  1. I’m disappointed to have missed this deal…maybe there’ll be more similar soon. Is the blowout because a new version is coming?
  2. Superb looking bass. Try a MIJ PB 62Ri as mine is way lighter than my American made precision. Lovely neck too and the pickups seem to have more character in them.
  3. Not forgetting that our very own flag can be linked to any number of atrocities throughout the last few centuries. There’s just as much slave trade history with our own country as with this flag.
  4. Thanks folks. Both of these look like great pieces of gear (don’t know if there’s a uk equivalent) and sound brilliant in the demos on YouTube.
  5. Hiya, Does anyone know if any shops over here stock the Broughton SVPre or Master Effects Super300? Cheers!
  6. Headliners Friday Pearl Jam Saturday Led Zeppelin reform with Jason on drums again Sunday Foo Fighters
  7. Think it’s now on my hit list. This or the Two Notes Revolt? Similar form factor, price, features. If anything, the Ampeg seems to have more appealing can sim features!
  8. This is not helping GAS. I have a Streamliner, so it has the valve front end, but I’m itching to try a CTM.
  9. Saw this on Facebook but have no information other than the picture. Looks tidy and look forward to finding out more.
  10. Really liking the look of the Wingman….
  11. I wanted a BB for a while when I was much younger just because Michael Anthony played one. Had no idea if it was good or bad and didn’t give it any thought at the time. Still have never played one. looking at how well received the Revstar six string is across all its price ranges and I really like the aesthetics, I’d love to see a bass guitar version of that shape, with the body upsized a bit to keep the proportions correct. That’s something I’d save up for and buy.
  12. Hiya everyone. So, band has been going for over ten years (we’re mid forties) We are all friends and have just finished writing and recording our third self made album. We are dedicated hobbiests, rather than a band looking to make it. We play a handful of live shows a year. Our drummer has decided to look for a covers band and earn some money for drumming duties so has decided to leave us. Having a look around the usual websites following a Google search and direct messages some of the more likely contenders and nothing back at all. Any suggestions on finding a drummer in any other way?
  13. It is indeed metallic ocean turquoise.
  14. Thanks Duroc. I had a gig with it a couple of weeks ago and it did not disappoint. It was lovely actually. Teams up very well with my Genz Streamliner and Hudson Broadcast that I use to add a little bite to each note. Sounds great with fingers or a plectrum. Very pleased with it indeed.
  15. I’ll be playing with my band, Sula Sula, at Behind the Wall in Falkirk on 9th Sept. Two half hour sets (first at 8 ) playing mostly originals with the odd cover. Won’t have any amps or drums mic’d up, so just vocals through the PA so it’ll be interesting to see how the sound goes.
  16. This appeared in my inbox and looks like a feature laden amp and if the exchange rate works out doesn’t seem a bad price for all the functions it has…. https://peavey.com/trace-elliot-te-1200-bass-amplifier-head/p/03618570
  17. Going to see The Gaslight Anthem in Edinburgh tonight. Can’t wait!
  18. Big Wreck. Amazing musical skills and song writing. They’ve been around so long that they split up, Ian Thornley went solo, then they reformed again. Only reason I didn’t listen to them previously though is that I hadn’t heard of them😂
  19. Seems GuitarGuitar have more left handed than right handed😂. A couple of nice used right handed basses seem to be it!
  20. I reckon they’ve enjoyed the boom too much and made far too many guitars and basses of certain models lines. Now the shops and their warehouses are full of them and they’ve saturated the market so don’t need to make as many now.
  21. Here’s a photo of the bass used in Bon Jovi, Runaway. From 1984 but what’s the bass guitar that Alec Such is using? Just noticed it whilst watching with my son this morning.
  22. Thanks very much. It is lovely, isn’t it. my new found set up issue is that I don’t really know what to do with the funny threaded saddles. I’m finishing it difficult to get strong spacing even across the bridge. Is there a knack to it?
  23. Looks great and sure it is excellent to play. The necks on the Reverend bases feel great. Did you try the Mercalli when you were in the shop? If so, how was that?
  24. That looks awesome. I’ve just got hold of a cij on-62 and it’s ace. I’d say a step up in tone from my American Special. The neck on the American Special is ace and this is too in a different way. A bit more depth but just as easy to find my way around. Can’t fault the build quality. Hope it goes awesome.
  25. Resurrection of this thread as I’m gutted that my new bass has received its first major ding. It’s been relatively unmarked for 18 years until I received it this week. Distraction caused by children (please let the summer holidays end) has led to this. Dent with paint broken at the trough of the dent. Photo makes it look bigger than it is, but it’s on the top bought so really visible. is this the type of thing that gluboost is designed to repair?
