  1. Rhythm bass is bloody hard work when you try to do it live.
  2. Otherwise, I'd be tempted. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1960-039-s-Hagstrom-8-String-Bass-Cherry-Red-All-Original-Original-Case-/391333986214?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276
  3. Cheap old semi-acoustic, maybe a Commodore: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bass-guitar-Commadore-/181954282551

  5. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1449316298' post='2922490'] I like the Korg Pitchblack nice and easy to see very accurate [/quote] This. The display is very clear indeed and can be seen under any stage lighting conditions. The mute switch is completely silent (no pops, even with valve amps). And it has a 9V [i][b]output [/b][/i]socket ... if you only use one non-battery fx pedal on your board, then you can daisy-chain it from the Pitchblack and effectively (see what I did there?) turn it into a battery-powered pedal.
  6. Just looked at Google Maps. Why did no one tell me it's opposite Watford Naturist Swimming Club?
  7. I'm guessing the album cover will be a selfie ...
  8. Yup, you need a lot of patience to sell a high-end bass these days.
  9. The jury is still out on Maxwell's Silver Hammer, mind.
  10. Judging by the grain and a slight change of tone/colour (looking at the rear photo) I'd say you're right, but it looks like a very nice piece of work. Doesn't alter the fact that it's still ultimately a bass uke, mind.

  12. https://www.gumtree.com/p/other-musicians-wanted/professional-double-bass-player-wanted/1145095620 Absolutely nothing to do with me, but thought it might interest someone.

  14. [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1449223473' post='2921632'] I would blame autocorrect, but surely that would've auto corrected 'eaisy'. [/quote] In that case, what's a "guitrist"?
  15. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1449226221' post='2921673'] Jack Bruce [i]was[/i] an uber-widdler, and to absolutely great effect in Cream. He was the defining musician in that band. Without him, his playing, singing and songs they'd have just been yet another blues band. [/quote] Bloody jazzers ...

  17. I've already got two Ringo Starrs, I don't need another one.
  18. I've tried a few of these, including the Sinsonido and the Traveler. If you have air travel in mind, then IME they're not so great. The Sinsonido for example is just over 36" long; yes, it can be packed down (complete with the plug-in 'wings') into a space not much larger than a cricket bat, but it still won't fit in a suitcase, won't fit in an overhead locker, and falls foul of the hand baggage rules on most airlines. These basses were designed before the huge uplift in security that we're now used to, and are probably more trouble than they're worth. If you're driving or travelling by train, then in truth you may as well take a normal bass. If you also take something like a PJB Bighead, then you're sorted for most holiday situations.
