    I don't listen to aggressive music when I want to let off steam. It just makes me even more mad. I will listen to 'Don't Worry Be Happy' by Bobby McFerrin if I need a sense of perspective.

    Hi all! Here we have my very recently acquired 2002 Musicman Stingray in a not oft seen 'Translucent Purple' finish. Allegedly only 50 made in this colour. Maple Neck. Ash body. 3-band electronics. Just strung up with DR Pure Blues. Really disappointed to be selling this as it looks fabulous, sounds even better and is in excellent condition (bar a scratch which the previous owner put on the back, from allegedly trying to open the battery compartment with a screwdriver 😳. However, it was advertised as being 3.5kg in weight and when I got it home, it's 4.6kg (to be fair, a ballpark figure for most of them, pre-specials) - having a severely damaged shoulder, this was not good news. I thought I'd try it out at practice last night just to see, but after an hour my shoulder just flat out gave up - so it has to go, sadly. All in perfect working order with the Musicman hardcase (also in super condition). Also comes with a mirror scratch plate if that's your bag. Located in Moreton in Marsh on the Gloucestershire/Warwickshire/Oxfordshire border. *Will not post* however, as previous deals will attest to, I'm happy to drive more or less anywhere for a handover, as long as you're not at the extremities of the country. It owes me £1100, so this is what I have it up for. Would consider trades for one of the following (and they HAVE to be sub 4kg examples and in good condition) ; Warwick Thumb BO4 and cash my way Warwick Streamer LX5 Warwick Corvette 4/5 + cash my way. Thank you for looking!

    Is DI (dog interest) pre or post dinner?

    Normally two small bottles of beer. One before to loosen me up, and one in the break between sets. No more - no less.

    Sold Bill my Ibanez EHB. Thoroughly top bloke - very easy to deal with - a gentleman personified. Affable, friendly (even after I made him wait an extra 30 mins or so due to an unforeseen pitstop en-route). Cheers Bill - Hope you enjoy!

    I used one of these in a rehearsal room a few times, and honestly, I agree. It was a very, very good sounding head. With lots of clean headroom and quite a clear bottom end (oo-er!).

    And indeed they have - no fuss! I just can't believe how a single packet of strings could be so 'wrong'! 🤣

    I recently purchased some DR Fatbeams from Amazon (through DR's Amazon store) and also dispatched by Amazon, so the real thing. Opened the set up today 2-3 weeks later, and not only was the A-String completely and utterly dead (to the point it didn't even sound like a bass string at all) but they packaged two G strings instead of a D (so, E-A-G-G). Absolutely woeful QC - I've never had a bad string in 20 years until today! When it rains, it pours!

    Just the video. Wal on record.

    Good lord above. 😰

    Rather weirdly, the Ray is only used for the slapping parts/verses. All the fingerstyle sections of that song are an Alembic Epic (including the solo). He used both basses to record that track!

    This. I've tried to buy 2 basses this year where the seller just wasn't bothered about actually selling the bass. My reasoning was these ads must exist to placate the other half.

    The one I saw in PMT looked like 2nd from left, colour-wise.

    Hello Josh, What's the weight on this one?
  17. 40hz
    On my BH550, I've never had it 'not' work, even using a multitude of different basses. Jazz/P/stingrays/MTD/Spector/Modulus The only time it's ever not worked, is when something is plugged into the aux port or effect send/return, or the Toneprint being selected isn't a head-specific one.

    Little late to the party here. The K-Series cabs had drivers made by a company called 'LaVoce'. I had the 2x10 version and they were *excellent* - best 2x10s I've ever used.

    I feel a stirring in my loins.

    Hi there, No trades on this one I'm afraid - apologies!

    Bank transfers are by far my preferred method. Simple, quick, safe and as long as you both have mobile banking (which most do these days) - you can see the money is in your account there and then. Also means you don't have to take a trip to the local bank/Post Office to deposit wads of cash!

    Mark Felton's channel is one of my absolute favourites!

    I've said before a couple of times, I get the idea that 'something is only worth what someone is willing to pay' and I do agree with that to a point, but, truthfully, I think we can all give most basses a ball park figure, and more often than not, a lot of basses I've been interested in, are way over this. And, so, they sit around not being sold. Again, I've said before, the new market for these once ubiquitous, meat and potatoes basses, is 5 years away from becoming outright unaffordable to all. At this rate of constant price rises, within 5 years, you'll be looking at 4k+ USA fenders and 5k+ Stingrays. At that point, I would suspect, the demand will drop heavily, they will then be sold and marketed as boutique instruments (a la Wal/Fodera/Alembic) and the current budget/import lines, are then, themselves, rebranded into the 'real thing'. There's also been a huge shift in the industry towards more budget orientated models - brands like Sire are knocking out Basses of unbelievable quality for a low price, and absolutely cleaning up with it.

    Alex bought my Reverend Bass. Great Comms, absolutely no fuss, and a friendly, nice bloke to boot! Good meeting you! Enjoy the Rev!
