SOLD SOLD Yamaha Attitude Standard Bass - £200
mattbass6 replied to orangepeelneil's topic in Basses For Sale

I like this. It’s about time they released a JM signature model. I live Bongo basses, even though I sold the 4 I had. Would I buy it? No, not to use live (if that ever happens again!) That string spacing is too narrow for me too. However, I would love to collect signature basses if I had the funds. This is now added to the list, which goes like this - Steve Harris - Fender Precision David Ellefson - Jackson RIP model Billy Sheehan - Yamaha Attitude Geddy Lee - Fender Jazz Rob Trujillo - Warwick Streamer What an ace collection that would make.

Headstock shape. Sunburst. Block inlays. Overly fussy, and fancy tops. Tortoise shell scratch-plates. Singlecuts. Offset bodies. Slab bodies. Basses with ‘51 style pickups. Rosewood fingerboards. Gold hardware. Bloody hell i’m picky 😂 I know what I like though, and having been through so many different makes over the years, it has made the process of knowing what I like, so much easier. Good topic ☺️

REDUCED - £400.00 - Fender Rumble 500 V3
mattbass6 replied to Jack_Stroud_Bass's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
These really have interested at the moment. May I ask, what style of band do you play in? How hard has this amp been pushed, and how many gigs has it done? Sorry for all the questions, but I never normally look at 2nd hand amps as you never really know how hard it has been pushed, so I end up buying new to be on the safe side. I am genuinely interested though. Cheers ✌🏼 -

Do you consider it sacrilege to modify a signature bass?
mattbass6 replied to ForbiddenWytch's topic in Bass Guitars
Sell it to me, and use the money to go buy a 2nd hand Precision you can experiment on ✌ *** I know you don’t want to sell it, but still worth a try 😉 *** -
Yep. Just put a set of Rotosound Flatwounds on my old ‘86 Jap Precision. An instant dislike. I was never a fan of Rotosound but as I wanted to experiment because I’m a Steve Harris fan, I thought I’d give ‘em another go. Don’t get it. Dunlop Steel Superbright Roundwounds are now back on it. My fave strings. Phew! So much better. Worth a try though 😬

Images that made you want to play bass
mattbass6 replied to oldslapper's topic in General Discussion
Steve Harris of Iron Maiden. The first time I heard the band, the first time I saw the images, the first time I saw them live, the first time I heard/saw that bass, I had to play bass. I was lucky enough to support British Lion in December, and play through his Iron Maiden cabs (only 1 of the 4 he brought out with him), and I got to chat to him as a “peer”. What a brilliant, engaging and funny guy he is. Mind blown. 16 year old me would never believe it was possible ☺️⭐️ -
Afternoon one and all, I hope you are well and keeping safe. Just a quick question, if you don’t mind. I’m thinking of buying an Orange OBC212 cab. I had the pleasure of playing through a rig made up of 12” speakers in December, and the sound was simply amazing. It got me thinking that I may go down this route. Have any if you owned, or played through this particular Orange cabinet? If so, what style of music do you play, what bass, and how did you find the can response/sound? I’m in a heavy progressive rock band using Fender Precision’s, and a Vigier Excess 5. Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and stay safe. Cheers, Matt ⭐️

I’ve just pulled the trigger on the new Fender Ultra Precision in Artic Pearl. It should be here next week. I’m very excited, and I’ll let you know when it has arrived 😬 I really, really appreciate all of your help. It was extremely useful. Thank you. 🙏🏻
