    Is there demand for a "synth bass only" player in live bands?

    Great suggestion. Yeah EUB is something I still want to try and see if that could work. I played some upright before and really liked it

    Is there demand for a "synth bass only" player in live bands?

    Hi Guys, I've been away for some time from the forum. The main reason is that I was having some issues with my neck that radiates out to my wrist and it has been hindering my ability to play the actual bass guitar. I've now come to the conclusion that it's just not wise to try to play bass in a...

    Just ordered an Ashdown CTM VALVE PRE

    I ordered directly. Initially it was supposed to be shipped in one day.. 1,5 weeks later and 4 e-mail further, still no shipment. Not sure if they aren't on stock or if there are some other issues.

    Uninspiring update. I cancelled my order after two weeks and 5 times the promise "it will be shipped tomorrow".. I already finished the project I was hoping to use it on. Maybe I'll buy one locally after the summer holidays

    NBD: Vox Humana Custom Shop P-bass

    regarding the strings being misaligned. That's just the photo's I guess. Strings run perfectly down the middle of the two pickup polepieces.

    Yeah it wasn't shielded. I shielded the control cavity to start with and the buzz is a lot less now. Indeed a sub $5 fix. Although it's not dead quiet, but good enough to not bother me.

    I think you are correct. I mixed em up.

    NBD: Vox Humana Custom Shop P-bass

    Thanks! I'm gonna see how I like it in a couple of months. I'm getting back to music with a new recording project and a new cover band. If I still feel it's the best bass ever I will probably order another one just like it to go with flats. Only without the relic. Perhaps in shell pink or something

    I really don't know why I can't insert these images, and on my phone it is definitely not working, so perhaps this will work..

    NBD: Vox Humana Custom Shop P-bass

    I went into my local Luthiers shop to get a minor issue fixed on my jazz bass. While waiting I browsed the p basses they had. And eventually picked up the one I thought I for sure wouldn't buy. Roasted neck? Not sure. Relic? Not really my thing. Badass bridge? Nothing wrong with the bend steel...

    Availability of Fender basses in Europe

    Sweetwater isn't shipping to Europe. In fact I only can visit the sweetwater site if I am on a US VPN, otherwise it says that you are offline.

    I think we might be checking different Thomann sites. Of these only a B stock performer is showing up as in stock on Thomann.

    Availability of Fender basses in Europe

    Is it just me or is it getting way harder to find anything else besides player or professional series basses around here in Europe? I'm in the market for a new P bass but don't really like the neck profile of the Player series (a bit too thin for my taste) and was disappointed with the price vs...

    Just ordered an Ashdown CTM VALVE PRE

    Nope.. I emailed them on Wednesday, that I haven't heard from them while they guy initially said it would be shipped right away. Apparently some technician wanted to check them first because this was the first batch they received.. no news after that.
