  1. Bump. This is quite a lump of bass for not a lot of cash
  2. Getting into and then keeping a band together is becoming an unrewarding experience, especially covers. I'm not bothering anymore. The thought of having to learn another set of covers I'd rather rip my ears off than listen to fills me with dread. But no one wants to do originals it seems. It makes you wonder what songs covers bands will be playing in 5-10years time...mustang sally again amd again?
  3. Thanks. I've got someone interested so fingers crossed
  4. Late night bump
  5. [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1428780917' post='2744537'] Not a sentence one sees on BC very much [/quote] Her favourite colour is red and she likes how sleek it is. Unfortunately I don't plan on joining another band so it won't get played and basses need to be played
  6. [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1428878409' post='2745652'] Andy Summers is still happy to pick up the royalties from Sting/arsehole penned Police songs then? [/quote] He doesn't get royalties from the songs Sting penned though, only Sting does.
  7. ...and my Yamaha TRBX
  8. The last two basses I've bought have had active/passive switches so you can play in either. I think it's something that should be on all active basses. It gives a lot of options. Luckily on these two basses if you set the active tone flat and then switch to passive you don't notice much if any difference in output or tone. I only really use the on board active eq on a bass if I'm not going through an amp anyway, otherwise I set it flat and use the eq on the amp to make any adjustments I want.
  9. They already have targeted this site. There's a ban on the sale of any Rickenbacker or Rickenbacker clones, look-a-likes etc.
  10. My eyes a firmly peeled on Lemonrock . There was one on there but I it's material that I'm not particularly strong on.
  11. Well done Lee, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't have been able to last a whole gig like that. [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1428842947' post='2745083'] I had a full on migraine mid gig a while back, a truly horrid experience, with visual disturbance/blind spots and seriously painful headache. Standing next to the drums was truly torturous. [/quote] ..or this. Last time I had a migraine that bad I thought someone had put my head in a vice. I had less pain when I had appendicitis.
  12. My band has split up so I am looking to get into or start another band. I'm enthusiastic, committed, have and my own gear and transport. I'd be interested in either an originals or covers band. My musical tastes are also quite broad. Get in touch
  13. Winning combination, no doubt about it.

I look after my basses so it's in good condition. It's got that very slim Ibanez SR neck and a very sleek body. This bass is very light, the lightest bass I've owned. This is the model with the sought after style sweep eq, which is no longer available on the current SR300's.

  15. Steve bought an EHX Switchblade+ from me. Classic Basschat deal, prompt payment and good comms. Pleasure to deal with. Cheers
  16. Jamming to me means making stuff up on the spot, not playing covers...that's a whole different thing. It's why i don't bother with jam nights, because they aren't what i feel are jams, they're untidy open mic nights
  17. I quite like the look of the RPB-65. I could do with a P style bass and I don't want to spend a lot and these seem to fit the bill. Oh the GAS!!!
  18. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1428489323' post='2741689'] You can't have too many Barefaced threads! I have a one-cab solution too, but it's not a Barefaced... so I'm going to stand over here in the corner with a lampshade on my head. [/quote] You might get mistaken for that singer Sia who was on the tele programme with that Micheal McEntire the other day
  19. From what I see most well known bass players don't use a text book technique...they just play
  20. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1428230711' post='2739289'] Luckily mine's for sale - £900. [/quote] Wrong colour, I'm not interested
