  1. Bit of an SD Curlee / Hondo / Kawai vibe going on there. Cool. 👍
  2. The Needle and the Damage Done - Neil Young
  3. I'm concerned that anyone who has a Ripper is going to expect us all to club together to make them keep it.
  4. I know that Gibson basses aren't popular here, but this takes it to the next level. Paying someone to not sell their Gibson bass...
  5. Your English is far, far better than our German (apart from @Leonard Smalls maybe! ), so no need to apologise in that respect. Welcome!
  6. Bargain. Will have to check the D'Addario Amazon store now!
  7. That is an absolute beauty of a bass, with an absolutly terrible reason for sale. All the best @AndyTravis, needs must. ☹️ GLWTS.
  8. Have you tried using the Tubeman with the bass? Tech21 stuff is great, you could try and find a Behringer BDI21 for a fraction of the price. There are plenty of different Preamp / DI pedals kicking about that sound good, there's also a good number of digital units available. Experiment and have fun.
  9. Another vote for the Vintage, a surprisingly versatile guitar for the money (cost me less than £100 new when I bought it!). It's now been claimed by my son, but it gets regular use. Best bit of advice with the cheaper, laminate back acoustics, is buy a decent set of wooden pegs. Swapped the plastic ones that the Vintage came with for a set of Rosewood ones. Also, make sure you get one with a solid wood top.
  10. A Unity 500 for £350? Bargain! Does it have an Effects Loop? Get the Unity & plug the Darkglass into the FX Return, bypassing any "colouring" that the amp's preamp may bring, though there may be some colouring from the power amp & speakers. Have been having a similar discussion for quite a few years now, but due to not being able to stretch to one of the "top notch" FRFR / PA Powered cabs, I've been using my Ashdown MAG 300 combo with a succession of Multi-FX/Modellers (currently a Line6 POD Go). Works for me.
  11. We're An American Band - Grand Funk Railroad
  12. That does look quite interesting, and not helping my GAS for an 8 string.
  13. Great info, thanks @geofio. Been a bit curious about Spectors, especially the Euro made versions.
  14. Wondered what had happened to Black Midi, there was a big buzz about them a few years ago, then it all went quiet. Must give Geordie Greep a listen.
  15. The oldest are a couple of years old, but that bass doesn't get used much. The next are about 8-9 months old. D'Addarioi Pro Steels.
