The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
scrumpymike replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
As the owner of an electro-acoustic Gillet (the black nylon-coated strings are standard OE) and ex-owner of a few Maruszczyks I agree that these strings and Adrian's basses are definitely a mis-match. -

This one comes with black nylon-coated flats and I'm looking forward to hearing how that sounds. I looked at a few online reviews a while back and seem to recall one of the reviewers saying the Mullarkey sounds awesome with those strings. Mark at Bass Direct reckons they're one of the best kept bass-playing secrets out there. -

Thanks Clarky, that's reassuring to hear. -

YEEE-HAAA!! Just bought a pre-owned Wlcock Mullarkey from Bass Direct 🙂 Same colour as the one recently sold on here by Clarky but with a scratch-plate from the red end of the tort spectrum. Will be delivered Tuesday - can't wait. Watch this space! -
And here's the last instalment from the prolific lens of of resident Bash photographer-cum-food dispenser Janey Scrumpette. As the last shot shows, it was just about warm enough for a few hardy souls to dine 'al fresco'. As in previous years, special thanks are due to Phil Starr for his thought-provoking (and myth-busting) shoot-out, and to Stevie for bringing a selection from his truly excellent range of LFSys FRFR cabs. I've had a top-of-the-range Monaco for a few years now and wouldn't use anything else. If you're thinking about investing in any of his products, don't hesitate. You won't regret it. HALL BOOKED FOR SUNDAY 11 OCTOBER 2026!! 🙂

I'd like Ibanez to increase their s-s range. I've got lots of time for the brand as far as value for money goes. -
And the real answer is - 10am. But we'll be there from 8.30 and anyone coming early to help with set-up gets something for breakfast and lots of brownie points (redeemable in Heaven).

Excellent!! You must be a very happy man playing the way you play in such a good band. Your bassline sound and groove are spot on -

Thanks for posting - that video is an absolute blast!! Looks like you're playing a Starstream A2S like mine - am I right? With a Nordstrand Acynonix parked on a stand at the side? -
Thinking sone more about what rwillett is bringing it, I've decided to cancel the raffle. Only kidding 😉
-
Easy!!!
-
It's a raffle and thanks for letting us know in advance what you will be donating. I'll need to find a bigger table now. Or better yet 3 cages. Wouldn't want to put that lot together in a confined space.
-
I can identify with that.
-
That's the spirit!! This one is shaping up to be the 'We Beat The Lurgi Bash'. Mmmm... commemorative T-shirt anybody? 🤔
-
Oh no!!!! Here's wishing you a speedy recovery - i.e. before Sunday 🙂

I'm a big fan of their stuff and the couple of Eden amps that I've owned are the only ones I've ever regretted selling.
