  1. [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1456992993' post='2994216'] Oh, and the You Can Call Me Al - I fretted about that solo/fill for ages, until I YouTubed lots of people making a total arse of it (including a couple of Paul Simon's live bassists), at which point I relaxed a bit [/quote] I used to joke with our keys player that no one would notice if i didnt play a single note during this solo, just made it completely percussive, to the same rhythm of the actual solo. I did it once, and had a bigger cheer than when i played the solo proper Can only echo everyone elses sentiments though. There is more waiting around, but in general, the crowds are far more "up for it"

  3. Ok deleted my original vote, which was just for 1 And have now picked the 3 i liked most. Tidy
  4. Agreed! Also, are we voting for our top 3? Or just the one, then the top 3 will be worked off that?
  5. [quote name='Kevin Glasgow' timestamp='1456769603' post='2992086'] Hi folks, Here's a new video from my band Preston-Glasgow-Lowe. Hope you enjoy it! [media]http://youtu.be/qvU4EizrbMA[/media] Cheers, Kev [/quote] That is mental. The good kind
  6. Bought a bass from Marc Excellent comms. Agreed to meet me half way as i couldnt go the full distance. And the bass was set up exactly as i requested. Couldnt be happier. Cheers

  8. Sold an Alfonso Iturra 5 string years ago because i didnt get on with 5 strings. Still dont. But for some reason, i REALLY wish i hadnt sold that bass.
  9. Just caught up with a few of these. Some good ones! Gonna be a tough choice Skol, i enjoyed the funk. I'll bring mine next time
  10. I would guess it's somewhere around that, but im going to try buy some scales on the weekend to get a proper measurement
  11. [quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1456489450' post='2989525'] Really nice looking bass kert I want to upgrade my fretless hmmm.... [/quote] Always welcome to come and try it first Marc! Superb bass We could have our own mini bass bash
  12. herbercham - I'm not sure off the top of my head, i will look into it later and let you know. lee - i cant answer either of those questions either sorry, hopefully Andy will be able to help
  13. [quote name='ead' timestamp='1456475533' post='2989316'] I love fretless basses but having just acquired something else Kert I'm short of sufficient Wonga atm. [/quote] Haha, sure you cant be tempted....
  14. Andy, those prototypes look amazing too
  15. Thanks Alain! Paul 5 - I'm not sure if I'm totally honest. Andy - Thank you very much for all that information. Far more than I knew about the bass. If I played fretless at all I would keep it. But in the years I've had it, I've never found use for it outside of the house. It is FANTASTIC to play though!
  16. I have had this bass for a while. It was my "just in case" bass. I've played it now and again in the bedroom, but no more. I don't see that changing, and since i have seen another bass i do like, this will help fund that. This is a lovely bass. Looks great, and plays fantastic. [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185434042.jpg.html"][/url] Very smooth sounding, i think it punches well above it's pricepoint [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185442394.jpg.html"][/url] The ebony fretboard looks fantastic against the white body and mint coloured scratchplate [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185451944.jpg.html"][/url] I don't know much more about the basses origins, but here is the back, showing the serial number. Maybe someone else will be able to tell more from it? [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185636841.jpg.html"][/url] It's in great condition [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185613860.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185626790.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185527871.jpg.html"][/url] It's a excellent bass, at a excellent price, and a great way to "dip your toes" into the world of fretless without spending a tonne. Trials are always welcomed. I will post or courier, but it will be at the buyers risk and expense. Any questions are welcomed
  17. Just sold a bass to Alain. Very easy deal. No problems at all! Cheers
  18. Keeping the tecamp too? Bet it'd sound good with that PUMA
  19. Looks like it was destiny then Can you get any sound clips up? How would you compare it to a more modern Fender?
  20. Surprised to see these. I tried them up at Bass Gear and they are brilliant. I just opted for the S112s. Absolute ridiculous price too. Cracking bit of kit for someone. GLWTS but i dont think you'll need it
