    [quote name='muddymesser' post='806742' date='Apr 15 2010, 12:12 AM']theres no chance i'll sell my car its going to be a while before i end up on stage believe me its mostly to make sure the bass works when plugged in [/quote] Should be enough to tell you it works. Don't turn all the knobs up when there is no sound then go looking for the problem. You can break music speakers pretty easily with bass. A dinky practice amp is going to be as cheap as anything else if it comes to buying. If a bass doesn't work when plugged in, it's rarely a huge issue to make it work.

    Should be able to chop of the jack and put a new one on from Maplins or wherever, just note which wire is connected where.

    2 minutes in and I realise this is not jazz covers of Sex pistols songs.

    Not too fussed about losing the job, was temping, and surrounded by boring women talking alternately about getting fat and being hungry. Edit, kinda drifted off the point of 'pedals added'.

Let me know the crappy offer and I'll send an insultingly lower one first, so they feel like they're scoring a good deal.

    Grabbed some as losing the light: Forgot about this, I put a hardwood shim under the neck to give the strings some clearance over the pickup: The birdseye:

    When I get home, am at work, just been given notice, so spending my time securing an income for next coupla weeks.
  13. Mr. Foxen
    Bump. Just been given notice from my job.
  14. Mr. Foxen
    Picked up on ebay because I've always fancied a telebass, I found that the neck is not as chunky as the original, bit more modern. It does have a lovely birdseye maple neck though. I've [s]put a Dimazio Will power in the neck and[/s] strung it with groundwounds, so it feels like flats but still has a little definition (not much, still is a neck bucker bass). Its pretty light, and has really nice bookmatched ash facings. Basically, not planning on doing anything that thumpy at the moment, so its the most spare bass, and I have incomings. £150, come try it in Bristol.
  15. Mr. Foxen
    Forgot price.
  16. Mr. Foxen
    Now all the other ones appear to have gone, this is spare, still prefer my EBS one, and really have no need to octaver anyway. £65 posted

    Early ABM 8x10 bass cab. Celestion speakers, that came on models before the blue speaker jobs, so it looks properly old school. I haven't tried the Blue ones, so can't comment on the sound. One has been replaced with an equivalent from Celestion. Don't really want to sell it, but this is big cab number 4. Sounds like an 8x10, looks like a big black box. Dug out some photos, but it does look like a rectangular black thing with white piping round the grill. The specs here mostly seem to apply, size and such, but the handles and speakers are different: [url="http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=17"]http://www.ashdownmusic.com/bass/detail.asp?ID=17[/url] Currently it is wired to run as two 4x10s, for one box dual amping, but easy enough to return it to standard 4 ohm or 16 ohm, let me know and I'll do it. Gone, collection in central Bristol.
  18. Mr. Foxen
    Probably right. Likely something has come loose and is being microphonic.

    Get two cabs the same, both 4x10s or both 15s. Hit up the amps and cabs for sale section and get something there. That is plenty of money to play with. Where are you based?

    [quote name='jim_at' post='804704' date='Apr 13 2010, 11:30 AM']Valves work in pairs, right? I've ordered a pair, so hopefully if I just change the pair of which the individual broken valve is connected to, it should be ok? Rather than replacing all four valves.[/quote] In this amp they work in pairs, but if there is only one bias control, you are adjusting the bias for all the valves.
  22. Mr. Foxen
    Does it have individual bias on each valve? If so guess you could check the rest. If not, then probably supposed to get a matched set.

    [quote name='Stylon Pilson' post='804626' date='Apr 13 2010, 10:13 AM']I wouldn't recommend this. Assuming that the 210 is an 8 ohm cab, then you'd need the 410 to also be an 8 ohm cab to keep the combined impedance above 4 ohm. However, this will then mean that when you run them together, the speakers in the 210 are working twice as hard as the speakers in the 410. S.P.[/quote] 16 ohm 2x10 is best way, then its equivalent to a 6x10 at 5.3 ohm (usually marked 6). Probably better buying my 6x12 though, be lighter.

    hi there

    Bump. My practice space is letting me store it for free since its not as much of a pain in the butt as most cabs.
