    Tried this today and it worked a treat, thanks all 👍
  2. Beedster
    I'd love to BUT it would require us to break the first rule of BandKamp, we perform the album once and once only 👍

    With thanks to Steve @Steve Browning for donating the box and Dave @obbm for modifying it this is now solved, I've just run it at low volume at home and it works just fine, looking forward to running it slightly louder tomorrow in the big room 👍
  4. Beedster
    I suspect the box does the same thing albeit with the advantage of being able to cope with both speakon and jack cables in a number of combinations 👍

    Sold a rather lovely Jazz to Tony, a very straight forward and trouble-free deal as would be expected given his feedback here. Enjoy the bass mate 👍 I've no doubt this is far from our last transaction
  6. Beedster
    I'd like to think so mate

    Glad you like it Tony, it did play really rather well, Precision necks work very well on a Jazz body, and John Shuker certainly knows how to build a Precision neck 👍

    I'm going to need a slightly bigger room and am going to be building a cabin around it, or possibly a cabin that is it, so I'm selling this once again. If you're podcasting, or doing a Prince and recording masterpieces instrument by instrument, this is a bloody nice unit. Big enough footprint for a Jazz kit, sufficient height for a 3/4 double bass, low-noise fan and lights in the mix also 👍

    It's as much to do with international economics as anything deliberate by Pirastro I'd guess? Since Brexity/Trumpin, it's simply crazy

    ...also don't think it would be too hard to engineer a rack to sit on the bottom to hold each bass in its own space and stop them making contact with each other, might reduce the bass capacity from seven to six, but hey, who needs seven basses anyway

    There's one of these going very cheap in London on eBay, if you're local this is a bargain at about £200 less than they usually go for (I suspect the limed finish is a factor) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/226706773203?campid=5339022111&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&customid=EAIaIQobChMIpOKk2vHejQMV-4xQBh3q8yDIEAQYASABEgKzvvD_BwE&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20016378716&gbraid=0AAAAADk7gXOhuH0jOAXDkO1kINhcEa96B&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpOKk2vHejQMV-4xQBh3q8yDIEAQYASABEgKzvvD_BwE

    This says it all.....

    ...and if you have 7.30 to spare, watch the video but stay focussed wherever possible on Moon, 100% in the moment, 100% in the music, and 100% in the zone. Sublime

    At 4.46 in if you look at the version with subtitles they're all singing 'Gerald'. They're not, they're actually singing 'cello', because during tracking PT apparently asked for cellos to play those stacatto notes but was told the record company wouldn't foot the bill. So the band - bless them - sang the word 'cello' instead
  15. Beedster
    Sat in the pub tonight discussing this very track. OK, JE was one of the great bass players, and Daltrey a decent front man, but Moon and Townsend are just incredible in this, in fact it's Townsend's guitar that holds it together at times. f***ing glorious 🙏

    Beautiful 👍

    If playing quality wears off on an instrument I strongly advise you to avoid buying from me at all costs

    I remember the first time i hear Take On Me I was speechless, I pick up a lot of talk about highly skilled and versatile female singers but his voice, his range, and his creativity are up there with many of the best singers in pop, I always felt he could probably have done some opera had he chosen to. He seems to be concerned that the disease will affect his singing, which is great news in a way in that he's clearly still thinking about singing and the future. Great news and I wish him all the best 🙏❤️

    I placed felt panels between them, admittedly I still had to be careful moving them in and out, but it remained a very nice - and as my daughters put it, very aesthetic - solution for bass storage 👍
  22. Beedster
    Not an easy lift trust me, I had to move them down the stairs recently, one of those jobs that you realise midway through doing on your own that you need two people for! I do not know Chris but will keep an eye out 👍 They come up occasionally but often around £400-450 It is, it's almost worth buying more basses to justify having one, have to say I'm not sure you'd get a 35" 5er in however 🤔
  23. Beedster
    That’s very tough on him, best wishes to him and his family 🙏
  24. Beedster
    Thanks @Pow_22 it's really rather nice, from a distance it looks quite new but close up it has the sort of wear that you can only get from 45-50 years of playing. Resonates rather nicely also, killer bass with that neck on it 👍
  25. Beedster
    Rehearsed it and it was fabulous, even with relatively inexpensive Squier PUPs and circuit it was everything a Precision should be. Think I've underpriced it 🤔
