  1. I had one of these years ago - upgrade the pickups and you've got yourself a SUPERB machine!

    [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1407454930' post='2520833'] It has mids the connections are down at the bottom right Here's the schematic it's taken from. [url="https://sites.google.com/site/brianthornock/FET-2BSchemRevised.png"]https://sites.google...chemRevised.png[/url] The vero layout misses out the resistor on the supply (current limiting ?) and the bright switch. [/quote] Don't forget to bias those 201s properly - they're fussy buggers when it comes to current...

    If it's going in a 1U then you've got space for a 'Mids' knob, surely…?
  4. I don't mind a bit of Blur every now and then. Grolsch is quite passable too...

    Ouch yet wow!

    .010" on my SG, 0.045" on my basses. Happy days. Loud nights.

  7. [quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1406980939' post='2516406'] When doves cry - Prince [/quote] Nice!
  8. Check the fuses inside of the amp first.
  9. Really made up for you that it's everything you hoped for Pete. Also, PICTURES & SOUND CLIPS!!!
  10. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1406924656' post='2516019'] Anything by snow patrol or coldplay, boring. [/quote] …just fell asleep reading this post.
  11. Shove some 'Living Colour' in there - Doug Wimbish lines make for an interesting gig... Eton Rifles by the Jam is a good one to get your teeth into as well. If your guitarists are up for it then Iron Maiden baselines should keep you on your toes too, left AND right hand workout!
  12. TAPE THE CATCHES DOWN ON YOUR FLIGHT CASES!!!!
  13. My personal favourite is Carol Kaye, and if you can get hold of her books they are well worth checking out. Yolanda Charles, Me'shell N'degeocello and Tal Wilkenfield ain't too shabby either . Brilliant players.
  14. Lateralus and Anaemia - Tool Twins Live - Jaco Pastorius Live After Death - Iron Maiden Sailing the Seas of Cheese - Primus Led Zeppelin II and Houses of the Holy - Led Zeppelin Mingus Ah Um - Charles Mingus Giant Steps (the CD version with alternate takes on) - John Coltrane Post - Björk A, B, C&D - Frank Sidebottom loads of others, but that'll do for now I suppose.
  15. A brilliant example of REALLY working one note. Superb.
  16. My band has 3 static members (two guitarists and the drummer, who can't help not moving about….) so the singer and I always make sure that we entertain, as well as perform. You have to put on a show and create a reputation for being a good band to [i]see[/i] as well as hear; if folks want to listen to music then they turn the radio on, if they've come to see a band then the onus is on delivering the goods visually too.
  17. where are you based Uberkate? I don't mind taking a look.
  18. [quote name='Grissle' timestamp='1406802484' post='2514797'] Is it just me or are those KT88's just so cool looking? Congrats, and well done. [/quote] Nope, they look awesome!
  19. I have it as 4+5+5+3 over 8 I reckon the big tip is in the organ phrasing roughly half way through.
  20. [quote name='Number6' timestamp='1406487369' post='2511881'] The Anthrax t-shirt i have (somewhere) was from this gig at Hammersmith Odeon in 1987.....when i was 15 Anthrax - I Am The Law (Live 1987): [media]http://youtu.be/tCdsO1mBGE4[/media] Now i feel old..... [/quote] YAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!! Scott Ian with hair and Danny Spitz! Classic lineup!
  21. [quote name='SpaceChick' timestamp='1406455267' post='2511525'] He's now told me about the "Great t shirt theft of 1996" where his Pink Floyd at Earls Court t shirt was stolen off his washing line, along with some other tour tshirts! [/quote] That [i]must[/i] have made the local news?!?
  22. [quote name='BILL POSTERS' timestamp='1406751147' post='2514470'] Way I see it, I travel -say- 50 miles round trip, spend half a the day at the weekend hanging round watching bands I wouldnt usually go to see, play free for - again, say - 45 minutes. Hump my gear around, and usually get asked to let someone I dont know use it, cos 'He has to rush off/couldnt bring his own etc' (Usuallymeans what he's got is not as good as the rubbish Stag back line thats usually supplied) Pay for my own beer and a burger. Lets call that £40 out of my pocket in expenses. Now is it a charity I would donate £40 to... ? [/quote] Plus parking….
  23. [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1406748641' post='2514444'] Yep, they are great. I still have my Swiss Levinson Blade Jazz (about 25 years now). Are you the guy that was selling one on Ebay last year up in the North West? In fact there is White Jazz B1Tetra up on the Bay at this moment (about 2 hours left). [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Levinson-Blade-Tetra-Standard-Jazz-Bass-Guitar-Vintage-white/181473477179?_trksid=p2047675.c100011.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107083358%26meid%3D8686426856419869100%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D20140107083358%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D10%26sd%3D141057240756"]http://www.ebay.co.u...%3D141057240756[/url] [/quote] Not me; mine went before then when I got made redundant. Sad, sad day.
