Short answer: yes, it is possible. Long answer: it is possible, provided that you have a nice external soundcard running on Firewire or USB 2.0 (or greater) and enough processing power (which isn't too much). But yes, of course, I've been playing live through my laptop since 2007 or so.

I bought a bass from Paul in the smoothest of transactions. The bass arrived the next morning, perfectly packed and surpassing my wildest expectations. Recommended!

The bass is now gone! Thanks everybody!

If I recall correctly, they were developed (or perhaps simply marketed) in Italy by Galeazzo Frudua, who does have some reputation for his boutique basses. I honestly have no idea how they sound.

[quote name='BigAlonBass' timestamp='1459410438' post='3016181'] I only found out myself a few weeks ago. There's an American film with the same title, and apparently, if you're blessed with a bit of good luck, it's good karma to do something nice for someone else in return. We would probably have said "pass it on" before Americanisms took over. [/quote] Sorry lads, I did learn this language hanging around Americans, and I guess it reflects on how I word things sometimes—though a long stay in the British academia has forced me to reconsider my -[i]ize[/i] spellings.

Also, I forgot: free gigbag!

I got this very nice fretless neck for free from Roman (of this board) and could not find the time to try it on my previous J. Eventually I got a proper fretless J and called it a day. I've had it on my desk for months and I figured it would be better if someone who actually uses it would have it. So, free to collect, possibly from North or Central London.

Thanks guys! I am actually surprised I still haven't received any PMs tbh.

So, I was lucky enough to be the first to message CamdenRob when he posted his ad in this very board. Rob gave this to me with the implied understanding that I would pay it forward when the time came, rather than sell it on ebay for the equivalent of an ostensibly limited number of pints. Well, there you have it! It plays well, it's been loved and cared for. All is okay, except perhaps one fret is a bit lower than I'd like it to be with my crazy-low actions. (Most people cannot play my basses anyways, so it is unlikely anyone else will have my same problem.) At the moment, it's wearing a carbon-fiber looking vinyl wrap over the pickguard. Can be removed very easily, but I cannot be bothered at the moment. In any event, [b]FREE BASS[/b] in N7, London. Pick up only. (Sorry, don't have much time these days.) [b]There will be a strictly enforced FCFS policy.[/b] To have it you must satisfy [s]three[/s] four conditions: 1) You must be the first to [b]PM[/b] me; 2) You must be able to [b]pick up[/b] the bass today or in the near(est) future; 3) You must promise (to the whole of Basschat!) that, when you're done with the bass, if ever, you will [b]pay it forward, either with the bass itself or otherwise[/b]; 4) [b]Understand that I am off to brunch[/b] and might well be unable to read and reply to your messages until later today. Ready, set, go!
