pain in the *rse as they always want to play big booming bass notes which conflict with what I'm playing. Worked with a really good one doing a theatre project - he's also a bass player so kept right off the low-end and the sound was mint. Hard to find and usually playing in a gazzillion bands/projects

Like many other BC'ers, I can only dream of playing in such a prestigeous gig, so thank you for sharing

Mine wasn't at all heavy although it was s 4

Cracking basses Sandberg's, I've had a couple I've just bought a Yammy fiver off of @Skinnymanor I'd have been all over this

Bought a Matt black BB735A off Dave Cracking bass, Dave's a great guy and really easy to do business with

So is David Bowie. I'm in a Bowie Tribute band. We interpret his songs and are not trying to look alike or sound alike - check our FB page and you'll see why (no apologies for attempting to get more likes) I like playing with great music with really good musicians, which I get from this band. As long as a band is playing well and I like the music, I'm not bothered who wrote it. Lot's of established artists cover other songs

Just read the news. Very sad! I'll be thinking of him tomorrow when playing my M4V at a gig. Thank you for the music Mike, may you rest easy in Master Luthier heaven!

Agreed.....mind you I'm in a tribute band.

There's something in this I have a Mike Lull (fantastic) a Maruszczyk (nearly as good) and a Bass Collection precision that cost £100, which is not quite as good as the other 2 but not far behind at all. If I gigged the Bass Collection no-one would notice the difference sound-wise and it looks good too. Maybe as I'm an old git I remember the awful cheapo basses and guitars from the 70's which is why I've bought the expensive stuff

The Immigrant Song and a few other Zep classics by JPJ after hearing ramble on and remembering what a lovely melodic bass line that is and just found this by the man himself so will be giving this a look/listen later

I tried learning that one too....I only got half way there 😎

Some i like...strictly for example. They present it like a panto which is entertaining and what the contestants are trying to do is difficult. Me and my lad used to drool over Ola Jordan (my lad is 28, so he's old enough to drool) and the missus worships the show so we always watch it. Some of the Bear Grylls stuff is good too. Now as to Love Island....do not get me started!

I've bought and sold loads of stuff on eBay on here and a few on Facebook. I prefer selling on here though. The key to selling on eBay is to list towards the and of the month, pick a weekend when the fees are £1 (this weekend for example) and make the listing as full as possible. Good pics, complete description etc. I usually for a BIN option, with offers. Always offer courier delivery. Buying off eBay is best if the item is collection only and is near enough to collect. I sold a 2015 Gibson Thunderbird for the full asking and I'd added enough to cover fees. The buyer told me he'd been loot for one for a while and when mine popped up he just hit the BIN button! I've also just picked up a Beyer mic stand in great nick for £15 which was 2 miles from my office.

There's still good stuff to be found...me and Mrs H are addicted to Antiques Roadtrip! The beeb comes up with some good drama, The Capture being a good example. As for adverts, we mostly watch on catch up or delay watching a 9pm programme until 9.15 (using the 15 minutes to make the tea, nip down the shop for some choccie biccies etc) and then fforward through the dreadverts.....Simples! (oh bugger, they've got me)

Really....you guys n gals watch this shizzle...???

They're fab basses, but not known by the general public.... enjoy

I had a blue Sandberg just like it....and a single pick up job but in Sunburst. Fantastic basses especially for that money Enjoy!
