Have you seen the length of that guy's fingers ? Freak ! Only people with fingers the length of breadsticks can play that bass

You dont have to be good at anything to own anything you want. Spend YOUR money where it makes you happy. There's no laws on that.

Jeeeez. There's always one. It was just an experiment. Some guy messing around for the sake of it. He didn't string it with guitar strings to make it sound like a bass. He would have strung it with bass strings if he wanted it to sound like a bass. Have a Millers or something and relax.

A Pedulla Buzz is it ?. Fab bass !

Quite right. We save it for the likes of despicable and dangerous muppets like Nugent. The midwife should have kept the placenta and tossed Nugent away

Would you return a new instrument for a dodgy jack?
fleabag replied to Jono Bolton's topic in General Discussion
Just do this above -
A whacky experiment , nothing more, and no one is likely to play like that in a band sitch. Though never say never. Reminded a bit of the Vigier that Govan played about 10 years ago but with less strings

I couldn't find a feedback thread for @PigBass so i'm kicking one off. Darren offered me a new / unused pedal for a 3rd of it's new price, and suggested i paid when it arrives. What a gentleman. The pedal was like it just shipped from a shop. Painless deal and a lovely guy to do business with Thanks Darren ! Pete

Clever playing. In fact he's excellent and it's just an experiment, so i'm not gonna slag him. I cant see me bothering though

Indeed, comfort for YOU is everything. What works for some doesn't work for others. That's life. You'll find your comfort zone and that will be the right technique

Upgrading pickups on sire v3 gen 1 bass.

I speak with forked tongue. Just realised mine was one of the early V7 MM jobs. Still, the rest of the above still counts -
Upgrading pickups on sire v3 gen 1 bass.
fleabag replied to seanobrien's topic in Repairs and Technical
I had the early Sire a while ago, and didnt get on with the tone, so i tried Barts and it didnt improve ( not for my taste anyways ) so it's probably the preamp. Thats just my take, and other owners / modders will have a different experience -
I just measured my Roksak case and i started with length, and it's 127 cm inside. Marvellous. I was given it free of charge by Wunjos when i bought one of the weird shaped Overwater classics. Very long bass, and Wunjos tried a few cases and they weren't long enough. But just measured the upperhorn approx 50cm up from the bottom and my case is not wide enough at that point. ( you need 35cm ) Shame Pete's Tribal Planet doesn't fit the bill. They're the most awesome non solid case i've ever seen. You can stand on 'em for cliff's sake. I still have one. Shame they no longer make them, as nothing comes close to them in the non solid case bag business
