  1. I played my band to the young newbie girl at work, who clearly liked her rock. "Old school" she said. "nah," I replied, "we're just old!"
  2. I'm not interested in splitting these. Two unused Fender California Series 20ft cables, bought as back up in 2018 but I have since gone wireless. They've literally just sat in a cupboard. £18 for the pair, including UK only postage. The spec is here https://www.reidys.com/index.pl?submit=View_PLU&PLU=18809 in case anyone wants the lowdown on a lead?!
  3. I bought this in 2018, tried it two or three times tops at home (& it sounded a lot of fun) but live, I'm not really an effects user. It's sat in a cupboard since! Still boxed with the plastic. Easy to use and in great condition, obviously given it's limited usage. To nit pick, the cardboard box sat in storage is the only thing that suggests this isn't brand new. Priced at £20 including UK delivery only. Picture taken on my phone late last night. Features/Specifications Input Impedance: 1MΩ Output Impedance: 1KΩ less Nominal Output Level: -20dBu Rate Control: 90ms ? 900ms Current Draw: 20mA Connectors: Input Jack, Output Jack, DC Input Controls: Rate, Wave, Depth Bypass: True bypass Power Supply: 9V Alkaline Battery or DC 9V Adapter Dimensions: W110 mm X H 60mm X D 53mm (4.3" X 2.4" X 2.1")

  5. I bought this in 2018, tried it two or three times tops at home (& it sounded a lot of fun) but live, I'm not really an effects user. It's sat in a cupboard since! Still boxed with the velvet bag. Easy to use and in great condition, obviously given it's limited usage. To nit pick, the cardboard box sat in storage is the only thing that suggests this isn't brand new. Priced at £35 including UK delivery only. Picture taken on my phone late last night.

  6. She's obviously a pro. My cats are such amateurs that merely interrupt play...
  7. I always associate Spector basses with the tail end of what is now called Hair Metal. The early 90s was littered with adverts in Bassist magazine with the likes of Rachel Bolan from Skid Row clutching his Spector. Personally I preferred the more traditional look of a bassist rocking a Thunderbird or a Precision but Spectors can sound good. The look was just not to my personal tastes.
  8. I always found Watford Valves really helpful https://www.watfordvalves.com/products.asp?ID=4&man=171 Just remember a new speaker will require some time to properly settle in.
  9. I always fancied one of these but they are very hard to come by now. I did road test one in Salisbury back when they first came out but it was the weight that put me off. Not so much the fact it was heavy but the weight distribution in trying to lift it with just that one top handle was quite ridiculous.
  10. The closest I got to a bass related Xmas present this year was some baddass shoes (debuting at my next gig) and I did impress my step daughter by playing along with her favourite Little Mix song.
  11. As much as I like to BassCHAT, I also like to BassPLAY... I barely have enough time for the one account!
  12. Another recommendation for Reservoir / Chris. We cut what became the final Case Hardin album there. I only played upright bass on one track but Chris was easy to work with. Definitely more Americana than Rockabilly but it's all just different shades of the same colour.
  13. I have to give a special mention to Hofner's Verythin long scale bass. EVERY time I play it, I get compliments. You get a lot of bass for the money and I took mine on two UK tours and a European tour earlier this year.
  14. When I got divorced the judge said my ex-wife was entitled to 20% of my earnings from music. I replied "so how much will she owe me?"
  15. Having previously fallen foul to the GAS attacks of owning several different colours of the same model, I now have a nice variety for what I do. Fender Jazz Fender Precision Gibson Thunderbird Rickenbacker 4003 Hofner Verythin Long scale Upright bass plus a couple of other basses for mucking about on but these 6 cover all I really need.
  16. I have an Orange 4x10 cab and an Orange 1x15 cab so I would like to respectfully suggest everywhere that is outside of my kitchen!
  17. Thank you, that's very cool. Who were you're old band?
  18. I liked the idea of these but tried one in a shop in Bath a few years back. The neck was more matte than gloss which isn't my preference. Obviously a lot of people are the other way around but that was what put me off.
  19. My weight did go up in my 30s but having cancer made me look at my life and get myself back in shape. I weigh the same at nearly 47 as I did at 22.
  20. Ha! You just beat me by literally seconds!
