That's interesting, I was thinking of getting a single (10 or 12) and then saving up for a second only if needed. I guess the lfsys frfr can be shaped well with the amps eq, especially the tilt. Don't need it straight away so time to save and research.

I can dream of the Dubster, but I don't think I can find a place for it in the house. Certainly won't get it under the Xmas tree this year... All the reading I've been doing suggests barefaced is the way to go.

Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2023?
Fishfacefour replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
Best - my new Warwick star bass fretless as am early Xmas present last month. Does everything I hoped, sounds great and feels great. Worst - ghs pressure wound strings. The high tension seems to have triggered a load of hand pain. More or less under control now I've moved to shorter scales and tape wound strings. Thought I wanted high tension, my body disagrees! -
Definitely think I'll get the 500 head in the new year. Any recommendations for portable cabs that would be good for ska/reggae?

John just bought a sire v7 fretless off me. Lovely guy to deal with, paid quickly and let me know it had got there safely. Thanks John

Have you tried using finger 3 for the 5th? that frees up your 4th finger for the minor third on the way down.

Well I had a really draining day today, i was feeling exhausted and flat but just made the effort to blast through some songs on headphones and I feel like myself again! The power of bass!

Lovely well balanced light 5 string. The burgundy is a lovely red and the swamp ash wood grain comes through nicely. The neck is a 5 piece panga-panga and walnut. Fretboard is roasted maple. Plays really well and the Markbass mb-1 pre gives scope for plenty of sounds. Pickups are bartolini mk1. Tuners are hipshot ultralite which means it balances perfectly. I've moved over to medium and short scale so now moving this on. Can post at buyer's cost. Open to trades for an amp: ideally Ashdown RM500, Ampeg PF500, or possibly TC Electronic 500w. These are old pics, I'll update them later today.

Getting over "the one that got away"
Fishfacefour replied to Bafflegab's topic in General Discussion
I picked up an ashdown shirt scale Grail. This is a slimmed down jazz, plays really well, sounds good with decent pickups. Super light and no neck dive as it has lightweight hipshot tuners. https://ashdownmusic.com/products/the-grail-short-scale Probably won't feel custom made but ticks your boxes and should do the job. -
