    Are you home today @tobiewharton
  2. AndyTravis
    he had a vintage 5 in the same finish - I loved it
  3. AndyTravis
    Think the vast majority were just Sadowsky… he did have them waterproofed though.
  4. AndyTravis
    I’d adore this… Got to sell something probably to make up the shortfall of about £200 or so 🤦🏻‍♂️
  5. AndyTravis
    I had boxes. I’ve sold 2 basses - now I have no more boxes. But, Mrs Travis has just ordered some stuff that’s arrived in big boxes, so I could work something out. The bass you’re dying to own…is still available 😉😉😉

    Feels about 25/30 years a bit too late? he was using them from the load/reload era. “Newsted” as a band are done. Dunno - love the bloke, and he was probably well up there with Flea as my early influences/inspiration… But £7000+ for that? Big fat Meh.

    Effffin ell! Wowzers! so sorry to see a fellow bassist with damaged digits… I now know why I borderline refuse to use tools or do DIY other than painting and hanging pictures. Wishing you a speedy recovery mate - hopefully a good result and some rehabilitation work and you’ll be back at it.

    Not today… the BEX is on its way to Cornwall - and I sold the other ABG. im sure I could get something together fairly quickly (Mrs T has just had some new suitcases delivered)
  9. AndyTravis
    Performed admirably at the beeb… But - it’s now done its job. I’m selling everything except the ripper and the orange BB, so it needs a new home.
  10. AndyTravis
    It covers so much ground; seems to do everything really well - it’s a lot heavier though…so if someone could find an 8lb ripper…I’d be beans chuffed. My 76 was the lightest of 4 @walshy had 😂
  11. AndyTravis
    Separation of EA/DG So you could theoretically only have effects on treble strings etc.

    Tentative feeler this… I cannot shake the desire for a stingray (I know, I’ve had about 7). Other idea is a 70’s style jazz. so. If you want a British made 44 year old Ric/Wal/Precision hybrid thing…here it is. light. Stereo (and mono) enabled. Light (8lbs ish) road worn ish…(it’s in better condition than I am) …light 🤣 I’m a bit torn really as it’s actually been an inspiring bass. But the ripper is winning every time. would rather trade - but…I’m open to ideas. Has a very old and battered case which I can only assume is original. Oh, and it’s all original, cover, no cracked finish etc… postage is an option anyhow….i reserve the right to come to my senses at any given moment.

    I always played Telecasters, 72 custom and 72 thin line.

    Sorry. Totally zero context. intimate 2 hour set from Marcus Miller and band at Ronnie Scott’s - Mrs T got tickets for my 40th. It was phenomenal really. Only about 15ft away from the man himself as he regaled us with stories and anecdotes and played a blinding set. Started off with Panther, did numerous other favourites - including Run for cover which was unbeatable really. was funny, as we queued up - a small unassuming guy walked towards the entrance with a Tracksuit top and Jeans on, big rucksack…and a pork pie hat… He literally walked in as we were going through the door - very chilled and cool. some moron soup guy grabbed him for a selfie - didn’t seem too happy about that so I didn’t get to say hello…met his keys player afterwards who was a serious player. Anyhow - if you’re ever at Ronnie Scott’s, don’t bother with their food 😂

    Erm…
  16. AndyTravis
    First EP
  17. AndyTravis
    just been added, officially meant to release Monday…but whatever
  18. AndyTravis
    Yeah - they self disassemble, quite the quirk 🤦🏻‍♂️
  19. AndyTravis
    Yep, so on the soundcloud clip the main body is middle settings, like a gritty sound… the bigger sounds/more gain are the top and bottom switch settings. gets into that spiky synth level in a lovely way…it’s a great sounding thing - but I get close with 2 pedals together and can switch them in and out and use their individual sounds for different tracks
  20. AndyTravis
    Might actually need this to stay until 21/07 - typically, been asked to do an acoustic set on a BBC Manchester show 🤦🏻‍♂️
  21. AndyTravis
    How do. Got this a while ago, been working on 3 stages of OD, but have settled on 2. Really beautiful thing. Kerry Lambert (Zero Fret) makes this in various small batches - this is a few years old as he’s now branched out into fancy graphics etc. https://on.soundcloud.com/3BWdByvCinK2xXxc7 That’s what it sounds like…various settings used. Collect is fine, postage will be £5 or so.
  22. AndyTravis
    Sales. ”look Ted, these basses - we’re selling hundreds…I can’t keep up!!!” ”I’ve got an idea Mike…STEPS. Make the headstock like some hamster steps…you’ll sell f*ck all and the internet will mock you for years…” ”thanks Ted, you’re ace at really stupid ideas…” ”I know”
  23. AndyTravis
    Did we do this nonsense yet?
  24. AndyTravis
    You buy it - rip the frets out…you’d be such an idiot not to 😉
  25. AndyTravis
    I know…I know… I just…don’t use my 3 fretless bass enough without doing another
