    Pretty much sums the Faces music up, and I like their stuff. In the spirit of the band, I wouldn't worry about being note perfect, just come up with your own line and enjoy it! As you say, "in tune and in time" is all you need.

    Cute rig. That image of the girl looks photoshopped to me....
  3. franzbassist
    Same.

    I sold Loz a Mono gig bag. Great comms, immediate payment, thoroughly decent chap.

    I wouldn't say they were particularly thumpy. The La Bella white nylons in particular have a very nice bright top end (jump to 4.30 in this video).

    How about La Bella nylon flats? Lovely medium-low tension and the standard gauge set sound full and fat.
  8. franzbassist
    Apparently they were developed for Chicago Music Exchange by La Bella. Pure nickel roundwound wrap on a hex core. No silks at either end. Lots of different gauges and scale lengths. Tension I would say is medium-high. Tone is pure nickel: warm, with sweet highs Feel is wonderful, they are so smooth your fingers fly over them with much less squeak.

    Anyone else digging these? I absolutely love them.

    The main house bass in my son's school band is a Cort. I took it home to give it a set up and a service a few weeks ago and was blown away by how good it was. These look great. I think Bass The World have reviewed a Cort fan fret too?

    Yummy
  17. franzbassist
    I thought the same initially, but I'm used to it now
  18. franzbassist
    SOLD
  19. franzbassist
    I missed this post, sorry! They sound fantastic, I love the tension and super smooth feel, but they are quieter when played acoustically.
  20. franzbassist
    As Cuzzie says, this should fit easily.
  21. franzbassist
    I think it's a no. I tried to put a laptop box in that was about the same size as a Helix and it's just too big
  22. franzbassist
    Hi Ian The walls of the bag are soft and certainly flex, so yes it does "give". I would imagine if you took the controller bag out it may even go in at a slight diagonal. I'll check when I get home tonight 👍 Cheers Gareth

    I'm changing around how I store my basses at home, so I am selling a black Mono Vertigo. Condition is excellent. Hardly taken outside really. Pictures will follow tonight. Looking at recent sale prices here on BC, £125 posted in the UK looks right. Thanks for looking Gareth
  24. franzbassist
    Thanks guys, yes I have been looking at Gator, Magma and UDG too. I was thinking of getting the Gator G-Club Control at £39, but then I remembered I have this! And it's perfect!
  25. franzbassist
    Now that is a good shout, especially as I forgot I already have one I’m not using!!!!! Edit: Takes all I wanted to put in it and more. Perfect.
