    Up for sale is my immaculate Cort C6 (home use only). This was a lockdown project for me as I'd never played a 6 before. Lots of fun but I don't have the time to invest in playing a 6 string so I'm moving it on to free up some funds. Professionally set up with DR Sunbeams, it plays and sounds great. Bartolini pickups and a markbass pre, I think it's a lot of bass for the money. I'll post a video clip below so you can hear it in action. Comes with a 'tourtech' hardcase which is also in great condition. Looking for £395 which includes UK delivery. Now sold Spec from the Cort site: CONSTRUCTION Bolt-On CUTAWAY Double Cutaway BODY Mahogany(Palaquium) Body w/ Zebrawood&Maple Top NECK Canadian Hard Maple FRETBOARD Jatoba FRETS 24 SCALE 864mm (34") INLAY White Dots TUNERS Die-cast Tuners BRIDGEEB12(6) Bridge PICKUPS Bartolini MK-1 Pickups ELECTRONICS Markbass MB-1 EQ HARDWARE Black Hardware STRINGS 6 Strings

    Very slight neck dive, the tuners are lightweight which helps. I found that because the body was bigger than a standard electric my right arm would naturally balance the bass without any strain due to the fact that the whole bass is super light. Hope that helps!

    I'm selling my Ibanez semi-acoustic, it's vintage inspired, very light and sounds huge. Only selling as I'm trying to free up some funds. It has recently been professionally set up with a new set of labella flats and comes with a protection racket case (£100-£150 new). Both the bass and case are in excellent condition. Collection only. Now sold.

    Up for sale is my Yamaha BB614. It was de-fretted by the previous owner and has since been professionally set up (currently strung with Thomastik flats). Plays and feels really nice. Only selling as I'm upgrading. It is a little road worn (see pics) but it's a very well made bass for the money. Would make a great bass if you fancy getting into fretless playing. Looking for £150 collection only (no case or box). Now SOLD. Specs found from a previous sale post of the same bass. Construction: Bolt-on neck. Scale Length: 864mm (34"). Fingerboard: Rosewood. Frets: 21 Large. Radius: 250mm (10"). Body: Alder. Neck: Maple. Tuners: Open type. Bridge: Vintage Style. Pickups: Split single coil, Soapbar single coil. 3 Band EQ.

    Very nice! What’s the weight?

    Hey, I've recently started creating some backing tracks to practice along with, here's a Neo Soul style backing track with no bass. Let me know what you think!

    I had the MXR for a while but it had too many controls for my liking. I definitely prefer simple pedals. Thanks for the kind words - that Bromberg piece was a challenge!

    Just realised that this should probably be in the 'groove library' part of the forum - oops!

    Hey, I recently created a backing track for my bass students to practice some fills/timing. I figured that I would share it here in case anyone fancied trying it out. Let me know what you think!

    Hey, so I got round to uploading the track, here's a link and explanation if you feel like jamming along! http://www.alexphillipsbass.com/blog/funk-bass-fills-practice-track

    Thanks 😊 - I made the backing in logic, when I get a second I’ll bounce it out minus the bass and share it on here.
  12. alex_1_2_3
    Thanks 😊 - they’re killer basses!

    So I recorded a short demo track using the filter twin. It's such a killer filter pedal! What do you guys think? Any filter twin fans out there?

    Looking for a Digitech bass whammy - message me if you have one to sell.

  15. alex_1_2_3
    That seems like a fair price!
  16. alex_1_2_3
    Thanks 🙂 I know what you mean, they are quite pricey - I got mine as B-stock although I'm not really sure why as I can't see any mark on it. I've not experienced the sliding on clothes problem yet. I didn't use any effects on that recording although I did use the UA 610-B plug in with my Apollo twin interface and a little compression. Live I just use the built in pre amp.

    I've had my Yamaha SLB200 for a little while now and I think it's possibly the nicest EUB I've played - both in terms of the tone and playability. Not long ago I put on some synthetic evah slap strings and I think it gives a fairly convincing old school tone. Here's a short video example. Any other SLB200 users out there? I'd love to know if there are any mods that can give an even more convincing double bass sound.

    The first lockdown hit me hard, I lost pretty much all my work overnight, amidst this panic and uncertainty I did what any self respecting working bass player would do... panic-bought a 6 string bass! I’ve always loved this track ‘The Mirror’ by Brian Bromberg (who by the way is an incredible musician!) and the 6 string allows me the range to play it. So here’s my version of this track - I hope you enjoy it! For the gear nerds: Cort C6 DR Sunbeams Gruv gear fret wrap Apollo Twin MKII

    Temporarily £1400 for quick sale (I’ve seen something that I like!)
  25. alex_1_2_3
    Oh man! If my Sadowsky RV4 sells I’m all over this!
