  1. Yeah, I have, but not in the UK right now will get a photo when I get back it worked well
  2. I found the CT really easy, followed a few videos on YouTube and got the hang of it Tracks 1&2 are the internal synth, it’s very novation sounding (I have an ultranova) Tracks 5,6,7&8 are drum / sample tracks, plenty of sounds and packs can be added if you have an SD card using Components software Tracks 3&4 are midi so they control the Roland SE-01 and Korg volca The audio from the Roland and volca go back into the CT so can b mixed in with the other tracks so you don’t need a mixer unless you add more synths For me it’s better using a keyboard like the Arturia, but it needs to be set up right so the CT is the main clock for when using the arp’ Also, I can’t play the ext synths with the arturia yet, just waiting for midi merge and midi thru boxes to arrive Then I’m putting it all, except the keyboard, on a cheap pedal board with all the cables, including power, tucked underneath Hope that helps Tony
  3. Detaching myself from my Mac and all the other stuff that makes up my DAW is something I really liked the idea of, so have recently got myself a few bits and pieces that can make a kind of portable set up, that I can use anywhere in the house And in the garden once it warms up it’s been good learning how to use a standalone sequencer and also delving into midi deeper than I’ve ever needed too! Picture of everything laid out whilst I worked through a few problems Should all be nice and neat today, providing my midi thru and midi merger arrive
  4. Bought this album back in 1980 when I was 15 Paul Grays first album with The Damned Playing a Ric’ 4000 (correct me if I’m wrong) If you’ve not heard it, it’s the band starting to head off in different directions, but you got to check out the live side of this double album (I play the vinyl a lot, hence the vinyl reference) Especially Smash it up part 1, the bass sounds so good and is right up there
  5. Thanks, I did see that looking to see if anybody else had tried one for a few different perspectives
  6. I know it’s been mentioned a couple of times, but I really like the look of the Ashdown Roasted Capri Ticks a lot of boxes for somebody like me who has been contemplating trying SS! Not a road I’ve ever been down for very long, apart from the odd bass I bought on a whim many years ago Anybody got one? Cheers Tony
  7. Not a good colour! and that’s coming from someone who owns a yellow car 😳
  8. The latest offering in the Sadowsky Metro Express range
  9. I posted this in the GB owners group on FB earlier today Bernie replied Haven’t seen that bass for many years. It’s not a Rumour. I made it to the customers spec and is the only one of its kind. If I remember correctly it has or had two D tuners fitted. It couldn’t be made now for anything like the asking price. its a bit special! Good luck with the sale
  10. Ian king has a YouTube channel where he talks you through the various jobs he gets A recent one was for ITV’s New Years Big Bash at Wembley Arena. It’s a good insight into what’s involved when you are doing that sort of thing
  11. Surprised this is still here, I have one that was once the exact same colour, but it got resprayed in lockdown These don’t come up often and sound great
  12. I’ve got one of these from around same period sounds great and lightweight too! someone’s going to get a nice bass
  13. Have a box so can be posted
  14. House Of Tone Jazz Bass Pick Ups These are the 62 wind version of these pickups from this well respected brand Spare Off white pick up covers included From House Of Tone website '62 and 70's style J-bass pickups use flat Alnico V magnets with original spacing for the bridge and neck positions. Plenty of spank and more forward mids on the bridge and a big yet clear neck. As with all our pickups it’s all about the articulation and balance between the strings. The '62s have a touch more mids and gain while the 70's is a bit less aggressive with more presence and upper mids due to the lower resistance. Cloth covered hook up for '62 or vintage correct plastic for 70's. Available in black or white covers. 5 string models available as well. DCR: '62 8.2K bridge, 7.8K neck, 70's 7.6k bridge, 7.2K neck.*RWRP RRP £155 for set
  15. It wasn’t so much about the price, more that two came up, but it is that time of the year!
  16. Not sure where to post this so …… Two of these popped up on FB marketplace today One at £800 and one at £495! The guy selling at £800 is getting a bit of stick! The £495 bass is in Gateshead Theres that old saying ‘Like buses’ it is FB marketplace though, so both could be total b@ll&cks 😳
  17. Updated - now has correct pick ups for a 75 jazz Sounds great, just like a 75 jazz should, so much so, I might keep it!
  18. Have you still got them? The latest Sadowsky metroexpress basses look great and the range is constantly expanding, the Will Lee looks good
  19. I’ve had my eye on the UV70 for a while, they don’t come up for sale very often (yes, I know there’s one available in the basses for sale section) and when they do I’ve not been in a position to buy I’ve watched the Warwick / Sadowsky partnership expand with some interesting basses in both the metroline and metroexpress ranges, but so far, no UV70. I always thought of it as a bass that is held in high regard by many, so it prompted me to ask a question in the Sadowsky metro group on FB Question and reply shown below
  20. Fender Jazz 75 FSR Serial number dates this bass to 2012 Started life with a natural finish, has been refinished in a very light pink, so I’m told as it looks white to me! it has had a battery box fitted at some point, it has been filled but the outline is still visible Body in great shape with no chips or nasty dings Gotoh Bridge Rosewood fret board with classic 75 style blocks and binding, bullet truss rod works perfect 3 bolt neck plate with micro tilt adjust, just like they did back then Pick ups are Fender from 75 AVRI which sound great with the correct spacing for a ‘75 jazz bass - it previously had 60’s wind pickups, so now it’s more correct in my opinion and sounds like a 75 jazz should Weight is 4.4kgs Comes in a case Will get more photos and add more info tomorrow as I’m busy with a ‘Sunday Roast’ right now So why am I selling this lovely bass? Because I keep seeing things I want to try, not out of necessity, just because I can! Tony
  21. Glad I mamaged to help some people dispose of cash!
