  1. I have the 1505, the one with barts isn't something I would consider having had enough ibanezes with and without barts. I like it and I like the finish, although would also be fine with black too or even grey. Its a very useable bass and I like fan frets. As others said the strings aren't as long as other fan frets, I was very keen on getting a spector dimension but the price went up just when I had decided and then there was all the faff with the pickup. Still interested in the shorter scale one (unfortunately only barts so would need work) and the fretless.
  2. Yeh, what they didn't say is that if you wait for too long you end up with a 9 week wait before your pedalboard is going to turn up!
  3. the NS:Stick has a lever to have a damper or not, which was useful
  4. I have used one - I don't currently because there isn't anything I need it for, but I don't see any reason not to use one if it makes something easier
  5. He did it well, can barely see the join!
  6. Have the same thing from ebay. It works, not sure I would want to use it live, but it is good in the house
  7. Thats a little irritating, been there, seen that, didn't get the tshirt. Was that 5 minutes away from a 5 minute away venue or 5 minutes away from an hour away venue? I did have that '20 minutes loading the car, shut the boot, phone rang' cancellations once which was a bit irritating.
  8. Its what I have and am happy with - but it is all back on this thread.
  9. Oh that. Well, within a post, all posts are sequential in order, because that is the way that conversations work, and it would be a bit confusing if that was backwards. However, within a forum the default sorting is most recent (although you can change that order if you like) because it makes more sense that way. As I said, you can change the order of the forum posts if you want, you can't change the order within a thread though.
  10. You find a bass you like in the marketplace and send a message to the person selling it
  11. New posts should always be on the last page of a thread, but thread numbering is literally just the order they turn up, but the two are not really related, so I am not sure I understand the question!
  12. Of course it is mass produced - maybe not in big quanitities, but there is a pattern and loads are produced the same way. Your LX euro 5 is the same as the next guys one, maybe a different colour, but same things in the same place. Same as Rics, even though not many are made, the concept is the same, you make a series of bodies / necks / electronics, then go down a line putting them together. If a luthier makes an individual instrument, they start with a chunk of wood, shape it, get other bits, put it together, work on it, then finish it off - there aren't a load of people doing separate stages.
  13. Ours too - luckily there are enough bands to knock the Oasis songs out, so we don't all have to!
  14. How many songs can you play at a time with fingers then?? I am pretty much a one song at a time sort of player.
  15. Wouldn't have a problem with that one - its the one by Eric 'who let all these brown people in here - theres someone wearing a mask' Clapton. hmm.. like the Gig scene in The Wall, but way less interesting.
  16. I have a ban on that for the group that I am in anyway, so it doesnt' really feature. THere are some songs on the set list that I don't actually like as songs, but don't mind playing that much. And I guess some that I don't mind as songs because I enjoyed playing them.
  17. Knocking on heavens door or Cocaine. Both terminially dull songs to play (and listen to) that I have managed to remove from set lists. I wouldn't really call sweet home particularly dull, there is quite a lot you can do on it.
  18. Maybe have a lesson with someone to see if they can identify what the issue is?
  19. Sounds like a much better idea if what you want is a battery powered combo. The sparks are a more an integrated practice thing with quite a software back end to them.
  20. Ebony isn't a CITES listed wood as far as the US is concerned, so you can get an export licence, which should give you an automatic import, but to be sure, best to email [email protected] to see if it is ok with them
  21. What synth do you need?
  22. There seem to be a few around like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283412942973 but no, shouldn't be too much of an issue.
  23. I have a spark, it is great and I use it a lot. I almost bought a spark mini two days ago as it was on a weekend offer of £159 and I like the battery thing but once you got to checkout it was £196 and that was more than I wanted to pay, I figured wouldn't be great for bass anyway with those speakers. The spark isn't really, it is just good enough, but in headphones obviously fine
  24. I made a joke forgetting you don't get jokes, then you got all upset about it. my fault that I forgot you didn't get jokes, sorry, move on, nothing to see here
