It would have to be for that price. All i can say to someone who can afford that, is enjoy yourself…… -

Another one bites the dust - London Guitar Shops.

Ive walked past that shop so many time over the years, always past it in to Park Cameras though. -
I got this last year from Bass Direct. Its about 7 months old and only really used on my desk at home plus about 3 rehearsals. Ive been using my GP-5 and now GP-50 so much this is just gathering dust. im also eyeing up the new Bass Driver Elite so this will not really get used anymore. Works perfectly and has never missed a beat. I've never used the original PSU so thats still in the box as it came, along with all the paperwork/sticker etc. Looking for £180 posted Track24 to mainland UK, or £175 for collection in central London. You are welcome to come and try it, but as i live in a flat it will have to be at a very low volume, or with headphones.-

Anyone used a dB Technologies B-Hype 8 for bass practice?

Got asked to turn down last night at rehearsal. Job done 🤣 The Bluetooth really comes in handy. There are those that have to 'have a listen' to the recording because they didnt do their homework. Streaming to the Alto from my phone is a lot better than someone holding a phone up to a mic. -
Anderton's are normally my first port of call (after Amazon), but I had a hiccup with my GP-50 that I got from them them 17th Dec. I contacted them on the 16th Jan. They said 'We can arrange an exchange with you, provided you can return the item in the condition it was received, with all original content & packaging'. so after 4 weeks of use they expect it to be as brand new, otherwise they dont want to know? I now think twice about using them. As it happens I managed to kick start the box and its been fine ever since

When we first started learning Hanging on the telephone it was at a time when we had no drummer, so was using a drum only backing track. We, more or rather the bass player, kept getting the gap wrong between the first and second verses. He insisted he had been practicing it all week and no way was he wrong. Started to have a go at the backing track being wrong. Even after i pointed out the drum track was actually the drum stem off the record, and it was Clem playing it he wouldn’t have it, although he did start to back track a bit. 🙄

Since getting back from the Broken Peach gig my singer wasnts to cover their version/mash up of One way. Not sure the band are going to grasp it. Too stuck in their ways to want to be entertaining.

Did you look at the size charts?

My feelings 100%. I do prefer the IE400, but after using the IE100 for almost a year without realising they were swapped with the IE100 by the mistake, id have no hesitation using either and wouldn't look elsewhere except customs. I have very flat ears though.

There are cheaper tips available. I like Comply but have also use the cheaper ones with good results. Comply also do various shapes as well as sizes. Lots of options to try. Id also look at the Sennheiser IE100’s (before getting the 215’s) which a few of us like. These are low profile and you might find the fit a bit better as there can be less pull due to them not having less bulk. Although single driver they sound full and punchy.

I think even Nigel Harisson clocked that one back in the day.....😇

Well he is a punk bassist 😀
