    I knew there was one, came back to me right now : The Wooten Brothers, Put Love to Work. Even worse than any Toto album. A big pack of deep merdiques titles absolutely impossible to listen to without wanting to buy a plane ticket to be sure to put them all a bullet in the head. My record seller agreed and even refunded me after listening the opening track. If you like torture or want to make someone sick, go on, it's the perfect gift. How can studio musicians record such a truckload of crap ?

    Tomorrow never knows is my favourite track and to me their best album is Abbey Road (so much tension in it that you can feel). Never been a big fan of the White Album too. My wife offered me the stereo CD's box set when it was released : a gift that has a very high value to me for lots of reasons.

    "who" is certainly better than "that" borrowed. I wrote Wal 3 times in a row, must be addicted. 🤣
  4. Hellzero
    Yes, they do and a lot... I remember the glorious days when I had one with a Kahler vibrato on it, always fine (and sometimes heavy) tuning notes while playing thanks this "gadget". That's the main reason why Mick Karn played a Wal, thanks to his tech/roadie that borrowed a Wal during an "impossible to stay in tune" recording session as the studio was just near Wal office. The rest is history.

    Anything by Muse, as they are unable to recognize that they are just making an awful plagiat or a bad remake of Ha!-Ha!-Ha! by Ultravox! Never understood why the Buckley's were so famous and considered geniuses as it's simply boring. Agree with Jaco Pastorius except when he was playing with Joni Mitchell as what he should always have been : a bass player. And everything by Whitesnake, to me the worst band ever. And lost of so called super terrific great extraordinary albums by people who disappear the following year.

    On hold !

    Isn't the Travis Bean or Kramer headstock shape patented ?

    38 Special... Ok, I'll get my coat.
  9. Hellzero
    Total trade is also possible, don't hesitate to make your proposals...
  10. Hellzero
    I think 38 is better, special, in fact.

    Thinning down the herd, so selling what I don't use. FOR SALE ONLY. AKAI SynthStation 49 + APPLE iPad 2 32 GB Wi-Fi + official SynthStation app + brand new 6 Volts / 3 Amps dedicated power supply and all is in original boxes with all the goodies. iPad 2 comes with IOS 6.1.3 installed (signed version) and is not "jailbroken", so you can use those old apps they are totally unusable after IOS 6.1.3... Will come with the SynthStation app still installed. Factory reset done. In fully working condition. See pictures for the real condition as it's used. The only real blemish is a good knock on one side of the iPad which has no incidence on the device itself and is only cosmetic. I've macro photographed it so you can really see the blemish which is not that ugly. Official price when new was £500 GBP. Asking price is £199 GBP or €225 Euros, shipped to your place in continental Europe : and yes UK is in continental Europe !. This was a very clever idea to join an iPad with a very good master keyboard. Links : And now, the pictures :

    No problem for me. On mine, the pickups are much longer than the originals so a ramp running fit square with the pickups would have been very massive and I got it like this...
  15. Hellzero
    Not yet, but I can make some during the week.

    Thinning down the herd, so selling the basses I don't use for different reasons. FOR SALE ONLY. HOHNER Professional B Bass VI "Dark Matter", highly upgraded. The specifications : 34 inches scale. 24 frets (side and front dots), in very good condition. 1.5 mm action under the C string up to 2 mm under the B string. 18 mm strings spacing at the black aluminum Hipshot B bridge (upgrade). 9 mm at the individual string height adjustable ABM 6260 bell brass nut (upgrade). 2 truss rods (fully working). 6 black Gotoh GB7 tuners (upgrade). 3 pieces maple with mahogany stripes neck through. Very nice rosewood fretboard with this pinky-rosy looking aspect you can see on the pictures (not that flashing as there was a lot of sun when photographed). 2 Bartolini G66CBJD dual in-line coils pickups with ebony ramps (upgrade). Noll TCM3 preamp (upgrade) with new battery and a new chrome barrel output jack : volume (push-pull active when red LED is on / passive), blend, low, mid, treble, kill switch (upgrade) with black plastic knobs à la Yamaha (upgrade). 2 maple wings body with 2 stripes of mahogany and 2 black Schaller security locks strap pins (upgrade). Weight : 4.5 kilos (on the light side for a 6 strings bass). Delivered in perfectly fitting molded Carvin hard case (with a plastic part broken on the under side without incidence on the protection : see last picture). Fitted with new DR BKB6-30 Black Beauties K3 coating nickel plated steel round core strings (30 - 45 - 65 - 85 -105 -125). High gloss finish. Complete set up made by Christophe LEDUC. Asking price is £500 GBP (so you are only paying for the upgrades). This bass is certainly the best entry level bass ever made and the upgrades are really worth it, transforming a good 6 strings bass into a wonderfully sounding and playing bass that can be compared to boutique basses. The all black "Dark Matter" look is also appealing and the neck is a pleasure to play with no headstock diving !

This bass has been played with extreme caution. Judge by yourself :

    And Stockport too. Didn't know it was a colour.
  24. Hellzero
    But you can't play everything you want using the palm muting technique, as it's a technique by itself. Have you ever tried tapping and palm muting at the same time, for instance ? And it's damned pretty interestingly sounding in fact (tapping + Bass-Mute). I think, I'll put my spare one on my Leduc PAD 6 eventually, just to give it a new try.
  25. Hellzero
    The advantage of the Bass-Mute is that you have nothing to change to your right hand technique. I used one for years on my main 4 strings fretless for studio and live.
