  1. Hi Merton, Shame, but I hope all's well with you otherwise and that you've had a go Xmas.. Back on topic - this is a quality bit of kit though.. Very good person to deal with too!
  2. Fabulous! Where's Merton?? 😁 GLWTS
  3. Wow! This is an unbelievably good deal for a quality five string instrument with the addition of the Thunderbucker 66s 5 string p/ups.. GLWTS
  4. That's a lovely example of a 70's Jazz - my favourite colour combination in fact.. GLWTS
  5. +1 So much faster! Thanks Basschat Team ☺
  6. One of my big bug bears over the years is the sometimes lazy, very generic treatment of the bass by soundmen at gigs that I've played at - or been to as a punter -and often, the biggest sin is that they compress the life out of the bass in the overall mix. That's not to say that I haven't hear great bass sounds in live & studio settings, or used compression myself and liked it -I have! But sometimes I think compression is used as a rather blunt tool by engineers who, if I didn't know better, I would swear were guitarists in disguise...?
  7. Very nice ☺ I had an all natural '77 Stingrays once, and it was one of the most resonant basses I've ever owned. What's more, no other Stingray I've ever had or played since then, ever sounded as good. There's definitely some magic about the early Stingrays! GLWTS
  8. Great looking bass, Karl! One of the best colours I've seen on one of the T-Birds.. GLWTS
  9. Great work again, Silvia! Thanks for all your hard work on this, yet again.. ☺
  10. Hi Folks My best mate, who's also a very fine drummer, is looking for a bass player to start up an alternative rock covers band in the North London area (he's based in N21). There's already a singer and guitarist in place, plus a rehearsal space for low volume practicing, so the addition of an experienced (and not too young) bass player is all that's required to get this project going. Musical influences include amongst others Bowie, Roxy Music, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters and other edgy post-punk, new wave artists.. Initially, it's just about getting together for the sheer love of playing and making a noise but some gigs in the future are definitely possible depending on how things go... For more info, please PM me or send an email to Louis: [email protected]. Thanks for reading.. Nik
  11. Love the look of this! Have PM'd you...
  12. Wow! More 'holy grail' speakerage for sale just before Xmas, along with the EAD 212 that's just come up. These look fantastically well built and what's more, there's 2 of them. Amazing..☺ Anyway, GLWTS
  13. Always loved the look of these cabs and have heard great things about how good they sound. GLWTS
  14. +1 It sounds really good in the YouTube clip, and it looks very cool too! GLWTS
  15. Looks very cool to me! GLWTS ☺
  16. Good thread... And it's an easy question to answer for me; David Bowie & The Spiders from Mars.
  17. Great little amps these... I used to use one regularly with an SWR Triad, a Lakland DJ5 and a Fender RBV for gigging and it was really good! The inbuilt, push-button e.q. setting for 5 string basses was particularly useful as was the 'contour' control and overall, it had a really powerful, punchy and crisp sound to it! Pretty lightweight IIRC, so quite easy on the back too. ☺ Anyway, before I get overly nostalgic, GLWTS.
  18. Great to have date confirmed so early - thanks Colin! ☺
  19. As has already been said, this is an insanely good price for a very high quality instrument... and given that fact, it's really disappointing to hear that you're being mucked around further still by puerile lowball offers. As the site has grown over the years though, that trend has only increased unfortunately, which does make selling higher-end gear harder to sell on BC these days. Back on the more positive side (I hope), this bass is going to make someone very happy very soon and best of luck with the sale!
  20. +1 Dundee is a bit to far from me, being on the south coast.. Thanks for letting us know though, and GLWTS. ☺
  21. +1 Great work folks!
