    I managed to pick this little beauty up from the bass Center in Wapping London (for those who remember Nick and Alex great guys super helpful) That bass is long gone now and I do miss it I’ve a attached a clip from an inconcert I did with JTQ bass sounds amazing .https://youtu.be/G0GbKxsobK0?si=wy4n_dUEiC7E3HlT

    Hi Matthew thanks for sharing this info at such a sad time I’d have gratefully gone for a coffee at the cafe in Highgate woods as we did on numerous occasions. Without Lawrence’s guidance I’d have been pretty useless as a musician and my wit a lot less sharper.🙏🏽🙏🏽

    Hi, I’m researching the best way to re create the sound of an upright on my Dean Pace EUB. I’ve tried using a condenser mic which sounds fantastic but feeds back like crazy once the desired volume level is achieved. I don’t want to upgrade the piezos or preamp but have been contemplating trying the “Tone Dexter” preamp.


    I can justify the purchase as it can be used in conjunction with my acoustic upright as well, but before I do this I was wondering if it’s a stupid idea (in relation to the EUB)

     

    ok I’ve said it, let the merriment commence 😃

      I meant to add; getting your playing technique right will be the biggest first step, of course.

      PPS. I recently got myself an EBS Micro Bass pedal, which is also something else you may wish to look into - it offers good tonal control / EQ options

      I wonder if a 3 Sigma upright bass impulse would work for you. Obviously, you'll need an IR loader device.

    One other I knew him and went for lessons at his place in Highgate London.He taught many great bassists around that time as well as at his classes at Goldsmiths college. You can jog his memory about the interview we did for making music magazine
