  1. I'd prob give something for it broken because better chance of being able to ix it than most, save binning it.
  2. Most people don't like the tweeter on those anyway, so no horn isn't a massive deal. They don't sell for much but they are a sensible size if not weight.
  3. Pretty much eq, plus bits of distortion in places, and high and low filtering. You can make a Markbass set to clean sound like an Ampeg by adding a Sansamp VT bass. The cab generally will have more colour than the amp set flat, but flat doesn't mean all the knobs in the middle.
  4. Looks kind of like a Mo clifton: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/13304-mo-clifton-basses/
  5. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1343670975' post='1753490'] I ran out of solder and ran to the local old old electronics shop, been there years (now closed ) asked for some solder and got some lead stuff.... best stuff ever - quite a step up from maplins basic stuff! anyway, I found this thread and that was my interesting comment on it! [/quote] 60/40 lead solder is still available to the hobbyist, just not from Maplins, because Maplins is a terrible shop that recommends you go to bigger fuses if the ones you bought before keep blowing.
  6. Do you have both pickups on full? Back one off gets you more mid in a more natural way. cutting some proper lows will help with the peaking, peavey heads do seem to do lots of low that isn't always fun for cabs.
  7. Bust open an ebay case anyway, worst that can happen is nothing. If he is being a dick about it it won't go well for him.

    Checked their other videos? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FtZ7KBjN24[/media] This one might be a bit more specialty interest: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojTEAjzM-0s[/media] I look for opportunities to say 'Get me Steve O'Malley'.
  9. I'd generally associate it with cheaping out on wood selection, and cheaping out on wood I associate with cheaping out on everything else, so it better be a cheap instrument.
  10. [IMG]http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b69/Incarante/TU2002.jpg[/IMG] £40 posted, with box, beat up though, been using it for years, but got a Pitchblack.
  11. There were a pair of chaps that set up a trailer to look a bit like a juke box and sat in it, drums and guitar, doing covers in a country style with costumes and such, the options where on the front and you pushed the button, it lit up and they played it. Seen them twice around my university, and every time I passed them for the whole event both times, they were playing 'Ace of Spades' They had about 20 songs and that's all anyone chose.
  12. As for the clipping, because of the use of valves with too much gain in it as standard, it will be clipping in the preamp most of the way round the gain dial, to clip the power amp, you'll hear your cab farting out before then, just need to listen for the wrong distortion.
  13. Sansamp BDDI has a clean out that works as a split, boss tuners have two outputs, wiring in two outputs like the attitude is fairly easy. Loads of pedals have multiple outputs. Some amps have tow inputs you can run a cable from the other one into another amp, like bridging inputs on valve amps.
  14. If this was another forum, we'd have club numbers for owning a former one of your basses.
  15. Loads of my favourites play with a pick, DD Verni, Duff etc. I can't be dealing with a pick.
  16. Sell up, ringfence the income from it, hit up trade section. Some money shooting about there could help me out a lot.
  17. With those round ports, you can roll up some card and make them telescopic and tune them by ear.
  18. All about a good service, will probably need some caps doing, and you can uprate them some for bass purposes.

    [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1343234193' post='1747527'] so, is the point that death metal supposedly sounds tinny and has no bass ? it feels a bit like i'm watching an impressionist impersonating someone i don't know. [/quote] Black metal. Pay attention. It is very nearly Steve Albini. Pretty good band.
  20. [quote name='mrdirtyrob' timestamp='1339354610' post='1687352'] 12ax7 in the power amp? Is that normal? [/quote] Phase splitter is part of the power amp.
  21. Why does he call everything mahogany?
