  1. Hi - sorry i am sure that this has been asked before - but cant find it in the forum Just got myself a budget double bass - but it came with nylon strings for Rockabilly bass - any recommendations on 'normal' strings as I will be playing Bluegrass. Ones that wont cost a fortune but will not cause me too much pain (physical or emotional) in the early stages of learning ta Mick
  2. Hi. Where are you based Cheers Mick

  5. [quote name='cybertect' timestamp='1378412575' post='2200051'] I've been having fun with this little app for IOS: Sight Reading Machine [url="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sight-reading-machine/id662692296?mt=8"]https://itunes.apple...d662692296?mt=8[/url] Handy sight reading practice when I have a bass to hand or just on the train. It generates a tune and plays it; you can configure it to select a wide range of parameters such as tempo, key, note lengths, etc. Notably, it comes with presets for both 4 and 5 string bass. [/quote] Just downloaded this - thanks for the tip brilliant just what i wanted - Mick
  6. Cheers - wish my wife (and ex wife) thought that ha thanks a lot mick
  7. [b][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]Mesa Boogie valve V-Twin pre-amp pedal. [/color][/font][/b] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]I did put for sale at £300 - but tried it out and the volume control is a bit noisy. It will be where it has been unused fo so[b] long - but happy to reduce to £270 to cover cost of a replacement Pot if needed. Also small screw that holds cover on is missing - but doesn't do anything apart from that so is not functionally important[/b][/color][/font] [size=4][b][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828][size=3]Details can be found here - [url="http://www.mesaboogie.com/Product_Info/Out_of%20_Production/V-Twin/v-twin.html"]http://www.mesaboogi...win/v-twin.html[/url][/size][/color][/font][/b][/size] [indent=1][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828][size=3][url="http://basschat.co.uk/uploads/monthly_12_2011/post-3755-0-87296200-1324328193.gif"][i]Mick Cope[/i][/url][/size][/color][/font][/indent] [indent=1][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828][size=3][i]Rayleigh in Essex[/i][/size][/color][/font][/indent]
  8. [b]Mesa[/b][b] Boogie valve V-Twin pre-amp pedal. for sale £300[/b] [b]"This is no one-trick stomp box.[/b] With three modes, four stages of all-tube preamp circuitry and dedicated outputs for host amps, power amps and recording consoles, this fortress of a pedal is a fully evolved footswitching preamp. [attachment=95574:V-Twin_mini.gif] [indent=1]Though its layout is simple, V-Twin is supremely capable of producing pristine clean sounds and delivering purring blues tones and truly outrageous high-gain rock or metal sounds. Two out of three of these dedicated modes are footswitchable, leaving us room to include the Bypass for use with host amps. It even has headphone capability that will embarrass the effects-laden digital wanna be's. Or can be plugged into any power amp - including the PA."[/indent] [indent=1]5][i]- Mesa Boogie product description[/i][/indent] [indent=1]5][i]Only minor nigggle is missing screw for the valve cover[/i][/indent] [indent=1]5][i]Mick Cope[/i][/indent]
  9. [size=4][color=#000000][font=Times]£45[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]POD® 2.0 comes with a built in set of effects that are tweaked to perfection. This "best of" collection of effects makes searching for the perfect sounds ultra easy. Multiple versions of the effects give you rack or stompbox versions, and the combination effects give you classic setups like Delay and Chorus simultaneously. There’s even a full time Reverb, Tap Tempo for getting your delay’s in time with the band, and an Effect Tweak knob for custom tailoring your effects. Plus, you’ll never be out of tune because you’ll get a Chromatic Tuner with a silent mute function for tuning between songs.[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]Mick Cope[/font][/color][/size]

  18. I have hit the perfect storm of reaching 50, retired with lots of free time and a small pension, which means I don’t need to do crap gigs to feed the family. So after a few years away from the scene (been playing bass locally since I was 17) it feels like time to see what the chances are of playing with other musicians again. I would love to find some people who would like to play some Americana/folk/alt country/blues type material. I am not precious about the artists – but really keen to play some good music with good musicians. That is as far as the plan goes – drop me a line if you feel it is worth a chat. Cheers Mick [email protected] Rayleigh Essex
  19. A couple of years a go I decided to have a go with a five string bass - but have just not taken to it. So I am selling my black Musicman bass. It has been un-gigged and pretty much unused since then. I got it from the Bass Merchant in Colchester. It also comes with the original case. £795 seems to be a fair price based on the sales in Ebay Pick Up only from Rayleigh in Essex Cheers Mick [email protected]
