  1. Does anyone relatively close to Hemel Hempstead have a Precision 5 string I might borrow for a couple of days?

      How close is close?  I'm just over an hour away and my Jake 5 is sitting doing nowt just now.

      Hey Paul, thanks very much for the offer, but yes probably a little far for the purpose. Essentially I just want to give a P5 a try on gig in London on Sunday......see if I like it compared to my 55-01 :).  But not enough to embark on a two hour round trip. Thank-you very much for the offer though :) 

  2. Don’t think it’s been mentioned in the thread yet, but TB have a section of their profile setup where you declare any commercial affiliations, which then appear under your avatar. Nice little feature, but obviously works on trust that someone will use it when appropriate. See how one of my posts looks below, I’ve highlighted the feature: Si
  3. So they can easy go between the bass in the video, not have to keep taking it off. Makes sense Si
  4. I think it looks fantastic, simplicity and function. The first 50 sold out on their website in like 2 hours or something. Si
  5. Lol, you make an exception to give yourself more work? Si
  6. I’d say so....it’s extreme maintenance?! Lol Plus guitars are silly soooo..... Si
  7. As many have mentions, 'classic' synth sounds can be achieved with cheap gated fuzz, envelope filter & octave down pedals. Other than that, for a one pedal solution, quite frankly I've not heard better than the Meris Enzo Si
  8. I think that's what they call a 'binge relapse' 😂 Si
  9. Oh quite, my mildly flippant remark only works in the ‘lost’ scenario. Si
  10. That said, if it’s lost, say it’s in a hard case and claim.....if they find it and it’s not.....well they’ve found it 😂 Si
  11. Don’t worry, the Basschat Podcast will be back soon!! Couple of weeks :)

  12. I think I may have underestimated how difficult this will be haha. In the interests of transparency, I've enquired about two basses.....I'm not proud of myself 🤭 Nothing has come of them (a Lakland 5 string, and an Elrick). There's also a Lakland Skyline 44-60 in FS that would make a lovely replacement for my Bass Collection fretless Oh dear. Si
  13. Seeing Jacob Collier tomorrow, should be fun . Mr Rob Mullarkey on (mostly) bass duties. Si
  14. These things happen, been a long time since I've had it happen, but still. Just to double check, you're not stringing them through body? Your wording is a little confusing. I bet you'll get the replacement A string and be good to go Si
  15. Donate to a school if the money is nothing to you. They are often crying out for such things and usually zero budget to purchase them new. Si

    There's a Chick Corea joke there somewhere. Beautiful bass, always had a soft spot for pearl white finishes. Si
  17. Her song ‘Corner Painter’, from upcoming album is also amazing, it’s on Spotify as a single. Si
  18. Oooo well spotted, they do, I missed them. Adding to the lists now Si
  19. Also, this particular specimen is touted at 10lbs (and a few lbs) heavy........that’s with the cut-out. 🤨 Si
  20. This is exactly how I use mine, with Precision’s and flatwound strings :). I also went with it over the Monique (which is amazing) purely because of its form factor and that it can power 6 other pedals on my board! Si
  21. Very impressed with the Gruv Gear Edge guitar case. It’s a perfect fit for the Mustang once you move the bottom cushions (which are thankfully velcroed), around a little. This allows the bass to sit a little lower in the bag, and also stops any side-to-side movement (as little as it was). Excellent quality bag, good price. So far, the best (only) gigging option for Mustang players at the moment IMO. Si
  22. Not European, but another vote for Nobel. Also check out the Jule Monique! Si
  23. Happy to assume that people will at some point want to experiment with different strings for different gigs. Fairly safe to assume no-one is spending thousands on collecting different strings sets haha. If you are, congrats, you found a loop-hole 😂 Si
