  1. seriously? A BC'er posts a photo displaying not only two top quality basses (no matter what you think of the design) that he and his Dad have a common interest in and all we can do is take the piss? Pffft.
  2. I've known Zappa's stuff was scary for a while now. The RNCM have/had some Zappa scores in their library for a few years and I managed to borrow some for a week. Yowza, yowza, yowza!
  3. I just read the interview and I reckon it's all a bit tongue in cheek - see his AC/DC comment…
  4. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1384362590' post='2275723'] £500??? taking the P [/quote] Presumably they'll provide a suitable receptacle though, I'd expect so for that money!
  5. [quote name='bengreen49' timestamp='1384360309' post='2275691'] I killed mine. Plugged the wrong power supply into it... Smoke was pissing out the GND lift switch hole like a little chimney [/quote] [i]Another[/i] similarity with the Sansamp then…
  6. I was bracing myself for bad news after reading the title. Glad to be wrong this time, get well soon Lemmy!
  7. The progress so far - I'm a little bit underwhelmed to be honest... [attachment=147991:2013-11-09 11.24.59.jpg] Apologies for the massive spot - I've had to make some fairly radical dietary changes this week on doctor's orders.
  8. A BDI21 saves the day? What, again?! About the best use of £30 you could think of.

    I've never bothered - if you're using lead solder it melts at a lower temperature than the lead free stuff. I tend to socket ICs though, just to be on the safe side. Preparation is key though; make sure the component is in place before soldering it, that way the iron's not heating it for any longer than it needs to.
  11. Bought some knobs from Nigel - really quick, painless experience. Top knobbing!
  12. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAPXRN556Ok /thread.
  13. Sharp notes? That's one louder innit?
  14. I'll knock you one together for the cost of the parts if you want.
  15. Definitely John Giblin. Such a lyrical player and a great tone too.

    It doesn't look like mush, just an aluminium faceplate with 3 knobs on it in my rack. Sounds like this though... https://soundcloud.com/paul_5/sets/valve-o-d-unit
  17. Finally parting with my Dave Hall pedal after many, many happy sessions with it. I'm streamlining my rig and unfortunately this is just too big for what I need . [attachment=147753:2013-11-06 12.01.02.jpg] Included in the sale is a 12v centre positive PSU. The only issue with this unit is that the headphone output only passes signal to the left channel, other than that everything works as you would expect. [b]withdrawn[/b]

    [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1383685430' post='2267753'] Who would want to pull a speaker jack out whilst under power? [/quote] guitarists?
