[quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1497379405' post='3317723'] It's the one bass I have no desire to own. Don't like anything about it. [/quote] yep me also

[quote name='Mickyk' timestamp='1497391031' post='3317856'] So come guys get recommending,i'm finding myself wanting to play funk a lot ,so i guess my Yamaha BB424 came from the factory sporting roundwounds although this i'm not totally sure about ,unless someone can enlighten me. Any way if that be the case then i'm in the market for some Flats,so can you recommend me some,but bear in mind i have short arms but long pockets . [/quote] There's always folk selling flats they didn't like on the "other items" forum, just pick some up from there and try them for peanuts.

This comes up a lot Fender flats get my vote for cheap cheerful and quite good enough to test the water

I never found it to be a problem If it gets in your way just lower it

i found him very inspirational. At the time I was slowly realising that the six string was not for me and his bass was the first I really noticed.

Staff kept telling them, they ignored staff Bankers

Back home now after an eight hour oddesey Huge thanks to the builders at premiere inn for making my disabled child run the gauntlet of all their noise despite me asking them repeatedly to stop just long enough for us to enter the building without her being in obvious distress And they used all the disabled spaces as well. everyday

[quote name='fiatcoupe432' timestamp='1496778422' post='3313829'] man some good places to visit down here . make sure you visit bantham blackpool sands , dartmouth , dartmoor , burgh island , lots of nice places . when are u coming down? [/quote] As above, I'm here now but with the troops

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1496661866' post='3313001'] Anybody else with me that thinking the dead spot problem is wildly over exaggerated? Yes, there are basses with dead spots... but there are not in abundance like basschat folklore would suggest? [/quote] I've never owned one

I'm here now mister. Looking for guitar shops and the like. I saw a few six strings in a window somewhere in Paignton but that could have been a crack converters

Any shops to recommend ?

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1496652822' post='3312900'] +1 to all the good things said above about meeting Basschatters for deals, or even just a drink, and attending bashes. Honourable mention for the London Bass Guitar Show too, which is teeming with Basschatters every year. And don't forget the non-bass-playing other halves. I have met Mrs CamdenRob, Mrs Grangur, Mrs Sharman, the lovely soon-to-be Mrs Dave Swift, as well as Mrs Hamster and Mrs Silverfoxnik, and found them all supportive, great fun and always willing to help out. [/quote] I forgot ms bluejay who tracked me down in the ground floor of Westminster bridge mac Donald's, despite zero mobile signal

I've met grangur, gremlinandy, homer and walman (I think). All have been top. I work with Norris.

[quote name='T-Bay' timestamp='1496605576' post='3312660'] Gentle negative term, don't think there is a US equivalent. [/quote] Difficult, awkward, martinet, hardass, jerk, dickwad

Wednesday I think

no, quite right. I'm also a little uncertain why they would be turned over so quickly.

[quote name='thegummy' timestamp='1480165589' post='3182143'] I've heard that but does it not leave it unfinished and vulnerable? [/quote] I just use a fresh dish sponge (the rough green side) and take the shine off

i'm in the outskirts of mansfield - but not for much longer. Whitwell is sadly a little far as I have to work around child bedtimes and be available quickly in case they wake.

Quite enjoyed that actually

I'm assuming that's in welsh ? Even though I don't understand it, It's a beautifully done song and she can both sing and play ** in small print ... nice looking lady as well. (In a nice way)
