    I've never seen an 8-string Spector! Apart from a modified one on YouTube. Are they on the website?

    [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1397728794' post='2426808'] That sounds more like a kick drum than a bass. [/quote] +1 Pretty sure everyone was complaining about the general low frequencies rather than the actual bass guitar itself. A pretty common state of affairs at lots of gigs these days.

    [quote name='Leon Transaxle' timestamp='1397430209' post='2423932'] Interested in a LPB CV 50s P bass plus cash? [/quote] Tempting but I'll pass. Thanks for the offer. I might have gone for the yellow one though!

    [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1397417957' post='2423756'] You'd think they could afford their own place. [/quote] Beat me to it

    [quote name='The fasting showman' timestamp='1397484454' post='2424344'] Yeah, that always gets overlooked I think. 'Magic Bus' on 'Live at Leeds' has incredible plectrum playing. [/quote] Totally agree. Live at Leeds is probably 50/50 pick and fingers. Fantastic pick technique, and yes, unfairly overlooked.

    I don't think it's an active/passive switch - you can disable the EQ but it's still running off the battery. Beautiful bass, massively under-rated. My fave bass at the LBGS.

    I'm endlessly fascinated by these basses. Something I'm not sure of re: the neck - what is a rolled fingerboard, and how does it differ to slab-cut?

    [quote name='njr911' timestamp='1397466189' post='2424057'] I watched The Who - Live at the IoW Festival (1970?) on You Tube at the weekend. It's an amazing gig and well worth a hour and 20 mins of your time. What I did notice and have noticed in the past from watching his playing is his unique technique. Hi picking fingers flying everywhere. How does he play so well and quickly ? They guys a legend! [/quote] I'm surprised you noticed, JE has about 20 seconds of screen time in the whole thing! Incredible concert though.

    [quote name='AussieBassman' timestamp='1397260603' post='2422389'] So anyway, what about Rob Jones and his Ric 4003? [/quote] He had to sell his waistcoat [i]and[/i] shirt to afford that Rick...

    [quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1397064498' post='2420329'] i ll have the strings for £40 if your willing.. [/quote] Someone else already has first dibs on the strings I'm afraid! But at the moment they're for sale with the bass only.
  13. Cosmo Valdemar
    Gorgeousness.
  14. Cosmo Valdemar
    Bargain!

    [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1396982237' post='2419482'] What a lovely looking bass [/quote] 'Tis isn't it.

    What does the color switch do?
  19. Cosmo Valdemar
    Yeah, I had to get the La Bellas from the US too. Had to wait ages too, everywhere was sold out it seemed!
  20. Cosmo Valdemar
    Gorgeous collection. The red one on the left looks like it's starting to morph into a Soundgear.
  21. Cosmo Valdemar
    Do you have any old copies of Bassist?
  22. Cosmo Valdemar
    Just get some decent strings on it first!

    [quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1396779580' post='2417161'] Would a trade for a Sterling By Musicman SUB V interest you (Black & Maple). G. [/quote] Not really into fivers I'm afraid. Cheers for the offer though.

    Purchased brand new a couple of months ago, never gigged or taken out of the house so in pristine condition. Comes with original box (slightly dented) and all paraphernalia. It's a very versatile pedal with lots of weird and wonderful sounds, courtesy of 7 ( I think) distinct settings. I'm after £30 inc. shipping to mainland UK. Collection welcome too, of course - I'm in Dartford.

    For sale - my Squier VM Bass VI. This bass is in superb condition, not a mark or ding to be seen anywhere. Of course the bass still has the vibrato arm but I forgot to put it in for the pics. The bass sounds wonderful, a distinctive, throaty tone. And far bassier than you would expect - make no mistake, this is definitely a bass! If it doesn't sell I won't mind as it really is smashing. It's still wearing the original factory strings which in all honesty aren't really doing the instrument justice. They are far too light. I have just purchased a set of very expensive La Bella flats in a far more suitable gauge. I haven't put them on but if you want them I could throw them in for an extra £40. NOW SOLD.
