Hi folks, Im looking for some advice. My Fender Jazz (99) sounds fab, however, when the neck pickup is selected the volume pot does not totally kill the sound when turned down. She doesnt remain at full volume but dips until about half way then stays constant with about 50% of the vol pot left to rotate. The bridge works as it should, not being the most electronically minded person your ideas would be gratefully received. Cheers Col

An Excellent home for you beloved pedals which also powers them up easily and safely. The whole package consists of [b]1) Diago Showman Pedalboard in Excellent Condition (750mm x 350mm)[/b] Diago Say: 1. Protection. Our hardcase type design protects your gear, but doesn't cost or weigh a ton like a fully flightcased board and case would. Soft cases? So a soft case is going to protect your pedals? Yeah, right, who are you trying to kid? It's the same reason you use a hard case instead of gig bag for your guitar........didn't you?! 2. Quality. Our pedal boards are made from 1/2" eastern plywood, covered in a really attractive and durable black polyweave cloth. Good quality hardware is used throughout, with extra touches such as steel corner strengtheners in the lid and a through-bolted, amp style handle. The guys who put these together have over 20 years experience of building flightcases too. 3. Design. It does what you need it to; nothing more, nothing less. Why do you need an effects loop on the board? OK, let's plug the output of my last pedal in to a box with a jack on it, so that I can plug my amp in to that....what's that all about? More features does not mean better.... 4. Flexibility. Put whatever you like, wherever you like. All of our pedalboards are ideal for holding compact stomp effects, multi-effects, power supplies, wahs, volume pedals, channel switches, A/B boxes.........in fact any combination of these, just so long as it all fits. [b]2) Diago Powerstation with 2 x Deluxe Daisy chain [/b] Diago Say: The Diago Powerstation is the ultimate pedal board power supply. It will power from 1 to 30 pedals without noise or hum. Powering multiple effects pedals has long been a problem, and there are many power supplies available at varying costs, quality, compatibility and performance. Most pedal power supplies are transformer type, linear regulated designs, which are cheap to design and develop, but are expensive to make (and therefore buy), noisier, bigger, heavier and they get much hotter! Cheaper power supplies are usually under-rated, unregulated, poorly filtered designs that polute your guitar's signal with splurges of noise and hum. More expensive power supplies are often engineering marvels, but there really is no need and they cost far too much. The Diago Powerstation uses digital switch mode technology, making it quiet, light, efficient and small, reliably powering your pedals so you can concentrate on making music. This is a great package and steal at £100 + postage (£75 for Showman / £35 for Power Supply) Feel free to ask questions, I'll throw in a batch of top quality patch leads too.

[b]Ashdown Envelope Plus[/b] [b]SOLD SUBJECT TO THE USUAL[/b] It's time to get funky with the Ashdown Envelope Filter. Capable of a wide range of effects from auto-wah through to spaced-out, auto-triggered funky tones, the sweep of the filter can be either up or down with selection of band-pass or high pass filter modes. A peak control is provided to deepen the 'Q' for more extreme effects and the depth of the effect is controlled by the volume of each note as it's played, making this a truly creative and dynamic pedal. The pedal is housed in a durable metal case and features an input level control with a trademark illuminated Ashdown VU meter to allow optimum signal matching from any instrument – active or passive. The pedal also features an output level control – essential for obtaining the perfect balance between the effect and the true bypass mode. In good nick with original box. The onboard VDU light doesnt come on and never did in fact, purchased as ex demo, all features work perfectly. [b]£30 shipped [/b] BARGAIN [b]Biyang AD-7 Delay[/b] The pedal is housed in "A" quality stainless steel chasis which protects its components but it is feather light in weight. Has one input and output for 1/4 plug, and the pedal is can be either powered by a 9Volt battery or a center negative powersupply. The pedal features one stomp footswitch, three control knobs Delay-Time, Blend and Repeat, a two-way switch to select the delay times of 1100s or 600s. The pedal is easy to use and for the price its up on its competitors by miles. [b]£20 shipped[/b] Feel free to ask questions. Paypal accepted but I do ask that fees are shared as they are rather steep otherwise cleared cheque or collection. Cheers Col

The boss tu-2 is a stonkin pedal, chromatic, step down, 2 step down tuning. Its built like a tank too. Should get one for about £50 and you'll never have to think about tuning again. just my humble opinion

Im in the process of learning most of Bryan Adams' back catalogue. Ive just joined an established tribute act. Forgot how good a song writer ol Bryan is. Top tunes, the basslines are cool enough, John Paul Jones it aint but it'll do for now!! Back to the MP3s C

Who on Basschat has the most expensive bass?
CPBass replied to Jonny Walker's topic in General Discussion
My Warwick Fortress Masterman Custom cost me £2250 when I ordered her back in 97. A huge amout of dosh for me at the time, still is in fact. If I put her up for sale now I doubt Id get over £500 for her. I think times will change and her value will increase. I dont mind though, i would never sell her, she is still as fantastic as the day I had her, she's coming on me final journey with me, just in case they need bassmen on the other side. Money means very little when you get the right job done. Warwick pulled out the stops and built a phenomenal musical instrument. C -

Its a very easy bassline, simple but effective. Try and suss it by ear. They arent tuned down so concert pitch and youll be there.

Our Drummer's just quit!! Wonderful timing as usual
CPBass replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in General Discussion
I have to say Ive been lucky with drummers, I'm pretty keen on developing the rhythm section and grooves whilst the other guys battle for the limelight. Most splits Ive been involved with have occured because of "musical differences" between the singer and guitarist or the guitarist is painfully loud or the singer wants to woo the women with "Mustang Sally". Ive always found the "Rhythm Section" camp to be a very fruitful affair (to date) its just the wailers and wangers that Fxxk things up. Ive worked with my mate and drummer for 5 years and just moved from band to band as a rhythm section. Weve recently auditioned for some plum paying gigs so fingers crossed the magic will remain. My previous partner in crime moved to london to seek his fortune and he's done rather well, worked on the Heather Small album and sessioneered for loads of names. Bands are always a pain in the arse but the pain of not gigging is much worse We are all cursed. Good luck with the search OH Murphy Col -
If finances rule the decision Id go for the Ashdown Envelope plus. Its cheap as chips and works really well.
