  1. …..so we wonder why these cars ever got on the road in Europe…
  2. Jimothey.....Not Flatwound.....as printed on the box...."Bright Tone Roundwound". For me they are not as roundwound 'rough' as some makes. No pictures because each B string for sale is still sealed inside each box....Thanks
  3. No further reply from MIG yet.....did you try your shop at all whether they can or cant find it through Proper?
  4. Apparently the UK distributor has them in stock....'apparently'...if and when you are passing your record shop ask if they can order one....I'm told there are two sites for seeing available stock, the one we see and the one retailers see so maybe your store can make a n enquiry?
  5. Micky……Ye gads, a front room playing experience and for money 🤣
  6. MIG got back to me and they are investigating their UK distributor 'Proper Music' as they, like me, cant find it on the 'Proper' website page. MIG told me it is on Amazon which doesnt help you.....more to follow but I would have hoped you could order from a record store.
  7. I’m flattered 😀. thankyou. The CD is re- released by M.I.G. a German company… I've just emailed MIG to find out who they are using for distribution in the UK. MIG Music is on Facebook….Visitor will be on those pages along with a short sound track video I made for them, I couldn’t copy it across from FB. Good luck…it still sounds er, um, busy!
  8. Macassar ebony fingerboards on my own make of fretless basses, D’Addario XL roundwound strings, no problems, the occasional sanding of the fingerboard once in a blue moon, much like any guitars’ reset of frets/fboard. Practice scales and sing along with them, you’ll see how your tuning is then! This was old advice from my very reputable double bass tutor many years ago.
  9. Good combos...I also ended up using mine as a vocal monitor!
  10. NEW post addition..........Anyone wanting all four of them? I'll cut the pricing down to £25 includes UK postage...I don't want them going to waste. £8 for each B string single .... I have four individual B strings all taken out of five string sets as pictured. I'm only using the E to G strings from these sets so these B strings are new/unused. £8 per string plus postage.....maybe a deal if you buy all four strings.
  11. My parcel was almost ripped to shreds across the top of the package showing the bubble wrap lining. It has obviously caught on sorting machinery or run over!
  12. Evri 'not a delivery' but left outside the gate in the rain, ripped open and badly torn, no wonder the driver 'chucked and ran', thankfully the order of the cable is robust and inside its own plastic bag. Purchase company advised not to use in future (expensive parts, mics etc would have easily fallen out). I was surprised my name/address label was still intact. I did have a decent Hermes driver before who delivered to our door, not any more.
  13. I wonder if any Basschatter has my old Gibson Les Paul bass….I had ‘Knight Guitars’ in Weybridge Surrey change the neck to a new long scale, a bass clef insert was added at the 12th fret and they used the original headstock veneer too. It was great job, as if it came from an original Gibson build.
  14. I swapped a Gibson EB3 tobacco sunburst for a Ricky 4001 stereo and just didn’t get on with it so I sold/px it in for a Gibson Les Paul bass and then I had Dick Knight (RIP) replace the the neck to a long/34” scale neck with bass clef inlay at the 12th fret (was I the first to have that sort of inlay done?).
