  1. That’s up for sale, a lot… think that’s the third or fourth time in the last two years. I think Jaydee basses are ace. And the BB3000 is recitals one of the all time greatest passive basses (the 3000a obviously different) it’s like beer being nice and Coca Cola being lovely…but you wouldn’t mix them.
  2. Wild Beasts. was introduced to them years ago when “Two Dancers” came out. Hadn’t really followed their progress much as I get easily distracted. Gutted I didn’t as they’ve disbanded and their subsequent albums were absolutely masterful. “Present Tense” and “Boy King” Also, Bombay Bicycle Club are on the speakers a lot at the moment.
  3. Without being a grim reaper…I worked in a music shop for 12 years. We inherited a Surdo from another branch who’d had an order cancelled 4 years earlier. I counted that Surdo at 11 annual stocktakes… weird - because when tuned and played appropriately; it sang. it was £100 by the end of my time, and I think the original cost price was £140.
  4. Just got an LMB-3 from Fleabag. ace packaging, super quick…etc
  5. Yeah - really enjoyed that one @lurksalot
  6. Did a jack socket/setup/clean on one of these years ago in the shop - bloody great basses.
  7. Another meet up today - again, very much demo stages https://on.soundcloud.com/is7e9nC92msBGsCk6
  8. That unique “oh my god I want it” when I’ve already got one feeling 🫣😂🥴
  9. “£1 a house” in chimney pot park. Used to be seen at the start of Corrie.
  10. @woolf no actual Yamaha ones unfortunately, some similar, but not yammy ones
  11. https://on.soundcloud.com/M6aypH6vc1qqB9D48 erm. last minute. all I could think of was Ride The Lightning and then when I set about it, I realised I haven’t played any metal, let alone early Metallica for about 25 years. oh well… here it is…”Hyde The Lightning”
  12. Yeah, this opened my ears probably about 20 years ago - I’d previously been dismissive of Jaco. A lovely bloke lent me his copy on dvd and straight away I was just able to get my head around it all. Changed my playing.
  13. I’ll have a rummage through the draws of bass bits tomorrow
  14. They were £8 a few years back, some folk were trying for £20 a knob on vintage ones… I might have one left, but I’m sure it’s cracked. a lot of people talk them off - they were used across the vintage stuff as well as some of the bbn range and 414/424/1024/2024
  15. https://on.soundcloud.com/S99n8QBXkZCkd6gB6 just messing currently, but working with a singer. everything is me except the voice. Callum Speed - lovely guy. trying to not keep the constant “funk” angle going.
  16. I’ve not earned from originals for about 10 years so I don’t really think in that realm - sorry 🫣
  17. Ah yeah sorry - there’s no wage in it as far as I know.
  18. Hi guys, Met these lovely lads through join my band - Mark and Anthony. They’re doing some interesting funk stuff. I’ve bowed out due to my own inability to decide whether or not I’m still a bass player interested in being in a band or not… They rehearsed in Bolton (DOA) when I met them, but I think Preston is also a possible base. My loss is your gain - please contact them on [email protected] If you’re after really decent players starting out on a funky project. thanks Trav
  19. I know @BigRedX speaks very highly of these. I played an original shergold, but it was fretless… found it more intuitive as a bass player than the fender vi.
