Come clean Stuart - I just know you have this in the pipeline. I'll buy one now!

Hi I've got quite a few mates in NZ who've deserted this sinking ship called the UK! Welcome!

Hi Martin The CS-3 has a very good compressing effect but it's a bit too noisy for me. You do loose some low end running a bass through it as it's circuit is designed for the higher register of a guitar.

Amazing bass finish! Merged with Ritter Thread (same subject!)
Hamster replied to JakeBrownBass's topic in Gear Gallery
Finishes like that usually leave me a bit cold - but that is really stunning :wub: -
Thanks guys I usually learn by ear but I'm usually surprised by something in the tab that I've never noticed while listening - that's why I'm re-learning notation!
-
Can anyone point me towards an accurate tab for this song? - I've got the basic structure but I think there's a lot I'm missing. I'm learning notation again as a new year's resolution but I'm not there yet!! Ta

[quote name='ShaunB' post='380032' date='Jan 14 2009, 10:07 AM']Thanks for that - no takers... and no offers as yet...[/quote] I don't think it will be on here past a week - very nice -
High quality 'Jazz' bass with a slim neck - now traded

Nice bass. The colour's a bit dark on my monitor - is it a solid gloss black? -
Nice cabs - where are you based?

Cheers guys - I've just dropped them an e-mail.

'All original'. What does it actually mean....?

It's got to be #1 - As it came out of the factory. -
[quote name='budget bassist' post='378328' date='Jan 12 2009, 09:59 PM']What on EARTH is that?[/quote] It looks like two of those prototype 3 string Fender basses that have been glued together? A bit of work with a power sander and drag it behind a car for a few miles and you have a relic'ed 'Roadworn' 6 stringer.

As this is purely for academic research please send me the lot to academically research too!

I signed on the dotted cyberline - and I do believe in miracles

You should be able to make a paper template up and then get a blank sheet to make one from your fave colour/finish. [url="http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/category/Pickguards/Blank_Pickguard_Sheets"]http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/category/Pickguar...ickguard_Sheets[/url]

Go on then - for a tenner I might actually get on with it!

Some fine basses there - I feel your pain!

[quote name='Buzz' post='376232' date='Jan 10 2009, 04:06 PM']Leave it fretboard down in the sun for a few weeks?[/quote] Won't that mean leaving the UK! - Mind you, a damn fine excuse for a month in the Maldives

I don't think bleach will touch it because the orange dye is under a coat of laquer. I sanded my SX neck down to the wood and then just put a coat of clear laquer on top of the natural wood. It looks much better.

Got another cable from Dave - it arrived quicker than me popping down the shops - and Dave's cables are always 'in stock' because they're handmade
-
I've got an Audere preamp fitted which is really good. It was a big improvement on the stock board. The standard pickups are Bartolini Mk1 split-coil soapbars. Maybe I just have a few quid burning a hole in my pocket? I'm still toying with the idea of a fatstack and a big single - or maybe EMG's?

It's not very busy, but if we have the server space, why loose it?
-
I think the 3 string bass would be more a break from the norm!
