stingrayPete1977 Posted September 15, 2013 Author Posted September 15, 2013 I am liking the braces but no hats? Quote
timbo1978 Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 One step at a time, we just got the braces, hats come next ;-) Quote
MandShef Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 With Sheffield Philharmonic, tackling Mahler 5 I think. The four basses got to sit centre stage on a raised platform, instead of being hidden at the back for a change! Quote

blinddrew Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) Couple of me demonstrating my appalling left-hand shape (self taught I'm afraid!) and poor right-hand position. But in the second one you can just see the edge of my flat cap that the bass was wearing as it got a bit too hot :¬) Cap \ Edited September 30, 2013 by blinddrew Quote

martthebass Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1376830143' post='2179584'] I had a search and realised I could not see a DB/EUB porn page or one for putting gig shots into, I know I want to see you lot and your gear in action so I have started one, only EUB for now but hoping for some DB pics in a few weeks at an acoustic gig.

Silvia Bluejay Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 These photos are awesome. I'd love you guys to create photo threads for each of your bands in the Gigs forum, and copy these pics there, and then I'd pin the threads (and eventually create a subforum dedicated to them) Quote

ChrisF Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Very cool pics Rev ..... very nice bass too Quote
TheRev Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Cheers guys! The bass is an East German ply from the late 60s as far as I can work out - probably from the Musima factory judging by the dovetail neck joint and the V profile neck. I had a bit of work done to the neck and fingerboard and it plays lovely now. It looks a lot prettier in the pictures than it does in real life - it's got a fair few battle scars! As for having a ball... I'll be honest with you boys- I don't remember a whole lot about the gig in the last three pictures. We got to the festival around 2pm, the sun was shining, the mood was high and the scrumpy was free. We went on at 10pm.... Quote
bassace Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I think my German blonde is the same. It's a sixties instrument and has a V profile neck. It's starting to make a very nice sound but I'll have to take the string height down over the winter. Too good for a beater. Quote
geoffbassist Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 @TheRev you are playing some COOL gigs! Great photos and that band looks like a lot of fun! Quote
fatgoogle Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Here's one from a gig in whelans. [URL=http://s298.photobucket.com/user/fatgoogle/media/samdoublebass.jpg.html][IMG]http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm244/fatgoogle/samdoublebass.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote
