  1. My TC 208 has the same Amp and had the same issue. The black component in your photo is a thermistor which had disappeared completely in my amp, just two burnt stubs left (see photo) After a Google search I found others with the same problem which led me to buy a replacement thermistor from eBay for £1.25. A five minute solder job later and it works again.
  2. I play in a function band playing a wide range of songs. I don't use a lot of effects, only on 4 or 5 songs, mostly Synths or maybe an Octaver. I use a TC Spectracomp and a Zoom B3. In my opinion the Zoom does a great job for the occasional effects user like me and is great value for money.
  3. I last owned a Precision about 15 years ago but this arrived last week... I think the colour is Blizzard Pearl ?
  4. For the last 5 years or so I've been using a Airturn BT-105 with an iPad (running Setlist Maker) that i picked up second hand on eBay. Its always worked flawlessly and is great for quick changes between songs when you've not got time to swipe to the next song with your hand.
  5. My main gigging bass is a sunburst orange Fender USA Jazz with a Fender high mass bridge and d-tuner fitted. Its currently strung with Orange Dr Neons.
  6. I had a MarkBass LM + 1x15 for a while which I really liked the sound of practicing at home etc. It had loads of bottom end and really I wanted to like it but I just felt it got lost in the mix when playing with the band and I was never really happy with it. When the TC RH450 came out I bought that and an RS210. For me I find the TC gives a tight, well defined sound that sits nicely in the mix. Of course its all personal taste but for me the TC sounds better in a band situation and even after 8 years I've no desire to move to something else.
  7. Could I ask why you replaced the N3 pickups with the EMGs. Also, would posting be possible ? Thanks
  8. I’ve got one of these. Mine is strung with orange dr neons for extra tango goodness The finish is really nice - both the colour and the grain showing underneath. These don’t come up very often so I’m sure this will sell
  9. Neil, you have a PM Horrorhiker, "Hi !" from just up (down ?) the A14 in rainy Ipswich
  10. Thanks Neil. Its a shame I'm not closer but I'll have a think (and more importantly a chat with the wife !) as this would go very nicely with my little collection of jazz basses - natural, sunset orange and lake placid blue, all maple neck Darren
  11. Hi, Where are you based and would you post this ? Thanks
  12. I always feel like I've been out on the lash the morning after gigs. I'm sure its got worse since I hit 40 and found a fear of needing to visit the gents mid set !
  13. That's a great colour and would go nicely with my natural USA deluxe jazz.... its a real shame about the damage, will have to have a think about it ? I'm sure someone will snap this up though !
  14. ...and sold to me Now looking forward to picking this up and giving it a blast with my other 2x10
  15. I set up a profile on [url="http://www.bandmix.co.uk/"]http://www.bandmix.co.uk/[/url] with my details, some pics, a few MP3 and saying I was looking for a band..... I had about 10 bands contact me including my new band with whom I do my first gig with next weekend
