  1. Can someone recommend a strap of a similar construction to a Mono please ? Ive tried a Mono short and it’s too short on its longest and a Mono long which is too long on its shortest 😂 Must be easily adjustable
  2. I’ll have this if you still have it ? Some swine stole my clip on one from a rehearsal room
  3. Oh lord this is worryingly close to me
  4. Ian bought a Stingray off me and more importantly let me play his 63 P Bass 😂 Super nice chap, enjoy the bass!
  5. Yup, no Earnie Ball logo on headstock, slab body, but sensible truss rod adjustment also. Pretty much a Classic I suppose but with a different pickup
  6. This has all been brilliant info, thank you !
  7. Stingray 40th anniversary edition with paperwork and official hard case. Has been gigged and rehearsed with but is in excellent condition. Plays incredibly well and sounds immense. Build quality is exceptional. I have too many basses and I have a Status which does the same thing as this but also has fairy lights … More info here: https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/old-smoothie More photos on request, I’m currently down with covid so responses might be a bit slow or nonsensical 🤣
  8. thank you, that’s really helpful !
  9. totally flat and mess about with tone control on bass and contour knob on amp.
  10. I could take about CS for days so no it’s fine 🤣
  11. That’s interesting thank you 🙏
  12. Somewhat of a musing here so apologies for that ! I’ve been after this tone in my head for years which is basically early Queen, woody, p bass with flats etc In pursuit of this I own a handbox all valve head and a BF supertwin At the last rehearsal I did I couldn’t be bothered taking my rig with me and used the random 4x10 with a tweeter and an amp of equally dubious provenance. I ended up with a somewhat top heavy somewhat distorted Geddy Lee tone (I have the picking technique of an amped up gorilla which helps) and I had a tonal nirvana moment, totally at odds with what I’ve being trying to achieve 🤦‍♂️ So the question is what sort of cab do I actually need ? I don’t think the super twin is actually what I need despite it’s obvious weight advantages. Head-wise I’ve discovered that going into the effects loop straight from the (active) bass gets me most of the way there, as does adding a compressor. Sansamp may help even more. Maybe the cab isn’t so important it’s more down to the amp, in which case crack on lad 🤣 I’ve just fallen in love with that slight distortion on the attack rolling back into a scooped mid sound
  13. Do you get up to the north west at all ?
  14. That’s one rare bird. I have the ‘normal’ USA one. It’s incredible
  15. Gosh, that’s a shame. They’re really very special.
  16. It went out of production ?
  17. Thank you. It’s literally brand new and still in warranty.
  18. Line 6 Helix Floor Unit mint condition boxed with Protection Racket Soft Case. Used once, too complicated for me 🤣 Three months old and has sat in its case for most of that. Receipt from PMT in Manchester available. As close to new as you’ll get without paying full price. Original box included Cellophane covers on glass areas still in place More info here https://www.andertons.co.uk/guitar-dept/electric-guitar-amps/amp-simulators/line-6-helix-floor-multi-effects-unit
  19. £750 posted as it’s now gathering dust and I need the space 🤣
  20. Oh god ...
