or you could try 'Greenwoods', they do 'old man' clothes including 'sports jackets' and other things of that nature. They've got a sale on too...

You know Skol (and paulflan), this is NOT helping me to give up GAS!

Why is it that a fretless bass is specified as 'fretless' but fretted basses don't need the same description? Surely the fretted bass is a "Johnny come lately" in the great big scheme of things? I'm confused at the taxonomy (amongst many, many other things).

£1500 should get you a handmade bass to your exacting specifications. Making a '75 Jazz bass clone should be well within the abilities of a decent luthier.

Started my listening, but not had the chance to give them all a decent, focussed listen yet

Sounds like it needs to go back mate, at least it's only your backup though.

ahhh, you see, now I have to put (another) one on my fretless Jazz. Would it be considered 'over the top' to have an HH Jazz?

I bought a knackered Wah pedal from eBay and just rewired that. Robust? I should say so, and it was a darn site cheaper than the plastic Roland/Boss ones.

Dunno, Pro Tools 11 has just been released, so I suppose they have to keep up with the Jonses...

Also, if your guitarist is using a valve amp to overdrive the signal then putting the delay effect in the loop will sound different to putting it in front of the preamp. Well, slightly different anyway...

I've been tempted to make the DAM for a while now. Making a new filter today though, but I might do another dirt box later this week...

Grado's. [/thread] for that sort of budget you could pick up some SR80s or SR125is.

bloody Hacks eh? These are the sae people who initially slated Nirvana's performance at the Reading festival, and then, after Kurt's death it was suddenly the pinnacle of live rock and roll. I saw it on CD the other week. Sycophants.

Music is all about feel and the 'human element', otherwise computers would have taken over it years ago. oh, wait. sh*t...

http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/page29.html Good DI? Check (whisper quiet) and a really flexible tone shaper/overdrive/clean boost too. Oh, and it's also a headphone amp...

DHA VT1 DI EQ http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/page29.html Awesome kit. I've had the Aggi Tone Hammer, Sansamps, MXR M-80 but finally settled on this beast.

yeah man, it's [size=8]PHAT![/size]

Bestest bass for music? Simple blud, a proper low, sick bass wiv a wobble on it. True dat.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1373462717' post='2137856'] Before it's been relic'd it's probably a nice looking bass. After it's been relic'd it's a bass in need of a refinish and should be priced accordingly to account for the extra money that needs to be spent to make it look good again. [/quote] 100% true fact. I've said it before and I'll say it again: If you want a 'reliced' instrument all you need to do is to buy one and gig like a bastard for 30 years. Job done.

ZVEX don't maker them anymore, but these look to do a very similar sort of thing to an arpeggiator. http://media1.zvex.com/seekwah.mov
