[quote name='lojo' post='1203819' date='Apr 18 2011, 05:15 PM']Just checked the thread, Guildford eh, I'm playing footy there tonight, and will be there at least 3 other times this week for various reasons I'll PM you[/quote] Look forward to hearing from you mate

[quote name='purpleblob' post='1204454' date='Apr 19 2011, 09:12 AM']Did anyone mention the guy from Dire Straits - wasn't his black Wal on show at Live Aid.[/quote] That's John Illsley - and yep he played his black one at Live Aid. Another player - Gary Tibbs played a Wenge MK1 Custom with Adam & The Ants

[quote name='bremen' post='1204446' date='Apr 19 2011, 09:03 AM']+1, never had a bad experience buying or selling here; feels more like trading with mates. Cetera, still *loving* the CIJ P neck you sold me a few years back. It's become part of the best bass I've ever played.[/quote] That's great to hear! Glad you're still enjoying it mate!

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='1201099' date='Apr 15 2011, 07:39 PM']My Genz Neox 2x12T is 600watt 4 ohm, 2 of them with a head that will take 2 ohm would be very tasty and impressive looking!

[quote name='Paul S' post='1201806' date='Apr 16 2011, 01:47 PM']I've done it again, had to book an evening out tonight that clashes with your nearest gig. Gary - when and where are you nearby to SE Essex again?[/quote] Not till next year mate - sorry!

[quote name='Funkmaster' post='1199116' date='Apr 14 2011, 10:18 AM']High Heeled Sneakers is often part of our live set - I had, mistakenly perhaps always believed the venue's PRS license covered the songs played there.[/quote] It [b]is[/b] covered under the PRS licence.

You can pretty much play what you like 'live' and put it on CDs that are given away free for 'promo'. It's only if you sell 'product' with the recording on that you will get into murky waters.... For clarification ring PRS Membership Dept or continue your contact with the MU.....

[quote name='Matty_C' post='1198190' date='Apr 13 2011, 02:12 PM']I've had a look on the forum for a topic on this and havnt yet found one. Basically im in the process of completely re-fitting an old bass with some new electronics. I already have a set of EMG - HZ 40 pickups to go in, but I cant seem to match up a decent pre-amp. Looking for 1 Master Volume, 1 Master Blend and a bass and treble EQ oh yea and I want the EQ active. Does anyone know if the Bartolini sets are any good?? Thanks[/quote] Ask if anyone wants to sell their 'Spector Tonepump' in the 'Wanted' forum... that should do you....

[quote name='Monckyman' post='1197881' date='Apr 13 2011, 10:30 AM']Sorry but.... Why would anyone pay up to £600+ to go play for free for someone you never met? Doesn`t spec who hires the gear/drives the van. SOME food will be provided, so no P.Ds either. Also, the amount of gigs is pretty vague, between 7 &12? So he doesn`t know, and its a month away? Big Hmmmmmm Also, I`m presuming he will be getting a proper work visa and not just a tourist visa? You really don`t want the seppos gripping you working without a work visa. They dont appreciate it. So, less than a month to pay for your flight, and work visa, and learn the tunes and cancel any paying work you may have already. Who could resist? [/quote] Big +1

[quote name='lemmywinks' post='1198025' date='Apr 13 2011, 12:21 PM']I'll say it again: Hmmmm..... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=128602&pid=1197957&st=0&#entry1197957"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...p;#entry1197957[/url] This wasn't a misunderstanding methinks.[/quote] Doesn't look good, it must be said....

I'm pretty much GAS-free (thank God) but there a [i]few[/i] things I'd still [i]LIKE[/i] to own... [u]Basses:[/u] Spector SB1 custom build Spector NS2X (Thunderbird shape) Fender 'Steve Harris' Precision Fender Jazz MIJ/CIJ 75RI in 3TS Mouradian CS-74 Ibanez Saber/Sabre Bass (in petrol purple preferably) 80's/early 90's Warwick Streamer with EMGs Yamaha BB2004 or BBNE2 (black or white) [u]Amps/Cabs:[/u] Genz Benz Streamliner Bergantino NV610 - Edit: OOPS! Just gone and bought one!

[quote name='NickH' post='1195606' date='Apr 11 2011, 12:34 PM']Now I'm left with the choice of tracking one down on the 'bay or going for a cheapie Behringer model. Anyone got any experience of these? Folks turn their noses up at Behringer kit I've noticed, but their kit seems to have a good level of reliability on the road...[/quote] Dont.... just DON'T....

Bumping for our gigs THIS weekend: [b][u]April[/u] 15th Stourbridge 'River Rooms' 16th Ipswich 'Manor Ballroom' [/b]

An oddity with this amp is also that the drive control is on FULL when at the lowest (7 o'clock) position and OFF when at the highest (5 o'clock) position!

[quote name='jackruston' post='1192856' date='Apr 8 2011, 01:40 PM']Ooh that Bergatino cab does look like a good solution. Do they come up used much? Jack[/quote] Sadly, hardly ever...
