What a superb collection of players this year. Yolanda Charles and Ricahrd Bona were superb, but T M Stevens absolutely blew me away. What an awesome set and what a character. Nice to meet up with Ped and some other BassChatters. Must get some BC badges nmade next year.

*SOLD* Zoom MRS-1044 Multitracker

Hi F, Could be interested. Let me know if you do decide to sell it. Cheers, Stuart -
Forgot I still had this Bump.........

I got a 1x15 from the same people. They are the manufacturers of Ashdown, (and Trace, Orange, Cornford, Sound City and HiWatt to name but 6), and the deal with these cabs is that they were end of run units. Ashdown changed the design of the handles from rectangular to oval and these cabs had already been CNC'd. The result being they were loaded up with Celestion drivers and sold off. I got mine with a Celestion 15" neo and it was awesome, (and quite light). OK you don't get the Ashdown badge and the red piping is amatter of taste, but genuine Ashdown kit all the same. The company is run by ex-Trace/Ashdown employees and they reckon this was the best cab they ever made.

[quote name='spinynorman' post='318570' date='Oct 30 2008, 05:54 PM']That went down like a lead balloon. So is the Spector market saturated by the Sound Control fire sale, or is that just a very unrealistic price?[/quote] I think there could be an element of the Sound Control situation as anyone who "lives" on this forum will have clocked the fact that Rebops were going for £300. I was one of the fortunate ones to get a Euro 5 so I am a happy chappy. On t'other hand it could just be general lack of money at the moment until we can all get our funds out of Iceland..... Had a look at Homer's ReBop a little while back and they are awesome basses. Good luck with the sale.

Courier points system and courier issues
BassBunny replied to paul, the's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Another +1 for Interparcel (TNT). Had to send a bass back to The Bass Centre and not only did they collect the Bass but the same guy dropped off a Zoot Cab. Normally it would be 1 delivery guy and 1 collect guy. Someone really got their act together. Oh, and the Bass arrived safe and sound. -
Best time to announce leaving a band...
BassBunny replied to Cantdosleepy's topic in General Discussion
Having quit one of the bands a couple of months ago here is how it went. I had decided to leave as the relationship between myself and guitarist, (HIS band!!!!), had deteriorated so that we were hardly talking. I decided to tell the band after 1 particular Gig, (out of respect for my other half who sold it), and also there was a 3 week break due to holidays etc . We were using a Dep drummer that night but I told our regular Drummer beforehand as I have the greatest of respect for him and we got on really well. When I came to make my announcement the bloody guitarist pre-empted my announcement in the car park when we were loading by saying, "Stuart, I think we need to talk". My reply, "Well actually A..., I have decided to leave the band so not sure there is any point." I said I would not drop them in it and would play any Gigs they wanted and help find a replacement. Not heard a word since, (which suited me), other than from irate venue owners who haven't had their usual courtesy call before the Gig and "Where are the Posters!" -
[quote name='Adee' post='315756' date='Oct 27 2008, 01:07 PM']You will not do any better than these : I-Solutions I-Color 3 and even better if you have a band member prepared to use the foot controller you can get some great light shows. We've had loads of comments on how great the lights are. We use the i-Color 3 set, granted it will cost you about £400 for the full set including the box but the bulbs only cost £1.00 from the DIY shop cos they are std halogens !

[quote name='NickThomas' post='314691' date='Oct 25 2008, 06:42 PM']I've heard of an incident of that also . But it was on a tribute . I've strung my L2500 through bridge for getting on for 5 years and haven't had a problem That said ... better to be safe than sorry edit . I see yours is a tribute and I'm no way saying that's a bad thing . I've still only heard of one incident [/quote] Yep Nick, I'm with you on this one. Better safe than sorry. I do like the strings though, so will be getting the longer ones.

[quote name='NickThomas' post='314669' date='Oct 25 2008, 07:03 PM']Wont they even fit your G&L if they're strung through bridge?[/quote] Hi Nick, they will indeed, however there have been a number of "reported incidents" of G&L bridges being ripped off when using the string through bridge option. They are only secured by 2 screws. As it is probably the Bass that gets used the most, I am not going to risk it...

Something for the Weekend Sir? New set of Bass Strings?

Another Set Sold. 2 Sets left

Like a complete arse, I bulk bought 4 Sets of D'Addario EXL 160-5's and have found out they are a gnats whisker too short for my G&L. Had I gone to the DA web-site first I could have avoided such a stupid mistake. So I now know I need the super long version, ( which will also fit my Spector), and these aren't much use to me. All Sold. Thanks All

[quote name='BigBeefChief' post='306998' date='Oct 15 2008, 12:16 PM']Perhaps it suffers because its not particularly fashionable? I love Carlsbro gear. These heads are really under rated by all accounts.[/quote] Couldn't agree more BBC. Slap the "flavour of the month" badge on it and it's sold in minutes. This whole rig is absolutely awesome, particularly for the money. Shed loads of trouser flapping, bass. The neo driver in the cab give it loads of mid as well. Just check the pice of an Ashdown ABM115 Neo and you realise what a bargain it is.

I have a couple of spare sets of Web-Strings Detroit Nickels. They are 5-String sets 45/65/80/100/130 I bought a good few sets and they are lasting really well so thought if anyone fancies trying them, I can spare a couple of sets. These are they: [url="http://www.webstrings.com/electric_bass_strings_detroit-nickel.html"]http://www.webstrings.com/electric_bass_st...oit-nickel.html[/url] They cost me around £11.50 a set including P&P and HM Customs share. How about £11.00 a set posted? ******* Only 1 Set Left *******

[quote name='Pris-' post='302797' date='Oct 9 2008, 10:13 AM']Bring your relatives, Silverfoxnik! The more the merrier! [/quote] Will be there again this year. Much better venue than the earlier events. Wife uses it as an excuse to go shopping in Manchester. Could be a dear day. Looking forward to meeting up with John & Barbara Lowe, (Gary's parents). Haven't seen them since last Bass Day due to gigging. Anyone having problems with the BassDay site crashing Internet Explorer. I can't get on it at all.
