Hey Guys my bass neck playing history has gone Squire 2007 P-bass neck Yamaha Attitude LTD II 25th anniversary (i sure its always been the same the Attitude neck but i'm not sure) and i recently played a MINT 68' Tele bass neck which was nice but from the transition from the Squire P (which many bassists i know have said the neck has been a little on the large side???) to Attitude i've loved the hand filling neck but as i'm still growing (i think!) and my hand has grown (or been stretched?) and i'm used to the huge neck which i find very comfortable but now i'm looking for something bigger and i love really wide nut area basses with fat thick necks so what is there out there? i used to love borrowing my mates 5 string bass which was modified with a four string bridge (which is why he got it, it was cheap but i loved the width) but it was a little to wide as the strings were so far away =S anyway so what is out there? Adam, Note: I'm mainly talking about 4 strings but i am buying a 6 soon (RBX JM2) and so am open to 6 string stuff to!)

[quote name='jmsjabb' post='651023' date='Nov 10 2009, 08:46 PM']Can't you buy a cheap hard case to get it home then sell it on? I could recommend but he would charge about £100! You are asking alot from someone to transport an unprotected guitar without damage.[/quote] i guess, i'm just looking for a way of getting it here so suggestions are welcome! thanks, any recommendations on what i should do? as i am buying the bass you see

Hey guys Looking for a courier to get me my dream bass! Unfortunately i can't get down south my self to pick it up but i need a courier, its a six string, no hard case (i'll have one made professionally the moment i can, any recommendations on that?) best courier to get [i]her[/i] to me unharmed? and also insured? looking for modest Pricing (god love the rescission(sarcasm!) he bass is down near london i'm in Aberdeen recommendations on courier? (and hard case maker?) Thanks in Advance! Adam

Hey Guys, Any one know why the BA115 and BA115T were discontinued? A fault perhaps just a thought, Adam,

Ampeg SVT610HLF better sounding than a single SVT810E IMO but when you have 4 SVT810Es' blasting, you can't beat the brain shaking sound!

Hey Guys, I'm on the hunt for a power amp, (preferably nothing D class, i'm looking for something better, Also my signal chain would be: Output > Pre amp > power amp > cab) with my attitude and recently acquired SVP-BSP and hopefully in a few months SVP Pro and two SVT410HE cabs (all bought for about $1000 in good condition too!) I'm looking for a power amp, so any other 500W at 8ohm users? Or SVT410HE users? i'm only asking for user used recommendations as i've found two companies 500W never to quite be the same, at least not here in the UK Thanks for your in put guys! AC, I was looking at the CROWN xls802 D but its D class and i was told to be weary of D class wattage??? =S Help please

Hey Guys, I was looking at a Crown XLS 802D, and they seem like really good units(any one else used these?), but £430 is too much for me to spend, as i'm currently paying off my Attitude bass and i'm currently buying an Ampeg 410E cab from ashevens09 I need a power amp that is 500W at 4ohms per channel i was looking at the Peavey CS 1400 thats £350, thats still a bit high but if i had to i'd go for that, any one else used one? or the Peavey PV 1500 which seems identical to the CS 1400 but cheaper? =S Do you think you think i should go for the Peavey CS 1400, save up for the Crown XLS 802D (any one used one? what do you think?) or, does any one else have any suggestion [b]500W at 4ohms per channel [/b] for a good price? so as much below £350 as possible Regards Adam

i have to play lots of jazz trombone pieces and the bassist in that band always complains about 19:8 a personal favourite 51:32 makes no sense to me could be simpler, but i guess the guy wrote it to be a b***h

Hey Guys Question, i went to a gig at the local hall (i'm that cool) and i asked the bassist what was in his rack, he had Ampeg SVT 4 pro a tuner and a... a power conditioner? he said it was essential, he said he's never not use one??? why? he said becasue you need one? said it was important? I was and am confused any one else using one? if so, tell me why i should use one i don't even quite know what they do, they are to prevent overloads or something right? =S Adam,

[url="http://www.allianzmusicalinsurance.co.uk/"]http://www.allianzmusicalinsurance.co.uk/[/url] Specialist musical insurance. Been great for me especially my precious and rare saxes, as well as my basses.[/quote] oops! >_> lol well there is this shifty russian lad jokes he is ace oh, also it would be MI5 as that is security of this country, not threats from out side the country out side the country sorry to be picky, i watch to much bond... lol

Hey Guys, I just spend almost all my money and plan to spend the rest of it on gear, so i want to have it insured just in case! my families house insurance only covers your stuff over £500 when its at home, once taken out the house the contrcat is seen as broken, i went through all this with my trombone, but when i joined an orchestra they had insurance that covers every member all the time that was that sorted, so i want to insure my Bass and amps and all that jazz where do i go? how much will it cost? etc anyone? Adam,

They were new, unopened, and the owner of my local, is my neighbour, he also knew the other guy who's shop went bust

[quote name='gnasher1993' post='624385' date='Oct 12 2009, 08:41 PM']Something here seems a bit dodgy to me...make your mind up. Did you buy them or were you given them? Also, none of the pedals you mentioned retail (in fact they never have done) at £110. If you were given them, then whatever return you make is a profit so maybe you should some good deals. They would definitely sell quickly. As I say, this all seems a bit dodgy to me...[/quote] To clarify, they were bought by the shop owner 12 months ago, and Boss said the RRP here is £110 for their pedal line =S But it makes no difference now, i gave all to my local music at £60 each so its now irrelevant but thanks for your input guys!

a variety, i have one of each of there "bass" pedals two ODB-3's two Guitar distortions 4 TU-2 tuners (me and a load of friends knew a guy who's music shop closed, he had nothing to do with a load of pedals so gave them to us, he sold everything else) but there are so many i have one of every thing

As i said, sold to my local music shop Adam
