    I’m mainly a jazz double bassist but I practice a lot of classical pieces Bach, Stravinsky, (solo parts) a piece Xavier Foaley, a couple of Tango pieces and some old Cumbrian folk tunes at home both arco and pizz. I play in an original folk/American band and play a fair bit of arco arrangements with the violinist. I was playing French bow but I have since developed ME/Fibromyalgia and have swapped to German so I can actually hold longer than 5 minutes. I was using EP Weich’s with the Pops and that was great but I wanted a better pizz sound so I have the mixed steel and gut setup. Does that help in terms of suggestions

    Many thanks for that I’ve read loads of reviews but personal recommendations are always the best. Leatherman Rosin looks great, I wanted to try Gaston Brohan Oak Rosin or Arnold Gregorian Oak Rosin but can’t find it anywhere. Kolstein Rosin gets hit and miss reviews, I can’t stand Rosin all over the strings so I’ll give Kolstein a miss.

    Thanks for that!!! I used to use Nyman’s, it’s fine on metal strings or strings with metal wrapping… Plain gut it’s just not cutting it, neither does Pops or Pirastro’s own Rosin.

    Hi Guys What’s the best rosin for a Chorda, Olive and Spirocores with a C-extension. Was using pops till it melted on a window sill…. OK but a bit a uncouth for my tastes. Is there anything that grabs the plain gut and metal wraps with equal aplomb but sounds smooth and rich at the same time????, I need some first world experience here in the UK as a lot of the reviews I read are from the States. Many thanks in advance

    What’s it like in IEM’s as I don’t use an amp like these days?, what DI do you use with the SBVT. I did use an NOI Edison valve pre, a Barber Electronics Linden and Audio Kitchen Small Trees Valve DI. Sounded mega but to many pedals to get the sound I wanted. I want something simple that’s fab. The DI in the BassRig and cab simulator was my first choice till I saw the SBVT, Shame it doesn’t have a DI

    These are fabulous instruments with great build quality, playability and a very musical passive/active circuit and pickups. The neck is to die for.

    I recently sold a couple custom basses and a load of pedals but unfortunately due to a world shortage of microchips. I’ve had to put the money in my business until I can fulfil back orders.

    Wow what a stunningly beautiful Pino P Bass!!!!!! You had to put it up for sale while I’m financially embarrassed lol!!!!

    Thanks mate, had to pack in gigging due ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Fibromyalgia and I got all these pedals to build a bass/drums duo but my hands hurt to much. Sold all my standard scale basses… can only play short scale instruments now. It may change if I find a way to cope.
