NOT GREAT NEW BASS DAY - EBMM Ray HH Matching Headstock
Sibob replied to Musicman20's topic in Bass Guitars
My buddy is selling a 30th Anniversary Stingray (obviously just a 'H'), pretty much mint, one tiny dent I think. A fair bit less than what you paid new. I have to say I would also never buy blind, I have trouble buying a bass that I haven't tried at a gig, let alone one I haven't seen at all. Glad Darren @ Bass Merchant is on top of it though. It sounds like you should take the refund, follow up your issues with EBMM, and look elsewhere. I tried a lovely Sadowsky Metro in The Gallery a couple of years ago, £1600 then, but lovely bass! Si -
Im taking credit for this one Si

Some people find it empowering to do it....weird huh. If she's so talented, why has she spent the last 10 years with a deal, writing for others....oh wait, that doesn't work. Some people choose to come out and perform, why should they be lynched for it? Si

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1317753428' post='1394206'] Here today, gone tomorrow... Good luck to her and all who sail with her. But it's not music that has any longevity to it, IMHO. [/quote] Yup, pop music has only been around for....what?...2 years, something like that?! Si

Ok cool, thanks, so that covers block colours and things like that, but what about little designs and details etc, what do people use on their boutique pedals....like Wooly Mammoths and the like?! Cheers Si

Hurrow, Looking to paint a couple of plain metal enclosures (they're just unfinished metal). What is the best paint/varnish to use? I'm litereally coming at this with no knowledge at all Cheers Si

The best distortion for me (sound like a whole band)
Sibob replied to matt_citizenbass's topic in Effects
I found the ODB-3 to be completely useless I have to say. its all fizz, with no distortion in the low end. I've had much better results from the Boss Mega Distortion, think I picked up mine from ebay for £30 inc adapter and postage. Si -

If you use a Bass Collection Comfort strap beware

[quote name='wateroftyne' timestamp='1237019151' post='434381'] Biiig wide all-leather & straplocks for me. None of this plastic nonsense! [/quote] +1 I had a strap go at a gig about 6 years ago and it was the plastic buckle, caught my bass but had to do a song knelt down on my haunches. I use Klondike straps on everything now, wide, comfortable all-leather straps Si -

Sibob replied to silverfoxnik's topic in Events
What a fun day huh, actually I think it was the best one I've been too, just from a personal perspective, found it pretty productive from an 'ideas' point of view. Cheers Shep et al. Sorry I had to leave at 2pm, had to get back to Bucks to get the van to Southampton....was in at 5am , only to get up at 9 to go to the London Tattoo Convention. Had my foot tattooed and now I'm hopping everywhere....what a weekend haha.

Hey all Cheers guys....I haven't actually seen it yet haha, a few people have written on my facebook about it yesterday and thats the first I heard about it, it was submitted about 6months ago. Gear changes since the article was submitted include the Jap Squier P going and a '71 P added, as well as another Compact now (2 in total). Looking forward to getting hold of it Si

[quote name='wombatboter' timestamp='1316758829' post='1382369'] the smile which never leaves his face I start to find strange (try it yourself to smile all of the time like he does while you're playing, you feel like The Joker after a while). [/quote] I think the point is that he's not 'trying' to smile.....if you have to 'try' to smile when you're playing, something is wrong imo, it should just happen because you love what you're doing!

I've never seen a Bona gig that has been anything other than mind-blowing. Find it incredibly strange that other bass players should be saying he should lay the bass down when he is such an inspiration, at the same time as doing the vocal/guitar thing....very odd. Usually at gigs he's very refined with his playing, he steps out with solos and fills etc, but you can always see that he's just having fun and a lot of it is pretty tongue in cheek, he's no serious jazzer!

Wow, someone using an OC-3, don't see many of those lol.....seems like the OC-2 is the standard Si

[quote name='urb' timestamp='1316509712' post='1378866'] Aye it's annoying - I could stand around chatting about music and or bass all day especially with so many likeminded people but life and music sometimes have to come first, I've got 4 quite important gigs coming up and reheasing on Saturday is the one chance we have before the first gig on Monday night - so doing, rather than talking about bass is the order of the day I'm afraid - see you next year I hope Mike [/quote] Ah thats a shame man, was looking forward to your class Will definitely have come in and catch a gig/get a coffee with you soon Si -
Just really expensive lol, any similar alternatives? Si
