fleabag

I'm thinning more of my herd, ( 2 vintage basses and a combo ) and wondered what % age shops charge. Saves me phoning every shop in the UK , if anyone knows what some of them charge percentage wise. AFAIK, the Bass Gallery charge 15% which is fairly reasonable. I dont know about all the others, like Vintage and Rare, Vintage and Modern, Wunjo, Andy Baxter etc. Forget BD. I wont deal with them Anyone had recent experience with commission sales? How'd it go and who with ? Ta folks

I have no idea ..i bought it off a bass/guitar customiser called Patchwork Axes. I think he's defunct now

No offence. 😲 Just wondering if anyone owns/owned an odd looking bass. I had this, and still have the neck.

D.I. post EQ for me

Assuming a right handed player, then when using the bass, the onboard EQ will be facing the floor, unless the EQ is for guitar only. Also, whichever way round you play it, a set of strings are going to be cheese grating your clothes.... or skin, if you play naked

I pretend to be American on TB and actually get replies to posts.

No worries mate. It doesnt matter where you're from, what age you are or what music you like.

Actually, nobody asked. Carry on.

Strange. A week after his jab, i was thinking " KiOgon, build me a copy of an Alembic preamp for a fiver. " Nothing, zilch, nada

That's because he ain't not no human bean

And a bit more on Wetton for us JW lovers, particularly around the 72-74 era with Crimson's Starless, Lark’s Tongue in Aspic and Red albums 61 Fender Precision , Italian-made Jen Double Sound Fuzz/Wah , Hiwatt valve heads , Cerwin-Vega 4×12 cab - EV drivers

The fabulous John Wetton - ye olde creamey bass tone and great bass line.

I saw them at the 1980 CND rally at Trafalgar Square .. luvvery jubberly

Yes it is, as long as the intonation is set correctly

Cant say rock is my thang, but i have been known to put my foot down when this starts playing. Fab stuff

Generally, i switch off when the slapping kicks off. The only track i really i like that has slapstick is Love Games / Level 42 The rest makes me groan

Depends on the bass, so for fretless, it has to be these. Plenty of mwaaaah

Great track. Here's my fave version...a helluva melody

I am gas free since joining GA

It was good dealing with Paul. No messing about, he paid, i posted, he received. Doesn't get any easier Cheers Paul Pete

Some light relief , FZ lovers. Wonderful labour of love and stunning claymation stop action by the late Bruce Bickford. RIP. You can imagine how long this took, moving every piece of plasticine by a tiny amount and photographing it. Great vocal by Adrian Belew Enjoy
