Help Help Help - 5-string needed.

[NancyJohnson]

While I'm pining for the arrival of my Lull 5-string, I am in desperate need of a 5-string loaner (with reasonably bright strings) for an evening so I can complete one song on a recording session we did yesterday. I tuned down the bass to drop-D and it just sounded too [i]flappy[/i]. The Lull I have a Lull on order is unlikely to drop for another 4-6 weeks at least.

We'll be going in for overdubs either first week of October or around a fortnight after that. I'm recording in Bracknell (Creative Control, South Hill Park) and would be happy to collect and drop off, or if you want to swing by and watch me misplay and gurn through five minute song, you're more than welcome to sit in and mock.

Like the topic title says. Help!

Got a self-made (with Jon Shuker) super Jazz 5 string active on groundwound strings. I'm 84 miles away however but could meet halfway?

Would BEAD work in the meantime?

I do have a bass strung BEAD...you know, that never actually crossed my mind. I'd forgotten about it entirely.

Bizarrely, maps show I'm also exactly 84 miles away to the east of Bracknell. Mike Lull Bryan Beller available. It would have to be after Oct 14th though and you would have to collect and return.

Strangely enough....I'm not
