Mine has sadowsky branded units, look like hipshot

If it’s of any interest...the original “guitarist audition” piece - live in a room. Single Rode M1 - needed another really, but does a fair job at high SPL - drummer is louder than a jumbo jet. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CbEpWb-ax4unl9dipC9JsRlMCPCZhdnj/view?usp=drivesdk

Nope. Sorry guys. Maybe @Bassassin would have a clue?

Sometimes financial ineptitude. Sometimes for different gear. Mainly because it’s only stuff...and newer stuff is exciting-er. But I’m looking at the current crop...I want a new car, so I’m thinking something might go to clear the decks financially and just be happy with my Orange BB.

Yeah, he’s a nice bloke - hope it works out.

Yeah - he’s booked in for next Thursday

Right...singer is ill so a no show - although he told us yesterday he’d do his best. He called me today and sounded like crap. He offered to pay for tonight... Instead we tightened up some new ideas, and Andy the new guitarist paid for rehearsal. sounds ace.

You actually took the time to type it in?!

Well, if he rehearsed 5 times a week with his previous band, it really didn’t show.

Hahahaha. Jesus Christ. The odd folk are out in force.

Did someone already say Martin Clunes? If not...Martin Clunes is a bass player.

Oh. How embarrassing 😂

I never went away...

Like the video too

He described himself as a singer/guitarist. on both counts he was wrong. ”let’s hope he doesn’t play bass” I joked.

Another day, another singer... well, he said he was. ”he sounds like he’s in pain” ’don’t call us - we’ll call you (not)’

Too right to be wrong if that makes sense...some bits of wood slipped through the 9.5/10lb net.

that mustang looks more like Ice Blue - like my Miller.

Nice there was a duffed up one (earlier model) for £29, sure enough it was gone in seconds.

this one?

Wasn’t the streamer/Spector NS thing initially a licensing deal with Kramer? I’m very tired and should think more before typing...

All cards off the table currently, just bought an Aria with my Yamaha fund...

Just made a little rosewood shim for under the body end of the neck. The bridge is a typical “high mass” jobbie seen on 90’s eastern made basses, so I couldn’t get the action really low - I’m so lazy. it plays brilliantly now, and I did a little test recording with it, sounds great. So, need to get some fresher strings on it and it’ll be put into use on Thursday when we audition singers.

If someone posted this “I made a bass in my shed, and while I’m happy with my first attempt at a hand stained burst finish - I know what I’d do to make it better...” I’d be really supportive. But that, coupled with the “we sanded through the finish - but clear coated it anyhow...” is a bit of a joke.
