  1. ^^ This.. Thanks for sharing your story @Bassman Sam and best of luck with the op next year! Maybe I'm feeling a bit reflective this morning after a really good gig last night, but reading about what you've been through - and are still going through with this situation - has made realise just how lucky I've been in terms of health and playing music.. As Joni said, 'you don't know what you've got till it's gone.' Merry Xmas btw Folks and here's to some positive outcomes for all of us next year ! 🎄😊
  2. Great sound - really alive and a lot of energy.. Some nice playing too! 😊 GLWTS
  3. I had one of these for a while.. It was brutally loud, had a great inherent sound to it and then as tonally flexible as you like. Not sure why I sold it really? Probably because I had too much gear at the time.. But anyway, my ramblings of regret aside, this is a serious piece of kit! GLWTS
  4. Hi Folks Having recently sold a Roscoe Beck 5 String bass to @ampegg, a.k.a. Paavo, in what was a very good transaction, I'm pleased to be able to start this feedback thread for him. Simply put, Paavo is a great person to deal with - excellent communications, very easy to negotiate with, and a prompt payer - all of which is great! But in addition to all of that, he's also a very patient person too. To explain briefly.. Because the bass had to be shipped to Finland, I was very deliberate in sourcing suitably strongly packaging materials for the job - which took quite a while to be honest - about two weeks all in all. But throughout all of that, Paavo was really calm and patient about it and just encouraged me to take my time and get it done right. So, as well as being more than happy to recommend Paavo to one and all here on Basschat, I'd also like to thank him for being a great person to deal with and for his understanding and patience.. Thanks very much Paavo; I hope the extra wait for the RBV was worth it and more than that, I really hope you enjoy the bass. 😊 Until the next time.. Nik
  5. See here for an explanation for YMMV. https://www.google.com/amp/s/dictionary.cambridge.org/amp/english/ymmv
  6. That's a very punchy and loud amp so I doubt you'd have any problems achieving the volume levels you're after if paired with the Triad.. Obviously, YMMV, but IMO, it'd work.
  7. Depends on your amp obviously, but the Triad I had certainly was loud enough. Kicked out plenty of low end, but also, lots of mid frequency punch and sweet highs..
  8. Cool bass Gary! 😊 Great seller btw, Folks.. GLWTS
  9. @AndyTravis - How I wish that were true! 😊
  10. There's so much of concern in this post, it's almost impossible to know where to start..? Psychoanalytically speaking, 'GAS' as a descriptor for a far gone state of mind doesn't even come close! This is where it all ends people - this is what the dark corners of a Basschat fuelled, bass-addicted, bass players mind looks like. This is the view from our windows.. 😁 Back on topic.. Lovely bass, tons of mojo Chris.. You have extraordinary taste in vintage basses! GLWTS or trade... 😊
  11. ^^ This. 100%.😐
  12. Great news Dan! Well deserved and a good move all round.. BGM definitely needs DOOD-ing up IMHO.. 😊
  13. BUMP! Price dropped to £550 o.n.o. for this classic and vintage Ibanez bass.
  14. P. S. Very melodic playing @ambient - a very refreshing change from the usual bass demos..
  15. That's a stunning looking bass! GLWTS
  16. Cool bass, nice playing, great tone! GLWTS
  17. Had the pleasure of playing one of these recently, though I'm not a 6 string player and have no aspirations to be one... Having said that, the inherent tone of the bass, it's playability and build quality were so exceptional I could hear the GAS demon in my head saying that I should take up 6 string bass... ! 😁 Not that I'm going to do that of course, but I just wanted to offer up that little tale as evidence of what absolutely brilliant instruments these basses are. GLWTS
  18. Great thread! 😊 Amazing collection of basses and amps and what a brilliant space that is @cd_david! Lovely example of what the Basschat community is all about...
  19. That looks absolutely awesome!! 😊 GLWTS
  20. Sold an EHX Micro Q-Tron to Steve in what was a very straight forward, pleasant transaction.. Steve says its the first pedal he's ever bought in his bass playing career so I hope that he likes it!! Anyway, just to say that Steve is a great bloke and a valued member of the Basschat community so deal with him in absolute confidence. Thanks Steve; looking forward to hearing your Bootsy Collins style bass FX workshop at next year's South East Bass Bash! 😁 Nik
  21. Awesome - thanks Steve! 😊
  22. Now that's the way to do it! Brilliant for sale ad @Ted Theodore Logan, III And a great cab too! GLWTS 😊
  23. ^^ This! Wishing you the best with it all Lozz.. Difficult a decision as it must have been, your health and wellbeing is the most important thing. Sounds like you've got some great memories to hold onto from your time in the band and a sense of real achievement too.. No doubt, in a few months time, you'll be onto your next musical adventure! 😊
