Hi,

Been playing bass 30 years... first bass a £50 Kay junior scale! & 10 watt lane amp.

Things have moved on since then!

1st serious bass a Jaydee MK 1987... cherry classic.

Now running 4:-

Alembic series 1 small body bubinga - very rare - awesome!

Alembic Stanley Clarke standard - gorgeous quilted maple - 1997 phenominal to play

Fender Jazz deluxe - one the 42 Mark King series with blue SIMS



Zon Sonus custom with spectacular spalted maple top - amazing bass

Effects by TC Electronic - G system - stunning quality...

Amps:-

MK500 with Alembic super filter (SF-2) in front for phenomenal clarity!

Alembic F1X tube pre through Ashdown PM1000 power - biampable with crossover (ex Adam Clayton power) into ex Adam Calyton ASS410 Ashdown ba & big ben 19" sub... wow!

MArk bass F500 - wow!

GK MB150E III head - great chorus!

Trace AH150 - for retro memories!

Ashdown Bentley bass cabs (410 & 15) & 210 bass monitor ala MK

Mesa Boogie diesel road ready 15 - lush sound and good for parking amps on at home!

Ashdown MINI 48 - beaut to look at - sounds great at home - can't cope with fender rumble...

GK 115LB - ultra compact cab.

oh yeah - it does! Mark (King gave me two sets in 1989) and I never looked back. They lack bottom end but the flexibility is unbelievable. I can't use anything else now - it just feels so heavy and inflexible. impossible to create dynamics like Mark (or Stanley) with heavy strings...

Hi 30507090

Welcome and have fun and I bet you still miss your Kay Junior :D

I'd love to have the old Bontempi Bass (Woolies special) just to see how bad it really was!! But hey, it was a good learn experience.

Photos would not upload though. Sorry

The simplest way is just to copy 'n' paste them. There are other ways as well; for example you can go advanced by using the "More Reply Options" button to the right of the "Post" button, and use the paperclip there. A bit quirky though, as you'd also have to "Use" the uploaded pix at the insert point.
I'd say: go with direct copy 'n' paste.
