!!
  20. Fantastic looking (and I bet sounding!) rig there Steve. Congrats!
  21. If I had the scratch I'd jump on this immediately. Lovely colour! Cheers and good luck with the sale!
  22. Very true. I am teaching tomorrow so once I've transported my gear downstairs I will take a new family shot
  23. Thanks Simon. I really couldn't be more happy with it. My Dad has played it and absolutely loves it too! He is now thinking of getting one made by Jon! Haha. One of these days I'm sure I'm gonna wake up, with my room looted and a mysterious note from my Dad saying he and my basses have gone
  24. Me want, but me skint
  25. Wow. Can't say I'm suprised your selling it as I know you too well But Jesus why would you do it?! This holy Grail your after must be something special. Will it cook you breakfast the morning after the gig? Perhaps wipe your arse when you can't be bothered? Those are the only things your Sadowsky can't do so I guess it must be one of the two
