    I have no evidence, but the previous owner told me it appeared on Trent d’Arby’s second album. It’s an ‘84 I believe.

    Indeed, I think some rehoming is due.

    Sorting out my study I realise that converting to 5 strings a few years back means I have left some old friends behind. Oh well ...

    Nice. May be it’s an age thing, but I find the smoother the music the better it sounds these days.

    I’ve been lucky enough to hook up with a new band, Breathe, during lockdown. It’s given me a chance to get my Stingray 5HH out for this track. Each musician recorded at home and sent in a .wav of their part. Do please have a listen. Track is also on Spotify.

    I have one of these in a sunburst finish. IMHO, these are the easiest 5er to migrate to from 4. A wide but flatter neck profile that’s really comfortable and the same string spacing as the 4 I also have. New owner will have a great bass.

    Your Go To Bass

    Absolutely correct interpretation. My original post is aimed at us enjoying the wealth of favourite basses. My Jazz is a good but not expensive instrument.

    In these troubled times we need to entertain ourselves with some frivolous chat. So, what’s the bass you pick up and noodle on to practice & write? Here’s mine, a MM Jap jazz with an East implant.

    Just purchased an SLB100 from Dan. He also threw in a stand and psu. Easy relaxed purchase, even from Surrey.

    I’m using a PJB BG400 and have the extension cab as well. I’ve found the pickup & preamp to be more important though. I’m now on a DG copperhead and a tonebone pz pre.

    Our new single on Spotify..... Featuring my double bass !!
  21. MJJS
    Last night I tried passing the DG into my Radial Bassbone (which is on my electric bass peddle board). Instant success. Louder, no distortion and much better presented frequency profile. It’s not often an upright player finally gets to push a sax player through the wall using sound pressure!!!

    I use a Broughton HPF set to about 50Hz. I guess I’m seeing high vols well above that setting given the preamp settings I’m adopting.
  23. MJJS
    I’ve just started using a DG copperhead and find the low bass frequencies produced are dramatically higher volume than the upper mids & treble. So my pre amp has the lowest two bands set down at about 25%, where as the rest are flat. Without this I get horrible distortion in the amp. Does this seem familiar?

    This might do the trick .... http://www.contrabass.co.uk/2675.htm Or this https://www.musicalchairs.info/sales/10890?ref=22

    I use a Headway EDB 2 as a preamp on my double bass, with a TC spectracomp in front of it. The notch filter drastically reduces acoustic feedback, the TC ensures a much more even tone from the bass. About £300 for the pair.
