  1. The Genz neox 2x12T is already vertically stacked, weighs nothing, has inset one piece handles (no rattles) ,rubber rollers instead of rear feet (again no rattles) and adjustable tweeter. I actually have a Genz 1x12T too (I know, greedy) it's great but it's less than half the big one if you know what I mean. The Neox once trounced a pair of 1x12 purple chili cabs, it's put me off a pair of 12's ever since unless you don't feel like you want that extra bit of something that I'm sure exists.
  2. I have said it before but I really don't think 2 1x12s are as good as 1 2x12, more versatile but something changes when they are not in one box. Try a Genz Neox 2x12T with any of the heads you are interested in and see what you think for yourself although that won't really be a gig volume. Mark is doing good deals on full Genz rigs if you go for a 2x12T too, good choice of Genz heads that will all sound awesome
  3. I was told by my mom many years ago "if you've got nothing nice to say".............
  4. I have a bit of gas building for one of these too, put me behind TNIT please
  5. One string short or I'd be on it too
  6. Can someone just put one of the transvestite slapper clips up please?
  7. If you bought a pickup from a shop new (not 'as new') I would not want it to of been used in any way, I can see both sides and the term as new should be reserved for items that are as new, ie still in the cellophane with a receipt from maybe a few weeks ago, in that instance if I was the seller I would just say send it me back and I will take it back myself. Should as new be banned from the fs section?
  8. I have been playing guitar for 25 years and bass for 20 yet this is my biggest weakness, I'd be interested in an idiots guide to the common controls (me being the idiot ) I just fiddle about until I like what I hear but there must be a more methodical way of doing it?
  9. [quote name='icastle' timestamp='1342283212' post='1732817'] ...and don't forget the appropriate way of training your guitarist into the 'getting things right' methodology... ...get the timing right and you can leave the chord that he missed ringing whilst you explain, clearly and concisely, that 'getting things right' is a really good idea... [/quote] Bloody hell Ian he can't even hold it the right way round, must be hard work?
  10. I have a fiddle with mine most days! It's an Ozark, solid top, mahogany back and sides, built in microphone, cost me £250 second hand from a local shop. It's great
  11. I like the slant, its cool, modern, retro and forward thinking all at the same time!
  12. I can't sing for toffee Mart so thats not a problem for me! Nice bass line though, plays nice across a five string too, I like the fill after the guitar solo even if I normally screw it up!
  13. I have been playing stealers wheel stuck in the middle with a dep gig I have for a few months, never played it before but it's a good one that goes down well.
  14. It's only new once! If I had bought something and never opened it then sold it on here only to find it was faulty I would concider sending it back if I had the receipt and it was still under guarantee providing I was happy the buyer was not a penis or broke it somehow, if it was out of warranty I would of tested it fully before selling it anyway.
  15. [quote name='JPJ' timestamp='1342442615' post='1734936'] Come on thebassman, we're all waiting to hear the outcome of your group shoot out [/quote] +1
  16. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1342467233' post='1735737'] That's what i get for jumping straight in to talk about what *I* do Well in that case, I would recommend finding a used Markbass head (usually found for £300 - £400) and chuck it in the gig bag... might end up preferring it to your main one! [/quote] No one noticed after I posted the same thing on page one so you win a fiver! TBF the OP did say what do you guys do, use the PA it appears, maybe "what would you guys do?" would of been clearer. And 1+ on the amp thing, I actually prefer my backup shuttle to my bigger shuttle tone wise so there is something to be said about that
  17. It appears everyone else uses the pa as backup but as I said before that does not really help the OP as he stated he does not have that option! Oh well I have a DI on my amp but unlike the others I have a DI on my [i]spare amp [/i]too Get a nice little class D mate it solves all your problems and weighs nothing, you can still use it as an amp for practice etc too
  18. If Im sat at traffic lights on a dual carriageway and the person next to me is texting I move forward a little bit and as they see you out the corner of their eye they just start to drive off, its great fun! My engine and frame protectors arrived this morning that I ordered ages ago from China! bollox
  19. You remeber this one then Dude!
  20. I have said it many times before but get a set of metric and imperial allen keys £7 from Maplin for box with every size you will encounter, do some reading, ask on here etc and you will soon get the hang of it. A mate does my fine tuning of the intonation as he has an awesome tuner but I get it all how I want and the intonation as close as I can, its much easier If you can fiddle about all night until you get it how you like. You can always keep a note of what setting you found best too.
  21. I have got more gigs from being punctual, prepared and making sure I have the right gear for the job than from my actual playing skills, which is lucky Nice one
  22. There is quite a big gap from regular wizard to great wizard for some reason, 1 second or under for great wizard.
  23. If you can type I think you can use the keys, I can't so have struggle with the mouse.
  24. I prefer the 2 EQ anyway, anyone know if it's the trusty old circuit or a new Chinese version nothing like it? Repro ones are cheap enough and might make them sound just right, also has anyone whipped a pup out to see if they are parallel wired?
  25. Good luck!
